Girls und Panzer>2. Tanks We Ride Them!

Can we even work with this beat-up thing?
Probably...
I think newer tanks are better, just like finding a new guy.
I don't think that's right.
How am I wrong? Anyway...We only have one tank here, right?
With the number of people we have...
We've need five total.
how about we all go looking for tanks?
What!?
Looking for tanks?
How are we supposed to do that?
Well, Our school got rid of Tankery several years ago, but the tanks that were used should still be around here somewhere.
No, I'm sure they're here.
Our Tankery instructor should be here the day after tomorrow. We'll find the remaining four tanks before then.
Where do you think we might find them?
We're looking for them because we don't know where they are.
You don't have any idea, at all?
Nope!
Very well. Start to search.
This is a lot different from what we were told. Isn't doing Tankery supposed to make you popular?
A pretty cool instructor is coming tomorrow.
Oh my gosh, Really?
Yeah, really. I'll introduce you.
I'll get going!
Or so I said...Where are they?!
I don't think there are any tanks in the parking lot.
But they're sort of cars, aren't they? Let's go to the forest on the other side. They say if you want to hide something, do it in a bunch of trees.
You mean in the forest?
Um, Excuse me. Would you like to come with us to Look for tank?
Are you sure?! ...Well..I...That is...I'm in Standard Class II, Second Year, Class Three, Yukari Akiyama. Um, I'm not that experienced, but it will be nice to work with you.
It's Very Nice to meet you as well. My name is Hana Isuzu.
Saori Takebe!
Oh, and I'm-
Oh, I already know! Miss Miho Nishizumi, right?!
Y-yeah...
Very Nice to meet you all.
Did you find the records on the tanks yet?
There's no mention of tanks.
There's nothing from when our school stopped doing Tankery.
I wonder why they stopped doing Tankery all of a sudden.
Probably lost its popularity. I mean it's kind of old-fashioned.
Makes sense.
What's the matter?
I smell something coming from over there.
You can really smell something?
There's a scent of iron and oil mixed in with the smell of flowers.
Your nose gets that good when you do flower arrangement?!
It might just be me.
In that case, Panzer Vor!
Panties did what now?
Panzer Vor. It means for all the tanks to move out.
We did it! We found one!
A 38(t)...
It's smaller than the last one...It's got screws all over the place.
The 38(t)... It was a mainstay of Field Marshal Rommel's 7th Panzer Division, and was an important tank in the initial stages of the Blitzkrieg. It's nimble and can cross distances quickly.
Oh, and the "t" means that it was made in Czechoslovakia; it's not a unit of weight.
You went kind of crazy there.
Sorry.
Thank you. Good work. I'll get the automotive club to do the transport, so please continue your search.... We've found one of them.
So they can get things done, if they try.
A Type 89 medium tank, a Panzer 38(t) light tank, a medium tank M3 Lee, a Panzer III Ausf. F with an assault gun, and a medium tank Panzer IV Ausf. D.
How should we assign them?
How about we just have them ride the ones they found?
Are you sure we shouldn't do more than that?
We'll go ahead and take the 38(t), and you guys take the Panzer IV.
Oh, okay...
So the Panzer IV will be Team A. The Type 89 will be Team B. The Assault III: Team C. The M3: Team D. And The 38(t): Team E.
Our instructor will be arriving tomorrow afternoon. Make sure you behave properly.
I wonder what he's like.
It's built pretty tough.
It looks like it'll be able to attack pretty well.
The turret doesn't move.
It's like an elephant.
You Fool! The Assault III is a wonderful tank. It was able to repel the fierce Russian attacks. Apologize to the Finnish!
Sorry!
It has two main cannons.
It looks big and strong, doesn't it?
It's all sticky.
It looks like this will be worth there, right?
The interior should be...
She is got!
We'll need to remove the moisture inside and get rid of the rust. Also, remove the old paint, and get touched up again.
H-hey, Saori. It's cold.
Who-who are you?
Flood Takamatsu Castle with water!
Cross the Rubicon!
Perry's Black Ships have landed!
Tanks and water...Reminds you of Normandy's DD tanks.
That's right!
I'm soaked.
