Just checked, I think it is Luftwaffe. The tie seems to indicate it.

On that topic, what do you think Luftwaffe "Hauptmann" Asuka Langley Soryu's aircraft of choice would have been?

Okay, first my brain went to "Evangelion as Strike Witches."

Second... Fokker Triplane, painted bright red, obviously. Stereotypical? Oh, yes. But so fitting....

That tends to happen when people communicate through pictures rather than words. Especially when they don't draw those pictures themselves.

I think he's referring to one of the Spider Man movies in which Jameson was trying to come up with a name for the new costumed vigilante.

    Asuka: "Shinji... Where are my pants?"

    Shinji: "I don't know. My eyes are firmly closed for safety."

    Asuka: "Why? You've seen me in less, last night even~"

    Shinji: "Yeah, but Hikari is standing right behind you and I'm not getting in that kind of trouble."

    Hikari: ~looks down~ "....EEEEEEEK!"

    Touji: ~nosebleeds, passes out~

    • Is Strike Witches the one where the airplanes are all teenage girls, and also for some reason they have cat ears and whatnot?

    Yeah, it is. Just as with Kancolle more recently, I never did see much of an appeal in the idea.

    I mean, something like 'Girls und Panzer' might be silly, but at least the overall idea is simple and fairly solid: academy girls driving tanks around in mock battles because reasons. But Strike Witches? Turning Zeros, Spitfires and 109s into flying-moe-catgirls? I can't vouch for if it's actually any good or not, but I don't really follow the logic of whoever came up with that idea. :confused:

    Well, it's really more 'WWII Aces turned into teenaged girls who fly magical versions of their historical aircraft against aliens'. Really, the appeal is that the characters are cute and fun to watch, and it has plenty of references to things the historical aces are famous for. Such as the one based on Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier at one point. While injured, no less.

    And wearing no pants.
     
    Next scene: Asuka and Shinji eat cheeseburgers and set off fireworks, for no reason, while removing extraneous 'u's from signs. Honor! Color! Armor! :V
     
    Depends upon the fire works. There are some out there that require appropriate paper work, and a notification of minimum safe distance.

    (Technically a N2 Mine is a type of fire work...)
