Work In Progress This article is still under construction. It may contain factual errors. See Talk:Upotte!! for current discussions. Content is subject to change. |
Upotte!! is a Japanese anime series based on the manga of the same name by Kitsune Tennouji. It is basically a slice of life show featuring personified versions of various firearms, with the main character being Funco, literally an FN FNC. Submachine Guns are grouped into Elementary School, Assault Rifles are in Middle School, while Battle Rifles are in High School. The odd one in here is Genkoku, the new homeroom teacher for Funco's class.