Much needed rain!
You're going to be able to see my bra...
I said we'd be taking turns cleaning the tanks.
That was good. Want to a sticker?
I really didn't mean to say that, you know.
Could you to help me a little bit over here, please?
That's good. We will have the automotive club do the rest of the maintenance tonight. Everyone is dismissed for today.
I want to take a shower.
I want to take it for a spin.
I wonder which direction the port is.
How I want a make land already. I want to buy some things at an outlet mall.
Where we scheduled to make port this weekend?
Which port we are going to visit? I have a boyfriend at every port, so it's hard to keep track of where they all are.
I'll believe you if "boyfriend" means "the curry place you always eat at".
Um...Would it be possible to make a little stop on the way back? ... I guess we shouldn't.
I didn't know there was a store like this here.
This is pretty amazing.
All the tanks look the same.
Th-that's not true! That's not true at all! They each have their own personalities, their very own traits. and they change depending on who's operating them.
Not too different from flower arrangement.
Girls have their own good points too. That's how they get popular. Let's get popular.
It's like they're having a conversation, but not really.
You look around a lot; it looks like fun.
But I don't want any wounds on my face...
It's okay. They use live rounds in matches, but They're used with an emphasis on The participant's safety.
It will be exciting to see who will come away all the glory as we enter the 39th competition.
Next up is the news on Tankery. We have an interview with the MVP of the high school circuit last year. Commander Maho Nishizumi will get a special chance to train with the best in the nation.
Miss Nishizumi. What is your secret to winning in Tankery?
To never give up, and to never run away, no matter the situation.
I know! Can I come hang out in your room, miho?
Huh?
I'd like come over as well.
Sure.
I...
Why don't you come with us, Akiyama?
Thank you!
It's kind of messy, but come in.
This is cute.
This room really suits you. I like it.
Are you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
All right! How about we get started?
Hana, can you peel the potatoes for me?
Oh, sure.
Okay. I'll cook the rice.
Why are you using camping gear? Do you always walk around like that?
Yeah, that way I can camp anywhere, anytime.
Sorry. I've only ever cut flowers before.
Oh, Hold on a second. I can't remember where I keep the bandages.
Everybody's surprisingly useless.
Was this it? Is This it? Here we are!
All right!
Okay. Let's eat.
Right!
It's Time to eat.
This is delicious!
Beef stew is the best dish for seducing a man. You know?
Have you ever even seduced a man before?
You always have to Practice first.
Actually, Is it even true that guys like beef stew, anyway?
Isn't that just one of those urban legends?
It's true! It was in one of those magazine surveys!
The flowers are beautiful, too.
I'm sorry... I wish I could have done better.
No! Flowers really help to warm up the place.
Thank you, very much.
Anyway, see you tomorrow.
Good night.
Good night, Guys! ...I'm glad I transferred here.
Are you okay?
It's painful...All Life is painful.
If this were a dream, everything would be fine...
H-hey...Pull yourself together.
But I will go. I must go... Must... Must...
Miss Reizei, this is the 245th day in a row that you're late.
Why this morning have to come, anyway.
Morning comes everyday, you know. Just because you get good grades doesn't mean you can just show up late all the time. Don't blame me if you get held back.
Are you okay?
Um, Miss Nishizumi. Even if you see Reizei on the way to school, Do yourself a favor and leave her behind from now on.
U-understood...
Sodoko...
Did you say something?
Not really.
I'm sorry.
Not at all.
I'll pay you back eventually.
I was worried because you were late.
I overslept.
Our instructor is late, too. Adults know how to tease, don't they?
Isn't that the Headmaster's car?!
Now they've gone and done it.
Potato chips.
Hi, there.
I was tricked...
But you have to admit that She does look pretty cool.
She is a special instructor for the Tankery Training Unit, Commander Ami chono.
Nice to meet you all. I heard there were a lot of people here who are doing Tankery for the first time, but let's do the best we can.... Wait, Aren't you the daughter of Instructor Nishizumi? The Instructor has done a lot for me. Is your sister doing well?
Yes...
Instructor Nishizumi?
The Nishizumi School is the Tankery school with the longest history. They're really quite famous.
