Hm, the pics don't look familiar, but the style does. Beetrain? (= studio) Hm...

Vaguely familiar, all of them, but not even enough to start searching. Maybe something i only checked an episode or two of.

Think of how you would caption the last picture, in the most literal sense. That should start to get you pretty close.

No, but you're in the right ballpark. Different studio.

Hm, definitly never seen any episode of that, maybe it looked familiar because character design is by the same guy that did Gungrave.
But i'm curious, how do you arrive from a caption to the last shot at Madlax?

Madlax is one of the more popular examples of the Girls With Guns genre.

Would have been harder without the subtitles. ;)
Round is up for grabs if anyone wants it.

Yup, me too. I use VLC. That's why all my shots are called vlcsnap[date][time].* ;)

Where do you guys go to get screenshots? I always have trouble looking for them.

I either simply use google (there's a tab for "pictures"; since I use the German browser, I don't know its name in English, but it should be easy enough to find). If I don't find anything good, I try fansub.tv, which is a site I found via the "google pictures". If they have the anime, they have a wide variety of pictures (many per episode), and ones that are otherwise hard to find (e.g. don't include the main characters).

However, they will often have subtitles, which - as Lhun said - makes guessing easier. (If you're more patient than I am, you might find good, no-sub images. But I explicitly wanted the coins, so...)

Black Lagoon? (That looks like Mr. Chan)
