11th Shot: "Pay attention! Master Peiper's Tank Rider Corner"

463
A night has passed after the Panther's destruction and we're finally at the foot of Mount Fuji!!

Hyaa, it's freezing
The spring water of Mount Fuji is as cold a I expected
Why don't you stand under the waterfall?

Uuh...
I'm gonna freeze to the bone~
For real!?
S...see-through!?

Tama-nii <3 just a little bit <3
Even Nasa-chan!?

464
Was it really fine to do what I did...
Meister! Bring the tank retrieval vehicle!
We're obstructing the next match. Kanon and the rest, go back!

Hey, Loader! Do you understand why did I hit YOU?

Who knows...

465
That's why you scum
Have lost!

466
And now we're playing in a river.

Leave the tank to us.
Go play in the river in the back!

After that happened—

I'm freeeezing.

Kanon-san seems to be—
Crabby~

467
If you understand that
Then do something!

Ah!

Peiper-senpai, that's terrible!
What do you think I'm so fired up for!?

If you're not gonna do it
Who's gon...

468
No...
I can't swin...
Help...!

It's shallow here...

I'm okay...
Hey, let me down right now!
Peiper-senpai, you can't swim. How cute~

469
Hey, Peiper-san.
What is it, Loader?

It's my fault that we lost—
You said so, right?

Yep. I certainly said that.
Waaah, Silky blonde

What did I do wrong, I don't understand!

Braids...
Fuh...

470
You see—
Wait! Peiper-senpai, towel...
It's like this.
...You're in plain sight. I'm more or less a man too, you know?

471
"More or less", huh...
Is there a reason to feel embarrassed in front of "more or less" a man?

She's so cool.
... What are you saying!?

472
Kanon!
I'm gonna borrow the loader—
From you for a bit!

If Tama-chan's okay with that...
I don't really care...

473
Preliminary league, 7th match! The tanks are entering!
Whoa, a roman salute!

474
H. Jugend Middle School's tank club!

>Brave little ANNOUNCER
H. Jugend Middle School's main tank, the Tiger, is being repaired!
The back-up is a Hetzer tank destroyer, but— they are full of confidence!

Continuing—
It's...
>Erogant commentator

475
It's huuuge!
Opposing them is 2nd People's Liberation Middle School's
T-34s and the KV-2 heavy tank!

KV2: a heavy tank nicknamed "dreadnought" by the Soviets that depended on it and "gigant" (giant) by the Germans as that were frightened by it, it's this one! It's hard to use in a lot of ways, but at the maximum of 110 mm it's heavy armor surpasses the Tiger, it's equipped with a hilariously huge turret and a 152 mm howitzer of exceptional explosive power, truly a moving fortress! One time, a single tank sitting on a road while repelling various attacks "like you'd expect from a dreadnought" cut off the enemy supply line for more than two full days... This is the legendary "Monster on top of the road", Vor.


I... isn't it 3 vs. 1?
Besides, it's a KV-2...

476
What's the matter?
Don't tell me you're scared by this much difference in fighting power?

You're too soft.

Our gunner.

Piece of cake.
Loader and—

Driver!
Well— see for yourself.

We'll show you—
What you losers are lacking.

477
A... amazing.

High caliber 75 mm cannon!
It's a new model that can also fire tungsten shells!

478
Furthermore, the engine is a Maybach HL234P20 with the output of 950 hp!!
It's the phantom engine that the F series was planned to be equipped with, an improved version of the Maybach HL234!

It had implemented the average output of the second-generation of post-war tanks!*

Aah! This engine sound...

Come on already~ I want to ride it~
Not yet, there are still final adjustments to be done!

Kanon, I bet you can't bear any longer too!

Huh...?

Post-war is a general term for the tanks many countries had produced (and deployed) in the 60s~70s era.
The German Leopard 1 had 830 hp. The Japanese Type 74 had 720. By the way, the original Panther had 700. We've added about as much power as an average fast car has!! Tanks' horsepowers are awesome, aren't they!?

479
—So...
Is this... an ambush?

What's with that surprised face?

Did you think—
That I'm a girl that always goes full-frontal?

...Well...

I'm not a foolhardy warrior.
When the tank changes, the way of fighting changes too!

480
Listen to this, Loader-kun.
She's acting high and mighty, but in reality—
Wha... what are you doing!?

When the Tiger was destroyed she was sooo depressed—
She looked like the world had ended—

Ah!

—But you know

481
She—
Grew up a little!
Although her height is still tiny!
Don't call me tiny!

Ah...!

Peiper-chan's friends have overcome the same hardship—
We're facing right now!

Alarm!

482
Distance 300!
Start the engine when the gun fires!
Let's dance!

Hey,
Loader!

Burn into your eyes!
How our crew fights!

483
Feuer!

484
Change the position!
Prepare the second shot!

Feuer!

Whoa—hoa!
The ambush has succeeded!

485
Shit, who do they think they are!?
It's just a Hetzer!

Shit, it's that forest!
Fire, fire!

486
Look, Loader!

They are—
Riding in an overwhelming tank—
And panicking!

Turn after 50 meters!

The strength of the tank—
Doesn't do the fighting!

487
The strength of the comrades—
Does!

Everyone, hold tight!

Alriiight!

488
I was
Mesmerized—

 I'll lure them in by moving!
I know what to do!

All the crew members were covering for each other
We'll bite them in the ass!
Roger!
Giving directions

489
Rotate the gun—
That was
B-behind us...!

Not...

A machine

You're done!

490
It was like a—

491
Symphony!

The winner is
H. Jugend Middle School!

492
I can't believe it!
To overcome the 3 on 1 difference in fighting power!

What do you think, Loader?
Don't you agree that *my comrades*—
Are the best!

Yeah...
Certainly...!

493
But!

We too—
Will become a good team!

494
Hmpf.
Things like that—
The pain in my cheek

Are said after you've succeeded!
Has disappeared—
Tama!

495
...! It's been repaired!
Ah, Tama-chan, welcome back.

How's Kanon-san?
About that...

496
Looks like...
She hasn't recovered yet...

Then—
I'll be going!

Tama-chan...
Is different?

497
Uwah...
Nice scenery...!

Ah...
Tama-chan...

Welcome back! How's Peiper-chan doing?
She taught me a lot!

I see—

498
Kanon-san...
Thank you!

Huh?

Ah... No, how should I say it...
Now that I think of it, I've missed my chance to thank you until now...!

Because you called me your "friend"—
I've been able to change!
>It's a [kämpfenderwagen] to protect our friends!
>I'm not giving Tama-chan to trash like you!

499
This time—
I will...!

I also—
Wonder why can't I stand up...

It's just...

Because of me
Panther F ended up destroyed—

500
Despite that, I am still here.
I'm unable to give up on my dreams.

Even though there's still a chance left—
I don't want to put Panther F and everyone in danger again!

I understand that...
I understand that, and yet...!

I'm not strong enough already!

501
It's alright!

Tama-chan?
Listen, Kanon-san?
Wah...

502
The Panther F—
Has been reborn!

Everyone's
Gotten back on their feet too!

And I'll also—
Show you how I'm still changing!

So—
Kanon-san!

503
Let's walk together!

Scared?

Me too!
But—

I think—

504
It's gonna be fun for sure!

505
I didn't look over my shoulder

After all, I could hear

The sound of her drying her tears behind me—

And so

506
—We walked forward.
Side-by-side.

507
Hmpf...
Finally.
The overhaul is complete!

Welcome to Nora Middle School's tank association!!
What the hell are you making Kanon cry for—
Divine punishment!!
THE END
