How Girls und Panzer is BETTER than Fury

  • Been tossing this video idea around in my head for awhile and finally decided to try to explain my opinion on this. Obviously this could be a VERY controversial video but please remember this is my opinion and I BY NO MEANS think Fury is a bad movie.

    To answer a few questions I'm sure quite a few people will ask before the fill the comments:
    1) The background footage is from Girls und Panzer Dream Tank Match
    2) I'm not an Uber fan of GuP I just appreciate what it does for the Tank community
    3) The Cone standing in the corner is to hopefully prevent the automatic ID system to detect the small clips I used for reference since it IS fair use for this purpose but could still get flagged (fingers crossed)
    Hopefully you guys enjoy this video and if you want to suggest movies for me to potentially make a video like this about in the future comment them below.

      I think the Russian film, T-34 shows that dynamic between the different crews in a few of the scenes, such as the opening tank battle and the latter one. Although the Germans aren’t always getting their forefront distinction, they show it nonetheless. Also a great film for CGI stuff as well. Looks really damn good

    I'm majoring as a history teacher (hoping to have my diploma next year) and I have been teaching high school kids and even some older ones for the last three years during internships. The hardest part is really to make it interesting for them. It doesn't take long for kids to question you why they are learning history and about dead people, like it doesn't matter to them.
    One of the best moments I had was when I was teaching a class about the 2nd World War and I had brought a few items along to show them. The boys of course were interested in my M1905 bayonet (the long boi) that I brought with me, because it's a weapon. However before that class I came with the idea to buy a can of Fanta from the vending machine in the school. This was the item they were most interested in. Of course I asked them what they thought Fanta had to do with World War II. They partially got it right by saying it was something that existed during World War II and was drunken by soldiers. When I told them the story of how and why it was invented by Nazi-Germany, they got hooked into the story. It really shows that there is a certain connection you need to make between history and the current day, in this case a historical and current day every day object.
    The best part came when at the end of class one student asked if he could have the can of Fanta. He asked it nicely so I gave it to him. While I was cleaning up the desk after class and students left the classroom I suddenly heard: "I GOT A CAN OF NAZI SODA!" From the hallway. It had me laughing and told me I did a good job.

      What you learn about the Tiger I is that *it could traverse its turret 120 deegres in three seconds.*
      Also, we learn that *Char B1 can sustain (not just "reach") 20 Km/h off road.*

    One of the things not mentioned related to the accuracy of the tanks, probably due to Cone not being a megafan of GuP, is that Actas, the animation studio, worked with wargaming to produce the models. This is most apparent in der Film's credits, where wargaming has their own section of people.

    As a tanker, I was so excited when Fury came out. I was hoping for a movie the showed the struggles and comraderie of a tank crew. While it did that to an extent, I felt it spent far too much energy being gritty and edgy, especially with that shitty breakfast scene.
    GuP on the other hand does a phenomenal job of showing this. You get a feeling that the not only are the individual crews a family, but the entire team is a family similar to a real tank platoon or company (at least the good ones). That's probably why I enjoy GuP so much. The history nerdism, and the feel good nature that reminds me of the good ol days.

    Additionally, the crew positions are actually modelled as to how it would've been for the crew of the actual tanks. The best example os the M3 Lee, the Driver has to kind of lean to get a good view out of their viewing port. This was shown in the very first episode in the Ōarai vs St. Gloriana Exhibition Match, with the M3 Lee driver sitting not quite in-line with their viewing port.

    honestly I was incredibly impressed with the accuracy of the show. It's not the technical accuracies like the "tank drifting" that matter, it's the spirit of it. It's the fact that they play to the historic strengths and weaknesses of the tanks, such as the Churchill's heavy armour or the KV-2s tendency to tip over on a slope, and throughout their stories constantly pepper in tidbits about what life was really like for tankers.
    Also the research and clear love for the topic that goes into it. Like, if they need a big boss enemy, they won't just make something up, they'll find a REAL tank that was rare or experimental, and if they need to, say, fill a characters room or a cafe with tank memorabilia, they'll go out of their way to make sure that everything relates to something real, like a copy of a real life Tamiya model kit, or a specific type of tank shell

As a result of making the specific machinery stand out (many films use tanks merely as a plot device for the characters instead of as a draw of their own), I became interested in the tanks they used rather than just the story they’re used to tell. And I’ve become really into these tanks since watching the show. Keep up the good work!

