I watched a grown man take down a plane with a bayonet because he's rather die then tell Tanya he failed. The fear of Tanya brought him to a new level.
Exhibit D (It happens in the middle of exhibit C): while stationed in the desert, the food given to Tanya's battalion was trash, just pasta that they can't even cook because you know, it's the DESERT so there is no water around to "waste". What was Tanya's solution? Attack enemy bases just for the ingredients and water to cook. Enemy soldier: "WHY? This base holds no strategic value whatsoever, why are we getting shelled?" Tanya: "Run your pockets n****, I know you got basil!"
I've heard that in the light novels she uses magic to produce a meth-like effect on herself while in combat. She's not just killing people with a grin, she's killing them while high as balls. Edit/correction: It's a side effect, not something she does deliberately. Still shooting fools up while high as a kite.
An HR supervisor who was an atheist. Yep. sHe was literally cursed to believe in god in order to survive. Being X is definitely uniting the world as a false prophet.
@@nurlindafsihotang49 Regarding the most evil, I'd go toward tax inspector. But it's debatable, and seeing you blushing over being "the most evil" sure makes me wonder. By the way, do you ever take the train? If so, which station, which train line, and around what time approxactly to the minute?
Thats because she knew that peace was absolutely not an option. Her superiors thought peace was possible, Tanya knew in a very badass lecture that surmised that this war was gonna get waaaay worse.
Some details you should've included with the avalanche part. In that world, they don't know cpr(they haven't discovered it yet) and what Tanya did acted as extremely rough cpr. They thought that one guy was dead then she revived him. To them, it sent the message that even if they were to die during training, she would just bring them back to experience hell. Her men are scared shitless of her.
I feel like it's important to note that when CJ says Tanya cusses out God, he means that shit. This entire series is literally a grudge match because Tanya had a direct encounter with God and told him he weren't shit. The Sioux family was very literally empowered by Him to make her life hell, and she still packs them up. She's not just a demon, she's the straight-up Devil
Tanya doesn't believe it to be God, she doesn't believe he exists, because God is believed to be a benevolent entity. The Devil, on the other hand... Tanya is certain that Being X is the Devil, because everything he does seems illogical and counter to everything Tanya is building. Blind faith has no place in Tanya's mind, but that's what the Devil wants from her. Thus, the conflict.
Mary sioux: "you took everything from me!" Tanya: "I don't even know who you are." Mary Sioux: "you took my father!" Tanya: "it's war, he was trying to kill me! What's next, a burglar is killed by the person he was trying to rob, and his child hunts down the homeowner to kill him?" Mary Sioux: "REEEEEEE!" *proceeds to do Tanya's job by killing all her allies due to friendly fire*
Technically Tanya committed zero war crimes due to a loop hole in the treaty. You're not allowed to use artillery in a city, but you can declare that it's a battle ground and that all civilians should leave, and if they don't then they're legally considered combatants so you can use all the artillery you want. Tanya always finds a way to commit war crimes without legally committing war crimes Edit: in the famous words of hlc it's never a war crime the first time
Isn't that what train-kun always do? All progotagonist that he kills becomes overpower mages or anti-everthing mystical creatures Ps:subaru and takemichi are exception
Seems like a nice person to me. She trained those maggots to survive a war, she informed her enemies and gave them time go evacuate, she even tried to help a daugther reunite with her father.
Minor correction: When she was training her battalion she didn’t shoot anything (except the first shot) she actually ordered a artillery company to pulverize the area as target practice. Which I think is even worse than what CJ said.
@@choronzon4828 in the novels the mages can actually intercept artillery rounds by shooting them down, so it was actually invaluable training to keep them alive. even if they make a mistake there is a good chance its a dud and they will learn, plus their barriers can protect them from the blast and shrapnel. (thought it doesn't mean they will come out unharmed)
The disrespect of planting your flag on the enemy capital, whilst singing your national anthem to the top of your lungs *ON TOP* of filming the whole thing right after blowing every political structure on sight has the be the most gangsta thing I've ever seen and I love it.
That's actually worse than breaking into a man's house, tying him up, killing his kids, raping his wife right in front of him, then killing her too, and then running off with all his loot while he's still tied up.
@@geraldovazquez9560 Mary gone complete wacko by that point. Berserker who doesn't differentiate much friend from foe with single minded target being one small little girl who didn't want to be part of war to begin with.
The fact that Tanya issued the warning on that town before blowing them the fuck up (in exhibit B) just so she could technically avoid going against an international law just makes her even better
You missed the part where she basically wrote a book on how to do war crimes without breaking the Geneva convention gave it to her superiors who used it as a reference for the artillery bombardment on the city filled with civilians and the other war crimes committed in this video
You forgot to mention that she literally did the training thing to try and make people drop out so she didn't have to go to the front lines. She tormented all those people just to try and not have to go to the front lines. And the fact that when she made the announcement she intentionally made her voice sound like a child so that people wouldn't clear out of the capital.
She's actually the reincarnated soul and mind of a sociopathic atheist corporate ladder climber, which explains a lot. Hot take: he wasn't evil for firing the guy for poor performance. If the dude really needed to feed his family, why was he slacking off at work?
@@ifdy1361no lol, if you have a family to feed, the LAST thing you should do is slack. Be the star employee and get a raise that’s the provider grindset. Lawful neutral.
In the light novel, Tanya was technically not committing any war crimes because when she asked the resistance to surrender and hand over all hostages, the resistance responded with "there are no hostages, we are all resisting" meaning everyone is a soldier and that gave Tanya reason to kill everyone
I honestly love that they made Tanya more outright villainous. When it’s done right, a villainous protagonist is so engaging. The idea she sent some soldiers to die for refusing to “follow the rules” really set the bar for how outrageous her mindset is.
I can’t get over how Tanya’s future rival is named “Mary Sue”. It’s great! A character is written in such a way that the story is twisted just to glorify them. What better way to write such a character in a way that fits into the narrative than to have “god” assert his influence doing exactly that? True Black Air Force energy.
A quote from the Light novel that represents Tanya the best: People say there is a fine line between the brilliant and the insane, but I feel like it’s actually fairly easy to tell them apart. If by the end of a conversation you’re filled with the urge to empty an entire magazine into someone, they’re nuts. If you can hold another amicable conversation with them, they’re brilliant. Well, you're not an insane if you're a menace to the core of war if what you call God can't hold the heart in your soul...
The fact that she deliberately called God's work "sloppy" and his existence irrelevant to mankind from the start of the series, and still continually piss and shit on a pantheon of deities' plans, is enough to grant her a seat at the round table of black airforce. Heck, she even faced off against Mary who was jacked up on multiple blessings from an entire pantheon of deities, and came out of that fight the clear victor.
Thing is Mary goes berserk whenever she prats for Blessings, She downright more powerful but isn't in her right mind so she's easy to beat by Tanya who even if high on her own powers is still military intelligent enough to know how to beat her.
@@stick3013well yeah that and she is just wayyy too emotional. Actual soldiers end up becoming sociopaths by the time they finish their term. Mary sue (god this name is ironic) doesn't give a shit about anything but revenge which is why she lost.
I love how her own future troops were so scared by how "inhuman" she was that they completed the training only because they thought she'd kill them if they tried to quit, lol. Doing CPR on the guy who drowned from the snow must have been like seeing someone who holds the fate of life and death in their hands judging you.
What's actually funny she actually intended to make them quit judging by her expression once they finished training, and I would say she fucked up her plan.
@@abyssfigure8519 Yeah, her gritting her teeth and her eye-twitching before she upgraded her troops from "scum" to "elite troops" in that speech was hilarious.
but also because of how hard she went on them, they became the elite of the elite, and all of them hold her to the highest respect, even more than her superiors. they have stated on numerous occasions that they would escort her to valhalla and even followed her orders when she was about to launch an attack which was directly against the orders of general staff, which would have gotten her court marshalled.
The thing that was kinda skipped over in this was Tanya's motivation. Her original goal after being thrown into this life was to live a peaceful life away from danger. It was being X who would manipulate everyone around tanya forcing her into her life and death situations just to prove a point to tanya. The real antagonistic of the show is being X not tanya.
@@ipanesm good point it might be self defense but the soldiers she sent to die just to prove a point wouldn't agree with you lol, not to mention there was no point in not letting civilians evacuate when they blew up their base, or taking enjoyment in "being the 'hero' of the battlefield", although i do agree that her motivations were to live comfortably
@@styx597 also the magic system gives you a high. Like meth. It's the methhead god. It corrupts so it's no wonder he's the way he is with how much magic he's got.
@@styx597 but there was a point, and thats what the entire conflict was about, and why they did it even when they didnt want to. and im pretty sure i could be rememberin wrong but she never "took enjoyment" at being a "hero" in any moment, i do remember her enjoying when a plan went well and no casualities were had
@@oiledferret9669 In book 12 God shows up as Frederick Nietzsche and sends being X to hell with no powers. Tanya gets 2 wishes and a few perks. She stops getting triggered when someone goes religious or say god. She is stuck with all her memories for every life she lives for the rest of time but it doesn’t drive her mad or cause any pain. You won’t believe the name of Being X.
Fun facts: at no time in the series did the empire declare an offensive war. Everyone else attacked the empire. So it was completely self defense. Plus Tanya makes very certain all her actions are technically not war crimes by rules lawyering harder than a 40 year old D&D master.
What triggers them to hell and back is the book Tanya wrote on the rules of war. Starting from book 2 of the Light Novels Tanya realize that even if the Empire won, history could judge them as evil. So Tanya starts writing a book that gets used in the United Nations to defend the Empire. It shows every rule during the war and their loopholes. The rules made post war and their loopholes. Then Tanya writes the rules of war for the next 100 years. Also how to write rules to prevent loopholes. Later in the book it states every war crime the United Nations think the Empire committed and proves they did not commit any of them. With records, extreme details, and many facts it shows the Empire never committed any crime. Then the book shows every war crime committed against the Empire from each country in details, with records, and facts. The Empire never pays a debt, doesn’t lose land but ironically gains land and money. The Republic of France and Great Britain basically owe The a Empire and the rest of the world billions. The reason France Technically started WW1 is the same reason Britain invade Afghanistan in the series.
Technically Tanya committed zero war crimes due to a loop hole in the treaty. You're not allowed to use artillery in a city, but you can declare that it's a battle ground and that all civilians should leave! so she took one from Canada's play book that says "its not a war crime if its the first time its been committed"
Fun fact: At least in the Manga (not sure about the novel), there isn't only "the One God" watching her. There're multiple gods and many of them blessed Mary Sue. That's why she has multiple blessings more powerful than Tanya's obligatory "Isekai Cheat". In short, she isn't only facing God. She's going against multiple gods!
Major Spoiler alert for non Light Novels readers: Being X is actually an extremely narcissistic arch angel that created religion to become as powerful as god. Tanya does beat Being X with the help of the actual god in book 12 because something Being X tried to do. I can explain more if you want.
@@thesebinator9492 Ath the end of book 11 the series takes a major left turn. The Empire just beat another 3 countries and America enters the war. Every Mage Tanya and the Empire has fought has basically were a one trick pony. The Mages of select countries have one little advantage but still Eventually lose. America is on par with technology with the Empire but have endless resources while the Empire is running out. Tanya learns while fighting the Americans that Deus Ex Machina mode doesn’t need to be activated by prayer but just to focus. She also realizes her powers don’t come from Being X and every one she kills, their remaining life span goes to her. Including the life span from what other Mages have killed. Tanya and all her Mages have at least 100,000’s of years of energy they can use. Tanya then teaches everyone of her Mages how to use Deus Ex Machina mode without it really hurting them. Tanya’s Army starts to turn the tide and is beating the American forces. Then angels start appearing and killing anything on the battlefield Empire and Americans. After about a few Angels are shot and killed by both the Americans and Tanya’s army, Being X shows up in the form of a stereotypical look of god. In book 12 everything happens. Being X shoots Visha and Tanya believes she is dead. Visha will actually survive the battle but like 99% of the survivors will not know what exactly happened. Tanya gets extremely triggered and starts to focus on her Ultimate shot. For about 3 minutes Tanya pours all her hatred and negative emotions into the bullet while cursing nonstop at Being X and the angels. Then Being X goes in for the attack and Tanya shoots this round. It tears Being X in half, vaporizes 5 arch angels, splits the clouds, and destroys a quarter of the moon. Then Being X loses it, starts destroying everything and reality. Tanya is slowly being ripped apart both literally and metaphysically. Her memories are being ripped apart.
