Manga can be just as awesome at telling a story visually, even in complex technical action scenes - see the original Appleseed Manga for some amazing tactical combat. The GuP manga is just sloppy on all counts.

Not that I'll stop reading it because, hey any Anzio battle is beter than none. The Italian assault guns should be a threat to all the tanks in addition to the P40!
