No high school girls operating it for an exhibition drive? I'm quite disappointed.

Jokes aside, it's always nice to see GuP get more publicity.
The Nanayon is too new for senshado anyway, let alone the Hitomaru tanks LOL
If that was the kind of entrance the JDF had planned for the event then I can see why they were worried about damaging it !!! LOL

Military in Japan really love anime. It is well known that you can easily find anime fans in SDF. They played anime music in their public maneuver performance event. They have helicopter that has anime character printed on it:
I think US military should get away from macho stereotype image and start to love anime as well.
That is awesome also I hope it is team 1s tank if it is that would be awesome.
Homuhomuchopper was the first thing to pop up in my head as soon as I read "Real Tank" and "Girls und Panzer".

I should really watch this soon. This anime seems to bring about the craziest shenanigans in the real world.

I was kinda hoping that whoever brought this Hetzer to E3 2011 would also bring it (or even better: a PzIV, there's gotta be some functional ones around) to the event.
Imagine if they repainted that Hetzer and put Oorai emblems on it and drove it around the event grounds...the crowd would go nuts.

Now that's some excellent stuff just for an anime.

JGSDF Camp Tsuchiura said they could have brought their tank to Oarai Anglerfish Festival held last November if they had known the live event of Girls und Panzer a few months earlier. They tried to bring the newest Type 10 MBT but couldn't due to the concern about possible damages to the expensive tank.

And yeah, I might be a little concerned about the Type-10, too. Especially if you're gonna have people and kids climbing all around the outside of that thing. Since they don't have very many of them and they're very expensive. Since they cost a few million dollars more to build than the M1-Abrams.

I want a serious answer not just an opinion. Is GuP a good anime? Objectively speaking.
Hard to say since it depends so much on taste, BUT I have noticed that people who do not like GuP only tip at 10%, tend to beat their dogs, and have halitosis. Those who enjoy it, all seem to have IQ's two standard deviations above the average. Not saying this means anything, or one side is more correct than the other, just stating my observations.
As for a serious answer, if you can get over the concept that learning to operate a tank is a feminine trait on par with naginata, then yes GuP is an excellent animation. Or if you like Saki, then GuP is likewise an excellent animation. Though perhaps excellent is over stating it, but it is certainly one of the most enjoyable animations I have seen in a while.

It's a freaking tank. What could possibly happen to it other then sitting in one place for too long?
