Seriously? Or do I detect a hint of sarcasm?
I wouldn't blame you if the latter. When Kawaiku first told me about this show I could do little more than roll my eyes, too - which was silly of me because he really knows his anime. The only reason I bothered to watch it was because there was nothing on TV and I had an hour to kill. So, as I was going through a WoT craze, I decided to see what the hype was all about. I streamed the first episode with no intention of finishing...an hour and a half later I was still watching the show, determined to see who was going to win the first tourney fight! LOL!
Oh good! Sometimes I feel like I am banging my head against the wall trying to get people to give this quirky show a watch!
Again, don't blame anyone for keeping their distance because of the rep anime has in the states, not to mention the marketing campaign that I think hasn't been properly adjusted for an American audience. Well...I guess I sold it to one person! Thanks! :toast:Its simplicity is what makes it so addictive. I am really curious to see what Gaijinn brings to the armored warfare table with their War Thunder: Ground Forces game. Supposedly this is going into open beta around November. I am really impressed by their flight sim, so the idea of a similar approach to ground warfare is exciting. If they pull it off, I wonder if WoT will start to wither? I hope not.
Great! I also learned that you can now watch it on Hulu: http://www.hulu.com/girls-und-panzer
You did indeed.Well...I guess I sold it to one person!
True. It reminds me of playing Worms in that respect. That was another game that you could lose hours on without thinking you were spending much time at all.
Curses! It is not available outside the US. Boo!!!!! I rather suspected that would be the case. Still, I shall keep an eye out for the series in the UK.
