The '''Gung-Ho Guns''' are a group of assassins brought together by [[Millions Knives (anime)|Knives]] to help further his agenda.
 
==Biography<!-- this section needs to be rewritten as a biography, this existing blurb here could be moved to an "overview" section or similar -->==
Not much is said in the 1998 anime about who they are or why [[Millions Knives (anime)|Millions Knives]] decided he needed to create the group. There are twelve of them in total, counting Legato, and each one has a gimmick or theme. They are listed below in the order in which they appeared in the series.
 
==Members==
 
=== [[Legato Bluesummers (anime)|Legato Bluesummers]]===
Number 1 of the Gung-Ho Guns, and the ''de facto'' leader of the group. His motif is death, from the decorations on his jacket to his straw nihilism. While he is the first Gung-Ho Gun to meet Vash, he is the last to face off against him.
 
===[[Monev the Gale]]===
An insanely muscular man who carries a massive chaingun on each arm. While he is the first Gung-Ho Gun to fight Vash, his number is unknown.
 
===[[Dominique the Cyclops]] ===
Number 2 of the Gung-Ho guns. A ''femme-fatale'' whose gimmick lies behind the eyepatch she wears over her right eye.
 
===[[EG Mine|E.G. Mine]]===
Number 5 of the Gung-Ho Guns. A skinny man with a wild shock of hair who is partially encased between two hemispheres covered in needles. The needles can be fired at will.
 
===[[Rai-Dei the Blade (anime)|Rai-Dei the Blade]]===
Number 9 of the Gung-Ho Guns. Resembles a samurai from the Edo period who wields a sword with a concealed gun. He was trained by the masters of the Ito school of fighting.
 
===[[Leonof the Puppetmaster (anime)|Leonof the Puppetmaster]]===
An older man who carries around a briefcase containing the pieces of a carved marionette that he can use to do his work by proxy. His Gung-Ho Gun number is unknown.
 
===[[Gray the Ninelives (anime)|Gray the Ninelives]]===
A towering, beefy humanoid robot who's basically a tank on legs. His Gung-Ho Gun number is unknown.

Number 3 of the Gung-Ho Guns. He is a man who hides behind a conical shield and can become a deadly spinning-top-like projectile.
 
===[[Zazie the Beast (anime)|Zazie the Beast]]===
Number 4 of the Gung-Ho Guns. He is a small boy who wears a device behind his ear that lets him control sandworms via high frequencies.
 
===[[Chapel the Evergreen]]===
A tall, severe-looking man who wears goggles with red lenses and wields a Punisher. He is [[Nicholas D. Wolfwood (anime)|Wolfwood's]] former mentor and faces off against his former pupil instead of Vash. His Gung-Ho Gun number is unknown.
 
===[[Caine the Longshot]]===
A silent marksman who wears a face mask and carries a sniper rifle with a ridiculously long barrel. His Gung-Ho Gun number is unknown.
