----------------------------------------
Nice to see Tanya and her unit infiltrate enemy forces from behind with the rockets. I must say, this plan they developed has a lot of risks but the way they are taking it is incredible.

Good amount of strategy focus this episode too. I found the episode overall thrilling in terms of strategic development. I also really like how they highlighted the map movements and key points to make it look the war more realistic.

I'm surprised they didn't show ammunition being enchanted until now, given it's actually a really common practice.

But man, it's the beginning of the end. Everything has gone too perfectly for Tanya, the next two episodes are going to be intense.

Few weeks ago I wrote " The Coronel, can't die in a simple way, he is an important character" I hadn't read the novel yet but is he Tanya's nemesis? or is other person? If I remember some said me that he died end of the story.

With only 2 more episodes we will see a great fight between them and nice shoot at the end.

EDIT: That huge explosion was simply fantastic, I was in awe xD
Oh come onnn, you can't end the episode like thatttt!! I thought something would go wrong and it actually did, damn. I've been thinking that Tanya has become less crazy in these recent episodes, I guess it's time now to re-awaken her mad side.

Translation issues most likely. This isn't your normal SOL animation, lots of specialized military jargon. It's why only the first novel has been translated - its hard work.

But great episode no surprises, "death flag" man was flagged.
I love the smug faces on the enemy at the end, they think they have this in the bag. Hint people, our psycho loli is more psycho than your psycho old man. Time for "school" to begin.

Good episode, looks like the Empire's plan is moving a long without a hitch. They've pretty much decimated the opposing forces with their encirclement plan.

The Empire might win the war now but Tanya's battle is still far from over, We've got an enemy mage battalion to deal with now. Poor Grantz. :(

That was definitely worth the wait.

Tanya & the empire absolutely destroyed the allied forces everywhere.

Looks like next time we get the highly anticipated battle between the 2 gifted by God/Being X.

Still wishing that dude died and his daughter Mary was the one to gain the power.

Holy shit that giant explosion was crazy. Looks like it's the final showdown, this should be fun to watch considering Tanya hasn't faced much serious adversity so far. This is her opportunity to really show off what she's capable of.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

That's right. Worth the wait for destroying allied forces, but save more for another being X encounter.

This is the first anime that I feel I am really rooting to the main character teams.
Normally, i want to see some unexpected shit up and down condition for main character.
But in this anime..
I hope they success until the last episode.
I hope they just show how cool their "awesome group".
I just want to see they annihilate their opponents so much.

But, maybe it is something that will not happen, maybe they will get many casualities. I feel bad for that one who get shot.
If that happen i will just hope tanya will always become badass.

So with the encirclement i guess France will have to surrender since the german can now march throught their country without opposition.

So i guess the UK is going to be facing Germany alone until others jump on the war train.

Did Grantz really die? Or was he just unconscious?

And regarding the Tanya-Being X personal fight, the more the story advances, the more I side with Tanya. Being X just goes and sends people to death and makes the war last longer only to try convert Tanya.

Even if he didn't die from the hit, the fall gonna be fatal for him plus the cutscene after generic looked like a death flag for him :/

yeah, same for me, he acted more like a dick than a god ...... wasn't really happy about they way he intervened in order to brought back a dead man to life then giving him power to ensure that hell is going to continue in this world .......

That after credits scene...i really hope, Grantz is not dead because that was pretty hilarious and cute. Maybe they wanted him to leave on a humourous note D;

EXPLOOOOOOOOOOOOSION! That was the best scene of the episode, fucking REKT!

Tanya clearly growing attached to her battalion now to the point where she is making jokes with them. FUCK MAN! They will all die :/

WOW That was intense as FUCK. But after things going WAY too smoothly for Tayna, its time Being X reveals his plan to build Tanya up, then drop her into the pits of despair.

I'm expecting lots of deaths in the next episode.

Also, why does mister Rival have an eye patch if he was STABBED IN THE GUT?

Goddamn it GRANTZ!!!!!

The Imperial's plan worked to perfection, but now they're coming up against someone who (as indicated by his refusal to contact his wife and child) isn't afraid to die in battle. Things aren't gonna work all in their favor methinks, considering how little of the Republican troops are left after that pincer attack.

Considering there's only 11 of them left, Tanya may have a real hard time in dealing with that Republic battalion.

Another point I have in common with Tanya, I'm a coffee person too. XD

Next week is gonna be intense and awesome.

I knew things went too smooth for Tanya lately. She always managed to won, didn't had any enemy who could oppose her, and her stratagies were always succesful. It was just time before she could find someone who could match her, and it seems she finally found it.

RIP Grantz. He died before he could fuck Visha ;_;

I really wish they gave the 2 randoms in Tanya's squad names at least...They do it with all the enemies that last 5 minutes!

But man, Grantz has been through it all. Revived by Tanya by getting kicked, emotionally destroyed by Tanya, punched in the face by a sleeping Serebryakova and now this! He can't be dead! He can't! If he can survive an avalanche he can survive a direct hit!

Yep... things can;t be THAT easy. Couldn't believe such plan succeeded, very risky.
Well not yet at least since anything can change on the battlefield. Though a single aerial battalion isn't going to change anything. Well, he is powered by being X so...

Also panzer III in 1925 durign WW1 style battle? I seen it all now. idk if I should call it WW1 or WW2 anymore. At least go with A7V or Panzer Is and IIs...

Meh. I excused the V1 because they needed some sort of rapid insertion. Though I wondered why it had to be supersonic. No one is going to be able to intercept them even when slightly below transonic speeds.
As for magic... idk animu always love magic.

WTF just happened.
The infiltration was pretty cool, Tanya for a moment thought the mission was failed but the others managed to fulfill it, it was a great scene,
Also Tanya asking to others if they had "fun" with Visha, LOL. And Grantz behind looking worried.
Well, there goes the possible boyfriend for Visha, RIP him. (though for someone reason, I thought it would be Weiss, and THAT one would have hit me hard)
Poor Tanya, now needs to confront Father if she wants to survive, damn you Being X! Next episode will be great with Tanya VS Father

The after credits scene tho... Visha does have a very deep sleep

The empire completely and utterly overwhelmed the opposition. What an asskicking. Of course now the interesting thing is how much the new mage battalion can stem the tide.
