"So, Strike Witches"
 
   I discovered this series was lurking in the catalogue available via the Funimation streaming service and decided to give it a watch. A half dozen episodes in and I've discovered:

- None of the canon pairings are even remotely subtle about their feelings, and neither is Perrine.

- Miyafuji is a friendship determinator. Not even aggressive really, just relentless.

- Some of the dub voices surprised me. Mostly because in my head I cast most of them with appropriate accents for their nationalities, rather than mostly generic American (and definitely didn't cast Shirley as borderline valley girl.)

- The framing and camera angles in some scenes has to have been done by some former hentai animators.

- The Funimation website streaming app is toxic hot garbage. I'm convinced some disgruntled coders did this on purpose, it's too terrible to be an accident.

Overall, so far there's some surprisingly good character moments hiding behind Mount Fanservice, even if it is a show I can't bring myself to watch when anyone else in the house is in the same room. If anyone else here is on the fence, give it a try, just be sure to have privacy and stick past the first few episodes to get acclimated.
