Rewatched the first season again last weekend and yep, it's still good. Need to catch up with this thread now that there is a new one.

Are any of the OVA's or the movie Dubed yet as I can do Subs, but drat if I have to read while taking in all the Tank action. Even if the English VA's leave a lot to be desired compared to other shows unfortunately. (Except the Russian VA, she was fantastic + the song).

I like Yukari and I don't appreciate Crow's anti-Yukari stance.

what the?!

also you don't have to worry about tank action for the ovas, the anzio ova is mostly tank stuff but the specials are all just character antics mostly devoid of tanks

I thought she basically is? In the sound drama, it's noted she's always running around, her family is poor, and she has 18 siblings (?!) or something like that. But she really tries to match up with the others re: grace / manners (to... misc. effect) and looks up to Darjeeling.

It's not actually said or implied all that much. She just has a four generation home living under one roof which would make even a middle class family stressed.

It's probably on one of the other four drama CDs. All of which are untranslated

To be fair there was no reason to expect GuP to be anything except Strike Witches with planes replaced by tanks. Expectations were rightfully low, even if they turned out to be wrong.

People taking the old OP seriously though, that was funny.

The drama CD is kind of a companion piece to Der Film, and Anzio didn't get any new characters in the movie, so they didn't get a drama track. And besides, Anzio has several tracks from the previous drama CDs (which nobody bothered to translate, as far as I can tell).

I understood maybe 60% of the St. Gloriana drama so I guess I could give it a shot. expect results in... uh... three months.

Pretty sure that's aftermarket - the engineering club engaged in some rules-lawyering and did some things with the electric drive that aren't exactly WWII-spec (and have a sense of humor for labelling buttons it seems). Official rules only forbid modfying the engine because nobody was thinking about that unique hybrid drive when writing them.

Also, the F-35 isn't half the boondoggle that the Tiger(P) was. :colbert:

In the movie they said there are "regulations" on the engines in tanks but I think that means you can upgrade them to an extent. I mean otherwise you wouldn't be seeing Churchills and KV-2s keeping up with T-34s and such.

IIRC I heard there was some rule entry about having all electric and electronic components up to modern spec for the sake of safety.
They just overclocked the electric drive with extra juice. :v:

I was really, really impressed by the movie. Just plain fun from beginning to end. Definitely the most enjoyable movie I've seen so far this year, and I can't think of anything coming out that's likely to top it in terms of 'ability to put someone in a good mood'.

Just watched the movie, poo poo was real good, way better than I expected even reading people saying it ruled and all already. I just really like that this is poo poo about fun and stupid tank poo poo, there's no grim dark undertone or tragic backstory (aside from the super general stuff we got that was pretty mild for 'anime sad stuff'). Just tanks and moe.

Now who do I see about getting a moe air force show to complete the trinity of this with High School Fleet

There's already Strike Witches.

Mankind needs to take warfare into space so Japan can make a moe show about it.

They should probably fix Haifuri first.

For air, besides Strike Witches, there's an OVA of the jet fighter anime from Shirobako

Nah, Strike Witches is in the other military trinity, the military magical girl one.

GuP is in a totally different genre from those shows. While those shows are "Girls doing stuff™", GuP is a sports-battle anime where the characters are all girls.

Looking professional when committing genocide is essential. This is mostly achieved by using a beret.

Olive drab colour ensures the genocider will remain hidden from his prey until it's too late for them to do anything.



In a series that has a Maus doing something other than sitting in place and a Tiger P that works the bog Yoda's BT-42 is the one tank that takes the most liberties with it's actual historical performance.
