# List of Girls und Panzer characters

Girls und Panzer is a 2012 Japanese anime television series created by Actas, directed by Tsutomu Mizushima, and produced by Kiyoshi Sugiyama.

Ōarai Prefectural Girls High School (県立大洗女子学園, Kenritsu Ōarai Joshi Gakuen) is the school ship stationed in Ōarai, Ibaraki that previously had a Sensha-dō program abolished years ago, and has just been recently reinstituted.

The school insignia is the two kanji for Ōarai (大洗) superimposed atop one another in stylized form. The school ship of Ōarai Girls High School is based on the IJN Shōkaku-class aircraft carrier. They also use a transport ship that looks quite similar to the Japanese battleship Mikasa.

    Voiced by: Hisako Kanemoto (Japanese); Hilary Haag (English)
    Pravda's commander. Katyusha is a spoiled and arrogant girl who suffers from Napoleon complex due to her diminutive size and thus tends to look down on her opponents, often having Nonna give her a ride on her shoulders so she can be above others.

    Anchovy's personality differs widely between the manga and anime (OVA). In the manga, she is a self-confident, hot-blooded, sometimes even cruel leader, seeing every Sensha-dō battle as personal duel between the leaders. Due to this attitude she even tends to insult enemies before the match, calling them weak and cowardly, and outright accusing Miho of throwing away victory during the last tournament.
    In the anime she instead resembles all the classical stereotypes about the Italians: she is joyful, cheerful, a bit too self-confident, and out of the battle she acts friendly and respectfully with the opponents. She takes Sensha-dō as an opportunity to show that her team's abilities extend beyond their fighting spirit and determination; for this, she is greatly respected and admired by her subordinates, with whom she has an equal relationship, even to the point of their calling her Onēsan (お姉さん). She is shown to be quite caring towards her teammates as well as a capable tactician, and believes leaders have a responsibility to win the match for their team.
