Darwin's Game (January 3 - March 20, 2020).

Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!


Darwin's Game (ダーウィンズゲーム) is a 2020 anime series produced by Nexus, based on FLIPFLOPs's 2012 manga series of the same name. It follows Kaname Sudo, a 17-year-old high school student, after he accepts a friend's invitation to download a mobile game called Darwin's Game, before realizing that the game gives players unique abilities (known as Sigils) and then offers them rewards to kill each other.

The following weapons were used in the anime series Darwin's Game:


Handguns

Norinco Type 54

Shuka Karino is briefly seen handling a Norinco Type 54, presumably taken from a slain opponent, in "First Game". Several more are seen in the hands of various players in "Ignition" and "Fireworks", and in those of Eighth Clan members in "Hardness", "Eighth" (which is, in spite of the name, the seventh episode), "Old One", and "Sunset Ravens".

An unnamed player runs with his Type 54 during the Shibuya Treasure Hunt; in a sense, this is a screencap of a screencap, since this shot is from inside one of Darwin's Game's spectator rooms.

As is this one, since this player is being observed through a hotel security camera.

A group of players prepare to make their next move, one clutching a Type 54. The fact that they're referred to namelessly as "players" should tell you plenty about how this turns out for them.

Nambu Model 60

The player dressed as Banda uses a Nambu Model 60 he stole from a police officer against Kaname Sudo in "First Game". Another is used by an ill-fated policeman in "Old One".

Banda brandishes his Nambu; his odd appearance here is due to his Sigil, which allows him to turn invisible.

A close-up shot of the revolver's muzzle.

Banda fires; note the lack of any blast coming from between the cylinder and barrel. More concerning, however, is the presence of fire coming from the back of the cylinder, which would imply that primers are being punctured.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
The revolver recoils, giving a good view of the trigger guard.

And an even better view once the smoke cloud clears.

Another view of Banda firing; again, note the rather worrying burst of flames coming out the back of the cylinder.

Banda looks on at his handiwork, a bit more satisfied than he really ought to be.

A group of police officers, mere moments before Wang punishes them for trying to raid a gang compound with nothing but two ballistic shields and a single .38 revolver. Or possibly for trying to cut through the middle of a steel door with an angle grinder.

Colt M1911A1

The in-game gacha system's icon for a firearm is a Colt M1911A1; as seen below, this does not necessarily correspond to the weapon actually acquired.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Kaname discovers a fair amount of success with his first use of the gacha store, though one can't help but wonder what sort of weapon would come from a 3-star roll. The M1911 in this icon has a few details (like slide serrations and grip screws), though it lacks some more important bits (like a safety, slide release, or magazine release), and appears to have been drawn with a swinging trigger like a Para-Ordnance LDA.

Beretta 92FS

The actual firearm that Kaname Sudo is given in "First Game" is a Beretta 92FS; he later uses it (or rather, several others attained via his Sigil ability) against Shuka; he creates and uses more of them during "Ignition" and "Fireworks", primarily using them to shoot out security cameras, and yet another in his battle with Danjo in "Heads Up".

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Kaname receives his not-a-1911 within a few seconds of rolling it, and just as promptly declares "I hate this game." Note the complete lack of a logo on the grips, or markings on the slide.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Running from Shuka, Kaname unwittingly uses his Sigil, and pulls an identical Beretta from thin air.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Wisely choosing not to question it, he turns around and fires.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Having gotten a moment to take cover, Kaname contradicts the above statement and begins to question it.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Another angle, showing that the safety is correctly off, and the hammer is also-appropriately cocked.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Deep in thought, Kaname apparently forgets that his Beretta is neither chrome-plated nor nearly a foot long.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
He soon devises a plan, tying a 92FS (likely the same one) to a pipe with a string around the trigger, and using it as a distraction.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
And also to shoot out the warehouse's lighting cables.

Having been outplayed, Shuka stares down the barrel of Kaname's Beretta.

Ditto, but from Kagame's perspective.

