Girls und Panzer Anime Announced

Thursday, 17 May, 2012

Bandai Visual has formally revealed the development of Girls und Panzer (Girls & Tanks), the first original anime created by Squid Girl, Kemeko Deluxe, and Hare+Guu director Tsutomu Mizushima. ACTAS (Moetan) will animate the TV series with Reiko Yoshida (K-On, St. Seiya Omega) writing the scripts; Isao Sugimoto (Kemeko Deluxe) will provide animation character design and serve as animation director. Military advisor for Strike Witches & Upotte Takaaki Suzuki will advise the production. The “pleasant school story” about schoolgirls trained to operate real-world tanks will premiere this fall.

I typically like military bishoujo anime, yet there’s very little tank and a whole lot of moe´ in this trailer. It’s as though Mizushima liked Sora no Woto but thought, “Not cute enough!”

American record producer Greg Penny is now collaborating with Tokyo’s Studio 4°C on the production of the “Project: 13 Trilogy,” a series of three interconnected anime music videos.
