Characters Unique Reloads

Just characters with unique reloads. That's it.

Equilibrium: Clerics wrist mags

Various games - Iraqi Reload: A few games have this reload, including Call of Duty and The Finals. I would've put The Finals version here but I couldn't find a gif of it.

Battlefield Hardline - Various reloads: Various guns have a chance for a unique reload, these are two of my favorites.

Battlefield 1 - Double Barrel: The sawed off has a chance to mimic the reload from the Classic Doom double barel reload

The anime sells itself on the fanservice, but I personally come back to it every so often because it's weirdly wholesome.

Due to some quirks in the way it was adapted from the source manga (which is shameless trash), it inadvertently stumbled into what I think is one of the strongest relationship dynamics I've ever seen between its leads in all of anime.

Yes! I first watched it way back in 2010 because hurr durr horny high schooler but by the end of it, I was like, "This is making my heart happy more than it's making my dick happy. wtf is going on?"

This isn't even getting into the insanity of the final duel where she's fighting a rival gunslinger who also reloads in this same fashion. They're casually hopping 30' into the air, bouncing shells off their bodies to reload mid-backflip, and shooting each other's fired bullets out of the air rather than dodging. Our MC here does a stunt where she boob-throws an absurd number of shells to blind her rival like she's flinging a fistful of pocket sand. This show is weirdly wholesome, absolutely hilarious, and well-worth a watch.

Most people will never watch the whole show, but do yourself a favour and at least check out the final fight  https://youtu.be/wwkxJNZ_P3k

Hold on...an action anime where the girls actually get center stage, rather than some guy having to come and rescue the day? That's rare.

I mean, magical girl series are a thing. And if that's too girly for you, this is the 'boy' version of magical girl series: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4l936i

That's how Roland reloads with one hand in the Gunsliger/The Dark Tower books by Stephen King.
