Ok, well I'm not sure if you guys are into it or not but I found a kick ass new anime called Highschool of the Dead. It has lots of awesome gun play, and is very detailed about the firearms and weapons that they use as there is a military/gun buff in the group.



The basic premise of the show consists of Z-day happening and revolving around a group of Japanese Highschool kids that are dealing with the zombie outbreak. If you like guns, girls, and seeing zombies get their heads bashed in or blown into tiny pieces then you really NEED to watch this new series. There are a total of 7 episodes out right now and I highly recommend watching, as it is full of awesomeness. I am on episode 5 right now and found it quite funny as the main character just got a revolver and said something to the effect of "don't put your finger on the trigger until you are ready to shoot."



Here are some pics









and yes that is a M14 with a Aimpoint, magpul, surefire M900, and a bayonet

I watched all seven episodes today, and can't wait for the next one.  It is full of win.  It's a great fantasy combination of realism and total anime WTF, and by the 6th episode all of the girls are nearly naked.

It was there, if you remember he refers to it as a M1A1 super match. However it hasn't seen any action as of yet like the SR25 did.

I believe the streaming site that you are using has a time limit, you are only allowed to watch so many minutes before you have to wait a set time limit to start watching again.  In other words try again, you should be alright.

They went total Matrix style in ep 8... wtf? Busujima's tits would have to have been moving at 3000fps+? They'd have popped right off.

and once again I'm reminded how little I pay attention to character names. Who's that Dr. on House? The one with the limp?

Are you complaining about bending reality in Anime?  

Just finished watching all 8 online.   I dig them.   The people who made this Anime can get firearms right but Hollywood can not.

Bending reality is one thing, but other than the premise of zombies this show is trying to be pretty realistic. The one through her legs was ok and maybe going under her boobs would have been fine, but flopping all around like that was a little over the limit. lol



Oh, and there was a SERIOUS flaw in the firearm usage in episode 8! Komuro was using a red dot on the shotgun with only 1 eye! BOTH EYES should have been open!

Subs, dubs usually come out a lot later...

And they usually suck. A lot of emotion and intensity is lost in translation. Subs forever!!

Long been a fan of the manga. So far, the anime has been mostly true to the manga (which is a lot more gory than the anime so far). So, it gets a two thumbs up from me.
