There is always something about depresssing anime that I like...
Which means I was not disappointed by watching all 13 episodes of Gunslinger Girl in between working these past two days. The series was one of the saddest, most depressing things I have ever seen. And it was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend it.
The basic premise of it is that young girls with life-threatening hospital cases are taken to a government agency where they are given machine implants to make them stronger and faster, then they are brainwashed and given conditioning to grow to protect their supervisor - whom they are paired with - at all costs. Their training turns them into deadly assassins, doing the government's dirty work.
All in all, then, it's obvious why it may seem a bit sad to see girls from the ages of 8-12 killing things blindly, but they bring in many issues over the episodes, including how some of the girls came to the agency. One of the girls' parents tried to run her over with a car and abandoned her, leaving her for the government to take her and turn into a killing machine.
13 episodes, 3 DVD box set... I want it! But I watched the whole thing on this great site called Veoh, so I'm not too upset about not having a hard copy.
Oh - the intro animation enough made me cry. How's that for depressing?
