Following their victory, the Ooarai girls decide to take a break before the next round. After discovering that Momo Kawashima is taking care of her family while studying for the university entrance exams, the rest of the Ooarai team become more determined to win the Winter Continuous Track Cup for the sake of Momo and her family.Meanwhile, the second round of the tournament has started, and Ooarai now has to face Chi-Ha-Tan Academy. Having learned from the first round to not underestimate their enemies, Ooarai slowly approaches their opponent on the thick jungle battlefield.Despite their best attempts to be cautious, Ooarai is immediately put in a difficult situation as Chi-Ha-Tan employs several new strategies devised by Haru Fukuda. Finding themselves between a rock and a hard place, Ooarai must claw their way out to claim another comeback victory and keep their championship hopes alive.[Written by MAL Rewrite]Related Entries MALxJapan -More than just anime- Characters & Voice Actors Staff Reviews Dec 30, 2021 Perhaps in a nod to the long time between episodes, the production begins with a brief recap and comedy skit with team Turtle and the BC captain. Then after an updated opening title, we begin right where the last episode left off, with Ooarai having barely survived a brilliant trap set by the BC girls. But our heroes are at least as crafty, and the match ends just like you'd expect, complete with the stereotypical circular firing squad (and I've said too much already). There's a fantastic backstory to the BC team, which is fleshed out in a bonus episode that comes with the Blu-ray.The... middle part of the episode honestly felt a tad rushed, but this is understandable-- the production wanted to thoroughly develop the Japanese-themed team, Chihatan (also a hilarious pun on the Japanese Chiha tank), and it was clear that all the teams we've seen thus far would dominate the field in the first round. Round 2's match felt more visceral, with Chihatan utilizing the cutthroat tactics used by the Japanese army during World War 2 (without the war crimes). Ooarai turning the tables towards the end and Chihatan getting away with their lead intact was a satisfying drama to watch. I do like how they turned what was a one-trick pony, 2-dimensional comic relief team from the movie into a team that can learn and improve, even if they have to be tricked or ordered into it.Visually, there's the usual cute girls riding physics-defying tanks, though there wasn't too much of the latter in the second round match. This episode features the second night battle, and with better lighting effects (muzzle flashes, tracer rounds, bloom effects) from the TV show along with better camera control (vibration), you get a much more immersive and intense show, thoroughly bringing the audience along for the ride. Likewise, the audio draws you in, using the fantastic soundtrack to highlight dramatic moments, and going heavy with the gunfire, the growl of the engines and treads, and armor pings to accentuate the fierce combat.A fine addition to the Finale series, and it leaves you wishing for a time machine so you can watch the next episode.

Same theme from the original work with a new song from an old friend. 8/10All characters( with minor... exceptions) are familiar faces and one specific group of people has shown significant development so an extra point for that! 9/10After watching das finale 1&2 back to back I had to say it feels like the same film and it’s absolutely amazing a must watch for fans of GuP, I must say the wait is long but when it’s done I will say that all will be worth awhile!!

Part 2 is just a continuation of the events of the first movie which is impressive because movie sequels don't tend to have the same quality as each other. This is why people always say the first is the best. In this case, both parts 1&2 connect beautifully together that it doesn't feel like I'm watching two separate films but the... same one just split into two parts.Important things to keep in mind are that I personally would not watch this series myself. I was intrigued by the premise as a friend recommended it and my friends were planning on watching it together. I thought I would find the most enjoyable part being their commentary as its always so entertaining even if I didn't end up liking the anime, I would still have fun. At least that's what I thought.What ended up happening was I was so absorbed in the story that time seemed to go by fast and by the time the second one finished I was craving more. Why though?The characters are cookie-cutter stylistically that its like they're the anime doppelgangers for other series. Theirs also such a plethora of characters that unless you have already seen the anime series you might not appreciate them as much. Might even be confused but just like with any anime, the stars of the show tend to show themselves.By the end of the movies, I had developed a love for the characters and an appreciation of the plotline where I want to now watch the anime series itself and not just the movies.The concept of games of war using tanks from different countries and periods of history as a team sport is both strange and revolutionary to me. This concept alone intrigued me enough to want to know more - keep in mind, I wouldn't look for a story like this myself.The main premise of these movies is those war games. Most of the movie is dedicated to that and pregame re-con. All in the hopes of winning and being able to help their senpai graduate. [Seriously so wholesome XD]My favorite part is that this sports series is better at strategizing then an actual anime based on war or fighting that I have seen in a while. It isn't like two mechs half hazard fighting one another where the pilot somehow miraculously wins. The conflict is intense and strategic where you never know what team will win until the very end. Your on the edge of your seat the whole time which is great because do you really want a predictable anime? No. That's boring.One good thing about sports-based anime series is that you never know what the outcome will be. Its not about OP characters who you expect will win because they are the protagonist. Instead your constantly on the edge of your seat because the goal may be winning but that doesn't mean they will. However, it doesn't take away the overall enjoyment you feel when you watch. This can't really be said for series that have a conflict based storyline because if its not done in a good way, it can look really bad, be it story or animation or both.I would say that due to its unique plot with historic details, action-packed animation with first-person perspectives, entertaining characters, and overall wholesome enjoyment, its a great watch.
