CATDOLL: Japanese old man is obsessed with Girls und Panzer because the cute girl in the show looks like his late wife

The work "Girls und Panzer" describes delicate military strategies and is mixed with a lot of cute elements of beautiful girls. Therefore, it has successfully captured a large number of fans who like military affairs, and the fan base is regardless of gender, age or young, and crosses the generational gap. In a recent "Girls und Panzer" radio program, the official shared a touching fan story: an old man submitted a post saying that he is more addicted to this work than his grandson! One of the reasons is that he saw the figure of his deceased wife in a character in the work, and used the animation to miss his deceased partner.

Radio program "Girls und Panzer RADIO Bunny Squad in Training"

This "Girls und Panzer" radio program is called "Girls und Panzer RADIO Bunny Team Training", which mainly introduces the works and reads the audience's manuscripts. The grandfather mentioned above submitted the manuscript through his grandson, and the content is roughly as follows:

Since he had been in charge of the maintenance of the Type 89 medium tank in the war, the description of the tank in the work evoked his past memories, and he became more obsessed with the work than his grandson. My favorite character is "Yamago Ayumu" because she is very similar to his late wife when she was young.

At the broadcast site, Nakazato Nozomi, the voice actor for Yamagata Ayumu, and Takeuchi Hitomi, the voice actor for Sawa Azusa, couldn't help but cry when they heard this submission.

Ayumu Yamago is the main gunner of the Bunny Squad in Girls und Panzer. She has a boyish personality, but also has a side that easily accumulates stress. Although she did not have many active performances in the anime, she was previously selected as the poster girl of Ibaraki Airport, and a webtoon with her as the protagonist also attracted attention.

When he was young, the grandfather rode on the Type 89 medium tank and was responsible for cleaning and maintenance. According to the description, he was very surprised when he saw the Type 89 medium tank appear in the animation, and then gradually became fascinated by this work and even started collecting data sets.

It turns out that animation is not only a form of entertainment, but also has a soothing effect...
