How does /k/ feel about Golgo 13?
I understand /a/ is the board for anime, but seeing as the show is about an assassin who regularly uses guns, I was wondering if there was any discussion that could be had from it.
THIS IS NOW THE /AK/ THREAD
PRAY FOR YOUUUUUUUUU
PRAY FOR YOU
Its fun from a kind of James Bond/Jack Reacher perspective, but its also fucking stupid. He can literally do no wrong, most smart, strongest, fastest, biggest dick (serious), best shot. If that's what you're into fine and it is good for a while, but IMO is the sort of thing that gets tired after only a few episodes.

Same. It's okay but the premise doesn't last very long in terms of keeping your attention.

The episode where he has to assassinate a violin was amazing.

The Queen Bee movie is much better because even though he's a fucking grim reaper he still gets injured when outnumbered.
But yeah sometimes the Nobel prize winning neuroscientist surgeon linguist Olympic athlete porn star operator meme can get kind of tiring.

There is one where a lonely woman becomes infatuated with Golgo and starts following him around. Eventually she ends up witnessing him shoot somebody. She swears she won't tell anybody but he kills her anyway. Kinda hard to get attached to a character like that, although I do like that they don't try to make it "he kills people but HE'S ACTUALLY A GOOD PERSON!!!!!" Although he sometimes kills other criminals, the majority of the people he kills are completely innocent. There just isn't much reason to root for him.

Are these from some manga or something?

No

So he's basically a Mary Sue?
I have a hard time identifying them at times.

Are the people who write him just incapable of empathy? I got sick of watching him because I couldn't get emotionally invested in the story.
