Upotte!! (2012)

Upotte!! is not just any anime detailing guns, the guns themselves live to tell about it! Upotte!! follows the story of anthropomorphized guns FNC, M16A4, SIG SG 550, and L85A1 (Yes, that's their actual names!) and their adventures in Seishou Academy. The school is divided into three different groups, Sub-machine guns (Elementary School), Assault Rifles (Middle-School), and Battle Rifles (High-school). Their goal in the school is to come out as the most useful weapon there is. Everything in their life proceeds as normal, but sometimes things get a teensy out of control when a human suddenly comes along and have to take responsibility of not just one rifle, but a whole class, bringing along no gun experience whatsoever! This media follows through their life in Seishou Academy and the (mis)adventures the human and guns have together.

The following weapons were used in the anime series Upotte!!:


Pistols

Glock 26

What appears to be a Glock 26 is depicted in "Sing! Compete!" when the narrator explains the use of red dot sights.

A picture of an Ingram MAC-10 is seen in "Wash and Scrub!" when MP explains why M-10 suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence after a quick-fire non-stop tirade about a classmate. This is a reference to the extremely high rate-of-fire on some MAC-10 variants, which could peak at around 1,200 RPM (though it's mentioned M-10 herself fires at 1,090 RPM).

Colt M16A4

16 (Ichiroku in Japanese) is the personification of the Colt M16A4 Assault Rifle, first appearing in "Grip and Hold!". Examples of the M16A4 are first seen in "Sing! Compete!". What appears to be M16A4s are seen in a flashback in "Take it! Hurry!". In "Graze it! Beat it!", the chamber of 16's M16A4 becomes fouled due to bad powder, causing the weapon to jam with each round fired, forcing her to use the forward assist after every shot and complain that she's not supposed to be a bolt action rifle.

Colt M4A1

A Colt M4A1 is depicted in "Wash and Scrub!" in the hands of a British SAS soldier during an oral history narration of the L85A1. It has a holographic sight with a magnifying scope.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Colt M4A1 with 6 position collapsible stock - 5.56x45mm

A British SAS soldier holding a M4A1 by one hand. The scaling on the weapon is way off being far too large, meaning that in order for the soldier to be able to grip the weapon the pistol grip has been shrunk relative to the rest of the rifle. It was drawn rather to reasonable scale in the manga.

Enfield L85A1

L is the personification of the L85A1, first appearing in "Grip and Hold!". She adores Fal 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. The L85A1 appears in "Wash and Scrub!" during a narrator explanation on how the rifle was made.

FN FNC

Funco is the personification of the FN FNC Assault Rifle, first appearing in "Grip and Hold!". Hilariously, Genkoku first referred to her as the 'girl with the thong', a reference to the fact FN FNC's came with skeleton stocks. The FNC Funco wields appears to be based on the civilian semi-auto version, since it has a sling mount instead of the bayonet lug under the barrel.

SIG SG 550

Sig is the personification of the SIG SG 550; smart yet somewhat of a ditz. She first appears with the rifle in "Grip and Hold!". She is depicted as being the most accurate of the main four assault rifles, able to effectively engage targets at ranges that would normally be associated with the larger-caliber battle rifles.

Steyr AUG

Aug is the personified version of the Steyr AUG; she wears glasses like Sar, representing the AUG's built-in optics. She first uses it in "Graze it! Beat it!!", changing hairstyles by removing the short wig to her original long hair to indicate the use of a standard barrel-based AUG. Crunchyroll's subs consistently mis-indentify the weapon's country of origin as Australia, contrary to the narrator's correct mentioning of Austria as the AUG's country of origin. It's also mentioned that the AUG can mount a heavy barrel and become a Squad Automatic Weapon (likely referring to the AUG HBAR), however the standard-length AUG is shown when this is being explained, likely an oversight. When in this persona, Aug's confidence increases to the point where she becomes almost overbearing.

T91 Carbine

The T91 carbine is seen in "Sing! Compete!" in Curly's gun shop. The T91 is first used by Tei in "Graze it! Beat it!!". Her stock (panties) gets shot off by 16 during their wargame, but is recovered afterwards. Her trademark six-pigtail hairstyle is likely a reference to the insignia of the 205th Armory, T91's manufacturer.

Royal Small Arms Factory L1A1 SLR

Funco's elder sister Fal is based off the FN FAL, more specifically the British L1A1 SLR variant. She is described as being beautiful and smart. Fal appears in "Grip and Hold!". The rifle appears in "Wash and Scrub!" when Fal explains the origin of the L1A1. Even if Fal is depicted as being based on the British L1A1 model (so semi-automatic only), while confronting her younger sister at the fountain in "Go for it! Pass it!" she is seen firing a burst in fully automatic fire, much like the original Belgian model. This is apparently a reference to a field-modification that Australian troops did to their L1A1s during the Vietnam War to lock their weapons in full-auto.

Heckler & Koch G3A3

G3 is the Heckler & Koch G3A3. She has several younger sisters in middle and elementary school (i.e. the HK33 and MP5 series'). She first appears in "Grip and Hold!". The rest of the H&K family, seen in the manga, consists of HK33E, G41, and G36 in middle school, HK53 (due to being MP5-sized) MP5A2, MP5SD, MP5K, UMP, and MP7A1 in elementary school, and HK32 who attends Red Steel High due to her caliber. 53 appears in "Wash and Scrub!", and (along with G3 and MP) UMP, MP5K, MP7A1, and four others who are off-screen appear in "Behold! Laugh!", however none of their guns are seen in the show. It's most likely that MP5SD doesn't talk (or doesn't talk much, at least), with HK32 presumibly being the one not present in "Behold! Laugh!".

Springfield M14

16's elder sister 14 (Ichiyon in Japanese) is based off the M14. She first appears in "Grip and Hold!". A few M14s are seen in "Sing! Compete!". 14's accuracy when firing her rifle in full auto is non-existant; 16 even claims that the spread of her rounds is roughly 10 meters. This is a reference to the M14 being notoriously difficult to control in full-auto due to the heavy recoil of its 7.62x51mm ammo.
