Read the Girls und Panzer manga main series (and Motto Love Love, twice). I enjoyed Yukari’s enthusiasm, but I liked the anime’s structure more. I’m surprised the main series didn’t put as much emphasis on the crews as the anime. Elements of it were clearly there, they just never got into it. One of my favorite things about the show is how all the crews have different reasons for taking Tankery. For many of them, Tankery isn’t their goal, it’s how they’re going to achieve their goal. This adds so much depth to the big cast and adds credibility to the show’s absurd premise. I was hoping the manga would go even deeper into that, since I figured they wouldn’t be as restricted by time as the show, but they never bothered. I did really like Erika confronting Miho about abandoning her old school. Didn’t even occur to me that Miho leaving would hurt them that much. Rewatching the anime as well, because I’m still obsessing over this.
Also, Shiho x Chiyo is my new OTP.
