Girls’ Frontline is like any other post-apocalyptic sci-fi anime with robots, but with an all-female lead instead. These girls might look cute and harmless, but I guarantee that they can take over the world.
The anime is adapted from a game of the same name. The story starts with a military accident that eradicated most of the human population resulting in many uninhabitable lands. The situation further worsens in 2062 when a group of robots and artificial intelligence rebels and kills their human masters.
The movement is led by robots called T-Dolls used exclusively for military combat and labor. These ‘dolls’ became a necessity and an integral part of life after the military accident that wiped out most of humankind.
The upcoming sci-fi anime Girls’ Frontline revealed a thrilling PV for its January 2022 premiere. The video also previews the anime’s ending theme, ‘HORIZON’ by TEAM SHACHI.
Since the rebellion by Sangvis Ferri T-Dolls, another company producing them called Griffin & Kruger is hired to subdue and eliminate the rebels. In the game, the player is the newly appointed commander of a top-class AR team of G&K, but in the anime, the commander is a character named Gentiane.
The PV introduces the members of the AR Team consisting of T-Dolls, all with an impeccable skill-set and unique personalities. The best part about the story is how these are all robots but still have human traits and feelings.
Moreover, the franchise also revealed a key visual for the anime featuring the protagonists and the antagonists. At the bottom is the G&K AR Team and at the top with an evil-ish background are the Sangvis Ferri T-Dolls.

I love how this anime has all-female characters in both the protagonists and antagonists. This helps in eradicating the toxic trend of reducing female characters as mere romantic interest or fan service.
I am honestly so excited for this show as it has some capable and badass protagonists and antagonists, and I am having a crisis here choosing between whom I like more.
