Pumpkin Scissors

The storyline was pretty cool, and is mostly a conspiracy theory in itself. It’s about secrets within the military that during peaceful times come to hunt the people of the world they live in. It’s pretty much about what happens after the war and what we normally don’t see living in the United States since we haven’t had a battle happen on our land in such a long time. It can open the eyes on just how senseless some people can get and how crazy war veterans can be without medical help after being trained to be killers. It also cautions against genetic manipulation of people to become what we call super soldiers because they can turn against us or have no reason for being after the war. The show starts out pretty light hearted and then gets darker but still keeps its comedy throughout. There are some fillers, but nothing to big.
The characters are fun and enjoyable, even the ones that only have a small role to play. I love Randel’s character and all the small jokes they do about his size. And I mean they play on everything, even a couple fun pieces in the hospital ward. I’m still not sure why he sleeps under a bridge though. The Lieutenant is crazy, I don’t know exactly where she came from but she is really off. Her sense of justice is really creepy and doesn’t really go exactly her way most of the time. Can’t anyone tell her to calm down? There is not much too actually talk about with the others because they are more or less comedy.
The artwork is rather nice. It’s not to out of date or odd looking which makes it feel really cool. The only real time it bugs me is when the lantern is opened and things go off into that blue glow. Sometimes the glow is not that bright and sometimes it’s so bright that it covers the character. The opening is rather simple but just doesn’t feel like it fits exactly. There are things within it that are not talked about in the show and made me a little confused. The ending is a simple run animation with a dog almost like Wolf’s Rain.
The music is pretty good; the ending actually is fun loving and cool. I would listen to that one mostly for the fun of it though I don’t know if it stands alone at the end. I actually didn’t want to watch the Japanese dub because the English dub was actually really good. The only problem I had was some side characters that seemed to have strange accents though it didn’t actually say where they were from.

Pumpkin Scissors is an action, comedy and war type anime. The title may seems weird for some of you. Pumpkin Scissors, according to Alice L. Malvin, in war relief efforts they will face a lot of trials in their paths like the rind of the pumpkin and their unit the Section III will be the scissors to cut through the layers of the pumpkin, to deliver the justice to the people.
The first time I watch Pumpkin Scissors, I immediately have interest in watching it more. I really amaze with 2nd Lieutenant, Alice L. Malvin. She's not only a noble, but also a part of Imperial Army State Section III, Pumpkin Scissors. Alice is really a tough girl even if she encounters a lot dangerous people, she still fight with all her might. Together with her colleagues Warrant Officer Machs, Warrant Officer Oreldo, Sergeant Major Lili Stecchin, Corporal Randel Oland and Mercury, they will end these unstoppable killings and bring back the country in peace and order.

The big guy takes on like more than a dozen tanks not to mention he goes into a berserk mode that makes him look like a demon of "blue light" and takes out the tanks with one bigass 13mm anti- tank "pistol" yes a freakin hand cannon! Also eventually the girl pulls out a huge ass sword and totally beasts a bunch of wierd looking guys. Overall I like this anime alot cause its kinda like Trigun and Fullmetal alchemist allin one also when they mention the war they;re bssically talking about WW1 after the treaty of versaille and the struggles germany's people had only in an alterrnative universe.
