Giving middle aged men the impression that becoming an idol is easy, then.
So many middle aged men have tried and failed to become idols, so many of their dreams broken.

Because adding tanks to a sports anime adds so much to the narrative.

You know I don't know if I'm just creeping myself out... But that just sent a chill up my spine about just how fucked up that sounds.

I feel the same, though it's because I keep switching priorities around. I haven't finished it and at this rate I'll wait for the anime.The Rich Port wrote:

There's some hope. They can still drink themselves to death.

Actually that's exactly what I like about Girls Und Panzer. Adding Tanks didn't add anything to the narrative. The show didn't try and do anything revolutionary. It was literally just a cute girls sports anime with a gimmick. Yes that gimmick was tanks and they've had a hell of a lot of fun with the tanks, but its still just a gimmick. Tt would be the same show if they had made it Girls und Baseball instead. Doubt it would be anywhere near as popular though, tanks are a good gimmick.

No it isn't.
I will admit it's fan service, but acting like it's supposed to have any sort of edge to it is dishonest.
I can say that because I've read the manga spinoff Ribbon Warrior. THAT is GuP if it was trying to be edgy.
I don't recall panty shots. Bath scenes and swimsuits yeah, but not panty shots. In fact I remember a comic that highlighted the lack of panty shots despite the sheer number of chances.

It doesn't get more inane than "it's not trying to do anything new".
That's a great way to open up your art school year. "My art means nothing."

And I don't like people who like crap that are also intolerant of other people's opinions, and yet here we are, with our issues.