@@thesebinator9492 Around the time Tanya is completely gone time stops and everything resets. Next thing happens Tanya is her complete self again with all her memories, no pain, and curious to what just happened. In the book it is described as an endless library with no signs of a sky but just more floors of books. Then Tanya see 3 people walking around the library, her past life self, a strong 12ft tall man, and a purple alien. Then a man starts quoting things Tanya actually believes are true. Tanya realizes this man is or at least looks like Frederick Nietzsche. They start to have a conversation about what is going on and then an angel with its wings ripped off starts to yell. The angel is Being X, Frederick Nietzsche is God and Tanya has just saw all her current possible lives. For about 50 pages God shits on religions with a major focus on it’s hatred of Christianity. Being X you find out is actually called Gabriel but it prefers to be called God or Jesus Christ. You find out that God made infinite parallel universes with an arch angel to look over it. They are given 1 and only rule, “don’t destroy your universes or any other.” Being X almost broke the one rule to kill Tanya. It’s punishment is a sentence to the real Hell as a human with no powers. Tanya then gets 3 awards, her freedom/ ability to reincarnate after death, the ability to never lose any of her past memories without it hurting her, and about a few thousands questions answered. In an instant she is back on the battlefield with Empire losing but no one is dying. There is then 3 time jumps in the story. The real history of the War explained by a war reporter talking about Tanya in 1962. Tanya’s life in America in the 1940’s. And Tanya’s life in 2099 with a new world cult that believes Tanya is the messiah and is destined to bring all humanity together on Earth and the Milky Way galaxy. The picture of Tanya grown up is amazing.
CJ. I would just like to take the time to thank you. I'll be honest, today was pretty terrible for me today. Coming back from work was like coming back from a warzone. But videos like yours help elate me and make me happy to take time out of my day to sit back and listen to your hilarious reactions. So again, thank you.
Her ruthlessness and lack of mercy towards other people is unmatched, if she could pull an Eren Jaeger and do The Rumbling, she’d do it for fun and with a smile on her face.
Wildly untrue, in fact she even states herself she hates war, considers it bad for the nation, and over all a waste of resources. Tanya's choices and feelings are almost always formed out of pure pragmatism, if it doesn't work, it's stupid, but if it's the rules, she follows them. In DND, she would absolutely be a Lawful aligned character. She wouldn't want the rumbling, by virtue of it completely throwing of any form of future trade between nations, by virtue of everyone else being dead.
the funniest part about this is that what she did in the enemy city wasn't really a war crime because she _warned_ them before carpet bombing them. absolute madlass behavior.
"People call it a war crime. I call it tuesday morning." Tanya's drip is pitch black, dyed with the blood of her enemies (and the occasional ally), not gonna lie.
I thought you would have addressed the biggest evidence that Tanya is evil. She tried to disobey orders to commit genocide on an entire people for the same reasoning in Exhibit B - let the enemy escape and they'll come back. She terrified her own commanding officer. But the most messed up part of that was that she was right - because they stopped her, the enemy came back.
@@johnnyd.1004 That's why she is such a well-written villain. She's not some lunatic with inane thought processes that make you laugh at how nuts the villain is. No. You can follow the logic. And that is what makes her, and other well written villains terrifying. You can see the reasoning. You understand it. You can see how a rational person might be driven to make those decisions. It's because she reasons like a regular human that she is such a terrifying villain, because we can, on some level, relate to her decisions, and that rightfully frightens us.
She didnt disobeyed orders she basically found a loophole to skirt around international treaties and their version of geneva convention. Same thing happened to our history btw she just adopts our own history to further her agenda.
During 10:36 tanya purposefully used her most innocent choosing voice to make it seem like a child was playing around so that people would not believe they would actually get blown to smithereens, as if she wasn’t a menace enough 😭
I was waiting to see if anyone would bring that up. She told the truth, just in a way that made it seem like a lie. Can't be held liable if they were technically warned. lol
Actually, she was just giving the order with her normal voice in the LN. She did so because she assumed Visha was thinking that it would be more legal and proper to have the CO say it instead of her adjudant.
Actually, Tanya has a Tic (hope I spelled that right) . This causes her voice to change in to the "child like" voice. It's like stuttering, she can't control it.
The reason she does all this actually is because she thinks her superiors will reward her with the prize of being put in reserves, but thanks to the misunderstandings she caused thanks to her follow every rule attitude and harsh punishments for breaking, plus the rules with her battle crazy yet patriotic way of fighting and acting they think she wants to fight even more and so she’s put into more war situations.
IRL most of the modern international war laws were written close to the end of or at the end of the WWI that bombing the city scene was so well written and cruel it gave me shivers. Tanya knew that it will be considered as a war crime after everything were to be ended so she wrote a proposition and made upper echelons passed it as a law so as long as you dropped pamphlets 24 hours perior and make an evacuation announcement before the attack it will be legal. So as she were making the air strike to the mages as well as the civilians legally it wasn't her responsibility at all.
Actally this is wrong treaties before ww1 does say bombing a city isn't a war crime if the attack is center on military facilities, and the enemy must be notified beforehand. So Tanya didn't comit a war crime. She is quite specific on avoiding those, and makes sure she's a law biding citizen. Article 26: The officer in command of an attacking force must, before commencing a bombardment, except in cases of assault, do all in his power to warn the authorities. Article 27: In sieges and bombardments all necessary steps must be taken to spare, as far as possible, buildings dedicated to religion, art, science, or charitable purposes, historic monuments, hospitals, and places where the sick and wounded are collected, provided they are not being used at the time for military purposes. It is the duty of the besieged to indicate the presence of such buildings or places by distinctive and visible signs, which shall be notified to the enemy beforehand
@@elysainempire4628 yeah but WW1 made people realise how inefficient those laws were and they had another conference in 1923 apeariantly and the international wartime law had changed so many times over the years since for example bombing a hospital is a warcrime but bombing a power station and killing hundreds of people being treated in said hospital indirectly from crippling the hospital is fine. Or bombing an industrial area. Tanya having that knowledge wrote an assay and a proposition and gave it to Zetour he than planned the operation accordingly. It was a warcrime but Tanya thought them to get around and find the backdoor.
In my genuine opinion I think she's actually a great drill sergeant and is training her people to be ready for absolutely anything. All respect to Tanya
Wish he would’ve talked about the Operation Dessert episode were Tanya takes her battalions on a crusade wiping out enemy military camps all for the sake of finding good ingredients to make dessert to eat.
It was for pasta, no? And yup, she trashed the enemy supply camps, just because pasta by itself, especially in the desert with water in short supply, is not the best meal ;)
She's the foulest out anyone in anime. She literally just strolled up and blew up the enemy headquarters like 4 or 5 different times. She was the devil of the Rhine BEFORE she even got any other soldiers. She has proof that God is real and still disrespects him. No other anime character has been this psychopathic and gotten away with it. There's no redemption arc or nothing she's just build different.
If you read Light Novels you will find out it is a lot more complicated. Being X is not a real issue until the end of the series and I can spoil everything. Like for example Being X is not the actual god.
Tanya is one of my favorite characters out of everyone. 1. She follows the rules and strictly implement them to others and herself. She tries to follow the rules as much as possible to set an example to her colleagues. 2. She applies her sympathy in a lawful manner. As long as helping others is not going to break any rule, she will do it. She is not someone to be affected by her sympathy to break a rule. 3. She is really smart. She doesn't do everything without thinking. She always analyze things before taking actions. It is rare for her arrogantly do something. 4. She is petty. If you did something wrong to her, she will get you back. It is also in a way that you can't blame her because it was all within the rules. Just like how she sent those two arrogant bastards to the rear to die off without much blame on her. 5. She tries to take different approach to people depending on their personality. 6. She doesn't really take unecessary credit and boast about it. She doesnt use her position to exploit anyone.
tbf at the beginning she was tryna get out of going to the frontlines and wanted to just chill so I guess that's one of the reasons why she doesn't boast or take unnecessary credit.
She also absolutely HATES war, she says it's a waste of human life and resources. She is literally trying to end it, but the incompetence and arrogance of those around her, perpetuates the war.
I honestly hate her just for what she did to the father and daughter. If she killed the daughter, I would've hated it. But I hope she get Tanya back, in some way since Tanya is the Protag and definitely won't die.
The guy wasn't just chronically late to work, and did sub-par performance, he intentionally antagonized all his fellow workers, and did illegal drugs, and was a frequent no-call/no-show. While it's not covered in the anime or manga, the fired guy also refused numerous rehab programs offered by the protagoinst, leaving the guy who would be reincarnated into Tanya no choice but to fire him. Then rather than accept this wake-up call, the lazy drug snorting yahoo shoves the one who fired him infront of a train, in front of many witnesses. Then "Being X" shows up and entraps our MC into agreeing to an "experiment" to see if he would have his faith awakened by being thrust into the horrors of war. When that fails to go as planned "Being X' continues to torment and taunt Tanya, even forcing her to use a magical artifact that strips away her sanity and free will every time she uses it to protect herself from the armed invaders into her home country. I don't know about you, but you don't have to be "Satan Incarnate" to be royally ticked at being treated that badly.
Agreed. I sympathized with Tanya for the most part. Did she do some sketchy shit? Yeah, but who wouldn't when they know for a fact that a literal god is out to get them?
@@nothanks3236 I mean a literal god you denied existed after it talked to you with the amazing logic of "If you really were god you wouldn't have let this bad thing happen to me." The god didn't start out to get them. Tanya made that situation and realized it as he tried to correct it right before god sent him to the new world.
@@nothanks3236 Yes it is tanya's fault for raging against a literal god. See the story of arachne. If i lived in a world with zeus and something bad happened to me and i then took it out on zeus, are you gonna feel bad for me when i get lightning bolted?
It's a miracle she didn't take Madara's spot right on recruitment. Legit, Tanya is a genuine menace. Man, woman, elder, child, soldier, civilian, it don't matter, cause her bullets are genuinely rated E for everyone. Plus all the psychological conditioning of her own men and literally sending them to die for not following her orders... even her own allies aren't safe
Madara is not as...Fleshed out as Tonya so she should have been had a higher spot then him. Madara lost his brother to war. Her-hum. Imagine GOD having it out for you.
True, the novel explains in a passing from an allied perspective in the trenches that the francois Republic of the Rhine Theater wanted her so dead that they send everything at her, and when they did shells, bullets, and Magix would rain down from the sky turning everything and everyone in to Unfortunate casualties
And she's smart enough to commit warcrimes without them even being counted as warcrimes... A smart person that has no moral compass is way more scary than a person that's just evil.
On a side note, the main reason she send those dudes to die in that bunker is twofold. 1. They were endangering her and her team by not following orders and instead being gloryseekers attacking targets they were not assigned to attack. It meant her team had to go into danger and might not be able to fulfill the mission they actually were assigned. 2. Someone had to man that bunker. May as well be these two suicidal people.
@@Maddinhpws exactly. It's not just "err you don't obey me, DIE!" Its more "you endager everyone and the mission by not following orders to do what YOU thought was right, instead of your CO. You want glory, you be the one to man the spots that need people people with a high death rate"
Technically she isn't. Tanya's cold, pragmatic as fuck, and more than a tad psychotic, but she generally does what she does as a response to the situation she was presented with as a soldier in the army. If anyone's a villain then it's the person responsible for reincarnating her in the first place aka Being X, as they're the one who made a point to essentially mess with Tanya's life all for the sake of getting her to worship them.
The funny thing is that every situation that has her going off the deep end, she's been pushed into it just like the train from the previous life. The cold hard logic that dictates survival doesn't leave too many options. There's no B.S.'ing out of it or around it. Even if she could be judged as evil, one could still find ways to empathize with the anti-hero in that situation. (You may not like her even, but you understand where its all coming from.) In that regard, it's kind of an intriguing story that gives a good explanation for such a dark character.
This story is a pretty interesting take on the Isekai genre, with its protagonist compassionless, dishonorable, sadistic and morally bankrupt, exploiting every technicality in the legal and military system to allow herself to be as openly malevolent and destructive as she wants. Her only “redeemable” quality is her will and strategic mind being so strong that she could push herself to survive in this wartorn world.
Tanya's just incapable of feeling empathy. She is not sadistic. At no point does she expressly seek to torment others. She was perfectly content making an honest living in a society which prioritizes rules as much as she does. It could also be argued that while she may not be moral she is in fact a paragon of ethical behavior, as her entire sense of self seems to be based on following her society's codes of conduct.
