Why aren't there more tank anime?

Because tank anime is fucking retarded.

Tank dont sell in nippon that well then for example mechs or anything else.

Get me Nogami and ACTAS on the phone and tell them to animate Ribbon Warrior

Girls und Panzer is all we need. Now waiting for the inevitable adaptation of Ribbon Warriors and Little Army series hopefully

>>153501512
Because the only prominent tank anime discussions devolved in to wifu wars.

>>153501512
tanks only exist to serve as target practice for mecha, aliens or superpowered girls

wait, where is the Panzer 38t gun?

>>153503345
You're retarded.

>>153504427
Well, there's the girls and then there's the panzer, most people don't know much about tanks so they talk about girls.

I think more people here have been inside of a tank than a inside a girl, but that's neither here nor there.

>>153501512
It only appeals to a niche market, and a lot of effort needs to be put into the show to make the tanks appealing and have the oomph that tank otaku are attracted to.

>>153505595
This fight is so fucking dumb it makes me want to cry.

>>153505595
wew pls nerf

>>153501512

Wasn't there something GuP related that was supposed to be released this month? Read it here a while ago, have I been rused?

>>153505429
>Mechs are done with futuristic tech
>tanks are cold war era

>>153508346

Cold war started in 191*, anon?

>mfw your years of being a nerd ruins it for you because you know they can't physically pull off half the shit they did

The movie was truly awful for this.

>>153505595

You don't need to be a "nerd" to see that half of their moves are unrealistic.

This one minute where the show was actually fun. And looking back on it now, it was actually really ugly looking.

Did the show have no money at all? It's so easy to make "witch flying on gun throws military equipment around" look awesome, yet this show failed. Talking, titty grabbing, and a whopping 3 minutes of witch-in-war combat in the whole thing.

>>153501512
The one in the center doesn't look like a tank.

>>153514109
Yeah, I expected more too. keikaku doori superscience vs. overwhelming witch power would have been great for example.

>>153514499
But instead it quickly went to mediocrity when Sophia was introduced, and then went to shit in the final episode.

The soundtrack was good though, I'll give it that.

>>153501512
Because all tank anime are equally garbage

>>153501512
Because nothing will ever top GuP

>>153505429
What is this

>>153501512
Because there is already a monopoly on that shit.

>>153501512
Because GuP is the "cute girls doing ____" genre. Tank war is stupid.

>>153511825
I'm fairly certain those tanks were armed with the worst gun the panzer 3 ever fought with, the 37mm.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3.7_cm_KwK_36


Even they could penetrate 34mm of 30 degrees RHA at 100 meters. I dunno how thick those swords were but a quick google says I could assume about 4 mm. even assuming it struck where two were layered, that's 8mm and she only angled it 45 degrees which would make it aprox 12 mm effective.

Her magic would need to give the swords more than 300% more effective thickness to stop the projectile. but it wouldn't take near that to deflect it enough to save her life.

fuck its magic it doesn't need an explanation, it was a cool moment in the fight.

>>153519489
it's really more of a sports anime

because mecha ruins everything

>>153501512
Because it's usually done with poor or jarring CG models, and the people behind the show typically don't know how tanks work.