    The thing with GuP is that most of the inaccuracies are clearly intentional choices, not dumb mistakes or pandering or laziness. The people who made the show clearly love tanks, and did their homework. The show is full of subtle details that you'd never notice if you aren't already well informed about the machines involved, but will make you smile when you do spot them. It's like the difference between a skilled musician who purposefully messes around with the music he's playing to have fun, vs an unskilled amateur who plays it wrong because he doesn't know any better.
    To name just one trivial example: Late in the series, the four girls of the school's automotive club who have been maintaining the tanks until now, join the team to operate the Porsche Tiger prototype, which was a tank well known for its many mechanical issues. At one point, the engine breaks down during during a match. The crew act mildly annoyed rather than surprised, and one girl calmly climbs out and starts fixing the engine, while the tank is still driving. It's completely silly and ridiculous, but on the other hand, the Porsche Tiger *did* have 2 engines with electric drive, so, at least in principal, it really could drive on one engine. Of course, fixing an engine on a moving tank while it's hot from running still silly, but the scene calls out a cool and obscure technical detail in a way that's both humorous and exciting, but it doesn't shove your face in it. It's just a few seconds with no-one calling attention to why they can do that, so you'll only appreciate it later when you get curious and read about the Porsche Tiger (or while watching if you're a real tank nerd).

    • @notfeedynotlazy

      Or the amusing bit of trivia that in WWII tanks WERE driven over other tanks, both intentionally and accidentally, which is hilariously referenced on the Maus scene (and with a tank whose chasis was later used for a tank towing vehicle, for added amusement value), facts that one discovers when investigating whether the scene is TOTALLY fictional or has at least some kind of plausibility, even if the scene is greatly exagerated for fun. I even remember someone making the calculation that the Hetzer's chasis would REALLY stand that weight without structural failure - but its suspension would not, which is EXACTLY what the series depicts.
      Also, I've watched footage of WWII-era tanks _actually drifting over cobbled streets_ (a captured T-26 pulling a 180 for show at the victory parade of the winning side of the Spanish Civil War). Have you noticed that ALL the tank drifting scenes (but the ones of the hilariously improved Porshe Tiger - those are done for laughs) happen over paved surfaces? Yes I knew you noticed. They did. But you need to have watched that rare footage or you'll believe it's impossible.

The vehicles are all real and accurate, the tactics are at least based off of what the original factions used, was all-around entertaining without being WoT-level inaccurate. Besides, any budding history nerd would know better than to see this and actually believe that's how it was in real life.