I love this show, so damn good, especially how Tanya just doesn't want to be in danger and just accidentally keeps making herself too good that they keep putting her into more and more important and dangerous positions. So damn good.
Mary Sioux (in the LN, it actually IS 'Sue') is a whole mess. None of their fight actually happens in the LN. She is wildly emotional, doesn't understand how to conduct a war, and (spoiler alert) the country that hired her as a reserve unit CHOSE to put her down 'cause she was THAT unstable to their campaign. And Tanya is...well, Tanya, and everything she suffers is more or less self-inflicted.
American scientist basically try to recreate a Type 95 gem with Sue. It works and fails because the gem makes you into a religious zealot for Being X. Pure rage and aggression while using the power. Only Tanya can think rationally when using it however Sue is already a Zealot to begin with. Sue goes crazy with power and America sends their Mage special forces to take her out before Sue explodes.
@@akatsukigajou1639 Can't be-- she's not the protagonist. Even if she was made into a supporting character, a writer falling into that trap would have warped the story around her anyways-- had she been an "actual" Mary Sue.
I love her (as a character). I wish there were more characters who were ruthless like her. Only closest comparison is Grevillea from Her Majesty's Swarm, who is one of my most favorite characters ever
She really would've been one of the chillest in her world if it wasn't for *being constantly and conveniently brought closer and closer to the war to the point of going from the front lines to special ops that drive the direction of war*
She/he constantly says they'd much rather be doing paperwork for life, the definition of "fuck around and find out" and "to the letter of the law, not the spirit of it."
There were technically no war crimes here. Officers are allowed to kill soldiers who disobey orders in the field in a summary execution. She followed the protocols to the letter during the battle of Arene, allowing every chance for the resistance to surrender. And the whole Souix family thing was brought on by themselves. The Republic was an invading force. She was not only within her rights there, she was legally obligated to light them up. As for Mary "Can't follow an order to save her life" Can't hit the broad side of a barn" Souix, she is literally going out of her way to find trouble. She had it coming even more than her dear old dad. Tanya is less of a devil and more of an ace attorney. Not that there's much distinction between the two to be had there.
We decided at Nuremberg that anything the allies did was legal and anything beyond that that the axis did was a war crime. This is very much how the law works. It was legal to nuke Japan twice, but it was still heinous.
Intentional targeting of non-combatants is a warcrime in and of itself... so by the very definition of warcrimes she does commit warcrimes. Wether that was a bad thing or not is a second thing to ask
@@wouterkessel4852 She technically does not commit war crimes because she follows protocol to classify everyone in the city as an enemy combatant. She used a loophole intended to prevent people from hiding troops in civilian populations to kill the civilian population. She violated the spirit of the law, but not actually the law. Her method is *technically not a war crime (TM)*
In Isekai Quartet, Aqua got lucky that they were able to convince her that Aqua wasn't the Being X (aka God). The moment Aqua mentioned that she was a god, Tanya was about to get ready to kill her.
"I've seen enough. Sit down." Tanya has so much Black Air Force Energy, that even CJ is disgusted with her. A complete savage. I wonder if Ainz will eventually make the table. Actually, the whole Great Tomb of Nazarick needs its own Round Table because it is full of menaces.
Think about it for a second. Tanya was just a menace to humanity. Such an embodiment of evil that GOD had to send an upgraded, magic juiced up, LITERAL MARY SUE to kill her. And in the end, God had to pull out the plot armor trap card from its ass to save said Mary Sue.
Tanya was menace to the world at that point. Tanya did not care whatsoever, straight up had a whole damn buffed Mary Sue on her ass and rocked her shit. Mary Sue was lucky that plot armor kicked in or she'd be the same as her pops, dead as hell.
@@wrinklybrain832 The Plot Armor only exists in the Anime. In the light Novel not long after that. Mary Sue is killed by the people she is working for as she is a HOT HOT Dumpster fire of a mess after that. Tanya Broke her something fierce.
You know how terrifying Tanya is? Ainz Oal Gown, the Skele-dad himself, in Isekai Quartet considered Tanya's power above 8th level magic when she cornered Aqua. Meaning Tanya would likely be a genuine challenge to his own tougher subordinates if not outright stronger than them. Even his Floor Guardians treat her with respect, and they see humans as garbage.
@@idonargesy8197 I always wonder how different systems of magic would stack up against one another. If it came to an all out brawl, my money would be on Mahouka’s systematized magic. Just Tatsuya’s Gram Demolition and Gram Dispersion would already be an absolute nightmare for other magic users, because it can destroy _any_ magical structure. Pair that with Mist Dispersion/Trident, Astral Dispersion, Material Burst, Miyuki’s Cocyutus and only the “divine” magic users might stand a chance at that point
Since I've seen people question it before, regarding Tanya's pronouns, the novels actually address this. Basically, in her mind Tanya still considers herself a man, and given the option would rather turn back into one, but has been a girl for so long now that being treated and reffered to as one doesn't bother her. So yes, the correct way to refer to Tanya is she. The novels also go into her views on potential romance and sex, since if she's stuck here for the rest of her life she'll be an adult eventually. In her mind, she considers herself to be a straight man, but in her current body that would make her lesbian, which she doesn't find appealing and wouldn't be fair to potential partners. So basically she's decided to just be celibate.
Honestly? That’s stupid….A high as balls character who isn’t asexual just decides to not have sex to be “fair”??? This Jeff Bezos mofo fired people with families, was that “fair”??? Lmfao. XD Ah well, gonna read the light novel anyway.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus Whether he is in the right or not, he will assume it was Tanya's fault. Remember, we're talking about a self-proclaimed perfect being who miscalculated the breeding rate of humans and STILL blamed them, while also whining and complaining about how tiring his job was
The building that those two were placed in for disobeying orders is commonly known as a pillbox and was known to be the highest location for casualty ratings during the world wars as it was the opposing sides best bet to destroy in case there were troops stationed inside, and in doing so the only troops sent to these pillboxes were usually those that got into deep shit with their CO as punishment in stead of sending them home cuz army needed the numbers, but the main purpose of these buildings was to make sure none of the enemy troops could sneak past without the main force knowing
People seem to not understand the implications of the fact that Tanya is a sociopath. She completely lacks a moral compass and because of that she latches onto rules and power structures following them to the letter. She can consider how her actions fit within the rules of society, war, and the military hierarchy, but has no way to factor morality into a decision, making every decision of hers cold and logical. I would argue that her actions should not be judged as moral or immoral because it literally is not something that Tanya can consider. Regularly through the novels Tanya records and comments on the illogical decisions made by others, decisions that she admits that she does not understand how they made them, and those decisions are the result of the moral framework that she lacks. You don't blame the bear for mauling the hiker because the bear has no concept of morality as humans understand, you blame the hiker for being unprepared and careless. Tanya fits in the same category. She has no way to make a distinction between moral and immoral acts, she can only discern actions allowable within the rules and orders she has been given. Hence why, despite being staunchly anti-war and a pacifist when possible, she gravitated to the military, the only power structure with clear rules that was available to her. The books make it seem that Tanya lacks the ability to impose rules upon herself entirely, hence her lack of morals and need to find a place within an existing power structure, because she lacks morals she craves rules to tell her what to do. This is well covered in the books, and I can highly recommend them because they delve deep into the ethical and philosophical repercussions of the existence of sociopaths.
That’s a really interesting way of looking at it! I always thought that Tanya just enjoyed killing people and war in general, simply hiding her bloodlust behind the rules and objectives of the army.
@@davidg8117 Tanya is definitely ruthless. But she never goes out of her way to fight if it isn't needed. For example, early on during the battle of the Rhine, when she nukes the Republican Mages, she starts by giving them all a chance to surrender. This isn't a merciful act but a calculated one to avoid spending more effort than would be needed. This is immediately followed by Tanya eliminating all of the Mages in a single strike as it is much faster than engaging in a prolonged dogfight. Nowhere in this interaction is Tanya being merciful; she is just being lazy. As another example, she regularly protects her subordinates. In the books, she regularly regards them as emergency meat shields and constantly reminds herself that they are ultimately disposable. And yet, she still goes out of her way to protect them on several occasions. The reason is twofold. First, Tanya has convinced herself that losing troops could be bad for her career if she loses troops, even though command is regularly surprised that her wing doesn't take casualties often. Second, it would be too much effort to have to retrain replacements, so Tanya avoids having to deal with that by not losing troops. She actively makes more work for herself in order to avoid work.
Well said, and thank you for this. I love both the anime and novel versions of Tanya, but the anime version's bloodthirst is definitely played up for the fun factor (which I understand). The mental maze novel Tanya lives in is more to digest, but really interesting. I liked that in the movie, Tanya's characterization was closer to her novel self, a bit more thoughtful, level-headed, and tuned in with her subordinates. Hoping they run more along those lines for season 2.
I mostly agree what I will say is that even sociopaths can understand morality it just needs to be explained in a way that doesn’t use emotions to explain it. This is why medieval societies There were plenty of sociopaths who function normally these things are explained because of religious reasons sociopaths only really can’t Function in the modern day, because in the modern day, we explain morality through feelings, and not through other concepts If Tanya was raised, religious, was taught that her most important duty was to love God and then they would explain that God wants you to treat people in certain ways, because, his law says so she would probably be a decent person who would follow or at least try to the laws of the Bible, and that they should be a good part of society and older societies understood they couldn’t expect people to behave off feelings as much because societies were a lot harsher. They expected people to be a lot colder than we expect people to be today, thus their moral systems that they taught generally rule us based off feelings in this functioned, even with psychopaths, because they made sense to them. The main reason psychopaths don’t function properly and moderate society that well is because you wouldn’t value something that you couldn’t understand, and in our modern society things like because God tells you to make equally is a little sense people aren’t taught to be devout. But then again, I’m not as sociopath. This is just based off, listening to people with mental illnesses that are basically sociopaths and hearing their thoughts on things and then with my historical knowledge trying to figure out why an older societies I don’t really hear people talking about this being a problem as much. (Also, all errors are because this is voice type. I probably slurred my words, or the phone couldn’t understand my accent.)
Considering the first example of "morals" the MC does not understand is the guy committing a murder out of spite for getting fired. Lacking "moral compass" doesn't sound that evil from this perspective. Sounds like people trying to hide their irrational decisions behind some "greater wisdom" that ultimately leads them to commit heinous acts that are supposed to be justified because they weren't entirely calculated.
4:40 from what i remember reading the novel she is manifesting combat simulants in her body to prep for the fight, its why she kind of looked like she went crazy but she actually was just pumped up on drugs for a tactical advantage.
@@elysainempire4628 here straight from the light novel "Without a thought about what’s going to come after, I start doping up with one interference formula after the next. Improved reaction time, increased instantaneous strength. Before my brain registers the shooting pain of forcing open the magic circuits, I alleviate it with intracerebral narcotics. Ahhh, I’m getting pumped. My body’s running hot with excitement."
The episode where they are ordered to just kill this entire town is super painful to watch and genius at the same time. Because none of them is happy or proud of it and it just showes these civilians getting murdered on the one hand and then Tanya's soldiers getting traumatised on the other. This entire anime is a fantastic war criticism hidden underneath a isekai with cool looking action.
Watched it and loved the series. And while Tanya definitely does sketchy shit, the true antagonist/"bad guy" is Being X who for some reason seems to have it out for this one particular human. Can't exactly blame her for going a little bonkers when a literal "god" is out to get her.
The funniest irony I have with the entire series is that Being X wants to be worshipped as a god, yet fails to understand one of the most direct and easiest to understand people in the series.
@@volrag He fails to understand nothing, He communicates via direct telepathy and it's how they saw right through all the Salaryman's empty platitudes. Also, Tanya (and the viewers as well) seems to have forgotten that the whole "Suffering leads to Faith" was entirely the Salaryman's idea (plucked from their head via telepathy to the Salaryman's chagrin because they thought lying to God would actually work) so her continued denial of God's existence is actually countering her own argument which her entire spite ridden existence is fueled by.
The music video was for the benefit of her lieutenant (blue-eyed girl). She was originally from the country they were in, but was chased out for being able to use magic.
I can't believe those idiots actually chased away their mages. I get being envious of their abilities but like, they're the best offense against outsiders, literally the backbone of their society, and they just shot themselves in the foot by kicking them out.

