| Grenadier | comment |
Grenadier is a manga series written and illustrated by S�suke Kaise, which ran in Monthly Shonen Ace from 2003 to 2006. It received an anime adaptation in 2004, produced by Studio Live and Group TAC and directed by Hiroshi Kojina.Based in an alternate version of Japan's civil war period, this is the story of the travels of Rushuna Tendo, a buxom young woman possessing astonishing skill with a revolver. Known as a senshi, or firearms expert, Rushuna is on a personal journey to bring peace to the land. Uncomfortably aware that shooting people is not the best way to accomplish this, Rushuna is struggling to master the peaceful teachings of the Empress Tenshi. Accompanying her is Yajiro Kojima a.k.a. Yatchan, a skilled samurai who has grown weary of battle and sees value in Rushuna's goals. Also along for the ride is Mikan Kurenai, an orphaned balloon artist who has painful memories of her own to deal with.Learning that there is a price on her head, Rushuna journeys back to the Capital to clear her name. Pursued and watched by a mysterious man in a clown mask, Rushuna must battle the Juttensen or Ten Heavenly Enlightened one by one, each armed with strange and deadly weapons. She gains allies as she travels, beating her enemies with her skills and winning them over with her purity, trying to learn more about the mysterious Jester and to understand the Empress' strange actions.The original manga version has a plot far differing from that of the anime adaptation, with Rushuna trying to find her homeland, editing the backstories of some of the major characters (including turning her evil counterpart into an adoptive sister, and the Iron-Masked Baron into a nutjob capable of making Hitler look sane), and turning the world they live in into a post-apocalyptic scenario, except it's been so long after it that the ancient super weapons are buried deep and the world is somewhat flourishing. | |

Darker and Edgier: The ecchi content of the anime; is a tad more explicit, however the manga contains more violence by quality and quantity (e.g. Koto was killed by the clown in manga, in the anime; she survived and the soldiers killed by the bizarre Razor Wind wielding "monster" (King Furo in disguise) were shown with less detail in the anime;). | |

Title Drop | |
| Grenadier / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: The word "Grenadier" doesn't even come up until the 10th episode, when Rushina is given the title of "Grenadier" for having allegedly slaughtered all the Juttensen that went against her. In the finale, the title is bestowed on her, but repurposed as "Grenadier: The Smiling Senshi" for her mastery of removing an enemy's will to fight. | |

Marshmallow Hell: Done humorously, but also practically and for emotional effect as well. Rushuna hides Yajiro from enemy troops in a hot spring with it, but also uses it on a couple of her defeated enemies in a form of the Cooldown Hug. | |

| Grenadier / int_777c0033 | comment |
Technical Pacifist: Yatchan believed that only with a sword could you feel the weight of a human life. In an equivalent example, when Mikan tried to use Rushuna's gun by herself, the trigger pull is apparently very heavy. This is also done to symbolize the weight of a human life that it could take. note Either that, or Mikan is too young to pull a trigger, or Rushuna left the safety on, just in case. Rushuna also tries to "miss" the vital organs and never goes for a lethal shot. | |

Fridge Brilliance | |
| Grenadier / int_b0cd3349 | comment |
In an equivalent example, when Mikan tried to use Rushuna's gun by herself, the trigger pull is apparently very heavy. This is also done to symbolize the weight of a human life that it could take. note Either that, or Mikan is too young to pull a trigger, or Rushuna left the safety on, just in case. Rushuna also tries to "miss" the vital organs and never goes for a lethal shot. | |

| Grenadier / int_b2cdd776 | comment |
Bottomless Magazines: Mooks with assault rifles can fire them on fully automatic for several seconds at a time without having to reload. Averted in principle for Rushuna, who can only fire six shots at a time without having to do her signature reload from the store in her seemingly bottomless cleavage. In one episode, even her cleavage runs out! And at the end of the last episode it is shown just how many rounds her cleavage can carry as they are spilled out in a staggering shower of bullets. That said, she also fires her six-chamber gun seven times without reloading twice in the very first episode. | |

Spin to Deflect Stuff: Rushuna's method of dodging bullets tends to involve a lot of spinning. In fact, it seems as though simply spinning in place can cause bullets to miraculously change their paths. | |

Firearms Are Cowardly | |
| Grenadier / int_cb2e71d7 | comment |
Firearms Are Cowardly: The sword-wielding R�nin Yajiro initially stands by this trope. He believes that gun users are cowards, since they do not personally feel the weight of the lives they take with their weapons, like he and his fellow swordsmen do. Traveling with Rushuna, a master gunslinger, slowly changes his mind, however. | |

Playboy Bunny: Mikan has an inflatable outfit of this nature, which can somehow keep her warm on a mountaintop in a blizzard. Rushuna ends up wearing a more literal inflatable bunny outfit for the same reason, which gets closer to the standard concept after it gets ripped and deflates. | |

"Wanted!" Poster | |
| Grenadier / int_cd336741 | comment |
"Wanted!" Poster: Rushuna faces this twice over the course of the anime (which between them cover three quarters of the entire series). The first time it's a misunderstanding due to the fact that the wanted outlaw has a rather vague description that she coincidentally matches (long golden hair). The second time, the posters identify her by name, with a very accurate portrait attached. | |
