A-HA!
I was curious about what that ship was that being used to shuttle our heorines back to their carrier town. Turns out that it is based on the protected cruiser Matsushima, with the guns removed of course. Endless "Eureka" Soul

Episode 5.5 is as feared a recap episode without any new scenes at all. Mostly it's Miho introducing her circumstances, then her friends in the first half. Second half is slightly more interesting with Miho introducing the other team's individual members by name (finally), and Yukari providing intro on the tanks and some technical tidbits (The Matilda II's are identified as the Mk.III/ Mk.IV model).
The one new scene we get in this episode though is the End Card: Also, someone finally did it!!!!!!

I get the feeling that Girls und Panzer was planned out as a 2-cour show. There are so many characters with lots of backstory that there won't be enough time in a single cour show to explore properly. Similarly, there seems to be a lot more untold details about the different schools than we've been shown. They probably couldn't fund a 2-cour show properly, so it's going to be a single season.
I'd say it's for the best as 2-cour shows are more difficult to manage, and a mess up like this would have far more serious consequences. It'd also mean that each episode had to be tightened up and absolutely packed with content. And really it's the amount of content that breathes life into the show. Quote:
Isn't that guy already working on the show? What's he going to do, put yet more eyepatches on girls?

Incredibly, he is. He's listed as "Materials Assistance" for the show, likely in technical information about the tanks and military hardware used.

Good for them and for us, this show becomes the surprise hit of the season. BD/DVD preorder is about 4,200 right now and it will exceed Chuunibyou (about 4,600) soon. Right now, there is a little chance that they will do the second second or the adaption of "Little Army" manga.
