I was very disappointed. Originally I thought this would be better than K-ON... since, well... it actually had some kind of a plot and hinted at something much bigger.. But no, it was not better. Serious moeblobs isn't nearly as good as stupid but comical blobs.

l'll make an opinion about the ending after l watched the last ep, but l'll repeat myself, l don't think this show was aimed to be abount the main war efforts only just a side of the war efforts.

edit after watching the episode:

yup, l was right, a side view of the war efforts anime, a nice change from constant warring stuff, the ending and the episode themselves are very good.

l'm officially planting a RECOMMENDED stamp on this show.

really nice ending, as you can see, stopping the war from starting is harder than stopping it halfway.

After watching ep 11, I was not sure i wanted to continue.  I didn't want to watch a tragic ending.  I am glad to learn here that i can safely watch ep 12 without getting my insides torn out.  Thanks.

I really like this series and its characters. Moe but with a serious message.  Heart warming relationships are always a good watch in my view.  Here's to hoping a 2nd season comes soon.

what superior officer ?
you mean that war freak ? an officer that ignored a cease fire order ? you call that an officer, a person that outrightly shoots ppl ?
l was surprised she didn't kill him, cuz l would. an officer that has no respect to his subordinates or life itself is a failure.

it was a super-tank, don't fuck with super-tanks, and the point of it all was to stop the war from happening, the world as it was, it was already falling apart, the scene where they were on a battlefield (in a flashback) where the captain fell into a hole, it was the top floor of an old skyscraper, that might give you an idea of how old that world became, and what happeend, it was all a disaster in the past, lucky they didn't get off with nukes, the girls were ready to sacrifice themselves to stop a meaningless war.

Note that the girls pulled off a surprise attack, which, if pulled off right, can be highly successful in battle (see: Pearl Harbor – probably the most famous surprise attack in recent history).

The enemy thought that the girls would have no choice but to surrender or die defending the fortress. They didn't know that their tank was repaired (most likely by Noël) and fully operational (assuming they even knew they had a tank), so when they broke out and attacked them head-on, the enemy had little time to defend themselves and so lost quite a few of their men before they regained their composure and cornered the tank. If the 'cavalry' hadn't arrived in the nick of time, the girls would've surely died fighting.

thats the difference that makes the element of surprise so important, l remmeber how l surprised some players playing in Starcraft as Protos, they played zerg, and "Zerged" my base, uppon destroying it they soon found out it was a decoy :D and my 8 zealots were raping their bases :D

they puleld it off nicely in that episode, it's fairly easy to shatter any resistance when your opponent is set to offense with no defensive lines prepared and you make a poop at them like that, pure chaos, l love this stuff in anime and movies, and especially in games, if you ask me this is one of the best action scenes episode in recent anime l saw, l'm looking forward to watch the BluRays in one go ;]

Edit:
Ova is out, and it's really nice, and it explains a few things about the series, I liked it :)

Seeing as how the thread I made was... well whatever, where can I get hold of the OVA?

I've watched all of the others so I may as well have them too. AnimeDB says Chihiro has released them, but I can't find them on the Chihiro web page. Maybe I'm just having a bad day.  ::)

EDIT: Never mind, I found both extra episodes via AnimeDB.

Never heard of them.  What other things did they licence?

I really liked this series.  The OVAs were great as well.

the OVAs were excellent, and we learn a bit more about their world, it was both a bit sad and interesting.

Don't forget funny.  I nearly laughed myself to tears when watching episode 7.5. :)

oh come on, haters in this thread?


Please guys, come on, what's there honestly NOT to like in this show? Kanata is just, idk, awesome. the story was pretty good (although

but aside from that, really, it's good.


Well ok, maybe Amazing Grace was a bit corny at first, but you get used to it by ep 3