  • @johnmoreno9636
    @johnmoreno9636 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I needed to throw my 2 cents in as to why GuP is better than Fury.
    1) Fury is a war movie that happens to involve tanks. GuP is a series about tanks written by history nerds that uses a silly premise to make watching tanks more interesting and fun than watching a documentary. But make no mistake: GuP is loaded with historical references and tries to show how different countries used their different tanks in different ways.
    2) Fury is a war movie, with the bloody parts that is part of war, but means you cannot watch it with children present. A Lt shooting himself in the head while burning is realistic, but not suitable for children and a girlfriend who is not into war. GuP is unique, even among anime, where you have tank fight scenes, but nobody gets hurt and while fierce competitors, everybody winds up friends. GuP you can watch with older children present. In fact, GuP shows that you can want to win, and be fierce, but respect competitors for their strengths. Most anime, let alone war movies, do not have this message.
    3) Tanks among nations: GuP actually emphasizes the differences between nations and their tanks. Yes, it makes caricatures of the various nations, but if you watch the series you know the difference between British/Japanese/German/American/French/Italy (who know Italy had tanks?), their characteristics and how they were employed. StugIII sniping. Heavy British infantry tanks. Gudarian saying a tank's engine is as much a weapon as its cannon. Name one war movie or anime that shows so many nation's tanks to the point that you can tell them apart.
    4) Tactics: Yes GuP ignores tank speed. Otherwise, the British infantry tanks like Matilda could not participate with Crusaders. Yet you know Germans like heavy tanks and precision; Americans like firepower and overwhelming numbers; Japanese bonzai attacks. And Fury gets the tactics wrong as well. On the dramatic 3 Shermans vs 1 Tiger, Fury has the German tank commander act like an idiot. First, the Tiger would not break cover and move forward: his advantage is outranging the Shermans - moving forward closes the distance more quickly to his detriment. Second, Fury had the upgraded cannon. Normally German tank commanders target the upgraded Shermans first, leaving the weaker 75mm cannon Shermans for last. In fact, US tanks would paint their upgraded cannons to look short like 75s so they would not be first to be blown up. Fury's Tiger does exactly the opposite to doctrine. Brad Pit should have died first - but then where would the movie be if the Germans followed doctrine and Brad dies quickly.
    5) Why would a SS regiment be without panzerfausts, which would make short work of Fury. That is why tanks want infantry support, which is doctrine.
    6) History: there are several TH-cams where history nerds describe all the various historical references in GuP. Even their birthdays refer to historical events like the invasion of Russia. Or the Germans hitting Orai quickly by going through the forest, like the Ardennes in May 1940 or the Battle of the Bulge. If you watch GuP several times, you begin to wonder "What was Operation Bagration?" Fury is not about history. It is about war and the tragedy that results. GuP is about WW2 tanks and history, with cute girls in short skirts thrown in for entertainment.
    7) Tanks: how many people knew that German tanks, while powerful, had belts that break and other mechanical problems. Or that Shermans could be steered by idiots. Or that Matildas had thicker armor than PanzerIVs. I never heard of a KV-2 or JS-2 or Sherman Firefly. And what about those Finnish tanks! Who knew? And that was without watching the GuP short series about the tanks used in the series. I think you could argue that the tanks in GuP are more important characters than the tanks in Fury.
    You could get the same information in a documentary, but GuP is more interesting to watch for the entertainment.
    8) Guilty Pleasure: I have to admit, that after working hard and getting home late, I continually watch GuP because it has exciting tank battles, but no blood and guts and it is entertaining. Plus it has cute girls, sometimes in bikinis. I can relax, focus on eating, and still be entertained by tank battles, even with my daughter around. Documentaries you have to focus on to get maximum knowledge, and death and destruction is not always wanted.
    9) Music: I knew the German Panzerlied. But had never heard the Russian Katyusha. The Japanese songs are quite catchy. I knew the French Onion song because I do French Napoleonic Grenadier reenacting, and so was quite pleased to hear it. The songs are great. I actually looked up Katyusha on TH-cam to hear the whole thing. And that is the difference between Fury and GuP. GuP makes you want to do more research about the stuff they bring up. I did not get that motivation from Fury.
    10) Damn I wish my high school offered tankery/Sensha Do. I did NOT want to be in Brad Pitt's shoes.
    To conclude: Fury is about war and the tragedy that results. Fury revolves around the Human characters. GuP the tanks are at least as important as characters as the girls. Yes, you do get a feel for each of the human characters, and feel sympathy for each one. I already mentioned the nice moral concept of being fiercely competitive but not mean to your opponents. But you also learn that a M3 Lee is outmatched by an Elefant. Or the JagdPanzer is a monster that shrugs off most cannonfire. Or Crusaders are zippy. GuP is completely packed with historical references. If you watch Fury would you know more about tanks than watching, say, Bridge Too Far. But watching GuP you will know more about a large variety of tanks, and not have to endure blood and guts to do it.

      Ironically, GuP is one of the reasons why I got so hooked up with MBTs. Cpt. Chono's Type 10 and her introduction was one of the best parts of the series.
      Though, I can understand why there are no MBT concept for Sensha-do. Can you imagine trying to tell the difference between a T-72, T-80, and a T-90? M1A1 and M1A2 Abrams? Or even a Leopard 1 and 2? Perhaps full on tank nerds that love modern tanks like me can identify, but for the casual viewer or WW2 onlys, the difference is non-existent or very minimal.

Also just because they use that symbol does not mean they are Nazis mayby they do it to be more historical accurate (I am not saying it is historical accurate fully but a good part is historically accurate) like the part where the Finnish tank drives without its tracks which it could do and has been done before or how the KV2 when on a slight slope tipped over sideways which it actually did as well as many other small details for all of the tanks not just the Nazis but the Soviets , France , US , Finland and Japan.

    Not only do I love this anime, I read the manga a little bit as well, I found out about it during school when I stumbled upon a video called "How to defeat a Maus." And it sparked my love for anime, though at the time I didn't know it was something you would be made fun for liking. I get made fun of for liking tanks as well... But regardless, seeing the Maus in action was a cool scene.

    When you talked about the Maus scene and how that would have looked to a person not familiar with tank history, that actually spoke to me because that actually was me.
