Heh! There's a few series taht I want to catch up on, and this is one of the shows I'd seen a bit of artwork about and thought I'd give it a look!

Ridiculous panties galore to be sure, but I like the style of the older machine guns mixed with more modern rocket launchers and anti-material rifle thingymajig in the opening scene!

The last fight scene was pretty cool too! Someone else here mentioned the Neuroi reminding him of angels from Evangelion, and I totally thought the same thing! The part in Eva, when Asuka's unit 02 is fighting among the ships was pushed into my mind at that last fight part!

I want to see the conclusion to that, and I want to see Britannia too, since i'm from UK!

It was decent. After watching episode one of Strike Witches, Now I truly understand the meaning to good art/bad animation. It was a little choppy when the girls are walking and during the dog fights, but it wasn't so bad that I needed to drop it. I'll definitely see the next few episodes before judging again.

I'm not a fan of the character designs and the girl with the eye patch her voice sounds, well, "fake" to me. Not to mention the repeated an unnecessary fan service. I mean, yeah, I should have known but the people who came up with this seems to be trying to make the show fairly serious. They need to understand, that if that is the case, repeated panty shots really hurts their efforts.

Strike "Fanservice" Witches? If I wanted too vent my perverted thoughts I would've gone and watched a Hentai movie. The story lacks fluency, characters are too unoriginal, most likely this show will be dropped.

The first 5 minutes were horrible, but the rest was okay. Charac design is a bit weird, but fits in the light/chibi-like atmosphere. This could be good, we'll see.

Way too much fanservice and panties-shots of underage girls... I don't get this appeal at all. I have no trouble with occasional fanservice and some flashes here and there, but having panties shoved in my face every two seconds gets old and annoying rather quickly.

Not to mention the ridiculous backstory for the neuroi 'brooms'. And really, why not just call it 'legs' or something? They're obviously not broom-shaped in any way.

Nice start I must say but what's up with all the girls don't wearing pants and those swimsuits that plus the animal ears oO? Oh well lets hope they won't get more focused on the ecchi part and more on the story!

Lets see what's next the concept is rather nice though!

Meh show but makes for good hentai fodder, shows like these usually goes along those lines, as its their purpose. I gotta commend the staff for using male bait setups and still trying to find ways to create a good serious plot at least; guess its safest to give the target audience what they want.

not dropping but my thoughts exactly regarding having lolis panties shoved in my face practically the whole time. Occasionally it's fine, all the time it gets irritating.

I don't like them sexually.

It's hard to not like lolis, their cuteness pander to the same emotions that naturally makes us fathers.

But it's hard to get off to anything that doesn't have any adult women characteristics like large tits, ass, and thighs.

This anime is so bad.

WTF is with the panties shoved into my face, and not a fan of the ears and tail.
Ever hear of pants ladies?

Not dropping YET though I have a feeling I'll hate this anime.

Pretty good start in the series, I really like the character designs, the animation, and the technology for fighting these Neuroi lifeforms. Yoshika looks like a promising character so I hope that personality of hers won't change. Also the other characters were not bad, but it is the beginning of the story.

Sakamoto is like persuading Yoshika in joining the military since they have evidence that she is most valuable for the war. Never knew this show has magic powers, so I want to expect more of those.

Though the downright is basically the fanservice of their really short shorts so I had to get used to it. The story looks good but I want some dark turns in later episodes.

Okay, so anime is about flying girls in panties with huge guns. Definitely lots of potential here. I have high expectations for this show. Replaced fighter jets with girls, incredible stuff!

I guess the little girl had some type of hole in her swim suit just for her tail...makes sense.

How does her friend even get stabbed in the chest if she fell and rolled down the hill.

This episode was top notch, very good. 2/5

I'm not hiding it,but i was really surprised when know that this Anime is airing around 2008,i thought it was 2010 Anime(because the movie in 2012)though the 2nd Season is around 2010,that mean this Anime is pretty old,especially since the 3rd Season is coming.

on the topic i already finished the entire series(1st & 2nd Season) so i'll give...

