They should play this like a comedy for most of the time, but then end it like Blackadder Goes Forth.

For a show about high school girls in tanks, its trailer showed middle school girls not in tanks.

Girls und Panzer; Japan and Germany, a combination that just screams "good times ahead".

What else? Now male otaku don't have to choose between a loli fetish or a tank fetish.

"You got your tanks in my moe anime!" "You got your girls in my tank!" Two things that don't even fit in the same sentence.

They remade Stripes into Striped Pantsu, I see.

"No one ever won a war by flashing their panties. They won by making the other girl flash theirs."

One last one:
"I'm not going out there unless I'm in one of those big metal things, they go up and down. What do you call them?"
"Japanese high school girls. In tanks."
"You're welcome."

Tanks but no tanks, Japan. Now, if the girls turned into tanks, that would be something...

I was surprised not to see Takaaki Suzuki on the list given the nature of the show, but the other article names him ^^;

Couldn't they have just adapted Sailor-fuku to Jūsensha? Or did it have too many male characters and too small heads for the female characters?
