General Information

-

Plot:
"Living on a floating high school might not sound like a lot of fun but things soon start to get interesting once Nishizumi Miho joins Ooarai Girls’ Academy’s tankery club (senshado). Growing up, Miho saw tankery as more of a chore than fun due to her family’s tankery school – she was forced to practice the family art. However, she soon sees it in a new light as the girls at the academy make their tanks into their own. Pink tanks, cushioned seats, blowing up other tanks, and competing in competitions is just the tip of the iceberg in the tank club. Once they realize what the stakes are, the girls up their game to win the championships against their biggest rivals.
This show is definitely one for historical tank enthusiasts since it is full of accurate depictions of various kinds of military armored vehicles including a German Panzer IV, Panzer 38(t), a StuG, an American M3 Lee, and a Japanese Type 89.

Characters:
Nishizumi Miho is the main character and the commander of their tank group. She grew up learning tankery since it is her family art. She quit tankery after an incident where she lost an important match but soon learns that, tankery is as fun as you make it.

Hana which also means “flower” is the gunner of their group. She is soft spoken and comes from a delicate family with an equally delicate family art: flower arrangement. When her mother learns about her new hobby, Hana is shunned from her home. Can she win over her mother by combining both of her passions?

Saori is the socialite and the radio operator of their group. She is the optimistic and boisterous girl of the group as well. While most people think that texting and chatting isn’t going to be a great asset to the art of tankery, Saori finds a wonderful use of her skills when they need her the most.

Akiyama is the tank obsessed one and the loader of the group. She is normally a loner because of her infatuation with history and tanks. Her enthusiasm might get her in trouble sometimes but she proves herself worthy to the group (despite being the youngest) and even takes the liberty of doing some sneaky recon.

Mako the driver of the group also has low blood pressure and is constantly falling asleep – except when she’s driving a tank. Though unenthusiastic about tankery at first, the hobby wins her over and she learns just how great it can be to have close friends, a tight knit group, and a hobby to keep you motivated.
