Type 59 is a Tactical Doll in the game *Girls' Frontline*, based on the Chinese Type 59 pistol, which is a copy of the Soviet Makarov PM pistol. In the game, Type 59 is often referred to by her designation and, like other Tactical Dolls, she is named after the weapon she carries and is used in combat under the player's command. Although the real-life Type 59 pistol was not adopted by the People's Liberation Army due to craftsmanship issues, she is still a collectible and trainable character in the game. In the *Girls' Frontline* universe, players take on the role of commanders, leading these androids in battle against their enemies. Type 59 is one of the early characters in the game, featuring her own unique artwork, skills, and backstory. Players can acquire her through battles and events and strengthen her through leveling, equipment, and skill training. Furthermore, she has a skin system, allowing players to change her appearance through various in-game means. Among fans, Type 59 is often considered a lower-rarity doll within the game, however she was once a main character for many players. In *Girls' Frontline* and its related works, Type 59 appears as a young woman who participates in complex storylines and battles, fighting alongside other Tactical Dolls for their respective purposes.
