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.

The following firearms were seen in the anime television series Upotte!!:

Assault Rifles

FN FNC

Funco is the personification of the FN FNC Assault Rifle. Hilariously, Genkoku first referred to her as the 'girl with the thong', a reference to the fact FN FNC's came with skeleton stocks.

Some things are just plain taboo. Like talking about a young girl's underwear choice. Death may occur if said young girl is the personification of an assault rifle.

M16A4

Ichiroku is the personification of the M16A4 Assault Rifle.

L85A1

Eru is the personification of the L85A1. She adores Faru and often jams, which is unfortunately true as the British and the Jamaicans (A major user of the L85A1 since 1992) often encountered jamming issues as a major source of discontent for the rifle before Heckler & Koch was able to improve the rifle to bring it the L85A2 standard.

SIG SG 550

Sig is the personification of the SIG SG 550; smart yet somewhat of a ditz.

Steyr AUG

Steyr (name unconfirmed), the personified version of the Steyr AUG, can be seen on the range next to Sig.

Steyr AUG - 5.56x45mm
Considering the SIG 550's name, I'm willing to bet her name is quite obvious right now.

Armalite AR-18

An Armalite AR-18 can be seen on the shooting range next to Eru and Steyr.

Battle Rifles

FN FAL
