A terrible history documentary, but a brilliant anime.
I'm not a huge fan of anime and have only seen a couple animes. But for me, this is brilliant! I've grown up visiting tank museums and playing games like world of tanks, so to watch a show like this is great. It doesn't take itself seriously which adds to the enjoyment factor. It has good characters and development and i think it balances tank battles with school / slice of life stuff. If you like anime, you'll probably like this, if you like tanks you'll probably like this, if you like anime and tanks, what are you doing still reading this? Get the DVD's!"

This is the sort of anime that people shouldn't attempt to rationalise or criticise. It's one of those anime collections that should just be watched.
The idea of a load of huge aircraft carriers, modified into schools for girls was a stretch. Adding to this the idea that as one of the curricular choices is 'Tankery' is a stretch too far. Although it's done quiet well.
All the tanks involved are lovingly detailed so fans of the tank world can recognise them straight away. War tactics are genuine also, so the action is believable and easy to follow.
However I would have liked for there to be a greater emphasis on showing more tank training and battles. The series is a short twelve episode collection, following a group of girls who take up Tankery and enter a tank tournament. However there is a lot of moments in the series where they seem to spend more time looking at the girls and their lives, rather than the tanks, which for me become the stars.
If the series were a few more episodes longer, maybe the spotlight on the girls would be entertained. Unfortunately the series is a little too short and leaves me thinking I wanted to see more of the tank battles.
Of the battles they show, you should not be disappointed though. Strategies on the fly and a good mix of tanks on display make for interesting set pieces.
This isn't a series where you get flashes of skin constantly from the girls by the by. Don't expect to see schoolgirl panties and other sexually provocative moments every five minutes. However there are a couple of scenes that are in there for the boys to enjoy.
This show in my opinion should have been longer and had more emphasis on the tanks. However what is on show is a very good mix and would in my opinion be a recommended series.

An amusing tank themed anime, with girls getting their hands dirty. Slow paced and none the worse for it.
Thankfully without the over the top "fan service" that lets Stike Witches down. However, if you're going to have nationally themed schools using their own nation's tanks then you should make sure you get your facts right!
The US school 'Anzio' have their most dangerous tank the Firefly, this may be a variant of the M4 Sherman, but these tanks had their turrets removed and modified in Britain in order to fit the potent British 17 pounder gun that enabled British and Commonwealth forces to take on the German Panthers and Tigers!
So, a British tank and only four stars, ha ha!

It is what it says, groups of girls from different schools, which for some reason are built on top of giant Aircraft Carriers, training and fighting war games against each other in various World War II and post war tanks. The main character who has left her previous school and joined her new school for the simple reason they do not have a tank team. Unfortunately the school is about to be closed down unless they can do something dramatic. They're answer win the up and coming tanking world championship. I'll leave the rest of the story for you to watch. All in all it's well drawn, well rounded characters, and an amusing bit of nonsense that won't offend anyone.

I'm not a great anime fan but this is quality. Excellent artwork, the tanks are well reproduced and the script is quite funny. Don't be put off by the fact that the crews are High School girls, there is no overt sexualisation that is sometimes found in female anime characters. Recommended to World of Tank drivers by none other than The Mighty Jingles.
