Girls und Panzer #2
Girls Und Panzer Vol. 2
Tank girls take the front seat in this new manga series based on the popular military anime.
You may have heard of kung fu, but the girls at Oarai High School practice gun-fu—really, really BIG 75mm gun-fu, in fact. It's called Sensha-do, and it's the martial art of operating armored tanks! They take it seriously too, and since winning the national Sensha-do championship is such a huge deal at Oarai, they sometimes go to extreme ends in order to get the best students from Panzer class to sign up. Which is how Miho Nishizumi, who HATES operating tanks, gets drafted to join doomsday-driven driver Mako, even-triggered gunner Hana, highly receptive radio operator Saori and combustible tank-fangirl and loader Yukari as the incomparable Anko Team. They may not be on the half-track to fame and fortune, and maybe a few of them would rather shop for tank tops than become tops in tanks, but once their focus is locked and loaded, they're absolutely driven.

More fun to come...
That is until Duce from Anzio high school decided to strut down to Miho and tell her she’ll be defeated. Unfortunately, she got her ass beat. How? Read the book and find out.

The manga left out the whole Sanders match. The characters are soooo different from the anime.

The only thing this manga adaptation is good for is making you appreciate how amazing the anime is by realizing how bad it could have been.
