Girls' Frontline: Difference between revisions
'''''Girls' Frontline''''' is a 2022 sci-fi anime, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and animated by Asahi Production. It is based on the manga adaptation of the mobile game "Girls' Frontline", both created by Chinese game studio MICA Team. Due to controversies between MICA and Yostar (the would-be publisher of the game), it is known as '''''Dolls' Frontline''''' in Japan.
'''''Girls' Frontline''''' is a 2022 sci-fi anime, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and animated by Asahi Production; it is based on the mobile game of the same name created by MICA Team.
The story takes place in the 2060s, following a major ecological disaster and then World War III, which left the entire world in shambles. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and robotics technology, coupled with a lack of human manpower, humanoid androids called "Dolls" have been pressed into many areas of service, including combat. In this role, they are referred to as "Tactical Dolls", or "T-Dolls" for short.
The story takes place in the 2060s, following a series of wars and ecological disasters that have left much of the world in shambles; with the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and robotics technology (coupled with a noticeable lack of human manpower), androids called "Dolls" have been pressed into service in many areas, combat in particular - in this role, they are referred to as "Tactical Dolls", or "T-Dolls" for short. Taking place in eastern Europe, the plot centers around Griffin & Kryuger, a Doll-using PMC tasked with combatting the forces of Sangvis Ferri (another PMC whose AI went rogue). Uniquely, each of G&K's T-Dolls uses, is named after, and to some extent personifies a particular real-world firearm; accordingly, the 4 main characters are members of the [[AR]] Team.
Taking place somewhere in Eastern Europe, the plot centers around Griffin & Kryuger: a T-Doll PMC lead by human commanders. They are tasked with combatting the forces of Sangvis Ferri, another PMC whose Dolls went rogue and massacred their human leaders and are now plotting to take over the world. Unlike in the mobile game that has a lone human Commander of unknown name and gender commanding the Tactical Dolls, the manga and anime have the female commander "Gentiane" serving as main human leader of the T-Dolls, alongside other Griffin commanders.
Uniquely, each T-Doll in the game and anime uses, is named after, and to some extent personifies a particular real-world firearm. Accordingly, the four main characters of Girls' Frontline are 16LAB's Anti-Rain "[[AR]]" Team (M4A1, ST AR-15, M4 SOPMOD II, and M16A1).

Girls' Frontline is a 2022 sci-fi anime, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and animated by Asahi Production. It is based on the manga adaptation of the mobile game "Girls' Frontline", both created by Chinese game studio MICA Team. Due to controversies between MICA and Yostar (the would-be publisher of the game), it is known as Dolls' Frontline in Japan.
The story takes place in the 2060s, following a major ecological disaster and then World War III, which left the entire world in shambles. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and robotics technology, coupled with a lack of human manpower, humanoid androids called "Dolls" have been pressed into many areas of service, including combat. In this role, they are referred to as "Tactical Dolls", or "T-Dolls" for short.
Taking place somewhere in Eastern Europe, the plot centers around Griffin & Kryuger: a T-Doll PMC lead by human commanders. They are tasked with combatting the forces of Sangvis Ferri, another PMC whose Dolls went rogue and massacred their human leaders and are now plotting to take over the world. Unlike in the mobile game that has a lone human Commander of unknown name and gender commanding the Tactical Dolls, the manga and anime have the female commander "Gentiane" serving as main human leader of the T-Dolls, alongside other Griffin commanders.
Uniquely, each T-Doll in the game and anime uses, is named after, and to some extent personifies a particular real-world firearm. Accordingly, the four main characters of Girls' Frontline are 16LAB's Anti-Rain "AR" Team (M4A1, ST AR-15, M4 SOPMOD II, and M16A1).
The following weapons were used in the anime series Girls' Frontline:
The senior member of the AR Team, M16A1, appears along with her Colt M16A1.

This was released before the one above, and seems to represent a slightly earlier iteration of the show's planned art style; notable changes since this image was released include the characters all being scaled somewhat smaller relative to their respective rifles, as well as various minor costume changes - these designs appear to more closely follow the original game's, while the later images take some liberties.Error creating thumbnail: File missingM16 with her...

The Heckler & Koch HK416 is used by the T-Doll 416. M16 somehow has the same carbine in "THEMESSAGE01" in a continuity error.

The AR Team's designated wild card/loose cannon M4 SOPMOD II appears in the anime with her M4A1 SOPMOD Block II carbine.

Spike's Tactical 10th Anniversary AR-15
The final member of the AR Team, ST AR-15, is armed with Spike's Tactical 10th Anniversary AR-15. She uses it both with and without a suppressor, depending on the field conditions. Unlike the real version which is a civilian semi-automatic only rifle, ST AR-15's rifle is capable of both full-auto and semi-auto.
The T-Doll SR-3MP uses an SR-3MP Vikhr; notably, Girls' Frontline marks the first known media appearance of this particular variant.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingSR-3MP Vikhr with red-dot sight, suppressor, and upside-down stock - 9x39mmError creating thumbnail: File missingSR-3MP with her carbine as she moves with Kawasaki in "THEKINDLING01"; note the non-standard short suppressor with pink bands, and the upside-down stock. The latter is an optional way to mount a stock on the SR-3MP, though why she's using it this way is unclear; the main point of doing this is to keep the stock out of the way when using a bulky helmet, and SR-3MP doesn't ever wear one, so it's likely just set up this way because it looks interesting.
Fictional Gatling-style gun emplacements seemingly based on General Dynamics M197 Vulcans are seen in "THE MESSAGE02", when Intruder uses them in a trap.
AR-15 fires a SIG-Sauer P226R at the shooting range in "THE MESSAGE01". G&K commander Berezovich Kryuger hands Gentiane Camus a P226R in "THEKINDLING01". AR-15 is one of the few T-Dolls that are authorized to carry sidearms, as well as their main rifle (most T-Dolls carry only their namesake weapon, as well as something like a knife).
In certain operations, SOP II's M4A1 SOPMOD Block II is fitted with an M203A1 Grenade Launcher.
Knight's Armament M203A1 - 40x46mmAn officially-released promo image of M4 SOPMOD II with the M203 grenade launcher attached to her rifle. Note that in the mobile game, SOPMOD's official art and in-game chibi sprites never show her rifle with a M203 equipped, even though her main skill is firing a grenade launcher. Hence both the manga and anime correct this by giving SOPMOD a launcher whenever she launches grenades.Error creating thumbnail: File missingSOP II aims her carbine at the Agent T-Dolls near the end of "THE SEED" in a sneak attack.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA shot of SOP II aiming her carbine before firing the M203A1.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe M203A1 fired at armored intruders in "THE KINDLING03".Error creating thumbnail: File missingSOP II engages a bunch of Vespid T-Dolls by firing her UBGL in "COMET01".
Sangvis Ferri's soldiers and ringleaders use a variety of futuristic small arms; all seemingly fictional (with the exception of Intruder's automated guns mentioned above). They are included here for the sake of completeness, and possible future identification.
Take note that in the future world of Girls' Frontline, Sangvis-like weaponry are actually commonplace among top-tier military forces. Griffin Dolls on the other hand use outdated (yet effective) firearms from the 20th and early 21st Centuries.
Vespid T-Doll
Vespid Dolls are the most common units of Sangvis Ferri. They are armed with rapid-fire energy rifles.
