Line 45:
* Yukari sneaks onto other schools' ships (Saunders and Anzio) as pre-match "reconnaissance," each time making an audiovisual recording — to which she attaches [[Closing Credits]], including "special thanks" to the schools she was spying on.
* It's a bit [[META]], but a couple of viewers commented on a scene from OVA 7, "This is the Real Anzio Battle!", in which Hippo Team fires at Anglerfish during practice. One viewer remarked that Miho doesn't flinch at all as the StuG III's shot flies past her. Another replied, "Look at her face. Miho is genuinely disappointed at your marksmanship."
** When MihoAnglerfish fires back, Oryou, Saemonza, and Erwin are shown reacting to the impact of the Panzer IV's shot. It's still the relatively low-velocity short-barreled 75mm gun, not yet the upgraded version, and at a range of 1500 meters, but the Hippo girls are '''very''' shaken by the hit. [[Wingding Eyes|Oryou has "X" eyes, Erwin has swirly eyes]], and Saemonza has a wide, wavering stream of tears down each cheek. "Practice ammo or not, that stings!"<ref>Anglerfish shot them at pointblank range just shortly before, so it's odd that they seem so stunned by this shot.</ref>
* During practice for the Anzio battle, a burst of machine gun fire from Duck Team goads Turtle Team — specifically Momo, because Anzu refuses to take charge and Yuzu is just driving where she's told — into chasing them all over the place. The chase becomes a [[Funny Background Event]] for Hippo's shoot-out with Anglerfish. Then Duck leads Turtle in circles around Rabbit Team, and one of the [[CloudcuckoolanderThe Ditz|sillier]] Rabbit girls remarks, "You'll all turn into butter."<ref> Referring to a children's book from the late 19th Century in which tigers chasing each other around a tree melted into butter; the book is now regarded as racist in the West due to stereotyping of the human main character, but The Other Wiki says it remains popular in Japan.</ref>
* When Duck Team shoots Pepperoni's CV.33 tankette, it crashes and winds up basically standing on its tail, almost straight up. Then Pepperoni opens the hatch, [[What an Idiot!|leans out too quickly, loses her balance]], and frantically waves her arms in circles for a second or three before falling out of her tankette.
* In ''Der Film'', Chi-Ha-Tan Academy, which bases itself on the principles of the [[Katanas of the Rising Sun|Imperial Japanese Army]], tries a "[[Attack! Attack! Attack!|Banzai]] [[Zerg Rush|charge]]" and gets slaughtered. They're allied with Oarai at the moment, and Miho orders a retreat and regroup, which horrifies the two surviving Chi-Ha-Tan tank commanders. "Turn our backs to the enemy?!" One of them continues to protest — while Mallard Team's Char B1 repeatedly '''shoves''' her light tank withtoward the Charrally B1point.
* Later in ''Der Film'', Miho visits her old bedroom at the Nishizumi [[Big Fancy House]]. Everything has been left unchanged ... including the ''Panzerfaust'' anti-tank weapon '''adorned with a pink ribbon tied in a bow'''. [[Fridge Logic|Why does a tankery player even '''have''' an infantry anti-tank weapon?]]
* At the start of a [[Bar Brawl]] in ''Das Finale'', a [[Japanese Delinquents|bad-tempered]] [[Huge Schoolgirl|Huge Sailor Girl]] attacks Miho ... [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEtYG8umJSE who apologetically dodges every punch or kick the other girl throws]. As a crowning touch, Miho bows just as the big girl rushes her, the top of her head meets the pit of the attacker's stomach, and then our heroine straightens up, '''accidentally lifting the sailor off the deck''' '''''JUST''''' by straightening up (Miho's got '''some''' neck and waist muscles!), and unintentionally throws her to knock down three '''more''' sailor girls. Then the fight escalates as the sailors pull weapons....
== ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'' ==
 
* [[Recap Episode]] 10.5 revealed that Nonna keeps a "Katyusha diary." In spinoff manga ''Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!'', Katyusha believes this is a list of things she's done that Nonna might feel a grudge about; one of them, she imagines, is [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|"Cheeky despite being small."]] Thinking that (accidentally) [[Eye Scream|poking Nonna in both eyes]] pushed it entirely too far<ref>Although she rated it as only '''half''' as many grudge points as her cheekiness</ref>, Katyusha goes into the [[Pose of Supplication]], [http://www.mangahere.co/manga/girls_panzer_motto_love_love_sakusen_desu/c002/13.html waving a little white flag], and ready to offer money and what might be a favorite model tank with her apology. (It's hinted the diary actually describes things Nonna finds especially '''cute''' about Katyusha.)
* After cleaning the Swimming Club's spare pool, the tankery team will have a [[Pool Episode|pool party]]. Well, it turns out to be after Sodoko of the Morals Committee gets fed up with the others' silly horseplay and summons over 100 Morals Committee members [[Inexplicably Identical Individuals|who all look as if they're her relatives]] to do all the cleaning themselves. "[[All According to Plan|Just As Planned]]," the Student Council president chuckles; even Momo is grinning.
* Alisa comes to spy on Oarai. Her [[Paper-Thin Disguise]] consists of dark glasses with an attached bulbous nose that doesn't even remotely match the color of her skin. Oh, and falsies to upgrade her bust size. "I'm just an American who loves Panzerkraft~!" The Automotive Club recognize that she's a suspicious character ('''everybody''' who notices her recognizes that) and bring her to the rest of the tankery team, where she realizes she's infiltrated ... the pool party. And then she finds that Kay and Naomi were '''invited'''!
* Darjeeling reads a novel about [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|"earnest love" at an all-girls school]] and it [[Luminescent Blush|gives her ideas]] ... such as inviting Orange Pekoe to call her "[[Onee-Sama]]." Then Darjeeling and Assam get into a [[Tug Lover War]] over the smaller girl. Though petite, Orange Pekoe '''is''', as a narrative note points out, the tank gun's loader, and she's thus strong enough to [[Put Their Heads Together]].
Line 65 ⟶ 67:
** Alas, Maho's skills don't include cutting cake, as she slices the cake Miho sent into irregularly curved segments of odd sizes.
** Maho shows off her "hidden talent" of imitation. Swiftly doing her hair up in Darjeeling's braid, she raises a teacup and asks, "Do you know this saying?" Erika recognizes the line that follows as a quote from Heinz Guderian,<ref>Maho quoted it in Episode 10.</ref> one of the architects of Germany's (and thus Kuromorimine's, and indeed much of our modern world's) tank doctrine, but doesn't recognize that just now Maho is imitating '''Darjeeling''' saying it. In any case, quoting the Sun Tzu of tankery does not reassure her commanders....
** After the commanders realize that Maho really just wants to spend Christmas with them, it's time for presents<ref>Sent by Oarai; there's a hint that most were picked out by Student Council President Anzu Kadotani</ref>! The Maus commander is ... displeased ... to find the gift she receives is a model of the Type 89 which climbed onto her tank; likewise, [[Fan Nickname|Jagdpanther-chan]] isn't happy to get a Hetzer model (during their match, her tank was dogged by the Oarai Student Council's Hetzer, which broke her tracks '''twice'''). A Panther commander who panicked when Turtle Team slipped into the formation gets another Hetzer, and declares it's "all kinds of strange" for there to be two Hetzers among the presents. And Erika is given an Anglerfish dance costume. (Maho thinks their barely-contained tears are from joy.) '''She''' gets some kind of plushie jellyfish or tentacle monster<ref name="Araippe">An article from Asahi Shimbun says this is “Araippe,” created in 2013 to be a mascot for the Oarai area in the hope of improving tourism after the Fukushima nuclear reactor disaster. “Araippe” is portrayed as made up of local seafood specialties. His "tentacles" are actually whitebait (immature fish) and his mouth is a clam. His tail is a clam rake.</ref>, which she declares is cute.
