Alright lets try this! One chapter everyday until we die.>The Social Welfare agency, a government sponsored corporation is in the business for saving orphaned or abandoned children who are terminally ill or injured beyond the point of saving.>Using cybernetic implants, the Agency uses a process called 'conditioning' to turn orphaned children into emotionless killing machines with hardly any memories, no human comfort and no free will.>Follow the life of Henrietta, a girl who barely survived a brutal attack that killed her family and who was saved and repaired by the Social Welfare Agency. Despite her conditioning and programming, Henrietta still has the heart of a young girl. She has not completely forgotten how to love, yet the very emotion is contrary to her training and programming. Can the Gunslinger Girl survive?Chapter 61 to 66https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/290867283Chapter 67 to 70https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/290987224Chapter 71 to 77https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/291076693Chapter 78 to 84https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/291251759Chapter 85https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/291404419Chapter 86 to 90https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/291429442Chapter 91 to 96>>291528672
Chapter end!Note I checked how many left and there are only 2 chapters left. I think tomorrow might be the grand finale and since I'll have most of the day free, I could ensure the thread lives and get proper time to comment with everyone before we consider the "Valiant Must Fall" dump.
>>291656535Thank you for posting.
>>291656513Heh, way to put fire to an urban legend. Probably even intentionally to have plausible deniability.
>>291656513Pretty fucking weird thing to do honestly. How would that make him feel better?
>>291656535Not dumping the epilogue and the hope chapter?
>>291658398Afaik those also come along
>>291658314It's not about him feeling better, but about him getting over her and the uncertainty of her death in order to live his own lifeOr something
would love if everything was animated one day while I guess some didn't like how the manga ended or that direction of it I dunno would appreciate it getting the treatment
>>291659562Let's hope. We've been getting a lot of strange remakes lately
>>291658314Gives him the idea that his dead (still alive but actually dying anyway) crush's dream is still alive so he can move on, even though it's a complete lie and bullshit because leukemia patients can't donate organs.
Thanks for posting OP.>>291656295https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b44-5M4e9nII recognise this piece from somewhere, I think it might have been used in Princess Tutu?
>>291656909I don't even know if it's that uncommon for people to form bonds with their organ donors prior to the actual donation and fulfilling minor requests with regards to their loved ones. Elizabetha probably wouldn't have minded donating her organs and would have been delighted to know they ended up in another dancer. >>291659562>would love if everything was animated one dayI kind of got bored listenling to the audio drama, because a lot of it was just slow talking childeren (actually adult women pretending to be childeren) conversing about mundane things and slightly retreading the plot of the manga. >>291659637It's not an transparent lie at all if the osteosarcoma diagnosis is all that was shared with him. Also it gives Petra closure and allows her to show off her regained ability to dance to someone who genuinly cares.
>>291661368The lie lies in her organs being transplanted because cancer patients in general can't donate organs, and only become eligible in certain cases where they survive and don't relapse after a long while. I doubt Sandro (or Aida) really thought it through, but Alexei probably doesn't really know how it works and he'd rather believe someone does carry her hopes and dreams.
>>291656513It may be a lie, but at least it brought the guy some measure of closure.
>>291661368how long is the audio drama? I've only read the manga
>>291656020*slaps*
>>291656513LOL WHATFan translators strike again. Don't get me wrong on the one side I'm grateful I got to read this like 15 years ago or whatever, but they really were just making shit up
>>291662788>>291656513
>>291662788>do you understand what I'm saying?Do you?
>>291656535You have 3 or 4 more chapters, depending on how you count it. You can do 98 and 99+Epilogue tomorrow if you want a big one, and then Hope on Sunday if you want to stretch it over the weekend.
>>291656045That line feels like it shouldn't work but I feel like it should too.
>>291659562Everyone lives and becomes dancers or musicians for the travelling cyborg show. Happy end!
>>291663620It's yet another callback. Remember in Lady Rosso where Sandro's mentor called herself the Moor when she heard Petra's name? The Moor lost. The Ballerina (Sandro) chose Petrushka.
