Honest Review of the Upotte Manga and Anime (spoilers!)

I'm going to be reviewing the Upotte Manga and Anime in a short and simple way so I won't waste energy typing out why the goddamn manga is better than the anime.

Let's start with the anime. The anime is... Meh at best. The gun jokes are alright but the pacing is just weird. It starts off friendly enough and then you get to a mock battle, and then end off with an attack from another school. The ending of the anime feels very rushed and stupid with FNC (our protagonist) sayings "oh yeah if you don't get shot by another human you won't die lol" which is a stupid excuse to not put Genkoku (I'm calling him this until we reach the manga) in a hospital again after a direct shot in the heart. The OVA isn't that great either. It's just fucking fanservice for fucks sake.

The art style of the anime is serviceable, I guess. But when bundled with an anime that has little to no pacing at all, I don't think I would recommend watching the anime to be honest as it's only 10 episodes and you can burn through it in a day. And yes, I know it's supposed to be "slice of life" but the change in pacing doesn't excuse that, at all. The ending also feels like a cliffhanger screaming "HEY WE'RE MAKING A SEASON 2 LOL" that will never come.

But the manga, on the other hand, fucking rocks. They introduce new characters and show the rivalry between the SMGs and Assault Rifles (something I don't think the anime has done before) and expands the rivaling school (Akagane)'s story and intentions throughout the series. Plus it also shows that Genkoku is a descendant of John Moses fucking Browning (which is why he's really good with rifles) but unfortunately. The manga does have it's flaws that hinder me from giving it a 10/10

One of those flaws being fanservice in the middle of an action arc. Like at (what I presume to be) the last arc, they would sometimes switch from "oh shit the girls are fighting Akagane" to "hey look the girls are having a scuffle at Akagane in an ONSEN" which I know would give us information about what happened to the other "incapacitated" characters but I would like to see the action please

also boobs

there's boobs

I know someone is going to say "BUT BASKET!!!!! THE ANIME IS TRYING TO STAY TRUE TO THE MANGA MAYBE THE AUTHOR INTENDED THAT!!!!" and while that's a compelling argument, I would think that the anime should also try expanding on something like giving little hints to what Akagane's true intentions are, or who Genkoku even is.

Assuming the "reveal" was out after the anime aired

Anyways I guess this is the end of the review.

Do you like girls? Girls with guns? Girls with tanks? Military-esque girls? Navy girls (that don’t include shipgirls like in kancolle, azur lane, or arpeggio of blue steel)? Airforce girls? Well... um... have some by checking out these shows?? (some also have their own games and manga series)

1. Upotte (Gungirls. Yes. Not girls with guns. Gungirls. They are the guns they wield)

Light hearted (?) school anime, just... with girls learning to shoot guns and doing mock battles. And uh... there are a few... “questionable” scenes. I don’t mean like H-level scenes. There’s one particularly popular one on YouTube (if it hasn’t been taken down because of its content), and you’ll know what I’m talking about if you watch the show.

2. Girls Und Panzer (GIRLS AND TANKS... wait that actually is the title, lol)

If you haven’t gotten into this franchise, well... do you wanna see little high school girls make a tank drift? It’s quite fun and thrilling, tbh. Slice of life and school-ish. They live on ships, and battle in tanks.

3. Strike Witches (Part of World Witches franchise. “Airforce girls”! I mean, they’re basically planes! Pilots! But also military and navy. Depends on the kind of witch you are)

Strike witches is already pretty well known. The wait between seasons was pretty hellish (10 years between 2nd and 3rd) but it was worth every second!!! Check it out! The fight and flight animations are so good! CGI is barely used. Or I just don’t notice. Plot-wise, it kept me fairly invested. I liked it, cried, laughed. Pretty solid for me. Read the mangas too! This one is really a war one, hehe. Not a drill.

4. Highschool Fleet (Haifuri for short. Non-shipgirl Naval girls!)

I loved this series a lot! I feel like it’s underrated. I enjoyed the characters and their experiences, the conflicts and all that. Just waiting to see the movie translated! School series again hehe, though nothing here occurs at school at all! It’s just girls learning how to navigate the seas and function as a crew in ships assigned to them! The anime follows a particular crew that were mistaken for mutiny, and they have to runaway from the school and all the other ships and organizations trying to arrest them.
