Putting schoolgirls in vintage military tanks and letting them run amok on a battlefield may sound completely crazy, but that's Tankery, the addictive sport/history lesson/free-for-all that's exploding at schools across Japan! Except at Oarai Academy, which is why Miho Nishizumi chose to hide there after drawing her "gun-fu" legend Mother's ire. Then Oarai is caught up in a Tankery competition to save the school, and the resulting arms build-up requires Miho to say farewell to her arms! It's a Tank Heaven for not so little girls as they blow things up in the most delightful ways in the uber-sized and bomb-tastic OVA and TV series collection of Girls und Panzer!
