How well informed you are? Enough to know that must be a tunnel under here.

Snowboarding? Skiing? No! Tank sledding, you get in a tank and slide down the biggest mountain you can find.

Defeat a Finnish school like you would defeat a Russian school.

Was nice to see that Ooarai have someone to command well aside from Miho and Anzu

Would be great live in the Continuation High School sauna village. That moominhouse, perfect.

I love Cranberry and Peach design.

Well guess was necessary to be St. Gloriana in the final. Being the only one of the main schools that Ooarai didn't defeated yet. And with Alice will be a real pain of a battle.

Finland is truly goated and honestly should have won since they were fighting in their home turf. Too bad the plot armor was thicker than the armor on that KV.

Definitely the best movie so far. That Finnish lakeside scene was very accurate. We literally make everything into a sauna :D
Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is.

To me this was the greatest piece of art I've ever seen recently. It surpasses the other 3 parts BY A LOT when it comes to animation, cinematography or whatever it's called. Going down a snowy mountain at 100km/h WHILE fighting in tanks.. this shouldn't even be compared to anything that existed so far, it's its own genre

WWRRAAAGHHHHHHHH I FUCKING LOVE WATCHING CUTE HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS RIDING TANKS!!!!!

I really love this series,lawwdd!!!

But this one is different. My overall favorite team in this series is obviously The Ankou Team, but sadly we didn't saw them shine, but instead seeing their team shine. Which (for me) is not bad, cuz we get to see the underrated character shine.

My favorite part of this movie is definitely between The Way Jatkosota's way of communication or "Non-Alcoholic Vodka" and also Alice's appearance in St. Gloriana uniform.

I'm really excited for Das Finale 5. Can't wait to see Ooarai VS St. Gloriana and Alice. It's literally just like the first episode of the series but with Alice.

PANZER VORRR!!!!!!!!!

Wow, Saya suka pada episode kali ini. Mereka bertempur taktik melawan sniper, tank yang sedikit, komandan mereka banyak yang gugur dalam pertempuran tersebut, tembak-menembak di turunan gunung yang curam, hanya saja agak lucu pada di akhir pertandingan saya juga menonton dan saya tertipu cukup 5 menit membuat patung tank dan tempat persembunyian 🀣. Good πŸ‘πŸ‘ 10/10

The anime I've been waiting for.
Before I watched the 4th series, I re-watched all the G U P series including Das finale 1-3.
And from the first das finale, I predicted that the opponent in the final would compete with ST. Gloria. Why? Because it's the only school that has never been defeated by Oarai. I can't wait to see the next match. Even though I have to wait for another 2 years 10/10

A decade later and G&P still has some of the most batshit insane battles in all of anime. The power of having one simple idea and pushing it as far as they possibly can.

2 movies left for 1 final match?

I haven't gotten around to watching this for myself yet, but reading through this review, my excitement increases. It sounds like they managed to take everything and drive it up to eleven in the fourth part. The author of that post also does a great job of explaining their thoughts behind some of their speculation.

@JustMonaka, there are two more films left, so I'm guessing 1/3rd of the next part will be exposition, 2/3rds of it will be action, and then in Part 6, 1/2 will be action and the other 1/2 will be resolution.

Wicked as always

That one sequence when they were skiing down the mountain through an avalanche whilst fighting was one of the most insane action scenes I've seen in a while lol. Love how over the top they go when they really try in this series

Probably one of the best Finale releases so far

It's a shame this isn't more popular just because it isn't on some streaming site.

Though I have to admit I fell off on Garupan realizing I had only watched the preview segment of Das Finale 3, but I'm all caught up now.

Ever since the original movie ending sequence and then watching Das Finale 1 I knew we were all in for a wild ride and I am all for this insane project. Crazy to think that they might outdo themselves again in the final battle.

How does this manage to get more and more insane each and every time?! Skiing down the hill and an avalanche?! We have come a long way from the girls beeing in danger from a tank falling in a river.

Oh yeah, also so much for Momo taking over command and earning her spot for real.

I was shocked to see Alice with St. Gloriana! It almost feels like a personal betrayel!
I guess it makes sense for her to come back in some way though..

Personally I was expecting Erika to be in the final against Miho, both as successors to the old Nishizumi style and also to make up for the past, but I guess we moved past that plotline beeing a thing.
From that angle its obvious Alice would be in the final, but Oorai also famously never won against St. Gloriana! Will this be their first?

Im super excited to see where this goes from here! We have the final battle, but also 2 parts left!

Now that I think about it this entire project (Das Finale) really set the way for the next generation, with lots of the cast graduating and future commanders showing up.

I still think and hope that this wont be the end of GuP and they atleast still do the world championship they teased earlier.

Insane animation, this is what good CGI can do for anime. Hillarious as always, Mika communicating through music, yeah she is just the best character in this lol
easy 10/10

PS: Oorai really only wins by sheer luck again, usually they had some sort of plan but their motto now seems to be "lets see what the enemy does and improvise"

@Comander-07 I do think this is the end, St. Gloriana was the first team Oorai ever went up against, and now they're also their final opponent, it would be a fitting end, seeing how well both teams have improved and facing off in a final match would certainly be a good way to finish the story. But they could still do side stories from the other schools, or even an adaptation of Ribbon Warrior. That one has unofficial matches where they use vehicles 10 tons and under, and was fairly well received.

@Tropisch Im reading Ribbon Warrior, its surprisingly good yeah. I just feel bad thinking about this franchise ending before they do the world championship they mentioned before. I know that conceptually the japanese schools already portray other nations so there would not be much difference, but Im confident in this team that they could make it work.

As for the last battle vs St. Gloriana, it really is hard to predict. Like you said they are Oorais first enemy and they never beat them once, so you could say if they overcome them they have achieved absolutely everything they could. But at the same time the plot could easily drift towards Alice winning against Miho..

Damn, literally:
Authentic cinema 🚬.

I loved it from start to finish, without a doubt a damn gem; The duel between the girls from Oorai and the girls from the [Finnish?] school (I always forget her name xd) I loved it, how the command was passed from girl to girl until literally there was only one left, it was authentic cinema.

I really didn't think that Erika would lose, I thought that the grand finale would be against her, I was very surprised.

And then let's wait for part 5 to see how this continues, perhaps in 2024, 2025, 2026, etc...

It's kinda predictable St. Gloriana will be the final opponent, but who cares about prediction as long as the presentation is amazing.

Alice obviously would join one of the team since the der Film OVA. Two strongest theories were she would join St. Gloriana or Continuation, she was not on Continuation, so she is with St. Gloriana. And Alice could not be defeated by other team for her return, so Ooarai VS St. Gloriana was a must for the sake of plot.

Oorai will win das Finale because they couldn't lose twice (or thrice) to the same team. I won't be surprised if Alice take out Anglerfish, but other tanks like Turtle or Rabbit will take her tank at last shot.
GuP is predictable, but it doesn't matter. πŸ™‚

By the way Mika is really beautiful. I couldn't help keep staring at her (design) and smiling lol. I think she is the most attractive girl in GuP.

I used to hate CGI in anime a lot, but Actas really showed me they know how to use it well and make it look amazing!

I've never get disappointed with Garupan, every episode was amazing and enjoyable so far. I don't mind waiting years to get next episode if they keep maintaining this insane level of quality...