Submachine Guns

Ingram MAC-10

Two Gyro Heads (and a third player of unspecified affiliation) are seen with Ingram MAC-10s in "Ignition"; several Eighth Clan members also use them in "Hardness", "Old One", and "Sunset Ravens", and Rein uses one briefly in "Heads Up". Their size is depicted rather inconsistently, ranging from being more or less accurate to the size of a small assault rifle between shots.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
A Gyro Head runs with his MAC-10; as with the Type 54, this is a shot of the spectator room, rather than the actual fight.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Another frame from the same scene, showing that the SMG's receiver appears to have been drawn too long.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
The reason for this is quickly made apparent; nearly all the MAC-10s in the show are fired like this, rather than using a strap foregrip or holding the pistol grip with both hands as one might reasonably expect. He also keeps the stock folded at all times, as does every MAC-10-wielding character in Darwin's Game.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
The Gyro Head shows off his war face as he fires his charging handle-less MAC.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
He and another Gyro Head fire their submachine guns at Shuka...
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
...though they ultimately prove no match for her Sigil.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Another spectator shot of a player firing a MAC-10; note that this one appears to have been drawn the correct size, probably since it's being fired one-handed.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
This one, in the hands of an Eighth Clan member, was not.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Well, at least not in that shot; the weapon changes size multiple times throughout the hotel raid scene.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Now it's somewhere in between.

Sa vz. 61 Škorpion

Kaname uses a total of 3 Sa vz. 61 Skorpions against Danjo in "Heads Up", though he ultimately only fires one; Rein mentions the weapon by name, with Ryuuji claiming that its presence was the result of a trip to an illegal arms dealer. Notably, he fires far more rounds out of it than the magazine could reasonably fit; this could be handwaved by his Sigil ability, however.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Sa vz. 61 Škorpion - .32 ACP
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Kaname fires his first vz. 61. If you're wondering why he isn't using his other hand...
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
...this is why. This knife (and, for that matter, this Škorpion) seemingly just disappear later in this scene, though again, his weapon-creating Sigil could be at work.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Another view of him forcing Danjo into cover; note that the charging handle never moves in this scene, and the weapon never ejects any casings. In fact, practically none of the show's guns do.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
It also wasn't drawn with sights, though the extremely bright, tracer-like bullets it fires could help with that somewhat.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Kaname fires as he retreats.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Another view, and the first shot in this section where the Škorpion isn't firing.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Having turned the tables, Kaname brandishes a pair of vz. 61s at Danjo.

Rifles

Remington 700PSS

Rein Kashiwagi's main weapon is a Remington 700PSS. She carries it around in a large case on her back, first drawing and firing it in "Fireworks". Another Remington is wielded by an unnamed sniper in "Aquarium", though it is ultimately never fired.

Machine Guns

RPD

Ryuuji Maesaka's primary weapon is an RPD, with both Maesaka and his gun initially appearing in "Ignition". Sudo uses his Sigil to create two others during "Fireworks", using them against Ichirou Hiiragi (with more being used during "Aquarium" and "Heads Up"); he also notably uses his Sigil to create overpressure ammunition for the weapon, to aid in dealing with Hiiragi's armor.

Grenades

M67 Hand Grenade

Both Rein and Sudo use M67 Hand Grenades throughout "Fireworks" (hence the episode's name); like the M84s, they're a purchasable item in the in-game shop, and are depicted as being somewhat underpowered (releasing no apparent shrapnel), though they're also somewhat oddly painted black. Several more are used by the Eighth Clan, starting in "Hardness", yet more are used by Hiiragi in "Eighth", and another is thrown by Sudo in "Heads Up".

M84 Stun Grenade

Rein and Sudo use M84 Stun Grenades in "Ignition" and "Fireworks" (the latter also using one in "Heads Up"), while Shuka uses one in "Eighth"; they're apparently a rather popular buyable item in the in-game shop. They're depicted more as simple light-producing devices than as actual stun grenades; in one noteworthy scene, Kaname sets one off in his hand, somehow not mangling or burning it in the process.

RGD-33 Stick Grenade

Sudo uses several RGD-33 Stick Grenades in "Heads Up" while fighting Danjo, presumably acquired (or rather, encountered, since all the grenades he uses are summoned via his Sigil) from the illegal arms dealer that Maesaka put him in touch with.

Unknown Tank

During his explanation of his reasons for joining Darwin's Game in "Fragile", Danjou is seen facing standing in front of a presently-unidentified tank.
