Girls und Panzer das Finale[a] is a six-part Japanese animated film series and a sequel to Girls und Panzer (2012) and Girls und Panzer der Film (2015). Produced by Actas and distributed by Showgate, the film series is directed by Tsutomu Mizushima from a script written by Reiko Yoshida and features an ensemble cast from previous installments of the franchise.

The film series follows the students of Ōarai Girls' Academy helping Momo Kawashima with her university entrance by winning the Winter Continuous Track Cup. With Miho Nishizumi demoting to Vice-Commander to give her commanding position to Momo, Ōarai faces and defeats BC Freedom Academy, Chihatan Gakuen, and Keizoku High School, advancing to the finals against St. Gloriana Girls' College, where Alice Shimada transferred.

A sequel project for the franchise was greenlit in August 2016. Although the project was first teased as a standalone film in September 2016, the format was revealed to be a six-part film series in November. The first film in the series was completed four days before its premiere in December 2017. That month, Mizushima began working on the second film, which was completed in June 2019. Production on the third film continued in May 2020 despite the COVID-19 pandemic, which was completed in March 2021. Production on the fourth film began in April 2021 and was completed in September 2023. That month, Mizushima began working on the fifth film.

Four films in the Girls und Panzer das Finale series have been released in Japan since 2017: Part 1 on December 9, 2017, Part 2 on June 15, 2019, Part 3 on March 26, 2021, and Part 4 on October 6, 2023. The film series has grossed over ¥2.3 billion in Japan and received nominations at Newtype Anime Awards and Tokyo Anime Awards Festival.

Part 1

[edit]

As winter arrives, Momo Kawashima is determined to find Ōarai Girls' Academy's missing ninth tank. However, news travels throughout the school that Momo has not been accepted by any universities, resulting in a misleading rumor that she might be held back. Miho Nishizumi and her friends figure that they can get Momo accepted into the same university as Anzu Kadotani and Yuzu Koyama if they can demonstrate that Momo is skilled at Sensha-dō. To achieve this, they name Momo as the commander of Ōarai's tank teams and join the Winter Continuous Track Cup. Anglerfish Team travels below the aircraft carrier's deck to find the tank and wins the challenges set by a delinquent group led by Ogin. Learning of Momo's predicament, Ogin's group decides to join them, forming the Shark Team, to repay their debt to Momo for saving them from expulsion. They also recover the missing Mark IV tank being used as a smokehouse. Ōarai faces off against BC Freedom Academy at the start of the tournament. Yukari Akiyama learns through surveillance that the BC Freedom students are deeply divided between the original students and the high school transfer students, with their commander Marie seemingly oblivious of the situation. Confident that BC Freedom lacks the teamwork for a coordinated defense, Ōarai undertakes a direct attack on their flag tank. However, BC Freedom demonstrates an unexpected esprit de corps and traps Ōarai in a crossfire on a bridge. Ōarai uses Shark Team's tank as a makeshift bridge to escape. BC Freedom and Ōarai retreat following the failed ambush.

Part 2

[edit]

After escaping BC Freedom's ambush, Ōarai uses Mallard Team's Renault Char B1 and the cover of a bocage's hedgerows to pose as a BC Freedom tank and reignite the quarrel between their students. Exploiting their opponent's temporary confusion, Ōarai takes out Marie's flag tank and wins the match. While on a break before the next match, Saori Takebe accompanies Momo to her home and meets her four siblings and her frail mother. Meanwhile, Chihatan Gakuen, Pravda Girls' High School, Saunders University High School, Kuromorimine Girls' High School, St. Gloriana Girls' College, Anzio Girls' High School, and Keizoku High School advance to the next round. Ōarai's next opponent is Chihatan, which adapts a new set of effective tactics that they learned from Ōarai's examples. Chihatan uses hit-and-run attacks and amphibious assaults to launch numerous ambushes on Ōarai, but the latter forces their retreat after luring them into a trap.

