I am currently watching Youjo Senki and I am wondering, what are some good military animes out there ?

I really liked the actual battle sequences at the first episodes
>>
Can't say there are a whole lot.

If nothing else, GATE doesn't sink into medieval period apologist bullshit. Modern weaponry is allowed to be superior even to magic, in which way it's also far more realistic than Ayy Antigravity Ski Gunwitches Lmao.

Tis is not a recommendation thread you see, I am not asking for recommendations, I am just asking if there are more animes like Youjo Senki out there you see, you can answer with a yes or no or just give me individual titles if you so desire, see

>>316373
GATE is little more than JSDF propaganda, the dead giveaway is when they managed to kick the asses of the US and the Chinese soldiers with no effort

Anon is right, GATE.

About as much as any military movie from Hollywood is US Army/MUH REENZ propaganda. I know, the Japanese military playing the central role in a Japanese military show sure is a shocker.

Where did you read that I think the US is an exception? Battle: Los Angeles basically focuses on the first episode of GATE with the invasion. Now Jormungand is where its at

That does depend on the context. I'll admit that I haven't watched Gate, but from what I've seen it's mostly modern Japanese military in an Isekai, right? Assuming that their numbers are limited and the numbers of the American forces present there are limited as well, and given that Japanes and American military tech is roughly on par, individual morale and especially leadership become more important. America's military doctrine is mostly based on its overwhelming numbers and weapons (its navy is larger than the next 10 combined, it has both the first and second airforces in the world [respectively US airforce and US navy], only the Chinese have a larger land army and that's mostly peasants with Cold War weapons, et cetera).

we are talking about some American and Chinese Black-Ops in Japan in a few episode suddenly got beaten by the super Yamato Soldier that can totally beat anything around, we are not talking about the whole thing about the JSDF army using superior Nipponese weapon literally mowing down hundred of thousand of soldiers from the isekai that use medieval-like level weapons, dont get me wrong I absolutely love the Gothic loli goddess but it disgust me how masturbatory this Propaganda the anime is

And also It was aired back when Japan was dealing with alot of shit and also wanted to finally want to have an actual army and not whatever joke they have now
>>
>>316381
False equivalency. Let me first start by saying that the JSDF is actually pretty good relative to the competition. They have more soldiers than the Bundeswehr, and their tech is about on-par with Israel (ie quite good, only bested only by what the US has). In terms of overall power, they SHOULD be on par with the UK military.

What brings them down quite a bit is that no one in the JSDF has real combat experience. None of the grunts have fired their weapons outside of training, and even their Special Forces and senior NCOs have never been in a real battle. Furthermore, the JSDF's entire military strategy is contingent on the US having their back in a serious confrontation.

Meanwhile, the United States military is unquestionably the strongest in the world. We have 7,000 nuclear weapons, millions of regulars and reservists who have all multiple deployments in the Middle East, the best professional NCO corps in the world, an expansive officer corps, a two ocean navy, the world's strongest air force, and two of the world's three best SF groups. The stuff that the US military does in the movies is actually less impressive than some of the feats they have actually accomplished in real life.

>>316386
IIRC, that guy is talking about a poorly researched sequence where some randoms in the regular JSDF manage to thwart black ops units from the CIA, Russian FSB, and China. The case with the first two is especially ridiculous considering that the CIA SAD and Spetsnaz Alfa/Wimpel are basically the best in the world at what they do.
>>
>>316377
I'd say the dead giveaway is the US doing nothing when a fucking protal appears then sending soilders to attack the JSDF
If we wanted someone backbagged, we could always just call the Japanese government quietly.
And yeah that completely ruined it for me

Ajin actually gets this more or less right, as opposed to the JSDF that aren't supposed to be fully armed unless there's a very good reason to and their lack of real experience, even the nip equivalent of the SWAT team is superior to the JSDF, before they start rolling in tanks anyway

Say what you want about magic sky girls, but at least Youjo Senki acknowledges the significance of the US military.

Jormungand is basically Lord of War - The Anime.

More operating, bodyguard/mercenary work and arms dealing than straight up armies in war, though.

I'm willing to read manga. Give me a manga list please
>>
>>316684
Okay, you got it.

Kuro Kishi Monogatari (WW2 East Front Panzer Crew. Old classic)
Gunka no Baltzar (Historical Fantasy equivalent of the German Unification Wars)
Kougoku no Shugosha (Fantasy with 1870s tech between Fantasy Japan and Fantasy Russia)
Groundless (One-eyed widow Sniper)
Historie (Eumenes of Cardia, Alexander the Great's secretary)
Ad Astra: Scipio to Hannibal (Second Punic War, Roman Republic vs Carthage)
Kutsuzure Sensen (Comedy, Witches and folklore creatures joining the Great Patriotic War)
Otome Sensou (Handgunner loli at the Hussite Wars)
Wolfsmund (Swiss War of Independence, prelude to Battle of Mortgarten)
Golden Kamuy (Treasure Hunt in the wilderness of Hokkaido. Many of the characters are Russo-Japanese War veterans)
>>
>>316780
>Groundless (One-eyed widow Sniper)
>Historie (Eumenes of Cardia, Alexander the Great's secretary)

These ones I liked very much.

May I add
Kingdom manga (Warring states of ancient China, excellent plot and character development including many side characters)

Bokko manga (Warring states of ancient China, excellent story.)

These are not fantastical Chinese manhuas but Japanese mangas. Very realistic with strong historical element carrying the story.
