lol

Minna is new Maria?

>>32016386
>29

I think you mean 38.

Happy birthday, Minna! Find a boyfriend yet?

>>32016449
Actually, yeah, i fucked it up... it's supposed to be 39, not 29.

It's a pun based on their counting system:

Minna-san Juuha-sai = Minna-san is 19

read differently it becomes

Minna San-Juusha-Sai = Minna is 39.

Happy Birthday......ya jerk.

Happy birthday.......scumbag.

>>32016386
>>32016545

What's up with all the hateraid for Minna?

Just because she fucked somebody gives you /a/ssholes no excuse to diss her.

>my face when i once showed up uninvited at a birthday party

Happy birthday, Minna.

Happy Birthday, cunt.

>>32017667
>Just because she fucked somebody gives you /a/ssholes no excuse to diss her.

ACTUALLY PRETTY SURE IT DOES.

>>32017667
Come on, now. Mine isn't because of that, she's just an easy target for age jokes. Being the oldest witch outside of Sakamoto, she naturally invites this kind of ribbing.

It's just meant to be funny.

>>32017768

You can be funny without being an asshole.

Or, for /a/, is that too difficult to do?

Happy Birthday, dearest Minna

Minna, to prove my love for you on your birthday, i'm gonna eat 10,000 pencils.

>>32017965

>>32017965

do it faget

>>32016545
It says "Miinasanjuuhassai" which can be either Miina-san juuhassai (Miina-san 18 years) or Miina sanjuuhassai (Miina 38 years).

>>32016545
>Minna-san Juuha-sai = Minna-san is 19
"Juukyuu-sai" is 19.

>>32018122
... shit, I got it backward. I think that was last years then (18 - 38)

I'm just gonna shut up now anyway....

Happy Birthday

>>32016386
>>32017768

Happy Birthday, Minna.

LEAVE MINNA ALONE

/r/ gif of her hand motion on the lip thing.
You know what I'm talking about.

>>32019348
Damn, I don't have the gif one.

>>32019478

>>32019478
>>32019348

>>32019566
>>32019542
Awesome. Let me contribute some Minna too.

Who said I'm 39!

>>32019542
FUCK YEAH

>>32019609
Everyone please don't say anything!

Co-belligerency

>>32019675
Ara ara, of course it wasn't you, Perrine-san~ You know you'd spend the next month on toilet duty again~

>>32019675
To the SPEM Machine with you, Perrine!

(And where did your glasses go?)

>>32019771
WTF

>>32019700
This artist's joke on pixiv was so bad I laughed out loud. Minna = Miina, Eila = Eira. Put their names together and you get Miira... which means "mummy".What an awesome pairing.

>>32019771
I borrowed them for a presentation on breast physics for the new Xbox game.

Delicious Minna.

>>32019863
Oh god. That's bad.
I love bad pun jokes.

>>32019863
your jpnz is better than mine, I only got the katakanas

I don't suppose you're high level enough to translate the 3 new profiles at Humicane's site..?

>>32020132
No one here is high-level enough to do those. And if someone is, he's too lazy.

>>32020132
Well, the thread on animeSuki's forums finally brought them to the attention of Selkirk, so "official" profiles should be availabe in a few days.

My half-assed quickie blurbs for them are:
Raisa (or Raissa, depending) Pöttgen(the short-haired blonde). She's based, as far as I can tell, on Rainer Pöttgen the real Marseille's Wingman in North Africa.

Her familiar is a Shrike(a type of bird), and she flies as Marseille's wingman in the JFW Africa Corps. She's devoted to Marseille, and generally puts her military advancement and combat achievements over her own, working solely to cover and protect Marseille as she fights.

Matilda
Based on Mathew P. Letuku, an African Prisoner of War who became a Manservent to the real Marseile, Matilda is an African Witch who's tribal god take the form of an Eagle. She was charged to go and aid Marseille any way she could (to aid The Great Eagle).

She works as Marseille's buttler, and fights in a special ground attack unit because she has a fear of flying. She does not have a familiar because she uses a different style of magic.

Alexandra I Pokryshkin (based on Alexander Ivanovitch Pokryshkin) is an Orussian witch with the 502nd JFW. Because of an early mechanical background from her parents, she loves striker units and the mechanics of the magic circuits, and hates seeing them damaged or abused, but because she's part of the frontlines of the war, she sees quite a lot of it.

The last line of her bio is a quote: "Nippa, You're in Time Out!" hinting that Nikka Katajainen is currently in the 502, since she has a history of destroying striker units.

>>32020557
Forgot my pic....

>>32020608
Polar-bear-chan is adorable.

happy birthday minna!

The lack of Erica with Fish in this thread is disturbing.