>>291663694>Remember in Lady Rosso where Sandro's mentor called herself the Moor when she heard Petra's name?I haven't seen the performance, but according to Wikipedia, Petrushka loses and then haunts and curses the puppeteer. Disney has not yet adapted the story, so it's one of those older stories meant to stress that the world is a cruel unfair place, rather than that the good guys always win. >>291662557It was posted in the last thread >>291614243>>291661987Not sure what standard procedures are regarding organ transplants, but common sense tells me that if you're confident enough to believe amputating a proffesional dancer's leg is worth it to stop the spead of cancer, then you're going to believe there's someone on a waiting list somewhere that can benefit from a heart or maybe even a lung or (part of a) liver some skingrafts etc. a lot of organs don't even last all that long in the recipients body because of immune responses.
>>291659562Fanfic is the best you're gonna get
Lizaveta was hotter than Petrushka imo
>>291664736I'm sure Henrietta looked better pre-rape as well.
>>291664230You can find the full performance by the Bolshoi Ballet (the same Ballet Liza was learning at) on youtube, and itself is a throwback to the tradition of puppet theater in Russia, which interestingly enough, was likely imported from Italy.
>>291656061nicecute>>291656476>goes in person to Petra's exbfactually extremely nice of Sandro
>>291662788I don't get how you can even mistranslate it like this. 2000s MTL plus edit out anything weird and make it grammatical? But then they make up shit like with the height on the next page.
>>291662788>>291662831I maintain that these shitty translations are why so many people absolutely HATED the ending back when it happened
>>291656535Thank you for posting, OP.
>>291664736I hated that they didn't include Petrushka
>>291669422Cute!
>>291669277Bianca spotted!
>>291669265>He wanted to have more chapters about the other Gen 1 cyborgs.Damn editor not allowing this, needs correction...
Big ass scope with complicated optics, did they actually exist?Also Aida sure came far in his art when you compare this to the later parts in Gunslinger Girl.
>>291669856Yes, could be an old model of clip-on thermal or night vision scope, or a prism attachment used to dial greater elevation onto the scope for very long distance shots. Modern versions of the former include AN/PVS-30 and AN/PAS-13. A good example of the latter is the tacomHQ Charlie TARAC.
>>291669856The mechanism of that optic is definitely real, but the large objective lens limits its use in military situations. It collects a lot of light, but it would also reflect light in a way that would be obvious to counter-snipers. Probably saw it in a 90's gun tech catalogue for some niche long-range hunting scope.
>>291669956Yeah, that's what I thought. Though for sport hunting, it's useless in a forest, but maybe sniping big game on the savannah?
>>291670053Depends on the forest. It's definitely designed for a static position. But yes, it's likely based on an incredibly niche high-magnification sighting system that never took off, but was exactly the sort of weird gun fodder 90's firearm magazines in Japan would have loved.
>>291670266SNIFFA
>>291669623>We coulda seen Beatrice interacting with Triela and Angela before dying>We coulda seen Sylvia starting to lose herself the way Angela and Henrietta did>We coulda seen Chiara do literally anythingAt least we got more Elsa through Madhouse
>>291670282Is this proto Henrietta?
>>291671432yep, doujin version
>>291671786Thanks for sharing.
>>291671786>Not even Henrietta is safe from the gay extended barrel P90
In the end what was the light before we land?
Triela chapter!
Today we end Gunslinger Girl!
Op's boss ended him first.
OP died before the surviving cyborgs did
Today...
Yes, it has to be today! Life can be a joke at times.
Nothing like telling your current lover about your exes
>>291669828ELSA!!
Welp that is unexpected!
>>291674509>>291674518>>291674552>>291674571>>291674581>>291674600>>291674610Fuck. All of these and others are so great. Saved.
>>291674581Also, where are they from? Those titles are making me curious.
Next one!
Gen 2 cyborgs still hard at work
They finally caught up with him
Nice, I really like his tech
>>291678823;-;
Oh so he might get his wish after all
>>291674760All the Delgados we met along the way >>291678851I remember the fan translation having Mario say “he meant a lot to me” on this page
>>291679510“The link is not yet severed”
>>291679270Even with something to break the fall I find it hard to believe a she's just going to walk off a 3 story jump like that.
>>291679986Yeah. That's what the version I read said too. Or was that quote on another page?
Interesting offer, well not like he got much left
Oh so this is Italian Lex Luthor? Makes sense
>>291679459okay but whose swimmers are we using here
He's so done!
Surprised they are getting less murdery. Still given Jean's behavior, he may soon wish to be dead.
