    1. What was she doing in Ireland? Was it a terrorist exchange program with the IRA?

    2. seems like the kind of thing Akira Toriyama would have seen at some point in his life

      LOL, bazooka?

      That’s an M72 LAW, Lightweight Anti-armor Weapon. It replaced the bazooka in the 60s. I got to shoot them a few times

    4. When I see a LAW all I can think about is that scene from Falling Down with Michael Douglas where he blows up the construction on the road.

    5. I have so little knowledge in history. Why is that a Japanese citizen, a woman nonetheless, holding a bazooka in Ireland of all places?

      This is so not Fusako Shigenobu. This is Izumi Igarashi from the movie, 少女コマンドーIzumi (Schoolgirl Commando Izumi).
