Why Girls und Panzer is the Best Entry Anime for a Beginner

Girls und Panzer is the best entry show.


It has all anime has to offer. Almost like a sample board with small pieces of every possible flavor.

However nothing of it goes over the top to ruin the impression. It is very inoffensive as well. Which makes it perfect entry level show for a newcomer who never watched anime before.

It has good and sensible by western standards plot that would not make people go WTF on it. Miho's conflict with her family as well as Oorai girls desire to save their school by pulling senshado team by bootstraps makes a lot of sense. You can parallel wean and small Oorai taking on more pro senshado schools to small and weak Rebel Alliance in StarWars fighting against big and powerful Galactic Empire. You can find Hollywood shows with stories' even closer to that of GuP.

It has some crazy ideas like schools on aircraft carriers, but they are not over the top to give uninitiated people WTF.

It has all possible types of anime waifus, They have hobbies and that would make then relatable for a western viewer. So everyone can find a girl they can like from the cast. None of them are too repulsive to people who are not into that type of girl, so no one will quit over the cast problems. Some people hate even Albedo from Overlord, that would be a complete shocker for them if they see Asuka.

It has small slice of life episodes mixed in the main plot, so people can see that aspect of anime without getting bored due to lack of plot or anything happening.


After they finish GuP, you can recommend them something else based on what they liked or did not liked in it.
