Girls und Panzer der Film [Blu-ray Review]
Sentai Filmworks brings Girls und Panzer der Film back into print on blu-ray after the original release of this film back in 2017, this time as just a blu-ray rather than the original blu-ray + DVD combo pack, with those scrappy girls of Ooarai Academy and their ridiculous physics-defying tanks returning for the big screen…