I like the metaphor, the plants are like the girls and they can't take them all along to the sea. I'm not crying, you're crying!
>>291680310Oh SHIT
>>291680629Jean is stone cold, man. I don't think he ever cried in the manga did he?
>>291680438That's a cute Rico face
>>291680508One last look at Enrica.>>291680532Jean really is too kind.. ;-;
>>291680629>>291680678I'm crying.... who knew of all people Jean would have character development. I will never forget these characters and this story. Fuck...
>>291680826Right? Its just beautiful. Also Epilogue time
Girls at sea!
Damn this is so sad!
Well at least she seemed happy.Not sure if Henrietta really wanted to go like that, going crazy and suiciding with her handler but I guess since he wouldn't reciprocate her love, it was the only way. Triela went out with a bang, but I also think she wanted to live and watch them at the ship too.
Poor Petra, still she seems happy
>>291680954>>291680968Noooooooo
Damn, she outlived them all
Noooooooooooooooooo!
>>291680886reminds me of Jormungand, just that thankfully these girls won't be fighting anymore
Now comes the extra epilogue to the epilogue
>>291681064Arrrghhhhhhh
The next page was also empty. So here goes, LAST CHAPTER: HOPE
>>291680081In that translation, that sentence is said at least twice.
Triela Jr!
>>291680310I dunno why but Rico has some of the funniest pages in this manga to me. The one where she casually manhandles that gun smuggler and starts knocking his teeth out still makes me chuckle>>291680463CGDCT story of Gunslinger girl but it's the surviving girls on the ship as they reach the end of their lifespan 1 by 1
>>291681175>CGDCT story of Gunslinger girl but iNo matter how comedic and heartwarming it was, it would definitely break me. And I'd read every page with glee. Someone make it happen!
>>291680163In the fan TL “maybe you can make a deal through the grave”
Interesting economic lesson
>>291679459Give back Triela's anime.
>>291681232This glasses nerd would get shanked and left for dead in the desert.
>>291681232Yeah but then that's not just 5 dollars there's other expenses, what' you gonna just drag 5 gallons of water into the desert? Which desert? Why are they trapped?Dumb imaginary student
>>291681163>Californiawhy
Is he...us, anon?
>>291681314I hate that technically this is an accurate prediction of the future because Meta glasses exist now
>>291681297I would love to discuss that, I like when the author states stuff like this but doesn't preach it.
>>291681314Triela Jr., no! Your data is being harvested!
>>291680532In the fan TL Jean just says something like “I am done here”. Man, it really was a shit TL.
>>291681384Shady fella
Anyone recognizes him or is he a new character?
Honestly the way he talks makes him look more and more shady
>>291681447Here's a page that clashes with current events
>>291681419Müller is a German name. Hillshire parallel perhaps?
>>291681447>entering a strange man's room alonecome on Speranza you're smarter than this
>>291681574Breh
>>291681570W-what if that's how Triela got kidnapped for the snuff film? Also just how shady must it sound to go as an ugly bastard, walk up to a cute jc and tell her you want to "record a movie" with her as main model?
>>291681543He IS German. You should probably imagine him speaking in a light German accent. Speranza also probably speaks English affected by her Italian home language and her mother's accent. >>291681514That was a frat house though, not campus dorms. Perfectly safe.
Nooo don't go! You'll end up like Triela!
>>291681626She kinda looks like Claes here
Now Speranza, you have to eat ALL the PUMPKINS!
>>291681626Nonsense! Speranza is a proper JD lady!
>>291681514kek>>291681677>she sits on the couchNOOOOOO
Isn't that how most porn start?>>291681679BASED
>>291681650She's definitely packing.
>>291681694It's weird seeing Kickstarter referenced, even if indirectly, in a manga. Especially one that's a bit on the older side at this point.
>>291681694Jesus christ dude if Mama or Mario heard this you'd be getting shot
Getting Batman Beyond vibes
So shady!
>>291681777That's kind of sad.
Oh c'mon don't tell me she'll fall for that! She is so getting into a snuff movie at this rate
>>291681798We need to kill this guy
Some voice of reason
>>291681856I told you it was safe.
Cute!
She got Triela's smile
>>291681955She does!
Not a fan of Jean's new look
>>291681997He's turned into a dude from an 80's porno
Oh c'mon Jean, I'm sure the agency can afford to donate way more.Still nice to see a softer side to him. And he kept Rico's pic with him!
