Girls und Panzer das Finale (Japanese: ガールズ&パンツァー 最終章, Hepburn: Gāruzu ando Pantsā Sai Shūshō), alternatively Girls und Panzer: The Final Chapter, is a six-part Japanese animated film series and a sequel to Girls und Panzer (2012) and Girls und Panzer der Film (2015). Produced by Actas and distributed by Showgate, the film series is directed by Tsutomu Mizushima from a script written by Reiko Yoshida and features an ensemble cast from previous installments of the franchise.

The film series follows the students of Ōarai Girls' Academy helping Momo Kawashima with her university entrance by winning the Winter Continuous Track Cup. With Miho Nishizumi leading the academy's tank unit despite demoting to Vice-Commander to give her commanding position to Momo, Ōarai won the match against BC Freedom Academy and Chihatan Gakuen. They next face off against Keizoku High School in the third match.

A sequel project for the franchise was greenlit in August 2016. Although the project was first teased as a stand-alone film in September 2016, the format was revealed to be a six-part film series in November. The first film in the series was completed four days before its premiere in December 2017. In May 2020, the third film in the series continued its production despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Three films in the series have been released in Japan since 2017: Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 1 on December 9, 2017, Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 2 on June 15, 2019, and Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 3 on March 26, 2021. The film series has grossed over $16 million worldwide and received nominations at Newtype Anime Awards and Tokyo Anime Awards Festival. The fourth film in the series, Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 4, is currently in production.

Films[edit]

Part 1[edit]

As winter arrives, Momo Kawashima is determined to find Ōarai Girls' Academy's missing ninth tank. However, news travels throughout the school that Momo has not been accepted by any universities, resulting in a misleading rumor that she might be held back. Miho Nishizumi and her friends figure that they can get Momo accepted into the same university as Anzu Kadotani and Yuzu Koyama if they can demonstrate that Momo is skilled at Sensha-dō. To achieve this, they name Momo as the commander of Ōarai's tank teams and join the Winter Continuous Track Cup. Anglerfish Team travels below the aircraft carrier's deck to find the tank and wins the challenges set by a delinquent group led by Ogin. Learning of Momo's predicament, Ogin's group decides to join them, forming the Shark Team, to repay their debt to Momo for saving them from expulsion. They also recover the missing Mark IV tank being used as a smokehouse. Ōarai faces off against BC Freedom Academy at the start of the tournament. Yukari Akiyama learns through surveillance that the BC Freedom students are deeply divided between the original students and the high school transfer students, with their commander Marie seemingly oblivious of the situation. Confident that BC Freedom lacks the teamwork for a coordinated defense, Ōarai undertakes a direct attack on their flag tank. However, BC Freedom demonstrates an unexpected esprit de corps and traps Ōarai in a crossfire on a bridge. Ōarai uses Shark Team's tank as a makeshift bridge to escape. BC Freedom and Ōarai retreat following the failed ambush.

Part 2[edit]

After escaping BC Freedom's ambush, Ōarai uses Mallard Team's Renault Char B1 and the cover of a bocage's hedgerows to pose as a BC Freedom tank and reignite the quarrel between their students. Exploiting their opponent's temporary confusion, Ōarai takes out Marie's flag tank and wins the match. While on a break before the next match, Saori Takebe accompanies Momo to her home and meets her four siblings and her frail mother. Meanwhile, Chihatan Gakuen, Pravda Girls' High School, Saunders University High School, Kuromorimine Girls' High School, St. Gloriana Girls' College, Anzio Girls' High School, and Keizoku High School advance to the next round. Ōarai's next opponent is Chihatan, which adapts a new set of effective tactics that they learned from Ōarai's examples. Chihatan uses hit-and-run attacks and amphibious assaults to launch numerous ambushes on Ōarai, but the latter forces their retreat after luring them into a trap.

Part 3[edit]

After regrouping, Chihatan resumes its hit-and-run attacks on Ōarai. Chihatan's commander Kinuyo Nishi decides to focus on taking out Anglerfish Team to destroy Ōarai's morale. Ōarai tank teams quickly become separated in the confusion and multiple skirmishes take place. Miho decides to turn on her tank's headlight to expose her location and draw all of the Chihatan tanks towards her. As Chihatan celebrates after disabling Anglerfish Team's tank, Turtle Team, Ōarai's flag tank, comes out of hiding and disables Kinuyo's tank, winning the match in the process. In other matches, Kuromorimine defeats Pravda after Erika Itsumi followed Maho Nishizumi's advice and used her tactics that diverge from the school's traditional frontal attack, St. Gloriana easily defeats Anzio, and Keizoku manages to pull an upset victory against Saunders. This leaves Ōarai to face off against Keizoku and Kuromorimine against St. Gloriana in the semifinals. At the outset of the third match, Keizoku uses hit-and-run attacks and guerilla tactics against Ōarai, splitting their forces as a result. As Anglerfish Team protects the Anteater Team, their flag tank, one of the Keizoku's tank team, commanded by the one known as the "White Witch", disables Miho's tank with a single long-range shot.

Critical response[edit]

Ian Wolf of Anime UK News gave Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 1 9 out of 10, praising the production, the comedy with the "humour [that] is basic and based on stereotyping, but... it works", the "pleasing" new naval tank characters, and a "pretty good" opening theme music. In regards to the whole film series, he felt "frustrat[ed]" about how it is taking a long time to be completed due to the "two-year gap between each one" and suggested "mak[ing] a few longer films rather than many short ones".[74]

In his review of Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 2 with a score of 9 out of 10, Wolf praised the action scenes, describing it as "thrilling, with unexpected twists and turns", the music, and the film's "slightly longer" runtime.[75]

The Japanese review and survey firm Filmarks reported that Girls und Panzer das Finale: Part 3 had an approval rating of 4.17 out of 5, based on 284 reviews, placing the film first in their first-day satisfaction ranking.[76] Hatafumi Nobu gave the third film in the series 9 out of 10 for IGN Japan, praising the tank action sequence, the "inductive flow and cliffhanger-style" direction for a 48-minute runtime, and the "exquisitely composed" sound.[77] Wolf gave the film a score of 8 out of 10. He noted the use of mixed CGI during the scene taking place in the jungle and found the characters being animated with CGI "disappointingly clunky". As for the action scenes, Wolf found it in Part 3 "more substantial" as compared to Part 2.[78]