>>32020557
I guess I'll knock up some new profiles then.

>>32020557
>>32021510
Aww, silly me, jumping the gun.

I wish there was more stuff about Rudel.

Happy Birthday, dearest Minna

>>32016545
>8 is 9
back to elementary japanese for you

>>32021618

>>32022013
Already have that, and besides isn't that unofficial?

Happy Birthday, sexy redhead of Karlsland.

Holy shit, it's Minna's birthday?

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY TOO

>>32022013
it says some thing about witches' ages
only thing I can make out is "16 and over = granny" and that 4-7 is "Strike Zone"

Rudel, great Nazi or greatest Nazi?

>>32022120
It is indeed unofficial. I mean come on; that is one ugly picture that doesn't even come close to Fumikane's style.

a joke about age?

Was ist das?

Holy shit an anime that take place during WW II! I believe I have now found the best anime ever!

Sanya has nothing on the MOEdar version of the Me 262.

>>32028720
oooooooo.... Night fight schwalbe.... nice got any with the 50mm cannon?

>>32028754
You mean the U4 variant?

>>32028928
forgot my pic.

>>32028720

>>32028953
Yes! but I got one better, to bad I dont have a picture of it flying or with its wings attached

So in Strike Whitches did WW2 ever take place or did everyone just foret their troubles and unite into one happy superpower?

>>32029010
All I have is some pics of it on land. This is of the same plane I posted earlier.

>>32029053
The Neuroi invaded prior to the opening of World War II. There is some conflicting info on whether or not WWI took place. Mio does mention The Great War in one episode though. One more Me 262-1aU4 pic for those who may be interested.

>>32029074
Oh I was talking about the Horten Brother's flying wing. When I said I wish I had a picture of it with its wing attached or a picture of it flying. But a Me 262-U4 flying picture would be cool too

>>32029166
Ya Im watching the first episode right now but I saw what looked like the Akagi, or mabe the Hyru. But those were destroyed at the Battle of Midway. And plus Japan seemed to be a thriving non fire bombed country. So I guess WW2 didnt happen?

>>32029053
Officially, the world has been at war with the Neuroi since the equivalent of World War I (the First Great War, though there had been minor, small-scale battles and incidents before then) since then Neuroi backed down, but there was a great resurgence of them in '39 (coinciding with the start of world War II).

Basically, the world united together(instead of taking sides against each other) to repel the Neuroi, and thus most of the events that occured after World War I that set the stage for World War II never occurred. Not that the countries all like each other, but there was a combination of need to keep civil alliances with other coupled with a lack of strife inducing elements that followed the war in out time mean the elements that drove World War II did not occur In their timeline.

>>32029223
Now that would be interesting to see. There would have been all sorts of cool Luftwaffe designs running around if the war had been a bit longer. Posting Karaya One to make this a little more Strike Witches related.

I miss Strike Witches.

When does season 2 start?

>>32029333
This is what I meant by conflicting evidence for WWI. Mio states that if the Neuroi would have invaded they would be fighting each other like in The Great War. So either a) The First World War happened, or b) there is another war which they refer to as The Great War.

>>32029398
Sometime in the summer.

BV 155

>>32029332
Is that one of the new 1-Ac models made by that private group?

>>32029425
Or maybe the subbers got it wrong.

>>32029573
That could be, or maybe it was a flub by the production staff. It seems like most of the backstory was done after the series was in production or completed.

>>32029425
>>32029573

Actually, the TV series seems to have used a slightly different timeline to the expanded universe works, where the Neuroi simply appeared out of the blue in '39 with no warning. In that case, things should have been very different, but what with England still running it's Empire as Brittania, and countries like Ostmark and Venenzia still existing (corresponding with European nations that broke apart after World War I like the Ottoman empire) it seems that whatever happened prior to the Neuroi's arrival is very different than our history....

>>32029554
ya its actually an old 262 with new engines and some replaced parts

Some um why do they not wear pants?

>>32030022
because no one would watch it otherwise.

Kinda ruins it for me but I just dont pay attention to it i guess

>>32030022
I think they get shredded by the striker units alternate dimension.

So they dont bother wearing them.

>>32030022
Because pants interfere with contact with the striker. All the other women copied what the Witches were doing because the Witches are like God-Tier heroes.

Well one thing I dont like about the anime is that the Akagi is still afloat. Id rather see it like this

>>32030449
count.
but if the Bismark, Tirpitz, or the Arizona, are still afloat, I wouldnt mind seeing them.

RILLY RILLY MARLEEEEEEENNNNN

>>32030547
That's an iceberg in the background, yeah?
Thought it was the fucking Chronosphere for a second.

