Girls und Panzer was a series that I shouldve liked more than I did. Basically everything about it is extremely well done. There good progress from the start to the end. Every character is well constructed. The idea of tank combat as a sport girls across the world play with each other is awesome, and its executed perfectly. The battles are quite well animated and are compelling. Theres a huge variety of characters, all of which have interesting quirks. To me, it had just one major flaw that held it back: I didnt care about the characters. I liked basically everyone, but I didnt think any stood out, and none of them got enough screentime to really develop. The overall cast has like 50 important characters, and even the main school has like a dozen characters for whatever reason. With such a huge cast I had trouble even remembering characters names, let alone getting attached to them. Of course, its even worse with the enemy teams, since theyre only around for a couple episode and they have a bunch of characters of their own. If you compare it to something like Kurokos Basketball, that has smaller teams, and it constantly brings old teams back to develop them further. It spends a lot more episodes on the games too, so even the minor characters from enemy teams have time to develop. GuP does benefit from being fast-paced and constantly exciting due to the short episode count, but that doesnt mean as much when you dont really feel anything about the characters involved.