@@Otgel To be fair. In the Anime it's partially of screen, but Tanya read all the, "Rules of war", once she was of rank to do so. She also wrote a couple Thesis papers on it. It's one of the reasons she gets promoted so fast. She is MAKING new "Rules of War!".
To those that want to know, God puts her in tough situations that forces her to use the medallion but in order to activate the medallion, she needs to make a prayer because God is a sick being and dislikes that she is a atheist. Also, each use of the medallion causes mental instability, so her personality becomes more warped.
1) being X is not god just something that feeds in faith. The manga showed it. 2) Tanya is coerced to pray. Being X strapped a bomb to her chest, so the choices were either pray or boom. 3) Tanya loses the game if Tanya becomes a believer so will overcome the challenges etc... then survive without being X.
@@burningwolf5805 being X may not be God with a capital 'G',,but he's certainly a god or something close to it. Tanya's the type of person to argue with Genghis Khan and be surprised he razes her village.
@@2ndlaborofHercules what people worship as god's does not actually make them God. People worship trees, or statues or even demons and then call them god's but they are not actually God. Best to see being X similar to a vampire that is dependent upon human blood for sustenance and survival except being X feeds on faith. Simar to vampires or demons being X is not without powers as it was the one that paused time in the Japanese salary-man world but spoke about how there is not much faith despite humans being 7 billion. But viewers are not paying attention to the consequences of being X feeding on their faith. Adelheid Von Schugel aka the eccentric scientist of the Empire. Who was a scientist brilliant mind that pushed himself and human limits to break human boundaries and limitations. But when he became a "believer" more specifically being X began to feed on his faith, he changed overnight became more of a religious fanatic and dependent no longer on his own mind skills and abilities but now on being X. You have the Sioux family that was being X stick to punish Tanya with. They lost themselves to a revenge quest convinced that Tanya was a demon just because they lost to their enemy. Like making a pact with demons for powers but you lose yourself you lose your souls, the Sioux family obtained powers from being X to "smite Tanya Von Degurechaff what they branded a devil. Anson Sioux was more than an old soldier. Respected by his allies and subordinates and loved by his family that he loved in return. But now he became an empty shell, no more than a spirit of vengeance haunted by the men he failed and country he could not protect. Mary Sioux is empathetic, concerned for people and forces around her, however abandons the people and becomes insubordinate when the opportunity to kill Tanya arises. Point is that as long as being X feeds on faith being X cares not for the damage it causes to the person being fed on or the people country and environment around it.
@@2ndlaborofHercules now because Tanya is forced to pray but is a staunch atheist. It is a one sided deal in favour of Tanya. Since she gets strong mana and magic but there is no "faith" for being X to feed upon.
9:38 One of my favorite parts of this show is that Tanya's graduation speech for the battalion is an almost word for word copy of the graduation speech from "Full Metal Jacket", one of the most hardcore war movies of the 20th century.

