gunsmith cats full anime on youtube
>In the dangerous suburbs of Chicago, skilled bounty hunters Irene "Rally" Vincent and "Minnie" May Hopkins run Gunsmith Cats, a firearms store of questionable legality. One day, Bill Collins, an agent for the Chicago branch of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, blackmails Rally and May into working with him on a case. The stakes are high, but Rally’s gunmanship and May’s knowledge of explosives are unmatched. As Rally and May unravel the secrets of the case, the two will need to use guns and grenades while being faster, stronger, and better than everyone else in order to stay alive.
>>26140>>25950I love that vibe. Anything that has to do with world of mercenaries, assassins, guns (or swords) for hire, gangsters. Out of anime, Jormundgand and Gangsta kind of managed to capture it too. In video games, there is Shadowrun series, Vampire: The Masquerade, sections of Fallout 2. Hotline Miami also kind of touches on it, as does Far Cry 2. Kane and Lynch? Theres gotta be more video games like that, can think of any though. Movies, surprisingly not many come to mind as well, lot of them feature underworld, but its more of a backdrop on which action and drama plays out, they dont really explore it. John Wick I guess does.
>>26145>Far Cry 2that one is amusing because the game is supposed to be set in 2009 but because it's african nation still technologically behind everything is still cold war era. just fun to think while people are starting to use iphones and ipads in the western world, here's you. still taking assassination contracts on your beep beep 1991 Vodafone cellphone with dusty buttons and a built in halo kitty wallpaper (don't forget the snake game) by conntecting it to the only cell tower in the area.
that and killing other mercenaries with your rusty eastern block era AKs and portuguese colonial era grenades unused since 1979.
>>25950>>26145>>26141you should try johnny rocket fingers, it has enough of that vibe, it got crime-core. edge-core. ghetto core. mafia core. bountyhunter core. guns core, action core. 90s era core, unforgiving grey city core. core core.
and it's a newground game core.
newground used to have a lot of crime vibe animations. only on newground you could see a stick animation of sonic and rose tearing up albanian thugs with guns to the sound of Superwaha.swf
>>26200i love john woo, i'll call it that from now, but Exploitation works too.
not sure about hardboiled, the black and white noir genre has taken over that word
>>26201>>26200>>26203Hardboiled is generally a sister-genre to noir, with a private detective protagonist solving a mystery related to prohibition-era organized crime. Stuff we're talking about tends to borrow elements from it, like being about freelancers and often having a conspiracy to uncover, but it's definitely outside that very specific subgenre.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HardboiledExploitation and grindhouse are more about graphic/explicit content and being edgy, not just being about the "seedy underbelly" of society. The point is that they're provocative in an attempt to grab attention. Like clickbait. It's more about the spectacle than the vibes.
"John Woo" implies a pretty specific visual style and action choreography that's usually intentionally paying homage to John Woo. It's often included in modern action stuff but it's more related to the style of action than the story or setting.
None of these things are mutually exclusive, but it's more like they're adjacent to or a component of this kind of story.
>>26202Not everything needs to be remade/updated/continued. If somebody wanted more of this type of story they should come up with something original that fits the present better.
