This series was really good and funny. Had a slight resemblance to Full Metal Alchemist, but maybe because both are comedies and relating to the military.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spoilers<\/strong>: (<a href=\"javascript:toggle('pumpkinscissors');\" id=\"pumpkinscissorsTog\">Show<\/a>)<\/p>\n<blockquote id=\"pumpkinscissors\" style=\"display:none\"><p>The overall story is about Section III, a war relief group that is trying to help people continue on with their lives after the war and stop war aggravators. <\/p>\n<p>They introduce Oland who used to be part of Team 901-ATT (Anti Tank Trooper). His history is still fishy, but we learnt there were more than one group of &#8220;special&#8221; people. They were call the &#8220;Invisible 9s&#8221; which included chemical warfare and flame throwers. Anyway, Oland is trying to cope with this new peaceful era and tries his best to make the world a better place.<\/p>\n<p>Hunks is the head of Section III, but really Alice is like the boss. She&#8217;s currently the successor of one of the 13 appointed families (families which contributed a lot the war and the creation of this country). She&#8217;s basically quite idealistic in what she hopes to accomplish with these war relief efforts.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s really 2 story lines going on. On one hand, we&#8217;re trying to figure Oland&#8217;s past and the other Invisible 9s. Apparently the university that was conducting the research is still research Oland and he doesn&#8217;t seem to mind.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, we have the Silver Wheel, a organization similar to the Illuminati we always hear about or the Soldats for Noir, and underground group, but very powerful. We&#8217;re not too sure what their purpose is, but they&#8217;ve been improving weaponry and distributing it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I can&#8217;t wait for Season 2.<\/p>\n<p>Any way, episode 18 contained a bunch of hilarious scenes with Stekkins, the little Sergeant Major girl. There are 2 versions of each video (large: 640&#215;480 and small: 320&#215;240), displayed respectively in that order.<\/p>\n<p>Welp, I learnt a new Japanese phrase today: \u4e00\u4eba\u4e0a\u624b (hitori jouzu) which translates to literally &#8220;alone skillful&#8221;. However, according to the captions, it&#8217;s slang for masturbation. Stekkins goes and calls Machs the one-man machine! In fact, he&#8217;s the best one-man machine in the Empire. However, everyone hears it as he&#8217;s the number one masturbator in the empire.
