When he was a kid he specialised in front crawl, but as Haru only swims free tm Rin took the butterfly for the medley and has clearly just stuck with it.

I wonder how the various superstitions about the Year 2000 played exactly in 80's and 90's pop culture...

I ask that because having grown in it, I don't have much perspective on the issue.

Yeah, by the way : with the introduction of Japanese vehicles into the game, there is apparently going to be an (official) "Girls und Panzer" voicepack for the tank crews. I don't know if it's going to be restricted to only the Japanese vehicles or if all nationalities will be able to have it.

GG used to be pretty bad about putting in problematic shit in their translations (they play fast and loose in general with translations to avoid the shitty near-literal stuff a lot of fansubbers do) but they seemed to have gotten past that

Titan in general is pretty good about being genderblind as a show and so having shit like this put in just upsets me

Yeah, having followed your tumblr a bit, I got what was upsetting you there.

Still, is that a commonplace occurence with their work, or just the kind of things that occur here and there ,

Because I watched Girls Und panzer through Horrible Subs, and I was pretty pissed when I learned that I missed whole segments of episodes that way (the katyusha song segment with the russian-themed school at least)