Part 3

[edit]

After regrouping, Chihatan resumes its hit-and-run attacks on Ōarai. Chihatan's commander Kinuyo Nishi decides to focus on taking out Anglerfish Team to destroy Ōarai's morale. Ōarai tank teams quickly become separated in the confusion and multiple skirmishes take place. Miho decides to turn on her tank's headlight to expose her location and draw all of the Chihatan tanks towards her. As Chihatan celebrates after disabling Anglerfish Team's tank, Turtle Team, Ōarai's flag tank, comes out of hiding and disables Kinuyo's tank, winning the match in the process. In other matches, Kuromorimine defeats Pravda after Erika Itsumi followed Maho Nishizumi's advice and used her tactics that diverge from the school's traditional frontal attack, St. Gloriana easily defeats Anzio, and Keizoku manages to pull an upset victory against Saunders. This leaves Ōarai to face off against Keizoku and Kuromorimine against St. Gloriana in the semifinals. At the outset of the third match, Keizoku uses hit-and-run attacks and guerilla tactics against Ōarai, splitting their forces as a result. As Anglerfish Team protects the Anteater Team, their flag tank, one of the Keizoku's tank team, commanded by the one known as the "White Witch", disables Miho's tank with a single long-range shot.

Part 4

[edit]

The quick elimination of the Anglerfish Team sinks the morale of Ōarai and sends shockwaves to viewers of the game. Anzu takes an impromptu role as commander to keep the team from falling apart and has their tanks protect the Anteater Team by digging trenches in the snow. After discovering an abandoned underground aqueduct for escape, Anzu appoints Azusa Sawa as the new commander, before the Turtle Team's tank is taken out by the "White Witch", Jouko. Sawa leads the Ōarai tank teams to weed out Jouko and eliminate her, through baiting tactics. With Sawa's commands, she allows Ōarai tanks to outnumber Keizoku's flagship tank, Mika. However, Mika lures them into a trap, causing both Keizoku's and Ōarai's tanks to plunge down the side of a mountain. As the two teams fight, while sliding down the mountainside, an avalanche takes out all but the Anteater Team and two Keizoku tanks, including Mika. Keizoku chases Ōarai into a village, where they are tricked by a diversion allowing the Anteater Team to eliminate Keizoku's flagship tank and win the match. Meanwhile, Kuromorimine and St. Gloriana face each other in the semifinals. Darjeeling overwhelms Erika, by spreading Kuromorimine's teams apart. Before St. Gloriana can corner Kuromorimine, a sandstorm allows Erika to regroup and bring the match to an even playing field. St. Gloriana then introduces their new transfer student, Alice Shimada, who enacts a decisive blow on Kuromorimine and wins the match, deciding the final match between St. Gloriana and Ōarai.

Critical response

[edit]

Ian Wolf of Anime UK News gave Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 1 a score of 9 out of 10, praising the production, the comedy despite being "basic and based on stereotyping", the new characters that belonged to Shark Team, and the opening theme song. Regarding the whole film series, he felt "frustrat[ed]" about how it would be taking a long time to be completed due to a "two-year gap between each [films]" and suggested "mak[ing] a few longer films rather than many short ones".[98] Wolf gave a similar score to Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 2, praising the action scenes that he described as "thrilling, with unexpected twists and turns", the music, and the "slightly longer" runtime.[99]

The Japanese review and survey firm Filmarks placed Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 3 first in their first-day satisfaction ranking, with an average rating of 4.17/5, based on 284 reviews.[100] Fuminobu Hata scored the film 9 out of 10 for IGN Japan, praising the tank action sequence, the "inductive flow and cliffhanger-style" direction for a 48-minute runtime, and the "exquisitely composed" sound.[101] Wolf gave Part 3 a score of 8 out of 10, noting the use of mixed CGI during the scene taking place in the jungle and finding the characters being animated with CGI "disappointingly clunky". He found the action sequence "more substantial" as compared to Part 2.[102]

Filmarks placed Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 4 first in their first-day satisfaction ranking, with an average rating of 4.33/5, based on 477 reviews.[103] Hata gave the film a score of 9 out of 10, lauding it for featuring tank battles that were "more gripping" than Part 3 from start to finish and noting the use of visuals to develop a story that had minimal dialogue. He also noted how the film explored the theme of "successor" (後継者, kōkeisha).[104]
