Cute.. I hope they don't make these faces all the time though. If the screenshots represent most of episode 1 this might end up to be a very slow show, hopefully not aimless.

I don't know about that. They have tank commander and a gunner for protags. Someone's going to be shooting sometime in this one.

Yes, it's very nice.
And the second chapter is out.
We can read it on Monthly Comic Dengeki Daiou 2nd volume 2010, released in December 26th.

I've read the 1st chapter. I'm getting strong ARIA vibes from this one, althought with Aika as the senpai and not Alicia.

Another interview/video showing lots more footage, and the voices of the characters.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tu-K0gCastM

How come the voices are exactly how I imagined them to be? I must have watched anime too much. (Although, Rio's voice sounds much deeper than I thought).

すごい!!

They're using that vocal chorus setting on the synth just like the opening of Sky Crawler.

What's with the angry snowmen?

Miyazaki backgrounds.

Six months after the armistice.

Kanata - the newbie
Rio - the sempai
Felicia - the mother
Noel - the driver and Takemikazuchi - No. 1121 platoon's broken tank that she spends all her time fixing (see Isara and Edelweiss from Valkyria Chronicles)
Kureha - the mood maker (tsundere)

I'm in!

What the deployment order is written in French.

At least Kanata is just a "second class" trooper.

Yep, that's how I judged their personalities to be when I saw the character pics.

K-ON? So Kanata can't play her trumpet and Rio (Mio) has to teach her?

I'm just wonder what the relationship between Rio and Felicia is? The main pic on the website has the two of them sort of holding hands and Rio looking right at Felicia.

Another Rio fan it seems. Kanata will very probably have to deal with her "tsun" side a lot at first .
Well, very promising promotion. Let's wait for the raw now~

Funny how all the girls are japanese eventhough it takes place in a western country. Yeah I know that this is a fictional world but not one of them is white including the blond one.

Another model country of Helvetia is Spain.
Director Kanbe said he liked Spain very much when he went there with his folks staffs. (The interview of Kanbe and Yoshino on Dengeki Daiou Feb. 2010)

You know, you're right! That makes me wonder if the "precious bell" around Rio's neck is a gift from Felicia.

This shot really emphasizes all their personalities - tsundere Kureha, genki Kanata, introverted Noel, warm Felicia, and pensive Rio, all against the background of Shuko the owl.

Did you watch the videos? They're quite cute. They show newcomer seiyuu, Hisako Kanamoto, who plays Kanata, (Kaoru Chujo-sensei, why does ANN report it as Juri Aikawa?) visiting a JDF base to learn how to stand at attention, stand at ease, do pushups, and play the bugle.

Their names, obviously. You know any European girl called Kanata? I doubt it

...I don't get the vagina part....

If a quick trip to the Wikipedia article on her is to believed, both of those names refer to the same person.

What part of Japan do you figure Felicia Heidemann and Noel Carnegie are from? The others, granted. The domestic audience probably wouldn't appreciate all the characters having weird foreign names. It makes them hard to relate to.

(I apologize for my previous comment. A very tasteless joke. )