>>291681997Jean got married?!
>>291681997>Ring on the fingerOh, he totally married Private Aprea lmao.
What's up with all German characters dating the JD characters? First it was Victor and Triela, and now Speranza and this Müller guy, kek>>291682087Maybe to the carabineri girl. Reminds me of his lost love.
Seems she inherited Triela's talent
>>291682162had to do a double-take
>>291682118Smugass lolicon he's my enemy. Vendetta.
>>291682184>they made it a documentary Can they just release government secrets like that?>>291682233It should've been us dammit
THE END!I want to thank all the anon who contributed their time to this Gunslinger Girl dump, particularly those who kept the thread alive while I was out being a wagie, and the interesting discussions we had during these months!Will keep dumping the last pages but they're only separators and the cover so thread's open for discussion. I'll be having several hours free in case anyone wants to discuss the chapters, ideas or what you'd change in the story if anything.I really like this work, this is my first time reading it complete from end to end as I had only watched season 1 anime many years ago and really enjoyed it, but never saw the whole story. I like this end, despite all the dark and fucked up stuff that happened, and the tragic fates of some heroines, there's still hope in the world. And I like how Yu Aida kept that message, this "faint ray of light" at the end.
>>291682242How would they stop him? They've run out of murder lolis.
>>291682269Thanks for all your hard work, OP.
What would you have thought if they didn't include this epilogue and just ended the story with Claes last words about her vision? I imagine when that one was released, it was a very somber ending.Do you think Yu Aida made this epilogue like this as a response or already had it in the plans? Any anon read this while it was still being released?
>>291682269Thanks once again for the dump! Gunslinger Girl really is a favorite of mine, and I'm glad to own the full physical omnibus collection.>>291682242This is more than 20 years after the fact at a minimum.
>>291682269Once again, thank you for posting, OP!!!!!!!
>>291682312Ending it there would have been super grim but that would also have been appropriate for the bitterness and regret that permeated so many of the characters. The epilogues are nice though.>>291682242I figure this sort of thing would make some official heads roll.
>>291682275Triela Jr. only had access to her mother's side of the story so i reckon there wasn't much details about the agency in the picture beyond "anti-terro secret agents".
>>291682184... OH RIGHT the coronerI thought Roberta died offscreen
Thanks for the dump, OP. This was a title I'd never gotten around to trying, even after lo, these many years. I did drift off a bit during the interminable Croce flashback, fearing that it would do this usual thing of going from episodic to a plot which drags the whole thing down, but it pulled through very nicely in the end.
>>291682269Not the biggest fan of this epilogue with Triela's daughter, I get that it's there so the ending's not a complete downer but it seems like a forced way to go about it
And its over>>291682355>>291682362Glad you enjoyed, anon! Definitely a masterpiece in writing
>>291682269Thanks for dump. I had finished the manga either and now i have. All this time i didn't even know Henrietta died.
>>291682550No, she died on-screen shortly after she resuscitated Triela. It's her body that was never recovered since they had to leave it behind.
>>291682838Yeah, figured I should have changed the OP's intro. Still sad about her death>>291682809How would you have liked it to go?>>291682559My pleasure!
>>291682233>Smugass loliconB-but anon, he is literally us!
>>291682550She's in the audience dummy
>>291682809Me too, it seems weirdly removed from everything else>no girls slinging guns>>291680968We should've got Sandro's adventures as a stepdad
>>291682880I don't actually have much of a better idea, but the whole situation of >Hey I froze Triela's eggs can you carry them to term for mejust felt odd to me is all. I get that Aida did spend time setting this up but it still seems like a bit of a stretch to me.
>>291682831Thanks for uploading it.
>>291681175>CGDCT This would break me.