>>32030982
Its Norway

Oh well, Is there a German in this anime?

>>32031262
Most of the thread is about Germans. Rudel related.

>>32031442
Oh. What about Soviet then?

>>32031879
they were wiped out by Finland

>>32031981
Soviet Union always has high casualties just look at how many it took to destroy the 700,000 or so in the German 6th Army at Stalingrad

>>32016386

They say she is 18 but adding 10 years seems about right, in fact they should do that to some of the others. Mio, Trude, Eila, Shirley

>>32031879

Anyways what countries are involed then? Germany, Japan, Italy, France (lol), Britan, and who else?

>>32031981
Damn near... there's a cast of about a hundred named witches in total(including the Series, Novels, manga, and Web and Magazine characters), and only five of them are Orussian... of them, only Sanya and Alexandra have Official art.

>>32032225

Suomus (Finland)
Fuso (Japan)
Karlsland (Germany)
Britannia (England)
Liberion (America)
Romagna (Italy)
Hispania (Spain, no representative witches yet)
Gallia (France)
Orussia (Russia)
Venenzia (A weird bit on the Mediteranian made up of part of Italy and Circa WWI Austria-Hungary. No Witches)
Ostmark (The Rest of Austria-Hungary, No Witches)
Baltland (A blend of Norway and Sweeden, Witches)

>>32032225
Basic info on the girls from the show.

[a/, i am proud

>>32032853
We've had threads last for 20+ hours all the time... the hardest part is pacing ourselves so we don't blow out the image reply limit.

of the three from germany. Only one of them is in the Luftwaffe, the other two look like they're in the wermacht.

>>32032783
Thats very handy
in return ill just post a Fw190d-9 (Ta152)

>>32033045
They are Luftwaffe. The designers went a bit loose with the uniforms though.

>>32033254
Ya. Only one wears a luftwaffe uniform. Damn I wish I had bought that one I had found in an antique shop now

>>32033228
That's nice. I am working on a model of Barkhorn's Dora-9 as we speak.

>>32033295
I just finnished a model of a Dornier Do 335 Pfeil

>>32033045
Actually, no, they're all in the Luftwaffe.

Minna is from the JG-3, Hartmann and Barkhorn are both JG-52.

Hartmann is wearing the Luftwaffe flight uniform(officers were allowed to wear a leather jacket as long as it had the unit colours) while Barkhorn is in Officer's Dress Uniform. Minna's looks more like an Army officer's uniform, but I think she may be wearing an older officer's uniform instead...

>>32033394
Not Officers, I mean Fighter Pilots.

>>32033347
You able to post a pic? I would offer the same of my Fw-190D-9 but my batteries are dead. In return a shitty pic of a Bf-109G-6 Hartmann I built.

>>32033394
Erica's uni always looked like cross between the leather jacket Bubi wore all the time and the panzer jacket the Luftwaffe adopted in '42 to me.

Some of my other models are in this picture too. But I put my favorite models I built on my dresser so ya you can see the others too.
Panther, Stuka, Do335, Gotha 229, Komet, and Shinden.

Well anyway Why isnt there A JG7 pilot in there? You cant have ace pilots without have the first jet pilot aces!

>>32033636
I've been wanting to do a Stuka or a Bf-110G night fighter next. Can you give me some background on that Stuka kit of your's? Like the company and whether or it made for a good build, etc?

>>32033636
Oh and word of advise for anyone looking for a model of the Gotha 229 do not get the Dragon model kit of it. The model doesnt go together properly. I had to go out and find a magazine article that said how to put it together

>>32033670
No one from JG 7 yet, but there is Helma Lennartz.

>>32033754
I got the stuka from a family run store in Pittsburg. The model kit itself was old and I doubt the company exists now. But Revell I believe makes a 1:48 scale model of the Stuka

>>32033788
I've heard bad things about Dragon's kits. I was eying a nightfighter 262 by them, but the bad press chased me away from it.

>>32033670

Marseille was in the JG-27 before she was assigned to the JFW Africa, if I remember correctly.

And Helma Lennartz DOES pilot a Jet engine Striker ME-262

>>32033832
But the model was easy to build and I completed rather quickly. I got it as a gift for somebody when I completed it but I havent had the time to give it to that person yet

>>32033822
I call dibs on Helma as my waifu when S2 starts.

>>32033867
Oh, damn, JG7 not 27.. I gotta try and friggin read posts before I respond.

>>32033822
I take that back, Lennartz did do some time with JG 7.

>>32030449
Bit late in the thread but, IIRC the Akagi was sunk during the course of the show.

>>32033867
They need someone like Oberst Steinhof of J/G 7

>>32034114
Shh I havent gotten that far yet!
