"What a man! Sipping on bourbon with your left arm while having surgery on your right. What a man!"

Interesting that you mention that, that's exactly what Guan Yu was doing but playing chess. Proof, that Golgo is a god lol.

Overall quite an enjoyable series, was quite surprised at how entertaining it was, being episodic. Like others said, I would've preferred if a worthy rival was introduced and Golgo was forced to dance on the fine line between life and death. That would've introduced some conflict.

It was an interesting show, that's for sure. Moving from 5/10 to 6/10 is a fair score, purely because there is nothing else out there similar to Golgo 13. I would've preferred if there was rival introduced and some conflict as golgo danced between life and death.

Ultimately I decided to give it a 6/10 because it is not fair to try comparing it to other similar series or anime. Golgo should be judged by what it tried to achieve, which was a chuck norris show about a master assassin taking out targets, Golgo having the emotional resonance of a plank of wood should'nt be tallied as a short-coming but a differentiator.

Doesn't get a 7/10 from me, because as zany as some of the episodes were, I noticed a large amount of the episodes were quite repetitive and quite straight-forward.

Damn Golgo is just flexing really hard
Left hand = he showed the doctor that he didn't need that right hand to kill his savior's fasther
Right hand = to thank the doctor by killing the one "killed" his father

He might be a cold-blooded professional assassin, but he also have personality xD

Sad to see it ends, I heard Golgo 13 is pretty popular among men in Japan
I hope we can see another Golgo 13 in the future

Golgo is so lucky most of the time, but when he gets unlucky, it's bad luck through and through!
Golgo still has a tiny bit of humanity left to be grateful. He sniped Yann's father using his left hand out of respect for Yann. He's ambidextrous.
