      Yeah, I remember hearing that the Finnish museum operators were like "why are we getting so many donations from Japan of all places" and looked into it and learned about GuP.
      Also yeah, the actual town of Ooarai has GuP merch like literally everywhere, even in shops that have nothing to do with anime/nerd stuff. The show had that much of a positive effect on the town.

    The worldbuilding with its internal consistency is unironically what made GuP's we-need-to-save-our-school plot make sense.
    The school carriers being a thing is absurd, but that in turn gives them the justification to shut down underperforming schools, because it logically takes a lot of budget to run these carriers, and why are the girls so determined to save their school? Because the school carrier is, for the most part, their hometown. Its not just the school, its the town on it as well that is under threat. With this context suddenly the plot and character motivation to save the school(and town) becomes very compelling.

    I think it is important to be noticed that this show is an "original anime" and not those which originated from a manga series. Most of the anime has long exposition because of limitation of its medium. On the otherside GuP has creativity freedom and some experienced staff such as anime director(Tsutomu Mizhushima, has experiences in Crayon Shin-chan movie series) and sound director (Yoshikazu Iwanami, famous for the sound of Jojo animated series) and scenario writer (Reiko Yoshida, famous for K-on anime) which suprisingly luxurious for a simple cute-girls-doing-cute-things anime.
    The GuP series made influences here in Japan like Oarai being the No1 anime pilgrimage sites and recongnizing the importance of movie theaters, especially sounds, since the Japanese movie industry didn't take seriously about their sound aspects.
    Thats the reason why I really love this series. I hope that even more people watch this beloved anime in the future.

    As a history enjoyer I love GuP because it focuses on what's important, namely the tanks. There are no annoying subplots that span 3 episodes and focus on a character nobody cares about. It also doesn't really feel much like an anime, at least for an anime-illiterate like me. GuP also doesn't over-sexualize it's characters every third scene and there are no out-of-this world plot points, which is the reason I've dropped Strike Witches after the first episode (you know, the whole let's strap an airplane engine to our feet and let's fight some aliens bs).
    The only other anime I've seen whole apart from GuP is High School Fleet, but even that felt more focused on the conflict between the commander and vice-commander of the Harekaze than on the ships themselves, so I probably won't be rewatching that any time soon. GuP managed to include just enough anime in this soup of niche historical references to be acceptable by the general public, which is an incredible achievement if you think about it.

The city, which is a prefectural capitol, probably wouldn't want their promoted show to be "that kind" of anime. The raciest thing they did was the anglerfish dance, which had costumes that still covered the girls head to toe. It's a genuine PG-rated anime not made by Studio Ghibli, offends no one (in Japan) and that's fine.

    This anime changed my life, it was everything I love in a convenient cute package.
    Great video, Love from Italy.
    Also, Anchovy is a credit to all Italian army members (under the General rank) of WW2: trying to come up on top with only creativeness without having the resources to compare to your adversaries.
    The only thing that was wrong with her is that they made her a reference to the bald guy with an overinflated ego(the guy WANTED to have the competence of Anchovy): we Italian weeaboos forgave her for this, but I think that I spoke for every Italian that it will be much more better if the GuP producers made her a reference to Giovanni Messe and made another character to reference the bald guy(with the mistakes of this character that hamper continuously the Anzio team).

      I remember a photo from a book about WW2 in North Africa. Scattered trucks and vehicles, burning in the desert, dead soldiers and living ones, huddling for some cover. And amid the chaos a lone Italian machine gunner with his friend. The friend lying on the back and lifting one leg vertically up and the machinegunner using his friend's foot as an improvised weapon mount to blast away at the plane that is strafing them.
      I was reminded of it by your comment and I think it is indeed true that the Italian soldiers made the best out of nothing and should deserve more of the spotlight.

    There's a rumor that the open, boobage-showing, shirts of the Spanish-themed team were the result of the subtitlers' community jokingly daring the actual GuP team "wouldn't dare" to make them follow the Spanish Legion uniform (which uses mandatorily open, underwearless shirts to expose the legionaires' chests)... and the GuP team (which are known for _actually_ keeping tabs of their fandom, both Japanese and worldwide) reading the joke challenge and actually calling the bluff, the utter madlads.

    That was funny when you didn't realize tanks can drift! All the stereotypes and history jokes totally crack me up. I am waiting for das Finale to be finished, then I will rewatch the entire series from episode 1.
    The best thing about this anime is that it could actually make history fun for people who wouldnt ordinarily enjoy learning about history. I mean, if you did not know anything about the Maus, and then saw it in the show, you would probably assume that the tank is fictional, look it up, and be shocked that it actually existed. Or at least was a real prototype tank. And that would lead you down the rabbit hole that is WWII.
    Also, Higehiro is an amazing and beautifully deep and impactful anime. You should watch it if you haven't.

    One of my friends who I tried to get into GuP said that the character designs were too generic.
    This opinion was formed by looking at a picture of Erika and Maho stood next to each other in uniform. AKA the most uniform thing in GuP.
    I sent them a picture of the history team after that. They still weren't convinced and also said that "CGI doesn't belong in anime" of course referring to the tanks. So I sent a screenshot of one of the later episodes where the tanks fit in basically seamlessly. However, then they said that they didn't like how quiet the first episode was and that it was so boring they stopped watching. I tried to convince them again, and they told me to stop trying to force them to watch it, which would be fair if they hadn't hounded me to watch the entirety of JOJO beginning in part 1 *for 4 YEARS.*
    I tried to bring that up, and they simply said that "That's different because JOJO is good" I gave up.

    I probably will never watch anything but anime for the rest of my life... Compared to western cartoons or animated movies or even real life series, it just wins every time. And, yes, I do not care if the title is longer than the intro. Even the most silly concept works. Just compare is to, say, the latest Oscar winning movie "Everything Everywhere All at Once". It was hailed as mind bending and new and fresh and something that was never seen...yet, this would be one judged as a mediocre first episode of an anime. Seen that dozens of times.
    Haven't watched GuP, but it's on my list now. I am more the isekai shonen type, but like to find something different from time to time. It is amazing how they do it! Every. Single. Time. I see a new anime with an absurd title, a funny theme, and at first glance the typical characters. But after half a season there is already so much backstory and drama and fun you are absolutely invested. "Game of Thrones"? Who cares about that basic piece of film... There are still some series I do enjoy beside anime, but not many. They lost their luster compared to how deep and fun an anime is...even when they just throw in some barely clad girls, tentacle monsters and weapons powered by singing and painting to safe a kingdom of fluffy bunnies...you probably will be crying when one of the protagonists dies, cheering when they are avenged.
    Again: I do not know how they make this happen, but anime are so much better than other shows in all aspects.

    10:45 so as I understand it, in the anime Kuromorimine uses the tactics that germany used after 1942 and that is superior firepower through heavy tanks and cannons. After losing in the anime, only then they started to focus more on classic "Blitzkrieg" maneuver warfare like early germany.
