Upotte!! English Sub & Dub

About Upotte!!

Looking for background on Upotte!! (うぽって!!)? This action and comedy series by Xebec (2012) starts out like this. What the story covers: Kiss kiss, bang bang! The arms race takes on a startling new development when the arms come with heads, legs and very feminine bodies attached!

Beyond that: Yes, at Seishou Academy every girl is literally a lethal weapon, and they're all gunning for the top shot at getting their own personal serviceman! Needless to say, it's going to be difficult for newly recruited human instructor Genkoku to adjust to working with a living arsenal of high caliber cuties with tricky names like FNC (Funko) M 16A4 (Ichiroku) L85A1 (Eru) and SG. Especially since many have hair triggers and there's no bulletproof vest that can stop a really determined coed!

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. FNC (Iori Nomizu) and M16A4 (Misuzu Togashi) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. At 10 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