Thanks for this daily Signore OP it was great. Haven't posted in the threads at all since the earlier volumes but enjoyed the ride.Ultimately it would have been nice to get more focus on the Gen 1 girls and their handlers rather than Sandro and Pet, but they were alright, and it was cool to se more of the support staff working behind the scenes in the agency.>This epilogue chapterSame as >>291682809 said. And it's a disappointment considering how well other parts of the story are written, my guess is some editor interference. It feels out of place, far removed form everything else the story was doing. And the Manga did not need this kind of conclusion, everything was already set up with the ideas of the SWA tech being used for medicine, and its members regaining their honor. In fact this whole idea of continuing the bloodline in >>291679510 goes against the Manga's core ideas around non-familial bonds, and creating a better future via actions. >>291680954>Rico spends her last days on the ocean with JeanAfter the trauma of shooting her handler I'm glad she gets a peaceful end. Overall it seems like all the girls went out in a way they'd be happy with. Good thing it was Claes left behind at the end because I'm not sure the others would handle it as well.Thanks again to Signore OP and all the SWAnons who posted in the threads.
>>291683262My pleasure anon, hopefully you stick around for the Valiant Must Fall dump
>>291682269Thanks for the dump OP, I enjoyed lurking the threads.Never read or watched the series but i really liked the story with Claes.
>>291681626>giving Speranza wineSome things never change
>>291680886
>>291681198>>291683136Have it be a 4koma. Rico is the dorky boke to Claes' tsukkomi and we get to see more of the gen 2s personalities as both older sisters but also kouhai to the gen 1s.>>291683262I agree with you that I don't really mind Sandra and Petra but it felt like Aida coulda cut some of the focus from them to flesh out the Gen 1s a little more.
>>291681064So long, my girl.
>>291682047>Academy Award for best documentary featureGlorified participation award. Not one of the big boy awards.
>>291683552She truly is Triela's daughter
Thanks OP. I also don't really like the final epilogue. It felt very out of place. Overall the story is really good though so I think of it as a doujin of it rather than a part of canon. I like to imagine that one day the manga will get a full, faithful adaptation by Madhouse or someone.
>>291681997>Jean's new lookMaybe I'm reading too much in it, don't know, but this look reminds me a certain '70 style you could find in many italian "poliziotteschi" movies, and actor Maurizio Merli.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurizio_Merlihttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poliziotteschi
>>291684016Hopefully, its a really good story. What studio would be the best to make it?
>>291684232Give the IP to Mamoru Oshii
>>291684232SHAFT
>>291684328This. And Kamiyama Kenji for the screenplay, as he has a great sense of rhythm
>>291684421Nah, studio nut is way better at it
...And when I feel like I can feel once againLet me stay a whileSoak it in a whileIf we can hold on we can fix what is wrongBuy a little timeFor this head of mineHaven for us
>>291684796Please anon, I'm gonna cry again
>>291684857Be like Jean and cryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTxoH_5CnhM
>>291684989Its going to rain today
>>291681997That mustache is tragic. Giulia or whoever his wife is has my condolences.
>>291685791True, he went from hot to... whatever that is
>>291680717All Rico faces are cute
>>291682809Also not a huge fan of the epilogue, but the other 99 chapters make up for it. I'd rather have gotten more with the new generation of cyborgs or ended it even earlier with the few remaining cyborgs aboard the ship before they died.
>>291685791>>291685912He sorta looks like his dad now, with the mustache. It's funny; despite their differences Jean ended up resembling him more in the end.
This was a fun ride. Thanks a lot OP! I missed a lot of details on my first read that you guys picked up on. I never noticed Jean got married again for example.
>>291686533>Jean got married againFirst time, you mean.
>>291686645Ouch... ;-;
>>291686645Oh....
>>291681694>>291681757There's actually no reference to Kickstarter in the raws, just saying there's services where viewers can donate.
>>291687882Huh weird translation then
>>291682269I cry every time.Give the side characters more room to breathe, show more of the cyborg dorm life. We did get invested into the main Fratello as we saw their stories unfold, but when Bea picked up the missile there was not as much emotional payoff as there could've been if we'd known her better. Same thing for when Marco and background Fratellos got close to drowning, Marco's arc was over and the rest you hardly know.Also, retelling Triela's background story basically three (or 4?) times. While she's best girl, that could've been handled better.Getting a least a panel of what Ashiq and Emma were up to afterwards would've been neat.>>291681997>>291684065Jean just took over the look of his late father, damn tsundere son.
How the fuck did a story about cyborg girls shooting bad guys end up like this ;-;
>>291679495Triela/Hirscher doujin by confeitokobo. can't find full scans of it anywhere
>>291688944Damn... that looks nice. I want to read it.

