Appleseed XIII is an direct-to-video anime "television" series based on the manga of the same name by Masamune Shirow (creator of Ghost in the Shell, New Dominion Tank Police, and Black Magic M-66). While Appleseed has previously been adapted as two CGI films in 2004 and 2008 as well as a 1988 OVA, XIII remains separate from either adaptation, featuring a new storyline using Shirow's characters, settings and themes. The series was released on June 6, 2011 (via streaming, theatrical showings and DVD/BluRay release), and is slated to run for thirteen episodes and two feature-length films, each cut together from one half of the series.
The following firearms are used in the anime series Appleseed XIII:
Handguns
Unidentified Colt M1911 Variant
For the first time since the 1988 OVA, Deunan Knute's sidearm of choice is a M1911 pistol. This particular model resembles the Colt MK IV Series 70 (the variant she used in both the manga and the original OVA), but features a full length guide rod, and appears to have some damage to the right side of the slide where it meets the frame.
SIG-Sauer P220
One of the Argonauts tries to pull a SIG-Sauer P220 pistol on a LandMate, with predictable results.
Beretta 92FS
One of the police KOTUS robots in episode 1 is armed with a Beretta 92FS.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
Most of the terrorists/Argonauts in the first episode use Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 submachine guns.
IMI Uzi
One of the human police officers in episode 1 is armed with an IMI Uzi.
Seburo J9
One of the police KOTUS robots in episode 1 is seen using a Seburo J9, a fiction 9mm submachine gun that originally appeared in the original Appleseed manga as a mainstay of the ES.W.A.T. weapons loadout.
