![]() Will unlocking the secret of Yūko’s gruesome death finally free her? Or will her sudden close association with a mortal have even stranger repercussions on both of their existences?

Unable to remember how she died and trapped in the grey land between life and death, Yūko latches onto Teiichi Niiya, a freshman who can inexplicably see her, and together they and the other unsuspecting members of the club begin to unravel the many dark mysteries that surround Seikyou. Perhaps it’s not so surprising then, that among Seikyou’s many school clubs is one for students interested in “paranormal investigations.” What might raise more than a few hairs, however, is that the founder of the club is the ghost herself. But the horrifying tale and the legends of the ghostly haunting that followed live on to this day.

I waded through three episodes, and there is a hint that not all the women/warships are content with their lives, but then it was back to the fanservice. ![]() Many loving shots reinforce the focus, with equally skimpy characterization. In their female forms, the women have chosen to dress in skimpy clothing that makes no sense at all, except for the obvious intention of luring eyeballs to the screen. The series picks up as the human forces have divided into two warring factions, each with warring women/warships facing off, evidently continually. It's set during an alternative World War II, as oceans of the world come under attack by alien invaders, known as Sirens, prompting human forces to fight back by fusing women with warships. Inspired by a popular Chinese video game, the anime adaptation features absolutely beautiful crashing waves and spectacular battles at sea all credit to Tensho's Bibury Animation Studio.

Like many other Extendeds, Juzo fought in a recent war, and developed a fear-inspiring reputation as a deadly killer. He himself functions as most humans do, except that his physical head has been replaced by a huge revolver.Īs we learn over the first two episodes, this now causes complications for Juzo, since he cannot fire the gun himself, but needs an independent Gun Slave Unit to do so. ![]() Suffering from bouts of amnesia, he doesn't recall, specifically, why he joined the ranks of cyborgs known as "Extendeds." In a dark, near-future city, he solves problems related to fellow Extendeds, no matter the cause or fault involved. Inui Juzo smokes, walks and talks like a weary private detective out of classic film noir. What if you woke up and found a gun installed on the top of your body, instead of your head?īased on a manga series by Karasuma Tasuku, first published in 2014, and produced by Madhouse, the anime adaptation revolves around a man who becomes a revolver.
