I was watching episodes last night with this post open, and I think I prefer the EPU interpretation of things. One nitpick: Sakamoto's entry says nothing about her horrendous, disturbing cackle of a laugh. That should be classified as a treaty violation. :)

Due primarily to the Chief's endorsement, I've been giving Strike Witches another try, and while I don't find it so engrossing that I'll be marathoning it, it's fun enough (and entertaining enough) past the first episode that I'll definitely finish it.

Funimation's site and Hulu both have the English dub of the first season available. Funimation's site requires registration, but it's free (and still streamed from Hulu, so There Be Ads). I don't know how different the movie is from the series.