1st Season : 7/10

Although this came first, it definitely reminds me of Vividred Operation. Mio has an interesting voice, I like hearing her "oh ho ho ho ho" laughs. Really quick jump into their journey. Looks like it'll be a fun watch. That strike unit looks hella fun, would be so cool to soar around in the sky like that (but don't show off my booty!)

As for all of the ass shots, can't really complain since I knew what I was getting into but yeah it's definitely excessive and unnecessary like Vivid.

After almost ten years since its release, I thought that a refresher, was not obligatory, but the truth is quite different, and to review that first season of Strike Witches, made me realize some things. So Miyafuji is a pacifist, as opposed to the new protagonist in Brave Witches, but there are also some small difference in the two seasons: here did not know the Striker unit, while in the fourth, the exploits of the 501st, had become history and the units were well known. However Miyafugi proves to have crattere as Sakamoto. Beautiful and catchy soundtrack, not bad designs and scenes, not up to the CG, but even now, the CG is not excellent. Here you see a lot more fanservice, perhaps the real revolution is right here.

I liked it! I'm kind of relieved too because I watched the OVA first and wasn't too crazy about it. They had introduced too many characters too quickly and it was hard to keep track of who was who. This one has much better pacing and better story.

How nice to see this anime series for the umpteenth time, not a masterpiece, but years later it is always nice to see it again, I never get bored, it will be because it is well made in many aspects. The opening and the ending are very catchy.

Holy shit that fanservices were real. Full of pantsu. They didn't even ashamed to wore it off in the public school such as school, on the streets, even in the battleships. Damn, what a lucky shit the male military had there xD. Major so far had an interesting characteristic by slapping Miyafuji much. I simply love her laughter xD. Then, the other witches revealed themself, and what the heck with that red bikini girl? Her zipper pantsu pretty sure openned up with an obvious purposes, to satisfied me. Such a shame, there was no proper image to cleared my view about behind that pantsu. Because, its clearly there was nothing there! XD

Left aside the fanservices, the story was okay. Eventhough its full of bullshit, at least its full of bliss. So i don't mind that bullshit much. The question is, how could they ended up thing? Well, the story revealed to be a long serialization. So, yeah, for the sake of humanity, and my poor soul, i might feel bad by loving this kind of thing xD.

Oh, at least I'm glad to see that mother and grandma are fine.. Well, as they could be dead as well after wars, if they also have talents, as Yoshika's father said..
So Sakamoto agreed to take Yoshika just as a passenger?.. Well, she probably hopes she'll join eventually anyway..
Well, Yoshika already started working, really.. Though, she could start develop her healing abilities or something.. But I'll guess we'll get this sooner or later.. Still, Yoshika seems to be hardworking girl already even without it..
Hm.. I wonder, if maybe Yoshika's father created this equipment, also having in mind his daughter.. Like maybe we can expect some special compatibility for Yoshika in the future, or something like that?.. Well, it could be cool..
Well, first episode was quite nice.. I feared a bit that maybe series will have too much action, but it also dedicates much time to characters as well, which is nice.. It didn't feel like action all the time on the screen, really.. As well as I don't care about action in my anime usually - it's nice that it's mixed with ecchi.. As I don't care about action, so at least I can watch bloomer shots, panty shots, and stuff.. So far - a nice start actually.. Only I'll hope that this anime won't have deaths of girls, or not that much of them.. I don't care about series being too serious, better if it'll be just enjoyable.. But that's my personal wishes to the series.. Will see, how it goes..

The girls in this are totally in line with my taste ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). Especially Perrine, Lynne, Francesca and Erica from what I've seen from fanarts.

This series reminds me of a mix of Girl und Panzer, Symphogear and Vividred Operation. The latter of which was very clearly influenced by this series.

This first episode was really fun. What's there to hate with flying cat-eared lolis+ass shots and a not so serious military/warfare subplot.

The best part about t his anime. They let you know what it's all about before the intro even begins. Plenty of close up panty + poofy-vag shots.

If you don't like the fan service, or like it; then you didn't waste your time trying to figure out if this was your anime.
