I anime gun games especially with badass chicks. However, I am annoyed that you have to play them online constantly. Are there any games that have an offline mode to play that's in the same genre as Anime girls with guns?l

Not even joking but the second I read the name the theme kicked in in my head: Bayonetta, you mystery ๐ŸŽต

I love this game so much and I'll always defend it against all the eye candy accusations. I wholeheartedly believe if you spend any time trying to play this game the way it was meant to be played (guided by the manual and official guide) you'll never be able to see Bayonetta other than one of the most badass action game protagonists of all-time.

goes to Steam, searches for items with tags "Anime", "Singleplayer", and "Shooter", type "Game" to exclude bundles, sorts by "User Reviews"

https://store.steampowered.com/search?sort_by=Reviews_DESC&tags=4085%2C4182%2C1774&category1=998&supportedlang=english&ndl=1

295 results match your search. 97 titles have been excluded based on your preferences.

That's not logged in, so I assume that the 97 probably have adult content or something that Valve defaults to not showing, so figure ~400 games.

EDIT: It looks like "Shooter" can also mean stuff like shmups or rail shooters. You may be interested in that, but if not, replacing the "Shooter" tag with the "FPS" (first-person shooter) tag:

https://store.steampowered.com/search?sort_by=Reviews_DESC&tags=4085%2C4182%2C1663&category1=998&supportedlang=english&ndl=1

Or the "Third-person shooter" tag:

https://store.steampowered.com/search?sort_by=Reviews_DESC&tags=4085%2C4182%2C3814&category1=998&supportedlang=english&ndl=1

EDIT2: Apparently and obnoxiously, Valve didnlt make search URL links compatible between the mobile version of the site and the desktop version of the site. The above was from a desktop browser. But if you'te on mobile, you can probably recreate the search by adding thr same tags.

I've heard, from credible creators, that Neon White (the first game from the first list) is superb. So that might be an interesting first try.

Iโ€™d suggest to look into Valkyria Chronicles (1 and onwards)
