Just saw ep 07 :)

Hehehehe I must say, this ep sets a new standard for silly pursuit of a aspect of anime :)

Well as laugh potential as 07 was, 08 just blew me away.

I never expected to hear Lili Marelene in a silly anime.

When you get past the fact that the girls are basically fighting an air war in their underwear, the show has some really interesting tid bits from WW2 snuck in.

Ep 12 ended with a possible chance for a second season with
Spoiler :
a letter from Yoshika's supposedly deceased father.
Though, I'd say pulling a whole other season out of that would be a stretch.

From this, I think it's clear that no one feels it strange that they wear nothing over them at all.
Japanese men do, in there pants.

Hey you guys, StrikeS just finished subbing the last episode in good quality. A torrent for the whole series should be up shortly.

Also, the first two DVD episodes are out, and they are uncensored. :D

Just finished it. Lots of delicious chars made the serie good (a bit above average). ^^
And yeah, a pity I didn't wait for the DVD eps. Lots of tasty scenes there. ._.

Hey, you guys. Don't watch the Strike Witches OVA. It is humilatingly bad.

Just chewed up till ep 6. If any anime were to turn me into a pedophile loli hunter, this one might. [Charlotte's giant boobs keep me in check thank God]

This is being lauded as one of Gonzo's better works. [shudder] I'd hate to see what the general consensus of their worse works are...

For me, Vandread and especially Basilisk were very good, but this? I like the plot but the panty everything is kinda strange.

Panty heaven belongs in Rosario for me personally, but that's just me and my love of women + avoidance of jailbait ^_^
