Is Krupinski known to have ever actually seduced another Witch and fucked her or is she just a colossal flirt?

To elaborate on what another anon already posted in a previous thread, here's more info on the books in Kanno's shelf, in case some autist wants to add it to a wiki or needs to accurately portray her tastes in his fanfiction.

From left to right:

心の姿の研究 (kokoro no sugata no kenkyuu), novel? by Takuboku Ishikawa
悲しき玩具 (kanashiki gangu) "the sad toy", poetry anthology by Takuboku Ishikawa, 1912
一握の砂 (ichiaku no suna) A Handful of Sand, poetry anthology by Takuboku Ishikawa, 1910
桜の園 (sakura no sono) The Cherry Orchard, play by Anton Chekhov, 1903
かもめ (kamome) The Seagull, play by Anton Chekhov, 1895 [unlikely: novella by Osamu Dazai, 1940]
花のおとぎ話 (hana no otogibanashi) Flower Fables, short story compilation by Louisa May Alcott, 1854
若草物語 (wakakusa monogatari) Little Women, novel by Louisa May Alcott, 1868

>>149817533

I want to cuddle with Kanno and read French lit all day, she has good taste from what I can tell so far.

>>149817497
The wiki states; She constantly works to defend the new pilots in their unit from Flight Lieutenant Krupinski, saying "...and after what you did to that cutie Hartmann?". However, it's generally said that this was just bit of half-joking between trusted comrades-in-arms.
http://strikewitches.wikia.com/wiki/Edytha_Ro%C3%9Fmann
Edy isn't salty at all to Krupi the way you think, she's just bit of a tsun.

>>149817533
Oh man, thanks a lot for the research.

>>149815445
She's infinitely better than that other Gallian witch.

Sadako is the best girl.
>>149817174
Hikari has a nice bust.

>>149817533

Also no Kobo Abe or Mishima? I figured Naoe would love their works

>>149817650
Uh, Kobo's first book was published in 1947, that wouldn't fit the timeline. Same with Mishima's bibliography.

>>149817700

For some reason figured Abe would be earlier, around 1930s for some reason.

Besides Naoe and Sadako which other witches are quite /lit/?

Erica as funny it might sound. Also I assume Perrine since she's a self-taught teacher. I can't see Minna overlook books either but there's nothing on that though.
Really, lots of the witches appreciate books, after all there's not much else to do during downtime in the 40's so why not indulge in some nice books.

It's amazing watching this and thinking how easy it would be for the 501st to just breeze through the shit they're struggling with.

That said, is it a smart move to have most of the top aces congested in the 501st?

Would it be better to split the best witches evenly between JFWs?
The 501st was at a crucial area though, so that might be the reason of it having all those best girls.

And I'm fully aware that the real Rall and Krupinski were among Germany's best.

Dover is very important strait to hold as you say, because all the people from mainland Europe evacuated to England (some to South and North America), so it would be bad to lose it.
Having 501st cover it is vital, there's also Wilma's squad rather nearby 501st holding the line as well. So you have essentially two witch squadrons defending UK.

As long the squads get their jobs done in the end, does it matter?

>>149826740
I really loved they way they portrayed her way of handling friendship. She seemed kind of mean towards other's in her group (apart from Sanya), but when it really mattered she was always there for them. I really liked the way she was very good at what she did without being cocky in a boastful way. She was a very finnish character. I wonder where the author got the inspiration for her.

Why don't any of the anime characters ever have those erotic fuso outfits?

>>149826478

it couldn't possibly be Chief Warrant Officer Eino Ilmari Juutilainen, top-scoring non-german ace with 94 confirmed kills plus another 34 probables (his own account) & reputation as a pilot whose plane was never hit by enemy fire (he was hit by friendly anti-air fire twice though) & he never lost a wingman either. He was also a bit of a prankster it seems.

You're a funny guy. I'll kill you last. You are deluded if you think that the character's personalities are written to match their counterparts apart from the most shallow ways. The characters are heavy on cliches regarding their countries of origin. The author must have done some intricate study regarding finnish people to create a character with such finnish traits.

Sanya no Uta is the piano with a different singer doing a very low hum, but what I'm looking for is the singing she does in the episode.

I've tried going through the episode for parts without noise, but the entirety of Sanya's singing in the beginning has prop/engine noise and then dialogue when the others come by in the plane. And then there are only a couple spots for about one second each with the Neuroi that's not covered in noise.

