I found Pumpkin Scissors to be like an episodic/slice of life anime but done military style! :P

Very weird lol

[NoirTheElitist]

Just watched episode 1.
Well...that was some annoying opening but, on the other hand, the endind was somehow cute and pointless.
Not much to say besides

how tall can that guy be o.O

and that it doesnt look very promising, but we'll see..it's still too soon to tell.

Episodes 1-2

Well I have watched this before and I know this is a good show ^^

Well I when I first time watched this I thought Randel Oland is a freaking super soldier that wants to fight a lot more (during that opening, when he is sitting next to the wall). Well there my prediction went wrong.

Well after a few minutes. When he opened that lantern I started to like this show. I'm a bit wondering about that K-3 shell. Does our armies actually have something similar?

Well in episode 2 there was a tank again. But I wonder why they made crosshair to be same as crosshair in sniper rifle scopes? I think it should be something like this:

Well anyway those tanks look a lot like French tanks used in World War II and soldiers appear to be germans and area is France or England but it is good they are mixed like that so it just doesn't make it resemble World War II.

And last thing about Randel Oland's height, it is not so usual sometimes meet really tall people. Here is a bit reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Väinö_Myllyrinne and here lived 2 other about same height guys too ;)

And Opening song ain't so bad. For those who wonder what Gespenst Jäger means, I think correct translation would be: Phantom Hunter

Episodes 3-4

So digging up a tunnel huh? Well guess it is a kind normal thing after war to be fixed.

Seems like Alice has alot authority when it is needed. And Randel Oland doesn't seem to be so stupid as he appears. Do patients want the doctors suffer same disease as they're suffering?

Well anyway A point blank range shooting with a cannon doesn't seem good idea to me. I have read a lot stories about Anti Tank Rifles and how they broke bones of the users. Randel is really tough guy... probably anyone slimmer would break bones instantly when fired with that gun. Well anyway there seems to be a conspiracy behind the scenes... A reload system that is not yet invented, starts to get interesting =)

Episodes 5-6

I would get angry too if I had worked for many years in company and only thing they offer with kick in the butt is a worthless good. Well luckily we have here social security.

Abandoning a baby too... Pretty sad things keep piling up in this show. Well lets hope it gets a bit more happy in future too

Episode 7-8

Well nothing special here really. Semi-automatic rifles... and snowy mountain.
I just remembered how annoying that Schultz guy is. Probably, it is because the voice actor sounds annoying.

Episodes 9-10

So Pumpkin Scissors name has a meaning. Exists to cut apart thick pumpkin mask that covers up evil guys.

Well anyway Randel just keeps busting up tanks...

it was awesome, though i watched it some time ago...
for some reason i really like pseudo historic stuff, in particular stuff from roughly 1850 to 1950

and there was of course the whole noblesse oblige plaidoyer in the end which was very much to my liking. i still wish they d make a second season...


and i still think the name doesnt make any sense

Episodes 11-12

Undercover manuscript. Well guess really not any country would really accept modifying human beings to become weapons.
