Gachiakuta is the latest and greatest example of this I think. Such a fancy power system, basically Stands from JoJo, but you feel shock when a character shows up with a regular ass glock and starts firing.

I wonder if the presentation of guns in fantasy anime is at all reflective of how the japanese first experienced black powder weapons. Maybe I am looking too far into it.

I always thought it was messed up that Indy fired into a crowd and did it from his hip to boot

Apparently there was a whole whip vs sword choreographed fight planned for that, but Harrison Ford was super sick at the time so they just had him shoot the other guy. Ended up being fantastic, but I feel bad for the swordsman who learned a bunch of choreography for nothing.

For a moment there I didn’t realise this was about rpgs XD wtf brain!

Dude my jaw literally dropped when that scene hit. seeing all that sick ass shit happening in the fight and then homie pulls out the blicky and just starts gunning people. I about lost my fucking mind

I like magic settings that deal with non-magic technology becoming a threat to magic.

Also Vigo broke his toe when he kicked the helmet

Yay, another opportunity to share one my my favorite illustrations ever

There’s a reason every other character basically hates him. He’s not very considerate

The Artificer at one of my tables has an All-Purpose Tool, that they regularly use to slot in cantrips. Their go-to is of course Eldritch Blast. I ran the numbers, and that has effects similar to a pistol. So I commented in our group chat that “Functionally speaking, $Artificer.name has a gun.”