Exhibit D (It happens in the middle of exhibit C): while stationed in the desert, the food given to Tanya's battalion was trash, just pasta that they can't even cook because you know, it's the DESERT so there is no water around to "waste". What was Tanya's solution? Attack enemy bases just for the ingredients and water to cook.
Enemy soldier: "WHY? This base holds no strategic value whatsoever, why are we getting shelled?"
Tanya: "Run your pockets n****, I know you got basil!"

The Sioux family was very literally empowered by Him to make her life hell, and she still packs them up. She's not just a demon, she's the straight-up Devil
I can see Satan looking at her and taking notes
Tanya doesn't believe it to be God, she doesn't believe he exists, because God is believed to be a benevolent entity.
The Devil, on the other hand... Tanya is certain that Being X is the Devil, because everything he does seems illogical and counter to everything Tanya is building. Blind faith has no place in Tanya's mind, but that's what the Devil wants from her. Thus, the conflict.

Technically Tanya committed zero war crimes due to a loop hole in the treaty.

Why do I see her on playdates with Kid Buu?
The fact that she deliberately called God's work "sloppy" and his existence irrelevant to mankind from the start of the series, and still continually piss and shit on a pantheon of deities' plans, is enough to grant her a seat at the round table of black airforce.

Woah woah woah, Tanya doesn't commit warcrimes.
She wrote a whole book on how to do that shit without it being war crimes
My favorite part from the Light Novels, especially when it is the main focus in book 13 at the United Nations.
no really tho she wrote a whole fuckin' PACKET and gave it to the commanding generals!
The thing that was kinda skipped over in this was Tanya's motivation. Her original goal after being thrown into this life was to live a peaceful life away from danger. It was being X who would manipulate everyone around tanya forcing her into her life and death situations just to prove a point to tanya. The real antagonistic of the show is being X not tanya.

You won’t believe the name of Being X.
@@joshportal2808 sounds edgy asf ngl.
Fun facts: at no time in the series did the empire declare an offensive war. Everyone else attacked the empire. So it was completely self defense.
Plus Tanya makes very certain all her actions are technically not war crimes by rules lawyering harder than a 40 year old D&D master.
That last analogy is fucking accurately amazing, dood.
Honestly I feel a little hurt by that last bit, even though I'm not 40.... I relate to that last bit a little to much....
Lawful evil at its finest
What triggers them to hell and back is the book Tanya wrote on the rules of war. Starting from book 2 of the Light Novels Tanya realize that even if the Empire won, history could judge them as evil. So Tanya starts writing a book that gets used in the United Nations to defend the Empire. It shows every rule during the war and their loopholes. The rules made post war and their loopholes. Then Tanya writes the rules of war for the next 100 years. Also how to write rules to prevent loopholes.
Later in the book it states every war crime the United Nations think the Empire committed and proves they did not commit any of them. With records, extreme details, and many facts it shows the Empire never committed any crime.
Then the book shows every war crime committed against the Empire from each country in details, with records, and facts.
The Empire never pays a debt, doesn’t lose land but ironically gains land and money. The Republic of France and Great Britain basically owe The a Empire and the rest of the world billions.
The reason France Technically started WW1 is the same reason Britain invade Afghanistan in the series.
@@joshportal2808 thanks for the lore lesson, I was really curious about how they were going to be explaining this
Technically Tanya committed zero war crimes due to a loop hole in the treaty. You're not allowed to use artillery in a city, but you can declare that it's a battle ground and that all civilians should leave!
so she took one from Canada's play book that says "its not a war crime if its the first time its been committed"
While Germany and Japan are the reason for POW rules, we Canadians are the reason for in combat rules
Fun fact: At least in the Manga (not sure about the novel), there isn't only "the One God" watching her. There're multiple gods and many of them blessed Mary Sue. That's why she has multiple blessings more powerful than Tanya's obligatory "Isekai Cheat".
In short, she isn't only facing God. She's going against multiple gods!
Major Spoiler alert for non Light Novels readers:
Being X is actually an extremely narcissistic arch angel that created religion to become as powerful as god.
Tanya does beat Being X with the help of the actual god in book 12 because something Being X tried to do. I can explain more if you want.
@@joshportal2808 ok
@@joshportal2808 explain more pls
@@thesebinator9492 Ath the end of book 11 the series takes a major left turn. The Empire just beat another 3 countries and America enters the war. Every Mage Tanya and the Empire has fought has basically were a one trick pony. The Mages of select countries have one little advantage but still Eventually lose. America is on par with technology with the Empire but have endless resources while the Empire is running out.
Tanya learns while fighting the Americans that Deus Ex Machina mode doesn’t need to be activated by prayer but just to focus. She also realizes her powers don’t come from Being X and every one she kills, their remaining life span goes to her. Including the life span from what other Mages have killed. Tanya and all her Mages have at least 100,000’s of years of energy they can use. Tanya then teaches everyone of her Mages how to use Deus Ex Machina mode without it really hurting them. Tanya’s Army starts to turn the tide and is beating the American forces.
Then angels start appearing and killing anything on the battlefield Empire and Americans. After about a few Angels are shot and killed by both the Americans and Tanya’s army, Being X shows up in the form of a stereotypical look of god.
In book 12 everything happens.
Being X shoots Visha and Tanya believes she is dead. Visha will actually survive the battle but like 99% of the survivors will not know what exactly happened.
Tanya gets extremely triggered and starts to focus on her Ultimate shot. For about 3 minutes Tanya pours all her hatred and negative emotions into the bullet while cursing nonstop at Being X and the angels.
Then Being X goes in for the attack and Tanya shoots this round. It tears Being X in half, vaporizes 5 arch angels, splits the clouds, and destroys a quarter of the moon.
Then Being X loses it, starts destroying everything and reality. Tanya is slowly being ripped apart both literally and metaphysically. Her memories are being ripped apart.
@@thesebinator9492 Around the time Tanya is completely gone time stops and everything resets. Next thing happens Tanya is her complete self again with all her memories, no pain, and curious to what just happened. In the book it is described as an endless library with no signs of a sky but just more floors of books. Then Tanya see 3 people walking around the library, her past life self, a strong 12ft tall man, and a purple alien.
Then a man starts quoting things Tanya actually believes are true. Tanya realizes this man is or at least looks like Frederick Nietzsche. They start to have a conversation about what is going on and then an angel with its wings ripped off starts to yell. The angel is Being X, Frederick Nietzsche is God and Tanya has just saw all her current possible lives.
For about 50 pages God shits on religions with a major focus on it’s hatred of Christianity. Being X you find out is actually called Gabriel but it prefers to be called God or Jesus Christ. You find out that God made infinite parallel universes with an arch angel to look over it. They are given 1 and only rule, “don’t destroy your universes or any other.”
Being X almost broke the one rule to kill Tanya. It’s punishment is a sentence to the real Hell as a human with no powers.
Tanya then gets 3 awards, her freedom/ ability to reincarnate after death, the ability to never lose any of her past memories without it hurting her, and about a few thousands questions answered. In an instant she is back on the battlefield with Empire losing but no one is dying.
There is then 3 time jumps in the story. The real history of the War explained by a war reporter talking about Tanya in 1962. Tanya’s life in America in the 1940’s. And Tanya’s life in 2099 with a new world cult that believes Tanya is the messiah and is destined to bring all humanity together on Earth and the Milky Way galaxy.

