Girls und Panzer OVA 7 Anzio Battle! REACTION

Comments

The fun little Anzio battle and demolition alright. - 11:53: Ah, perfect moment to talk about all of the history club / Hippo Team member nicknames (soulnames): * Caesar (Loader), the girl with the red scarf... in direct reference to Julius Caesar of the Romanian Empire * Erwin (Commander), the girl with the German Field Marshal's cap... in direct reference to Erwin Rommel, one of the most famous German Generals of WWII * Saemonza (gunner), the girl with the always closed left eye and the read headband... in reference to a Japanese samurai called Sanada Yukimura of the Sengoku period (the person lived from 1567 - 1615) * Oryou (driver), the girl with the black hair, midnight-blue eyes and the red glasses... in reference to historical figure Narasaki Ryou (commonly called Oryou too) (1841 - 1906) - she is the only girl of the Hippo Team with a nickname based on a female historical figure - 17:58 / 24:16: Someone at the subbing group here just went: Put German translations partially in there simply due to war theme or something. LOL - 18:24: And that's the first thing which is half a spoiler for a different episode if one watched this right after the initial Anzio battle skip after episode 7. As we saw later, Saori did pass a test for being a B-ranked (?) radio operator with Mako's help and the latter seeing that book here for the first time is a tease for that. - 19:47: Also teasing the two new teams which ended up joining in the later rounds with Sodoko and her folk from the school's Public Morals Committee (Mallard Team) with their Char B1 bis on one hand and the Automobile Club (Leopon Team) with their prototype Porsche Tiger on the other. Some VAs for Anzio: - Saori Hayami as Carpaccio aka. Hina (aka. duo vice-commander of their Senshado team) as you correctly guessed - Yō Taichi as Pepperoni (duo vice-commander of their Senshado team) - Maya Yoshioka as Chiyomi Anzai (the commander) Others of their Senshado team (background characters): - Nozomi Yamamoto as Amaretto (brown hair/eyes girl) - *Misato Fukuen* as Gelato (more bright brown and shorter hair and brown eyes) - Yuri Yamaoka as Panettone (dark yellow/green hair) - Konomi Tada as Ricotta (bright brown hair) - Yuka Inoue as Robeora (black hair and glases) Of course... basically all of those minor characters have VAs from the actual main cast teams of Oarai (Yuka Inoue is Saemonza for instance) and there are some listings which say that those names for the background characters are partially fan-made though I am not sure about that.

I didn't even notice for the first couple minutes because I'm fluent in English and German, but yeah I really don't know why they felt the need to add extra German on top of the couple phrases they already use. Must have been K-On! fans or something. :^)

Oh geez, CommieSubs. That name brings me back lol... I remember them being alright when they first started subbing, just a few memes here and there, but it seemed like they started to just add weird stuff to their subs just for the sake of being "different". But I guess some people enjoy that, which is fine. Different strokes for different folks and all that.

The subs that used random German words came from CommieSubs. They were one of the Fansub groups that did English subtitles for GuP back in 2012. Yeah, it's not that good if you want accurate subs for GuP.

Just add on the music, Anzio also used the song Fiamme Nere during the Type 89 vs the 5 Carro Veloce tankettes. It's only played in this OVA and never used again.

JaMiBu

Yeah, the moment I saw it I just thought "Oh God, it's THOSE subtitles"

Bavost

I agree! Ak-Submarine has the best subtitles!

Hibiki

It was definitely grape juice, students at Anzio are all good girls

You nailed it! Carpaccio is voiced by Saori Hayami! "I feel the subtitles are barely English" - Ya, I usually don't comment on people's choice of subtitles, but this subtitle group really likes to embellish. Even a lot of the English lines are just... oddly translated. The group you downloaded (Sav1or, I believe) uses multiple sources for their subtitles, so whatever source they used for the Anzio OVA is... yeah, not that great lmao. But that's my opinion, I'm glad you enjoy them. I'm going to make a recommendation, but feel free to ignore it since we're already this far into the show at this point. I highly recommend ak-Submarine's subtitles. They are a group that specifically does GuP subtitles because they love the source material (as well as other military-related anime/manga). I'd highly consider them the Gold Standard when it comes to GuP subtitles. But I 100% understand if you don't want to go through the hassle of downloading another group at this point, especially since you don't seem to mind the translations. Now, for MUSIC TIME! Anzio's theme music is "Funiculì, Funiculà" (IPA: funikuˈli ffunikuˈla), and is a famous Neapolitan song composed in 1880 by Luigi Denza to lyrics by Peppino Turco. It was written to commemorate the opening of the first funicular cable car on Mount Vesuvius. It has been widely adapted and recorded since its publication.

The subs would drive me up the wall if this was my first watch, but I'm just happy you enjoyed it lmao
