However, this seems kinda fun so...random youtube video spam, go! Have some Eila's character song: This one is pretty lol from Eila and Sanya's HimeUta cd: Take a moment to revisit the Eila and Sanya classic, "Sweet Duet": And to finish off, the EPIC theme song they made for Starlight Stream, "Endless Chat": (actually, it's even better if you can watch it with comments on, so if you have a NicoNico account click here) Yeah. Great songs. Enjoy. edit: lol, ok. Just for shits and giggles: Last edited by Sol Falling; 2011-08-31 at 05:40. |

Given my opinion on SW2, something that's been bothering me about the movie is the lack of GONZO's involvement despite being the original studio that produced both the OVA short and the first series.
Apparently, they've been (sort of) making a comeback with Nyanpire and Last Exile: Silver Fam. Yet despite this, they're not the main production company behind the movie. What's the deal with this? I am confused as to why GONZO isn't the main production company despite making the first two anime adaptations of Strike Witches. It's like they just forgot about it completely. |

Re: the animation, At first I thought the 1st season's animation was better. However, I think S2's animation is more consistently better (more on model, more movement over), while S1 has more very impressive and stylish sakuga scenes (like a lot of ep. 5, the end of ep. 9, and the final destruction of the Akagi). If you asked a random sample of, though, the majority would probably say S2 was better animated. Re: Saori Seto, well, she's not the original, so anyone would feel off. I got used to her, though. I do, however, prefer S1 to S2 myself, but I wouldn't criticize it nearly as much as you do. If the first season was 100%, then I'd say, for example, the second season was 88%. |

I just got the latest semi-official doujinshi by Nogami Takeshi, "Keiko Kato North Africa Military Photos 1943," in the mail this week; I wrote a short review of it here. People who prefer the serious/historical side of Strike Witches would definitely enjoy it.

I don't see Strike Witches 2 in the UK for a long long time. We still don't have it in the US and it's been a year since it aired with no information from Funimation of a release date or any info about it just like all the To Aru Index/Railgun series.
At least they are making a movie but it comes out in Feb I believe, maybe I'll go to Japan around that time and see it while I'm their was planning on going in the fall and see Eva 3.0 |

I don't think there's been an official English translation of the light novels so to speak. However, Dan Kanemitsu did mention Suomus Misfit Squadron and Witches in Africa getting somewhat of an English translation. There's also a dub of the anime as well. Though it's not all that great IMO. Quote:
As much as I hate to admit it, I'd have to agree with you there. Then again, I either had my hopes too high, or expected way too much out of this series. |