Her ruthlessness and lack of mercy towards other people is unmatched, if she could pull an Eren Jaeger and do The Rumbling, she’d do it for fun and with a smile on her face.
Quite an honor to be so early at this fine exhibit
Everywhere I go, I see your face
I was waiting for you
She's gonna destroy the world, for the funny!
Wildly untrue, in fact she even states herself she hates war, considers it bad for the nation, and over all a waste of resources. Tanya's choices and feelings are almost always formed out of pure pragmatism, if it doesn't work, it's stupid, but if it's the rules, she follows them.
In DND, she would absolutely be a Lawful aligned character. She wouldn't want the rumbling, by virtue of it completely throwing of any form of future trade between nations, by virtue of everyone else being dead.
the funniest part about this is that what she did in the enemy city wasn't really a war crime because she _warned_ them before carpet bombing them. absolute madlass behavior.
"People call it a war crime. I call it tuesday morning." Tanya's drip is pitch black, dyed with the blood of her enemies (and the occasional ally), not gonna lie.
Nah bro thats a monday morning if anything i shocked they did create a rule against her nuking cities
I thought you would have addressed the biggest evidence that Tanya is evil.
She tried to disobey orders to commit genocide on an entire people for the same reasoning in Exhibit B - let the enemy escape and they'll come back.
She terrified her own commanding officer. But the most messed up part of that was that she was right - because they stopped her, the enemy came back.
That's the most unsettling part of it to me. She's clearly evil, but her logic is sound and she ends up being more right than not.
@@johnnyd.1004 I mean that's how it works.

@@johnnyd.1004 That's why she is such a well-written villain. She's not some lunatic with inane thought processes that make you laugh at how nuts the villain is. No. You can follow the logic. And that is what makes her, and other well written villains terrifying. You can see the reasoning. You understand it. You can see how a rational person might be driven to make those decisions. It's because she reasons like a regular human that she is such a terrifying villain, because we can, on some level, relate to her decisions, and that rightfully frightens us.
She didnt disobeyed orders she basically found a loophole to skirt around international treaties and their version of geneva convention.
Same thing happened to our history btw she just adopts our own history to further her agenda.
Yes, this world is the domain of demons, and the faster you become one, the better off you and yours will be...
During 10:36 tanya purposefully used her most innocent choosing voice to make it seem like a child was playing around so that people would not believe they would actually get blown to smithereens, as if she wasn’t a menace enough 😭
I was waiting to see if anyone would bring that up. She told the truth, just in a way that made it seem like a lie. Can't be held liable if they were technically warned. lol
False. Judging by Tanya‘s reactions to her men. She was offended by them telling her she sounded very cutesy while issuing a warning.
Actually, she was just giving the order with her normal voice in the LN. She did so because she assumed Visha was thinking that it would be more legal and proper to have the CO say it instead of her adjudant.
Actually, Tanya has a Tic (hope I spelled that right) . This causes her voice to change in to the "child like" voice. It's like stuttering, she can't control it.
Nah she was dead serious then Victoria said good job for catching them off guard with your pretend voice and tanya is like tf he'll nah
The reason she does all this actually is because she thinks her superiors will reward her with the prize of being put in reserves, but thanks to the misunderstandings she caused thanks to her follow every rule attitude and harsh punishments for breaking, plus the rules with her battle crazy yet patriotic way of fighting and acting they think she wants to fight even more and so she’s put into more war situations.

IRL most of the modern international war laws were written close to the end of or at the end of the WWI that bombing the city scene was so well written and cruel it gave me shivers. Tanya knew that it will be considered as a war crime after everything were to be ended so she wrote a proposition and made upper echelons passed it as a law so as long as you dropped pamphlets 24 hours perior and make an evacuation announcement before the attack it will be legal. So as she were making the air strike to the mages as well as the civilians legally it wasn't her responsibility at all.
Dam
Actally this is wrong treaties before ww1 does say bombing a city isn't a war crime if the attack is center on military facilities, and the enemy must be notified beforehand. So Tanya didn't comit a war crime. She is quite specific on avoiding those, and makes sure she's a law biding citizen.
Article 26: The officer in command of an attacking force must, before commencing a bombardment, except in cases of assault, do all in his power to warn the authorities.
Article 27: In sieges and bombardments all necessary steps must be taken to spare, as far as possible, buildings dedicated to religion, art, science, or charitable purposes, historic monuments, hospitals, and places where the sick and wounded are collected, provided they are not being used at the time for military purposes.
It is the duty of the besieged to indicate the presence of such buildings or places by distinctive and visible signs, which shall be notified to the enemy beforehand
Sheesh
@@elysainempire4628 yup they often didn't take her seriously because she was a child
@@elysainempire4628 yeah but WW1 made people realise how inefficient those laws were and they had another conference in 1923 apeariantly and the international wartime law had changed so many times over the years since for example bombing a hospital is a warcrime but bombing a power station and killing hundreds of people being treated in said hospital indirectly from crippling the hospital is fine. Or bombing an industrial area. Tanya having that knowledge wrote an assay and a proposition and gave it to Zetour he than planned the operation accordingly. It was a warcrime but Tanya thought them to get around and find the backdoor.

Tanya really inherited that *FETCH ME THEIR SOULS* smile lmfao.
Tanya is one of my favorite characters out of everyone.
1. She follows the rules and strictly implement them to others and herself. She tries to follow the rules as much as possible to set an example to her colleagues.
2. She applies her sympathy in a lawful manner. As long as helping others is not going to break any rule, she will do it. She is not someone to be affected by her sympathy to break a rule.
3. She is really smart. She doesn't do everything without thinking. She always analyze things before taking actions. It is rare for her arrogantly do something.
4. She is petty. If you did something wrong to her, she will get you back. It is also in a way that you can't blame her because it was all within the rules. Just like how she sent those two arrogant bastards to the rear to die off without much blame on her.
5. She tries to take different approach to people depending on their personality.
6. She doesn't really take unecessary credit and boast about it. She doesnt use her position to exploit anyone.
tbf at the beginning she was tryna get out of going to the frontlines and wanted to just chill so I guess that's one of the reasons why she doesn't boast or take unnecessary credit.
She also absolutely HATES war, she says it's a waste of human life and resources. She is literally trying to end it, but the incompetence and arrogance of those around her, perpetuates the war.

That is so frickin true!
The guy wasn't just chronically late to work, and did sub-par performance, he intentionally antagonized all his fellow workers, and did illegal drugs, and was a frequent no-call/no-show. While it's not covered in the anime or manga, the fired guy also refused numerous rehab programs offered by the protagoinst, leaving the guy who would be reincarnated into Tanya no choice but to fire him.
Then rather than accept this wake-up call, the lazy drug snorting yahoo shoves the one who fired him infront of a train, in front of many witnesses.
Then "Being X" shows up and entraps our MC into agreeing to an "experiment" to see if he would have his faith awakened by being thrust into the horrors of war. When that fails to go as planned "Being X' continues to torment and taunt Tanya, even forcing her to use a magical artifact that strips away her sanity and free will every time she uses it to protect herself from the armed invaders into her home country.
I don't know about you, but you don't have to be "Satan Incarnate" to be royally ticked at being treated that badly.