I hate this because there's no way to get it without having super professional studio tier know-how and equipment to take things out. And even then it's probably pretty hard.

If episode 4 wasn't enough to make you understand with Hikari's falls, then yes, their magic cover shields their entire bodies in some ways even without the magic circles visible, as long their familiar powers are called forth. Strength, agility and senses are all strengthened when summoning witch powers forth.

>>149830702
But she didn't say that. Rossman was telling Sasha to use her magic for things beside fixing stuff because she's their combat commander. That's like saying that 'you have this amazing magic that can be really useful in battle, so please start using it. Literally opposite of useless.

The TL was "You're the combat leader, I wish you could use your power for something other than repairs."

Doesn't sound to me like Rossmann is prodding her to do better, just that she was lamenting on it while foreshadowing the ending. Maybe it's a bad tl, wouldn't be the first ti e CR tl'd something ambiguously or flat out wrong, but it doesn't seem that way.

Was fun episode, though the shitty cgi was really apparent now with how much there was it in this episode, not that is any news. Also they had the damn gun ratata sound on for like 50% of the first part.
Who would've thought that the best episode so far would have least Hikari? In fact there wasn't others much at all either, making it really a Nipa and Sasha episode, as it should be.
The neuroi was pretty goofy, also neuroi Longinus spear projectiles now as exploding long-range artillery? Pretty amusing.

>>149833762
Hah, probably. They better do, they better do..

>>149833802
This season is set between S1 and 2, during that time Eila and Sanya were traveling around this area. Which is why they could have the perfect opportunity to have them on screen SINCE they fucking did not make an OVA for the two. This is anime only stuff too, how come you didn't know this? The two of them are most popular 501st witches yet they get least screen time, it wouldn't be justice if they don't get something at least.

>>149833877
actually those two visits were one and the same, but the visit has been featured twice already, sure this is *long* before the events of the movie, but still why couldn't they visit Nipa when they seem to have the time?

Also, Sasha's mother is really beautiful. More witch moms shown is always good.

>>149833981
Don't bury the axe yet, there's still 6 episodes left. They keep teasing about ground witches too constantly, making me think that Aurora might hop out anytime.

why does krupinski wear pants? is it because she's a boy?

She has pantyhose.. just like Nipa and Sasha have as well. Also, all of them wear pants.

>>149834075
Its to attract girls, she does not want to be beaten by Haruka.

a bit long way from Kauhava though...

>Lots of close up and still shots of CG today.
The only reason the CG is passable is because there's either distance between the 'camera' and the characters or they're are moving around rapidly. Having a still shot of them close up is the worst thing you could do.

Hopefully the BDs will fix it

>>149833014

I could still see it happening since they're job is to act as clean up crew and the series has only shown Nipa as the one who breaks her Striker Unit.

On the bright side, at least they acknowledged the Ground Witches as existing so there is always a chance.

>>149832576
I like how they're now creating completely unique types of Neuroi that have utility instead of 'World War II prototype that flies around lasering things.'

>>149831076
>>149830981
I want to seem more actual evidence of an always active passive shield, especially because you see them use shields for some falls and Hikiari's weaker magic would make it even more challenging.
The one thing I'm noticing is how they're using the same 4 songs in every, the opening, briefing, first attack and final assault. They're simple and solid, so it's easy to overlook them.

>>149833877
Ok, I guess? It just throws me off how free theu are if that's the reason though.

>>149833899
I'm sorry, I guess I don't care enough to take down where everyone went after the series ended. Or open a map.

>>149834419
Damn, to see how carefree Sasha was as a loli makes my heart ache.

You can make anything with war as your writing basis, let it be a supply visit closer to front or protecting a convoy. Use your imagination.

>>149834274
Exactly so.

>>149834320
Strengthening one's body when calling upon witch powers is canon, it's why they can wield so heavy weapons with ease despite not everyone sharing some inherent magic like Trude's superpowers. It'd make sense it applies to body as well in form of reinforcing it a bit, only for bigger falls they show up with magic circles, like in the movie when Shizuka fell, she got few magic circles below her before falling on ground.

>>149834326
It's fine, now you know at least. Also they were 'free' because 501st was disbanded during the time. Eila originally fought on Eastern front, so she's familiar with the area and some of the witches here from before like Nipa and Aurora too.