*** Oddly, the scene of presents being handed out seems to indicate they're given at random (passing them around a circle while singing a song, keep the one you're holding when the song stops), and yet as noted above they tend to be appropriate to the girls who receive them.
** Finally, Maho takes a picture of the "party" to send to Miho. She has [[The Comically Serious|her usual serious face]], Erika is wearing the Anglerfish costume and scowling, Koume Akaboshi (the girl who thanked Miho for saving her life last year, and the only one other than Maho who '''likes''' her gift<ref>A model of a Panzer IV which she noted is like Miho's</ref>) is smiling nervously, and the other commanders have [[Hidden Eyes]].
{{quote|"Thanks really happy please wait expectingly for return gift."}}
** Meanwhile, at St. Gloriana:
{{quote|'''Darjeeling:''' Speaking of Christmas, [[Catchphrase|do you know this saying?]] There's this joke associated with Christmas...
'''Orange Pekoe:''' ''(Soul flies up to Heaven)''}}
* Anzu, using the alias "The Masked Hetzer," continues to taunt the Kuromorimine commanders with gifts reminding them of the battle. For Valentine's Day, she sends chocolate tanks, which they eat angrily.
* While Oarai and Kuromorimine girls are afoot in an unfamiliar town, they bump into each other. Specifically, the Maus commander bumps into Duck Team. "Meeting us here is your doom, light tank!" Meanwhile, her friends Jagdpanther-chan and the Panther commander demand, with teary eyes, that the Hetzer crew come out to face them. Turtle Team are sneaking away '''behind''' them.
* Katyusha dozes off while sharing a bath with Nonna. [http://www.mangahere.co/manga/girls_panzer_motto_love_love_sakusen_desu/c023/10.html A handful of snow between the shoulder blades wakes her up].
* "It Came From the Sea," "it" being a [[Kaiju]] version of Araippe<ref (seename="Araippe" Note 4)/>, and the Oarai Tankery Team must defend Japan while the JGSDF mobilizes. {{spoiler|This turns out to be a movie made, apparently, by Oarai's Film Club. St. Gloriana received a copy, and Darjeeling starts getting ideas....}}
* Narrative text declares "The disgusting thing came out" in Rabbit Team's M3. "<big>'''''G!'''''</big> It's a G!!" (Short for "gokiburi," Japanese for [[Creepy Cockroach|cockroach]].) Not only is it almost never called anything but "G," but the roach is always '''drawn''' as a capital letter "G" which probably escaped from ''[[Sesame Street]]''.
* During a party (in kimono), Oarai members tell [[Ghost Story|spooky stories]]. Hippo and Duck Teams, though, reveal a bit of [[Comically Missing the Point]] with their tales of [[Cryptid Episode|encountering odd creatures]]: Hippo '''ignored''' the cryptid they found because they were seeking a different type instead, and Duck mistook [[Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti|Bigfoot]] for [http://www.mangahere.co/manga/girls_panzer_motto_love_love_sakusen_desu/c029/13.html a mundane creepy stranger]. Also, Miho tells how [[Girls und Panzer/Awesome|her big sister '''shot down''' a UFO]].
Line 82 ⟶ 87:
"'''WAKE UP!''' We're in the middle of a match!
"'''AAH!''' It's the enemy! They're here! Behind us! '''MAKO~~!'''
"Just kidding [star] Good morning, Mako!"}}
** The effect of this on Mako was basically a [[Catapult Nightmare]]. She compares the alarm to "a bout of PTSD."
* In another [[Yonkoma|4koma]], Mika is playing her kantele again when suddenly [https://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=2448845 Shark Team's Flint pops up out of a bush and begins cheerily dancing around with her karaoke microphone], evidently singing to Mika's music (no words are shown). Although Flint seems to think she's just being friendly, Aki and Mikko show terror of her, and even Mika has a few [[Sweat Drop]]s. In the final panel, Flint's fellow Sharks Ogin and Murakami have knocked her unconscious and are dragging her away while waving apologetically to the Continuation girls.
