Tonight, you pukes will sleep with your tanks. You will give your tank a loli's name because this is the only moe you people are going to get. Your days of finger-banging Miku-Hatsuon through her pretty blue-striped panties are over! You're married to this piece. This armor of steel and diesel. And you will be faithful! Port, hut!

I'm going to go ahead and predict that of the three mecha anime being shown this season, none of them will have an antagonist mecha more intimidating than the Maus was.
Also, does anyone know what the background music was that was playing in the finale, when the M3 Lee was fighting the Elefant and JTiger? |

The Origins of Senshado
Ok. The following is my translation of The Origins of Senshado, sourcing both the original text and Tiger603's work on gamer.com.tw. I posted it first on 4chan.

Now for translator's notes:
a) Archidamus II. 476BC-427 BCE. Princess Cynisca, the daughter of Archidamus II, was the first woman equestrian to won in an Olympic event. She bred her steed. b) It is known that the Gladiatrices fought bare chested. Citing a web page from College of New Rochelle, Tacitus actually recorded how that woman chariot fighter and (plurimi liberti) mostly freedman took part in an event thrown for Nero. Emperor Domitian actually had Gladiatrices fight dwarves at night. c) Edo Japan was the time of the Tokugawa Shogunate. Starting in 1603 till 1867. d) Heian era, 794-1185. Capital was Kyoto. e) Tomoe Gozen. Female warrior of legend. Famed swordswoman. f) Hangaku Gozen, famed general. Renowned archer. g) Myōrin'ni. In Kamakura era. Famed for holding the Fort at Torisaki during December of 1586. h) Tachibana Ginchiyo. Head of clan, famed general, a Daimyo. Famous for leading a successful defensive engagement with a squad of 200 female musketeers to protect her fiefdom.

Interesting info there, though yes also wondering why they can't just make replica tanks with the same specs as the originals, modernization improvements for safety notwithstanding.
Good to see the mystery of open-top vehicles finally being solved, though I wonder about cases like the M36 and M10 tank destroyers with armored roof conversion kits. The ability to restore recovery vehicles into combat tanks though may provide an alternative explanation for how Oarai got a Tiger (P): they may have simply converted a Bergepanzer Tiger (P) into the combat version.

Makes you wonder if the schools eventually ran into a Ship of Theseus situation, in that a tank has had its parts replaced so many times that it's technically a new tank.
