Preliminary (10/50 eps)
"Cyka Bylat!" -Russian CS:GO Players

If you face this guy in CS:GO, well good luck killing him, whether you're afar from him, doing some sneaky attacks to him, gangbanging him (#NoHomo), and other tactics that you considered to be good but in Golgo 13's case, you're actually dead wrong.

Golgo 13 is an seinen anime about a man name Duke Togo who is a former agent now a lone wolf who likes to play cosplay and stealth like Agent 47 and his main agenda, headshotting those persons who are in Golgo 13's contract.

Golgo 13 is one of the most feared sniper of all time according to some characters in the anime. He has a 100% accuracy, his favorite weapon is a modified M-16, he's good when it comes to martial arts, and others that made him the dangerous guy to fight with.

Golgo 13 is very mysterious human being despite of his superhuman-like skills from him. Like Agent 47, Golgo doesn't like to talk to much, he's emotionless, he's good when it comes to have sex with the girls (can't tell if Golgo is enjoying because he still remains his poker face with him), and he warns someone to don't stand behind him otherwise he's going to kill that person behind Golgo.

Golgo 13's storyline is all about the contracts and killings with some backstories to give some viewers a clue why Golgo and the person who contacted Golgo wanted to kill that person. There also some other episodes in this anime that doesn't involve killings as well and other episodes about Golgo's relationship from women to the police.

Golgo 13 has a "Detective Conan" Syndrome here when it come to Character Development. What I mean by that is that Golgo 13 introduces newer characters in every new episodes with the same old cliches like contract signing and killings.

I guess you already count how many "Golgo 13's" words did I mention here in this review, right? Well that's because he's the only main character in the series, while many of them are just supporting casts. He's a lone wolf who doesn't want friends and he has no family. Golgo 13 also deals in every single contracts he accepted, from individuals to a group, from ordinary people to politicians and most wanted criminals, and even women who had sex with him or an acquaintance in or out from the dealer's contract. Golgo 13 doesn't give a single fuck about them and the only to solve it is to kill them without making an excuses.

Anyways, Golgo 13 is all about crime drama, and romance with a dark story. So, if you're looking for a real seinen anime, then go watch this anime. You will never be disappointed.
