| - The following is a list of characters from the Japanese manga and anime Gunslinger Girl. Set in modern-day Italy the series revolves around the Social Welfare Agency, a government-funded organisation which is supposed to provide advanced medical care to those in need. This, however, is a cover for a far different agenda: the patients, adolescent girls who have survived traumatic early lives, are brainwashed into forgetting their past, turned into cyborgs, trained in the use of weapons and used as assassins to battle terrorists, gangsters and other undesirables elements of society. Each girl is assigned to an adult male with a military, police or intelligence background whose job is to provide the girl with training and act as mentor, elder brother or father figure. The relationship between the cyborg-girls and their "handlers" forms the basis of much of the plot and varies from the affectionate to the indifferent with varying degrees of results. Their enemies include Mafiosi and terrorists seeking an independent northern Italy.