>>149818160
it's actually much, much better than i was expecting

She's so genki and cheerfully open for her comrades always it's amusing how much of a opposite she is to Eila.
And they say Finns are shy quiet introverts with autism. Nipa's really breaking some barriers there.

>>149834516
>Also they were 'free' because 501st was disbanded during the time.
Didn't they have actual military stuff to do there? It wasn't like they were discharged like Miyafuji. The show kept harping on shortage of night witches so I thought they would be deployed to do night scouting somewhere.
I'm just playing devil's advocate at this point.

>>149834798
Nipa is softness personified.

Soft and comfy body
Soft and comfy voice
Soft and comfy personality
Soft and comfy tail

She is an angel.

My brain's telling me they in fact did not have military obligations in the area, they simply can decide where to go, but if the duty calls for fighting they're ready since they have their striker units with them at all times. Thus, since they want to find Sanya's parents they went back north-east, which also happens to be the front line, depending on if they're in Kauhava or Petersburg or some other place with witches.

>>149835085
Suomus is...not occupied, right?

Maybe they visited Eila's parents.

>>149835160
Suomus is rather fucked if the Misfits novels are anything to go by.

>>149835212
Misfits takes place much earlier than the anime, by the time of the anime Suomus is pretty clear of Neuroi.

>>149834492
I want to rub my dick on those ears.

>>149835160
Not occupied during this time period as they've been pushing the neuroi back.
That we can only guess about.

Is it me or this spin-off is a bit dull compared to the original?

S2 was still the best though.

Now that's some odd taste Satan. S1 was better than 2. This season is easily the weakest, and even with the cgi (hopefully) fixed for BD's among other things it's not going to change.

>>149835160
>Maybe they visited Eila's parents.
that raises a question; the Juutilainen family was from Viipuri, relatively close to Leningrad/Petersburg, if Petersburg has been evacuated, Viipuri most likely has been as well, so where would Eila's family be? real-world figures suggest the southern coast of Finland, but that seems hardly any safer than Viipuri with that Neuroi nest "Anna" where it is...

Baltland aka Sweden/Norway is always an option for the Finnish refugees. Lots of Finns took refuge there during the wars too in real life.

>>149835769
Nah.

S1 was good but suffered the same issues that this season is suffering from i.e. introduction episodes for a pair of characters each episode

S2 was better as they were all established characters who did things other than just respond to Monster of the week.

This season is a return to the S1 structure but at least the enemies in this season are a lot more interesting than the ones in S1. The weather control Neuroi and this Artillery/Pathfinder Neuroi are better than all the original S1 Neuroi enemies.

>>149835769
Shit taste, namefag.

This season is better than the first season. The 502nd are a much more interesting group than the 501st.

Your taste is bad and has been consistendly bad for 6 weeks now.

>>149835849
Might be for the best. Moving stitches are always a pain and sometimes there are errors in them that you can't avoid. But 4chan's images have been slower to load lately and sometimes they don't load at all. Did you try the archive?

>>149835890
good point, though vast majority of the people evacuated to Sweden were children sent there into foster homes, partly to be safe from bombing but also to make sure they don't starve (Finland had severe food shortages throughout the war as the able-bodied farmers were all at front & Germany used food aid as a tool for getting Finnish government to do their bidding, something which Finnish government wasn't very willing to do even when threatened with cutting off the food aid)

>>149835979
Oh, didn't know you can use archive for that purpose. Many Thanks.

I disagree with S2 better, just because it built on the characters more in depth because S1 happened doesn't make it better alone, for me at least.
S1 had something Gonzo nailed in style really well with doing the Fumi magic work on screen and all the individual story episodes that happened, compared to S2 ones.
I'm a bit amused to see two anons favor S2 now over S1 when few months ago 'everyone' was shitting on S2 openly.

>>149835948
Whatevs anon, opinions are opinions. I agree with you that 502nd is more interesting but the season itself is awfully done and there's a huge portion of lost potential scrapped with the creation and introduction of Hikari into the squad along Takami into the season.

>>149836041
Aye, but in this war setting everyone evacuated from the dangerous areas away. It'd make very well sense for most Suomus families to reside in Baltland in the meanwhile till things are stabilizing. Taking refugee as far in England seems a bit excessive when Baltland is relatively safe and so close.

>>149836236
Namefag we have been over this. Hikari was a good addition and much better than Yoshika.