It's a miracle she didn't take Madara's spot right on recruitment. Legit, Tanya is a genuine menace. Man, woman, elder, child, soldier, civilian, it don't matter, cause her bullets are genuinely rated E for everyone. Plus all the psychological conditioning of her own men and literally sending them to die for not following her orders... even her own allies aren't safe
Madara is not as...Fleshed out as Tonya so she should have been had a higher spot then him. Madara lost his brother to war. Her-hum. Imagine GOD having it out for you.
True, the novel explains in a passing from an allied perspective in the trenches that the francois Republic of the Rhine Theater wanted her so dead that they send everything at her, and when they did shells, bullets, and Magix would rain down from the sky turning everything and everyone in to Unfortunate casualties
And she's smart enough to commit warcrimes without them even being counted as warcrimes...
A smart person that has no moral compass is way more scary than a person that's just evil.
On a side note, the main reason she send those dudes to die in that bunker is twofold.
1. They were endangering her and her team by not following orders and instead being gloryseekers attacking targets they were not assigned to attack. It meant her team had to go into danger and might not be able to fulfill the mission they actually were assigned.
2. Someone had to man that bunker. May as well be these two suicidal people.
@@Maddinhpws exactly. It's not just "err you don't obey me, DIE!" Its more "you endager everyone and the mission by not following orders to do what YOU thought was right, instead of your CO. You want glory, you be the one to man the spots that need people people with a high death rate"

Technically she isn't.

The funny thing is that every situation that has her going off the deep end, she's been pushed into it just like the train from the previous life. The cold hard logic that dictates survival doesn't leave too many options. There's no B.S.'ing out of it or around it. Even if she could be judged as evil, one could still find ways to empathize with the anti-hero in that situation. (You may not like her even, but you understand where its all coming from.) In that regard, it's kind of an intriguing story that gives a good explanation for such a dark character.
This story is a pretty interesting take on the Isekai genre, with its protagonist compassionless, dishonorable, sadistic and morally bankrupt, exploiting every technicality in the legal and military system to allow herself to be as openly malevolent and destructive as she wants. Her only “redeemable” quality is her will and strategic mind being so strong that she could push herself to survive in this wartorn world.
Tanya's just incapable of feeling empathy. She is not sadistic. At no point does she expressly seek to torment others. She was perfectly content making an honest living in a society which prioritizes rules as much as she does. It could also be argued that while she may not be moral she is in fact a paragon of ethical behavior, as her entire sense of self seems to be based on following her society's codes of conduct.
I love this show, so damn good, especially how Tanya just doesn't want to be in danger and just accidentally keeps making herself too good that they keep putting her into more and more important and dangerous positions.

There were technically no war crimes here. Officers are allowed to kill soldiers who disobey orders in the field in a summary execution. She followed the protocols to the letter during the battle of Arene, allowing every chance for the resistance to surrender. And the whole Souix family thing was brought on by themselves. The Republic was an invading force. She was not only within her rights there, she was legally obligated to light them up. As for Mary "Can't follow an order to save her life" Can't hit the broad side of a barn" Souix, she is literally going out of her way to find trouble.

In Isekai Quartet, Aqua got lucky that they were able to convince her that Aqua wasn't the Being X (aka God). The moment Aqua mentioned that she was a god, Tanya was about to get ready to kill her.
She likes a pint sized Miro
Well, she's actually an adult male.
I mean technically it’s not actually god it’s one of his archangels Tanya meets god in one part but I forgir
"I've seen enough. Sit down." Tanya has so much Black Air Force Energy, that even CJ is disgusted with her. A complete savage. I wonder if Ainz will eventually make the table. Actually, the whole Great Tomb of Nazarick needs its own Round Table because it is full of menaces.
After watching Isekai Quartet even Ainz is low-key afraid of her.
Indeed. Lord Ainz needs a table and the Guardians because they are all Savage.
When you scare FRIGGIN CJ DA CHAMP, That's when you know we're dealing with a next level threat to soceity.
Honestly, if anyone in Nazarick deserves a seat at the round table then it'd be Demiugre. His "happy farm" is quite frankly the stuff of Nightmares!
Dude took 70k souls in not even 1 move and made the others clap till they shitted themselves
Imagine seeing a five year old girl hovering above a neighborhood, deciding to nuke it because she felt like it.
Um ackshually she’s 12 but honestly it doesn’t make the feeling even less humiliating
Tanya is the definition of "peace was never an option". Tanya is the definition of "peace was never an option".
also "when god is against you"
Think about it for a second. Tanya was just a menace to humanity. Such an embodiment of evil that GOD had to send an upgraded, magic juiced up, LITERAL MARY SUE to kill her. And in the end, God had to pull out the plot armor trap card from its ass to save said Mary Sue.
Tanya was menace to the world at that point. Tanya did not care whatsoever, straight up had a whole damn buffed Mary Sue on her ass and rocked her shit. Mary Sue was lucky that plot armor kicked in or she'd be the same as her pops, dead as hell.
@@wrinklybrain832 The Plot Armor only exists in the Anime. In the light Novel not long after that. Mary Sue is killed by the people she is working for as she is a HOT HOT Dumpster fire of a mess after that. Tanya Broke her something fierce.
@@wrinklybrain832 Yeah mary sue legit died like 4x if it werent for plot armor, if not more.
God created Tanya himself fym lol
@@wrinklybrain832 I mean Tanya got crazy plot armor. It's so obvious.
You know how terrifying Tanya is?
Ainz Oal Gown, the Skele-dad himself, in Isekai Quartet considered Tanya's power above 8th level magic when she cornered Aqua.
Meaning Tanya would likely be a genuine challenge to his own tougher subordinates if not outright stronger than them. Even his Floor Guardians treat her with respect, and they see humans as garbage.
it is not much coming from him after all they all trash in compression to other anime power levels
@@idonargesy8197 I always wonder how different systems of magic would stack up against one another. If it came to an all out brawl, my money would be on Mahouka’s systematized magic. Just Tatsuya’s Gram Demolition and Gram Dispersion would already be an absolute nightmare for other magic users, because it can destroy _any_ magical structure. Pair that with Mist Dispersion/Trident, Astral Dispersion, Material Burst, Miyuki’s Cocyutus and only the “divine” magic users might stand a chance at that point
Couldnt Ainz just use an insta kill spell though
@@goofygoober7750 that is if ainz got a prep time in which, tanya wouldn't give to him.
@@themanwhocantbemovedbyatru1988 ainz got items that nulify the cooldown to use a spell
Since I've seen people question it before, regarding Tanya's pronouns, the novels actually address this. Basically, in her mind Tanya still considers herself a man, and given the option would rather turn back into one, but has been a girl for so long now that being treated and reffered to as one doesn't bother her. So yes, the correct way to refer to Tanya is she.
The novels also go into her views on potential romance and sex, since if she's stuck here for the rest of her life she'll be an adult eventually. In her mind, she considers herself to be a straight man, but in her current body that would make her lesbian, which she doesn't find appealing and wouldn't be fair to potential partners. So basically she's decided to just be celibate.
"considers himself a man"
"so she is the correct way to refer to tanya"
the stupidity you people exhibit is astounding
Well that's interesting...I've never seen a character written like this