>>291682269Thank you for dumping anon, Gunslinger Girl is one of my favourites and a true classic I bought a Beretta 92FS because of it
>>291689506YesAnd there was a really awful youtube video "review" that made the rounds for it a few months back, it was nothing but the videomaker bitching about the level of violence

>>291690225First panel goes something like>I’ve heard that a selfish, ego-driven bastard has managed to get his hands on my eggs--storing them without my permission--and has entrusted them, along with a suicide note, to a woman who happens to have feelings for him.
>>291690494He should have just taken responsibility like a man and impregnated Triela himself.
>>291689538Reminds me of the Youjo Senki reporter who marries Tanya and makes a documentary about the mysterious demon of the rhine
>>291689411>Honestly, that line is a great way out of getting immediately zippedI kind of wish he was given more of a spotlight to know more about him. He could have been like Darth Sidious, always behind the scenes plotting
>>291689378Indeed! A shame he didn't do it himself
How did you find Girls Frontline compared to Gunslinger Girl?
>>291691775What could have been
ntr epilogue brb ripping up my manga volumes
>>291691596I played it shortly after its original global release right up until the last story event. The team lead of the company which developed GF, Yuzhong aka KING CHONG is a huge GSGfag and pushed for the collab to happen, and a lot of influences from GF made it into GSG. It likes to suggest the sort of tension and drama that happens in GSG, but because the great majority of the girls in GF (excluding some story characters who you don't get to actually control) are all civilian gynoids repurposed for security duties, they don't get a lot of the direct tension of having once been actual human beings in their stories-- drama happens where they get hurt, destroyed, go through various robot-related troubles a la Blade Runner, and (what is ultimately just artificially intelligent) emotional trauma, its lightly framed as the player character having a sort of weird, strong affection for his armed roombas and toasters that isn't actually all that important compared to the big politics of the world's most important people of the setting, who you are just sort of a pawn for. So I guess the high-level politics and conspiracies get a lot more focus than they do in GSG, and while some of your Tactical Dolls do have some "real" shit going on with them, the day-to-day, lighthearted stories about antics with them tend to be the main experience-- the game is a gacha where you want to fill the pokedex with all the cute gun girls, after all, so it isn't all just a series of tragedy and suffering. Very few people or dolls actually die or get fucked over permanently, so while the scope is this grand thing about a conspiracy happening behind the scenes of the neo-soviet union, the stakes feel a bit less high and its not as depressing. The first game set in the universe, Bakery Girl, is pretty much of the same depressing tone as GSG is.The girls are cute, setting is neat, so if you like like what you see, it might be worth trying. The gacha is very F2P friendly, at least.
In a prior daily dump, some other Anon posted this at the end. I hope he is not offended by my reposting it.last minute gun wiz notes:Cyborg's kill counts:A confirmed kill is verified by being an enemy killed on panel, a probable happens off panel and likely as a direct result of a cyborg's actions, and an enemy is injured if they are attacked but not killed on panel and it is not probable they died or they were taken into custody.Henrietta: 15 confirmed kills, 1 probable kill, 1 enemy injuredRico: 15 confirmed kills, 4 probable kills, 5 enemies injuredTriela: 18 confirmed kills, 0 probable kills, 5 enemies injuredClaes: 2 confirmed kills, 0 probable kills, 2 enemies injuredAngelica: 1 confirmed kill, 1 probable kill, 1 enemy injuredPetra: 1 confirmed kill, 1 probable kill, 8 enemies injuredTop 5 reoccurring firearms (Each chapter a character held a weapon was counted as 1 instance.

>>291695046The tiny leaping Rico is cute.
>>291694938>>291694930Neat, thanks for reposting this
>>291695977>Elsa(You) could have saved her anon...
Thanks for the storytime OP.
Thanks for the storytime. I didn't really read along but seeing threads pop up on the catalogue got me to marathon the manga a couple months back.
>>291682162Müller you fucking SPAWNCAMPER
>>291682118>>291682162>>291682184>all these theatrics for the fucking best documentary awardThe PLEASE WRAP IT UP sign was flashing hard
>>291696779Glad you enjoyed, anon! Intending to make the Valiant Must Fall thread now. Will be getting the manga and then posting in a bit
>>291696038*I* should have been her handler... not that Lauro ASSHOLE!
My slim daughter wife...
>>291697147Looking forward to it anon!
