Well the subs are out. I finally get what they've talking about. Most of it I kinda got correctly. It's a real fun.

These are my favorite parts of the film.

From the look of their shoulder patches (which was really hard to focus on for some reason) they're from the Spanish team, Blue Division High School.

It's a good start, but the way they're managing those release dates is absolutely mad.

Drake · 2018-03-25, 17:26

This was great, the new tank crew was a highlight.

The wait to the next one just makes me sad =<

Infinite Zenith · 2018-03-25, 17:29

For now, I suppose, have some screenshots, and know that whenever the next one releases, we've got an (estimated) three month wait to being able to see it...

So Das Finale episode 1 was GREAT! Though I feel the tank combat parts were too short and not quite as arresting as previous battles, everything from the characters to the various minutinae was on point (like Yukari, why are you carrying a grenade on you for such a situation?

). The animations especially though, not even Der Film prioritized character animation that well or that fluidly, especially in combination with the glorious cinematography we've come to expect from the series.

The first part with the dark underbelly of the ship was especially fun, with Shark Team being a very fun addition to the team. That impromptu duel was a nice way to show off the assorted strengths of Ankou Team, both in expected and unexpected ways (Hana and Miho in particular are

). I actually like it better than the second part with the tank battle, since the battle really only came down to one decisive moment, and we needed to see the next episode to conclude it.

Episode 2 when?!

Infinite Zenith · 2018-03-25, 21:08

We're supposed to treat these as equivalent to watching two episodes at a time of a new season, I think

Definitely felt like watching one episode though, even ending in a cliffhanger.

Blue Division's got some serious cleavage going on. DAmn.

Blue Division is a spoof of the fame Spanish Legion. (Legión Española)

start as the equivalent of French’s foreign legion, the open shirt tradition is from station in hot weather Africa.

The film wil lbe screened in Russia in 8 days. It's just two hours bust trip to get to Belgorofd but to much hassle crossing the border.

So I watched it as it is. Indeed not much action this episode but the meeting with the Shark team was great and I really hope we'll see part 2 soon.

Although the open shirts are the same as the Tercio de Estranjeros, the Blue Division school is named after the Spanish volunteer division which fought on the German side in WWII:

You know in complete honesty that looks more like a lineup of male strippers rather then a fighting force.

Top Sergeant · 2018-03-27, 06:37

Never push Yukari into a corner, you'll be sad and sorry! Makes me wonder what else she might be packing. I have to say that was a surprise!

I wish I could get the Automotive Team to work on my car, but mere 'automobiles' probably no longer hold their interest. I mean just LOOK at what they did with the Porsche Tiger! Working on a normal car for them is probably like expecting Michelangelo to use finger paint.

charasu · 2018-03-27, 11:34

A great ova. But why i have feel the next one will next year
~~or more~~

After this winter battle, they can milk this series with more garupan world cup edition

A grenade at that range is suicide, she'd fry Miho and the others along with everyone inside of 13 meters

I'm actually a little puzzled: not with the first act itself, but one of our number hasn't join the discussion party yet! Given what we'd seen, Final Chapter might be more up their alley than the movie.

If you mean me, it's better to call me a "casualty" or "trauma victim" of said movie. By the time the fires all died out, GuP had turned to me from "something special" into more of a "OK, I'll watch it" level.

Anyway, what CAN I say about it. It was amusing, and yes, it is more up my alley than the movie. The conflict, for one, is actually proportionately sized, which is better than trying to hype things up too much.

The competition between Anglerfish and the would-be Shark Team was amusing. I frowned when they reverse imported that fan-idea of Miho being really good at martial arts due to shell-dodging. It is completely inconsistent with the relatively realistic and low-key portrayal of things that I think was one of the draws of the original series. But then, wacky and throwing out realism worked for them (commercially) in der Film, so I wasn't too shocked to see something like this.

The final escape was clever, but gawd did they have to force themselves into making that mistake to set it up. They basically all crammed themselves onto the bridge to get shot at. You don't have to have any military knowledge to at least suspect you don't cross bridges that way in a combat situation...

Used to be, I would not accept such a passage in a FanFic (in fact, I'm pretty sure even amateur FanFics I've seen managed to avoid this level of contrived stupidity), but now I can't even get angry or protest anymore... I was kind of "Oh, really (flat)" and when they finally got out "Oh, that was kind of clever..."

Times have changed.

These are my favorite parts of the film. Spoiler for Spoiler images: While the other girls pulls out play things, our resident military/survivalist means serious business. Our new Student council President can really chug it down. Even in Japan people recognize the spoof. It draw quite a laugh. OK, any guess on what school these girls are? The one in the right could be Swiss or Netherlands?! Could the girls on front with the front be Maginot? Any idea on the girls at the back... Ando does Shotokan Karate... While the aristocratic Oshida does Pray Mantis... It's hilarious that Mari(with her big fore-head) always slams her head on the tank. Once again Sodoko showed us why she's 1 of the 2 with the best eye-sight in the school. It ends with BC team heading to a snow covered mountain. I pointed out in my review that I'm quite disappointed with the film. It's not because the movie itself is bad, in fact it's very entertaining, It's because of that to be continued open ended part. The action is really gearing up at end, very exciting, but we have to wait for part 2 to see how they beat BC freedom, and as you can see in the film proves themselves to be quite a formidable opponent. It's already 3 months when it was shown at theaters, yet no word on movie 2 or when will it come out. The suspense is killing me.
