Rally Vincent is the featured character in
Kenichi Sonoda's popular (and
award winning)
manga Gunsmith Cats. The name comes from the
gun shop she owns and operates, which was originally "Gunsmith Cat" until she recruited her partner
Minnie May. Her ability to
kick ass is right up there with
Deunan Knute of
Appleseed, or even
Ripley from
Alien. She seems to prefer using her incredible
marksmanship and clever tactics far more than
hand-to-hand combat, though she is certainly not afraid to take on someone bare handed if that is her only option.
It is never explained how Rally, despite being only 19 (although with ID that says 21-22), has an incredible knowledge of
firearms and
automobiles. It is also never explained how Rally always ends up losing most of her clothing during any sort of combat, but that is
left as an exercise for the reader. Her only true love seems to be the
CZ-75 pistol.
She is clearly identified in the manga as being from
India, but strangely in the
OAV Riding Bean she is caucasian.
