So, prior to this I’m not usually interested in military theme series, but then I give Tanya a watch, and I’m hooked ! I’ve also watched the movie.

After that, I remember 86 and also finish those. The last one I’ve finished was Nippon Sangoku, and now I want more like these. I think it’s related, but I also throw Sentenced to be a Hero having same vibe, though it’s more focus on individual and has much more fantasy flavor setting-wise.

I don’t really care about the interpersonal between the character, I think I just enjoy the campaign/battle theater and the logistic side of the war.

Please throw me some of yours recs ! Thanks

Edit: Still reading the recs you guys give, thanks a lot. But for some more context I’ve watched most of Gundam entries so it’s already on my radar.

    Both of my suggestions have warfare mixed with fantasy, but you could try them to see if they scratch your itch.

    Drifters: famous warriors get isekai’d to a fantasy war and start waging a war on behalf of the subjugated elf population.

    Gate: a portal opens up in Tokyo and fantasy creatures try to invade Japan, only to find themselves against a modern day army.

    Bonus suggestion: Full Metal Panic. Mecha battles against terrorist organisations. The first season is a mix of serious and funny, following ones are more serious in tone. FMP Fumoffu is a spinoff with just the funny stuff. One of my all time favorites.

      I’ve watched FMP but not the other two and just to make sure, is this the one you mean :

      Gate

      Drifters

      I’ll go check both out, iirc there a new Gate coming out, but it’s a new timeline of something not related to this one, is that right or am I thinking of a different series?

      Thank you for the suggestion !
