So, they're the types of guns, not the guns of specific figures (the way that TouRabu characters are the swords of specific figures)?

If they were connected to specific American Revolution figures, I'd say get the Hamilton fandom into this, but it seems more like it'd appeal to... a different crowd.

Still. Shouta Aoi. Probably not interested, even with him, but like. I'm so into him recently <3

I see Yankee doodles, but I don't know if I'd call them dandy

If I was an an American Revolution expert and this game had an official English version online, I would play it in part to critique the historical inaccuracies.

At first I was like, "England and France? A different take on Hetalia?" Then I lol'd. Oh, Japan.

As a fan of the American Revolutionary period, I immediately clicked the link before even fully reading what it said. Interesting, I never would have guessed that it would be chosen to do a "things as people" game.

I like the theme but I was expecting a historical Upotte and not some bishie fest.

Seriously, this. The guy in red easily passes as a fanart version of Hetalia!England... And he happens to be a British musket. How unoriginal can you be with your designs? Anime hyper

Maybe there will be a few female characters too? Who knows.

Yes, it's good that they are types of guns, not specific guns.

Well,isn't this amazing. American Revolutionary guns transformed into handsome men. Well,I'd always hoped I'd get a Japanese version of the American Revolution and right now,this is the closest thing I have to it. Hopefully,there'll be an anime version of this because this looks like a very interesting premise for one.
