2025-06-08 20:45:15 +0000 UTCWe're done with the British style school. Next we're going to against American style school. FYI all the schools imitating different countries. And btw all the OSTs are actual military sonfs from diffirent countries. And I can guarantee 100% informations, references, and stereotypes here are accurate because fun fact: They hired real military and history experts. but there is a little bit of inaccuracy that is physics here where they break the laws of physics a little bit for the plot. But this rarely happens, only at certain times. But if you thinking about it, it can actually happen in the real life, so it doesn't really matter

2024-12-27 03:23:37 +0000 UTCThis isn't a show like Jujutsu Kaisen or Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, you can just feel the emotions from the music and take that as the direction that the target audience would be feeling.

2024-12-23 19:47:54 +0000 UTCSo, the most prevalent point of these comments is how Senshado is actually a pretty safe, fun, strategic, competitive and popular sport - aside of what Miho was doing by having her head out of the tank whilst being under fire - which is nationally accepted and has its own rules to prevent any human from getting injured whilst also having an insurance specifically for Senshado matches. When having that in mind, these matches view themselves pretty differently - at least in my mind. Perhaps even for the better actually. So... in terms of VAs, this will be a bit difficult since it does seem like names are barley said for the non main cast characters: I guess this one goes for the volleyball team of the Type 89B tank (using descriptions of their looks from the GuP Fandom Wiki). - The short girl with a short dark brown hair and a pair of dark brown eyes: Mika Kikuchi (菊地美香) - The tall and well endowed (again... not my wording LOL) girl with medium pink-ish brown hair and a pair of brown eyes who also wears a red bandanna on her head: Maya Yoshioka (麻耶吉岡) - The tall and well endowed girl with long blonde hair that is tied in a ponytail and brown eyes who also wears a white headband: Sakura Nakamura (中村桜) - she had voiced the manager of the VTubers in VTuber Legend as well from the anime I know - The tall and slender girl with short brown hair that is tied in a small ponytail using a red hair tie and a pair of brown eyes: Mari Kirimura (桐村まり)

I won't go into it in any depth unless asked, but as we've seen in this episode, there are what is called "No Fire Zones". Sections of the town are part of the allowed battlefield (which have been evacuated), and other sections are No Fire Zones, where the people can watch the match from. These No Fire Zones can still be travelled through by the tanks, but they're not allowed to fire any rounds while in them. Yeah, insurance/Senshado Federation covers any damages to property that is the result of a match. On the matches being dangerous, as I said above all the areas designated for battle are evacuated in advance of the match. There's also a lot of systems in place to protect the participants as well that the series doesn't go into (again, time constraints due to only 12 episodes.) Regarding your comment on how good the blending of 3D and animation is. Well, it only gets better. The series had a TV budget, just wait until you get to the movie (der FILM) and the OVA movies (das FINALE). It's absolutely incredible how good it looks later on. Lastly, I think here is the first time we hear one of the other school's theme songs. All schools we meet have their own country theme (St. Gloriana's being British, for example), and also their own theme song. The songs are usually actual historical military songs/march music. St. Gloriana's theme song is "The British Grenadiers", composed sometime in the 1700's, which is a traditional marching song for some British and Canadian military units. At the end, when we are introduced to Saunders (country theme: America), the music playing is "Battle Hymn of The Republic", composed around 1861, and is an American patriotic song during the American Civil War.

2024-12-22 22:47:16 +0000 UTC"Somebody probably died" "Senshodo is dangerous." Senshodo is a very safe sport where nobody dies. They have the carbon-coated tanks LMAO also the music that plays when the other schools tanks are shown are one of that "country's" military marching songs. Pravda has a great one also there is one in the ova that is awesome.

2024-12-22 20:08:05 +0000 UTCAll these tanks are going too fast, the phase "all's fair in love and war" is a common phrase in english.

2024-12-22 19:55:04 +0000 UTCThis is never explained in the show proper (now that it matters bc is more of a "just don't think about it" kind of thing) so is not a spoiler, but according to the lore all damages incured during a match are covered by the Senshado Federation, which is the sport's governing body
