Girl Gun Lady (ガールガンレディ,Gāru Gan Rēdi) is a Japanese tokusatsu drama television series created and produced by Bandai. It is labeled as "a tokusatsu series for adults in a new era".
The series premiered on MBS TV's Dramaism block on April 7, 2021 and concluded on June 9. It also streamed weekly episodes on the official Bandai Spirits YouTube channel with English subtitles.
The tagline of the series is "The worst youth ever." (史上最悪の、青春。,Shijō saiaku no, seishun.)
Koharu is a dull high school girl who is always alone. Her only hobby is making plastic models. One day, Koharu stops by a mysterious antique shop and purchases a plastic model gun and a toy figure named Alice. After spending the entire night assembling the gun, Koharu wakes up and witnesses bullets flying everywhere in school. She then meets Alice who moves like a human and tells her to get ready for a deathmatch tournament called "Girl Gun Fight", where she has to attack her schoolmates with a gun.
The show also plugs Bandai’s toys tied to the series, with end segments showing actress and star Sei Shiraishi building a Girl Gun plastic model kit step by step.
