Jormungand - Aura - May 14, 2016

[Image: 73280.jpg]

Quote:Brought up in a conflict-ridden environment, child soldier Jonathan "Jonah" Mar hates weapons and those who deal them. But when Koko Hekmatyar, an international arms dealer, takes on Jonah as one of her bodyguards, he has little choice but to take up arms. Along with Koko's other bodyguards, composed mostly of former special-ops soldiers, Jonah is now tasked with protecting Koko and her overly idealistic goal of world peace from the countless dangers that come from her line of work.

Jormungand follows Koko, Jonah, and the rest of crew as they travel the world selling weapons under the international shipping company HCLI. As Koko's work is illegal under international law, she is forced to constantly sidestep both local and international authorities while doing business with armies, private militaries, and militias. With the CIA always hot on her trail, and assassins around every corner, Jonah and the crew must guard Koko and her dream of world peace with their lives or die trying.

Holy shit, that Anime's good. Action packed, funny and the characters are all epic. Why haven't I watched it before?

If you liked this and haven't seen Black Lagoon go watch it, it's even better.

I liked jormungand more than black lagoon imo. I love the sense of oppressive-Ness you get from watching it. Jonah is a bad ass haha

Ive recommended this anime a lot, and yes black Lagoon is sort of like this anime, both deal with guns and shooting. Black Lagoon's plot isn't nearly as solid though.

Such an awesome Anime, I don't know why it isn't ranked higher on MAL's popularity list... I'll watch Black Lagoon next, but if you say that the plot nearly isn't as solid as the one from Jormungand, than I don't understand its current rating.

Both plots were meh but at least Jormungand had a point to it. Black Lagoon doesn't really have an ending that ties in with the begging.