>>291694930No issue at all, as a matter of fact I love stats and charts so thank you, anon! Its so cool when anon takes the time to make stuff like this
>>291698318Alright thread's up, hop in, anon! >>291698837
>>291679459What the fuck kinda thinking is that? Well it might lead to more cute Trielas in the future so I guess it's okay.
>>291681198She's got Google glasses aaah!
>>291681997Still got a picture on the desk.
>>291699624The SWA likely won't allow Triela to get pregnant to begin with, assuming they can even get pregnant with all the artificial organs and hormonal regulation, since it will take them out of service for a decent part of their operational life. Not to mention they had no time either since they had to deal with Giacomo.
>>291700583I think they don't since pregnancy would slow them down as killers
Hey, OP, thanks for the bumping. It was my 1st time reading and I really liked. I didn't even know Italian terrorism was a thing and I still think that if the series was set in Balkans (like it was mentioned in the own manga) or Ireland it would be more interesting. But for sure, Italian cities and cars are a better option.
>>291679459How did Hillshire even manage to secretly get Triela's ova. Like Marco had to physically threaten one of the doctors to let him bring Angie her dog.>>291693054>Is carrying another woman's child in your womb the ultimate form of cuckoldry?
>>291702784I guess they made her sleep during one of her medical sessions
>>291702569I wish she got more of a role in the story
>>291698249Such beautiful hair!
does anyone have that dumb MS paint image with "triela -> tight brown robopussy" from the last storytime of this in 2022?
Is it just me or are threads dropping off faster than usual today?>>291704940This one?
>>291705630yes thank you
>>291705630Afaik there was a plebbit purge so probably more traffic came inAlso really cool edit, had never seen it.>>291702784>HillshireWhy is he such a fag and didn't impregnate Triela himself?
>>291705903>Why is he such a fag and didn't impregnate Triela himself?Yeah. It's clear she wanted his german cock.
>>291706849Same with Petra
>>291705903Several handlers have vaguely paternal feelings towards their cyborgs, but he is the one example who 100% saw Triela as his daughter. His request to Roberta is a bit less weird when you interpret it as him asking her for grandkids.
>>291708026The things parents will do for grandkids...
>>291682269Thank you for the storytime, OP.
>>291682269Thanks for posting OP, I too had only watched the first season before this. Epilogue was a bit odd but overall I really enjoyed the manga.I'd love to see a slice of life spinoff manga set in the agency headquarters, even if it was just a 4koma. I feel like it'd be super easy to come up with chapters.>Some of the handlers are in the gym struggling to bench-press, they look over and see Beatrice benching a motorcycle.>Rico and Henrietta accidentally break one of Claes' flower vases, they try (and fail) to pin it on someone else.>Angie making various types of pasta.>The other Gen1 girls discover Triela's hidden wine stash...
Of the handlers, who had the best fate in the end? Sandro is off building a family or whatever in some farmstead in northern Europe, so he has my vote
>>291710590Sandro basically didn't suffer at all besides his self-inflicted guilt from not intervening in Petrushka's pre-cyborg suicide attempt, got to be with her to the end and gave himself closure for both Petrushka and his mommy mentor.Marco also got off relatively light but we don't really know whether he got his old job, his relationship or his good vision back.Jean basically lost everything but he got over it, and doesn't seem to be troubled being a lifelong glowie.
>>291708108>my daughter died fighting terrorists so I harvested her eggs and mailed them to a coworkerMost normal SWA retirement plan.Still, it's probably the closest thing to a happy ending Hillshire could imagine. Triela was never going to get a normal life, so he settled for some part of her getting one.
>>291711251I don't think Hilshire planned on them dying but after seeing Giacomo's handiwork for himself, decided it was best to have some insurance in case he or Triela did. After all, if they did survive, he could just ask Triela himself whether she would like someone to surrogate her a child.
>>291712338They got a happy ending>>291710590To me Hillshire. Got Triela in the end
Thanks for the dump, OP. I would have had more Triela as the main character, she was the one with the most plot out of all the cyborgs. Also I kind of wanted to watch Elsa's pov instead of Petra
Thanks for dumping OP, was nice to re-read after the first storytime>>291680310Rico :D>>291680532>impressive amount of staminaoh is that what you like about her>>291680629>>291680678Fucking sobbing>>291680954NOOOOOOO>>291681997Not beating the softy allegations