Instructor! Are you really popular with the guys?
Huh? ...Not so much popular, so much as I always hit the target I aim for. I have a kill rate of 120%.
Uh, Instructor! What will we practice today?
Let's see...How about we throw you guys into things and try a mock battle?
What? Are you sure we can do that so soon?
It'll be fine. You need to gain experience. You just gotta move the tank, point is where you want it to go, and shoot. Anyway, all of you head to your respective starting points.
How do we steer this thing?
How about we ask some friends who probably know?
Wouldn't it be faster to just ask on the net?
If we do what need to here, we'll be able to restore the volleyball club! Remember the humiliation when we had our club shut down!
Fight!
It's our first campaign!
How about we go with the Pinwheel Formation?
How about the Panzerkeil?
But we only have one tank.
Okay, everyone get in.
I guess we should be getting in, as well.
Kawashima.
Yes.
I wonder if we'll be okay going into a match right away.
I'm sure it'll all work out somehow.
Anyway, could each team figure out what tasks they're going to handle?
Three-person teams will have a tank commander, a main gun operator, and a driver.
Four-person teams will have a loader.
Five-person teams, a communicator.
Wait, what? I have no clue what's going on. I'm already so lost.
We only have four people on our team. What are we going to do?
Then one person will have to be both the communicator and a loader.
Miss Nishizumi. you'll be the commander, won't you?
What? I can't. I can't.
Then how should we choose a commander...
Let's just draw a lots.
Oh? I got a response.
"I don't know what model you're talking about, so I can't tell you..."
"Google it, dumbass."
"start by taking off your clothes."
Smells like metal.
It's cramped and hot. We're going to drive it like this?
Let's get started.
All tanks, Panzer Vor!
It's finally time to operate the tanks.
So, How do I drive this, anyway?
First, start the ignition...
You mean this?
All right! That is awesome!
Wow. She's a completely different person.
Panzer halt.
I'm sorry.
Okay. So what do I do after that?
You'll start moving forward if you step on the accelerator. The lever in front of you is the control stick, and on the right of you is the shifter.
It's heavy.
It stopped.
What happened?
Try releasing the clutch more smoothly, as you press the accelerator.
Got it.
We're going backwards!
Hit the brake, hana!
Right!
It's okay. Just calm down.
Right.
My butt's shaking all over.
It's really loud, too.
This is great!
I got it! In order to go forward, we got a shift the gear into first, and step down on the accelerator.
Which one sets the gear?
We're blocked in front.
Let's try to a backtoss.
How do we do that?!
Willpower!
Prez, we're presently moving along smoothly.
Another sticker for you!
Which way?
Festina lente!
W-wait! You're going to run into it! Go Go left! ...I told you to go left!
Sorry! I couldn't hear you...
The Tank Commander indicates which direction to go with your feet.
Feet?
Yeah, she kicks the operator in the shoulder in the direction she wants to go.
I couldn't do something like that to my good friend!
Kick me as hard as you can.
What?!...Fine...then. Left!
Could you kick me a little softer?
It looks like all of you made it to your starting points. The rules are simple. You just have to make all tanks immobile. In other words, go fore, shoot up a storm, and take out your opponents. Got it?
Not Really, but if you say so.
That's not something I want to hear from the Prez.
Tankery starts with a bow, and ends with a bow. All participants, bow.
Let's have a good match.
Time to start the match.
Finally, time to start attacking. Anyway, you want to try firing?
We can't just fire randomly.
Want to take out a student council first? The instructor turned out to be a stupid girl.
You're still going on about that?
I can make the decision here, right? I'm a tank commander!
Yeah...
Then advance towards the student council team!.... So, where are they?
What?! What happened?!
That was loud.
You could feel it in the air.
I want to hit a spike like that.
We'll take out that A-Team in the Panzer IV!
We'll help out the Type 89, and take out the Panzer IV first. Our secret pact is terminated.
So the die has been cast?
I'm scared! Let's get out of here!
There's our prey!
I invoke divine aid.
What should we do?
They've got us trapped! Let's run that way!
I can't hear you!
Take the right fork!
Watch out!
Next time on Girls und Panzer: We're Having a Match!
