Synopsis

Miho Nishizumi, a new transfer student to Ooarai All-Girls High School, would like nothing more than to enjoy a peaceful, stress-free school life. Unfortunately, her new school just revived its tankery program (Senshadou; manipulation of tanks) and enlists Miho to put together a team so that they may compete in a national tournament.
As Miho struggles to overcome her turbulent past with tanks, she must first learn to tread lightly with her eccentric companions. Can Miho possibly plow through the challenges and master the art of tankery, or will she get left behind in the dust?

As with most of manga that are adaptations of anime and not the other way around, I would suggest watching the anime first. And while I liked the anime more, this was still a nice read.
If you followed my advice of watching the anime first, I guess I don't have to talk much about the story which is practically the same but more condensed. As expected of anime-adapting manga. What's more important to note here is the art. Some of the characters sometimes look a bit weird and off-model, but it's okay most of the time. The illustrations of the tanks are of course great and detailed with no lazy half-assed drawings.
What surprised me the most is that the manga managed to convey the excitement of the battles well. Now, it might of course be because it summoned back from my memory what I felt when watching the anime, but a lot of manga adaptations can't do even that and they left you unsatisfied even if you liked the original anime.
Overall, it's a nice read if you're a fan of Girls und Panzer and can be handy if you've seen the series some time ago and want to refresh your memory before watching the new movies.

What on goddess Athena have I just read?!
Don't get me wrong, I obviously wasn't expecting a masterpiece, being fully aware I step into a story about cute highschool girls driving tanks. Thought I will have well, cute girls being cute while doing their best in military school.
Oh how wrong I was!
The story is absolutely surreal but in a bad meaning of this. Author treats their story super seriously and yet tries to convince readers that there's a school with tank riding club activities, that it runs real battles (with explosions and such) during real (sic!) national tournament. And everything is goddamit tense. You can't win a battle? Lmao, you gonna get disinherited and your school will be closed because idiots in ministry realised that ineed a club activity with tanks is expensive..
After few chapters of pure disappointment I tried to treat it as kind of sport manga parody but gave up very soon. All cliches were over-the-top, characters lacked any development, personality or even distinctive traits. I kept catching myself on forgetting names of very few main characters and mistaking them for background ones. Plot? If you have seen any sport story, you will pretty much figure out how things will go. I'm 100% honest, low quality football cartoons my lil sis watches are more creative than this - and 'masterpieces' like Supa Strikas aren't levels hard to surpass.
I appreciate tho one of girls was named Saori. Everytime someone screamed Saori-san I had hilarious Saint Seiya flashbacks.

    Chapter 1 - Ore no Jinsei

    [At a certain Japanese Household]

    'Onii-chan let's play!' a soft and caring voice called out from behind.

    'Onii-sama hurry up!' yet another voice called out but this time it was firm but still caring.

    'Alright what should we play?'

    'Let's ride a tank!' Both of them replied with the cutest smiles.

    'Sounds like a great plan! Let's go!' grabbed them both by their hands.

    'Don't be long now dinner is almost ready!'another voice called and this time it was loud and strict and yet you could feel the love and worry underneath the words.

    'Of Course Okaa-chan! Don't worry I'll take care of them' the boy said with the biggest smile on my face.

    (As the three of us ran to the yard to play suddenly I felt the two hands I was holding disappear.)

    'Huh?!'he looked behind and no one was there

    'Hey where did you guys go?!' he shouted

    Nobody replied and he started breathing heavily.

    'Please don't leave me alone! Anyone!?' I shouted some more.

    (He was scared and knelt on the ground then heard laughter from people he doesn't know. It grew louder and louder as he covered his ears and closed his eyes.)

    'HAHAHA' 'Look at him' 'What an abomination' 'This is unacceptable'

    'Stop laughing at me!' he shouted

    (Then He blinked, and blinked and blinked and saw a familiar ceiling.)

    'It doesn't make any sense to me at all why I keep having that same dream.'

    (I sat down on my bed and looked at the clock only to see I had 30 mins left before school started.)

    (As he stared at it for about 5 seconds) 'Oh shit'

    'I'm gonna be laaaaate!'

    (Within 10 minutes he prepared himself to go to school.)

    'WHY THE HELL DO YOU NEED TO SHOUT EARLY IN THE MORNING!?'

    (Then my father yelled at me as well and kicked me in the butt.)

    'WHY THE HELL DO YOU NEED TO KICK ME FOR KUSO-JIJI!'

    (This is my father or Kuso-jiji as I call him. He has been taking care of me for as long as I can remember. He may be a kuso-jiji but I still love him!)

    'YOU KNOW WHY KUSO-GAKI! NOW HURRY UP AND GO TO SCHOOL!'

    'What do you think I'm doing right now huh?!'

    'Being late I presume?'