@@SumGh0st hey if he has got a issue with what I did then he should’ve made things so I don’t have to send people to go see him early or it’s the reverse and he knew id end up doing this and why from the start when he made all this happen. So if he’s omnipotent and Omnipresent then he’s more at fault than I am for those murders and if he’s not both those things then he ain’t really a god and certainly ain’t worth respecting or fearing the disapproval of. But my tangent about pre-determinism aside did I say anything about bragging about having to put folk down? No I didn’t. Also having to put folk down ain’t Necessarily a sin or a bad thing so let’s not act like it is.
@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus Whether he is in the right or not, he will assume it was Tanya's fault. Remember, we're talking about a self-proclaimed perfect being who miscalculated the breeding rate of humans and STILL blamed them, while also whining and complaining about how tiring his job was
The building that those two were placed in for disobeying orders is commonly known as a pillbox and was known to be the highest location for casualty ratings during the world wars as it was the opposing sides best bet to destroy in case there were troops stationed inside, and in doing so the only troops sent to these pillboxes were usually those that got into deep shit with their CO as punishment in stead of sending them home cuz army needed the numbers, but the main purpose of these buildings was to make sure none of the enemy troops could sneak past without the main force knowing
People seem to not understand the implications of the fact that Tanya is a sociopath. She completely lacks a moral compass and because of that she latches onto rules and power structures following them to the letter. She can consider how her actions fit within the rules of society, war, and the military hierarchy, but has no way to factor morality into a decision, making every decision of hers cold and logical. I would argue that her actions should not be judged as moral or immoral because it literally is not something that Tanya can consider. Regularly through the novels Tanya records and comments on the illogical decisions made by others, decisions that she admits that she does not understand how they made them, and those decisions are the result of the moral framework that she lacks.
You don't blame the bear for mauling the hiker because the bear has no concept of morality as humans understand, you blame the hiker for being unprepared and careless. Tanya fits in the same category. She has no way to make a distinction between moral and immoral acts, she can only discern actions allowable within the rules and orders she has been given. Hence why, despite being staunchly anti-war and a pacifist when possible, she gravitated to the military, the only power structure with clear rules that was available to her. The books make it seem that Tanya lacks the ability to impose rules upon herself entirely, hence her lack of morals and need to find a place within an existing power structure, because she lacks morals she craves rules to tell her what to do. This is well covered in the books, and I can highly recommend them because they delve deep into the ethical and philosophical repercussions of the existence of sociopaths.
That’s a really interesting way of looking at it! I always thought that Tanya just enjoyed killing people and war in general, simply hiding her bloodlust behind the rules and objectives of the army.
@@davidg8117 Tanya is definitely ruthless. But she never goes out of her way to fight if it isn't needed. For example, early on during the battle of the Rhine, when she nukes the Republican Mages, she starts by giving them all a chance to surrender. This isn't a merciful act but a calculated one to avoid spending more effort than would be needed. This is immediately followed by Tanya eliminating all of the Mages in a single strike as it is much faster than engaging in a prolonged dogfight. Nowhere in this interaction is Tanya being merciful; she is just being lazy.
As another example, she regularly protects her subordinates. In the books, she regularly regards them as emergency meat shields and constantly reminds herself that they are ultimately disposable. And yet, she still goes out of her way to protect them on several occasions. The reason is twofold. First, Tanya has convinced herself that losing troops could be bad for her career if she loses troops, even though command is regularly surprised that her wing doesn't take casualties often. Second, it would be too much effort to have to retrain replacements, so Tanya avoids having to deal with that by not losing troops. She actively makes more work for herself in order to avoid work.
Well said, and thank you for this. I love both the anime and novel versions of Tanya, but the anime version's bloodthirst is definitely played up for the fun factor (which I understand). The mental maze novel Tanya lives in is more to digest, but really interesting. I liked that in the movie, Tanya's characterization was closer to her novel self, a bit more thoughtful, level-headed, and tuned in with her subordinates. Hoping they run more along those lines for season 2.
I mostly agree what I will say is that even sociopaths can understand morality it just needs to be explained in a way that doesn’t use emotions to explain it. This is why medieval societies There were plenty of sociopaths who function normally these things are explained because of religious reasons sociopaths only really can’t Function in the modern day, because in the modern day, we explain morality through feelings, and not through other concepts If Tanya was raised, religious, was taught that her most important duty was to love God and then they would explain that God wants you to treat people in certain ways, because, his law says so she would probably be a decent person who would follow or at least try to the laws of the Bible, and that they should be a good part of society and older societies understood they couldn’t expect people to behave off feelings as much because societies were a lot harsher. They expected people to be a lot colder than we expect people to be today, thus their moral systems that they taught generally rule us based off feelings in this functioned, even with psychopaths, because they made sense to them. The main reason psychopaths don’t function properly and moderate society that well is because you wouldn’t value something that you couldn’t understand, and in our modern society things like because God tells you to make equally is a little sense people aren’t taught to be devout. But then again, I’m not as sociopath. This is just based off, listening to people with mental illnesses that are basically sociopaths and hearing their thoughts on things and then with my historical knowledge trying to figure out why an older societies I don’t really hear people talking about this being a problem as much. (Also, all errors are because this is voice type. I probably slurred my words, or the phone couldn’t understand my accent.)
Considering the first example of "morals" the MC does not understand is the guy committing a murder out of spite for getting fired. Lacking "moral compass" doesn't sound that evil from this perspective. Sounds like people trying to hide their irrational decisions behind some "greater wisdom" that ultimately leads them to commit heinous acts that are supposed to be justified because they weren't entirely calculated.
just noticed that the crying dude at 1:35, his glasses are fogging up from said crying, neat little detail.
4:40 from what i remember reading the novel she is manifesting combat simulants in her body to prep for the fight, its why she kind of looked like she went crazy but she actually was just pumped up on drugs for a tactical advantage.

The episode where they are ordered to just kill this entire town is super painful to watch and genius at the same time. Because none of them is happy or proud of it and it just showes these civilians getting murdered on the one hand and then Tanya's soldiers getting traumatised on the other. This entire anime is a fantastic war criticism hidden underneath a isekai with cool looking action.

What is it called when
Watched it and loved the series. And while Tanya definitely does sketchy shit, the true antagonist/"bad guy" is Being X who for some reason seems to have it out for this one particular human. Can't exactly blame her for going a little bonkers when a literal "god" is out to get her.
What is this anime
@@dacodanoyes6230 Saga of Tanya the Evil
She commits war crimes on the daily bro
The funniest irony I have with the entire series is that Being X wants to be worshipped as a god, yet fails to understand one of the most direct and easiest to understand people in the series.
@@volrag He fails to understand nothing, He communicates via direct telepathy and it's how they saw right through all the Salaryman's empty platitudes. Also, Tanya (and the viewers as well) seems to have forgotten that the whole "Suffering leads to Faith" was entirely the Salaryman's idea (plucked from their head via telepathy to the Salaryman's chagrin because they thought lying to God would actually work) so her continued denial of God's existence is actually countering her own argument which her entire spite ridden existence is fueled by.
The music video was for the benefit of her lieutenant (blue-eyed girl). She was originally from the country they were in, but was chased out for being able to use magic.
Damn that's actually really nice of her
I can't believe those idiots actually chased away their mages. I get being envious of their abilities but like, they're the best offense against outsiders, literally the backbone of their society, and they just shot themselves in the foot by kicking them out. Did nobody think how weak they would be without their mage population? Was anyone there even thinking? At all?

The absolute disrespect from Tanya is just mindboggling. She literally came out the gate on demon timing
"How dare she kill my father! What did he do other than try to kill her on 3 separate occasions?"
The best part is the war crimes wouldn't be legally called "war crimes" seeing as she gave the warning and all the civilians were counted as combatants. She would be brought to trial and let go.
And her enemies can’t fabricate any war crime evidence since as with the dead hostage situation, she probably recorded her justifications.
@@ac1455 Not, "Probably", She DID record it. It's why she wasn't reprimanded for it at all.
@@RadicalKattastrophe Yo tbh, tania sounds like someone who would legit study the way war crimes work just in case she gets isekaied. Cuz even if someone else just as fucked up was to be reincarnated in the same position, they would be unable to come up with most of that shit.
@@Otgel bitch was a cold, ruthless ass businessman so uh.
@@Otgel To be fair. In the Anime it's partially of screen, but Tanya read all the, "Rules of war", once she was of rank to do so. She also wrote a couple Thesis papers on it. It's one of the reasons she gets promoted so fast. She is MAKING new "Rules of War!".
To those that want to know, God puts her in tough situations that forces her to use the medallion but in order to activate the medallion, she needs to make a prayer because God is a sick being and dislikes that she is a atheist. Also, each use of the medallion causes mental instability, so her personality becomes more warped.
1) being X is not god just something that feeds in faith. The manga showed it.
2) Tanya is coerced to pray. Being X strapped a bomb to her chest, so the choices were either pray or boom.
3) Tanya loses the game if Tanya becomes a believer so will overcome the challenges etc... then survive without being X.
She basically prays in spite aslong as she continues to does so being X haven't wn yet
@@burningwolf5805 being X may not be God with a capital 'G',,but he's certainly a god or something close to it. Tanya's the type of person to argue with Genghis Khan and be surprised he razes her village.
@@2ndlaborofHercules what people worship as god's does not actually make them God. People worship trees, or statues or even demons and then call them god's but they are not actually God.
Best to see being X similar to a vampire that is dependent upon human blood for sustenance and survival except being X feeds on faith.
Simar to vampires or demons being X is not without powers as it was the one that paused time in the Japanese salary-man world but spoke about how there is not much faith despite humans being 7 billion.
But viewers are not paying attention to the consequences of being X feeding on their faith. Adelheid Von Schugel aka the eccentric scientist of the Empire. Who was a scientist brilliant mind that pushed himself and human limits to break human boundaries and limitations.
But when he became a "believer" more specifically being X began to feed on his faith, he changed overnight became more of a religious fanatic and dependent no longer on his own mind skills and abilities but now on being X.
You have the Sioux family that was being X stick to punish Tanya with. They lost themselves to a revenge quest convinced that Tanya was a demon just because they lost to their enemy. Like making a pact with demons for powers but you lose yourself you lose your souls, the Sioux family obtained powers from being X to "smite Tanya Von Degurechaff what they branded a devil.
Anson Sioux was more than an old soldier. Respected by his allies and subordinates and loved by his family that he loved in return. But now he became an empty shell, no more than a spirit of vengeance haunted by the men he failed and country he could not protect. Mary Sioux is empathetic, concerned for people and forces around her, however abandons the people and becomes insubordinate when the opportunity to kill Tanya arises.
Point is that as long as being X feeds on faith being X cares not for the damage it causes to the person being fed on or the people country and environment around it.
@@2ndlaborofHercules now because Tanya is forced to pray but is a staunch atheist. It is a one sided deal in favour of Tanya. Since she gets strong mana and magic but there is no "faith" for being X to feed upon.
Tanya’s a living example of “So anyway I started blasting.”
I like how this anime never tries to make you believe that he’s secretly a good guy.
Tanya might be the living embodiment of “when times were tough we were tougher”
