Thanks for adding this :)

I didn't see it on recently added.

I prefer this to Girls und Panzer - Motto Love- i assume its an official Girls und Panzer thing not a doujin?

Its cool to see a 10yr old Miho and some of her back story :)

Happy to finally read it! And yeah, all three series are official, and can be considered canon (given the fact they're all written by the same people).

Amazing, I was crazy over the anime and didn't know there was a back story manga series.
I wonder where is Emi now.

Wow, what a terrible mother.

So in the Panzerkraft world cup, I'm guessing she will meet Emi again.

Wow, what a terrible mother.

I thought the same in the anime- Miho never did anything wrong but her mother sure did- she deserves her house and style to forfeit all honor.

I wasn't expecting much from this really, but then I got completely into reading and having so much fun while doing so. The characters are so cute, I really hope they show up sometime in the main series, I don't know why but I loved Emi so much, she is so adorable~ I ship her with Miho so bad also >////<

Very nice prequel...the "tanoshii" kinda ruined my immersion lol.

I kinda wish we got to see her old friends reactions to Miho winning the Tankery championships.

Me reading this was intense I was like "omg this is kinda intense".

Finally got around to reading all the Girls Und Panzer stuff, and I've gotta say this is the best of the three official series. Motto Love Love got a bit too nuts at times (although canon Orange Pekoe x Darjeeling was nice) and the original series was kind of disappointing. It simply didn't deliver on the tension or a lot of the interpersonal relationships.

On the other hand, Little Army was really satisfying in a lot of the ways the original series wasn't. You got a good feel for the characters both as kids and as a team, and their issues really seemed to mean something.

One of the best parts of this story is that the characters each get more attention and development. This is especially true of Maho, who comes off as a more interesting and likable character when you see more about her personality and relationship with Miho.

Incidentally, there is a sequel to this manga out, which apparently features Hitomi and Emi.

I wonder if anyone has picked up the sequel for translation. After reading this I really want to see more about them.

^Chapters 1 and 2 of Little Army 2 are already out on the /ak/ scans wiki.

Ah, much appreciated.

/ak/'s sub of the anime has the same issue. They could not decide whether or not to leave senshado senshado, or use the German term "panzerkraft". Nor could they decide to leave Onee-chan Onee-chan, or leave the -sama honorific in. No clue why they left tanoshii untranslated, but they fucked up in other ways besides that.

Is that katyusha? https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/girls_und_panzer_little_army_ch02#11

Would be great if they include this in season 2 and make them go against each other .. TT^TT

a somewhat long-winded story about a girl loosing nearly any match she playes? Was an ok read... a bit booring at times

Apparently I read this in 2014, I have no recollection of doing so, still glad Fake Darjeeling got to meet the real deal.

I agree. Part of the appeal of the first Little Army was showing that Maho was a more complex and sympathetic character than she seemed like at the time of her introduction, and showing that Miho did love tankery as long as she could do it with her friends, so the sequel didn't really have what made the original so compelling for me.
