Fun fact: back blast can kill or seriously injure. And considering the knife-ears had little to no armor, I assume it was a lethal or near lethal injury.
Due to the desperation and lack of time to deal with the dragon, those dark elves had only received limited training once which was basically "heres how you fire this weapon". No real practice or sufficient training for it to soak in or become instinct, let alone practical experience. It was natural for them to panic or make mistakes when the situation called for them to hit the ground at the speed of sound. Whats sadder is they were also the only surviving young people left of the clan, children who had just grown up while the dragon was terrorizing them and killed all the warriors and combat-capable adults. All but one died fighting a titan which had terrorized them and others for decades with untold suffering.

Only found out about this series today, and I love the attention to detail shown by the animators. Barrels have rifling, the pistol slides are clearly SIGs, Glocks, or Makarov-style (depending on the modern force), not to mention the uniforms and gear in close ups.
I loved the details as well, even the TOW missiles have visible wires attached to them. Though all this makes me wonder how they managed to fuck up basic lingo like “Fox-2” and “Fox-3”
The manga and anime are both adaptations of a light novel series. There likely won't be more of the anime, because it was basically released as advertisement for the sequels to the light novels. This is about 80% of anime today; advertisements for books, never intended to tell the full story.
Dushess A shaped charge (if penetration occurs successfully) send a super-heated molten metal jet through the armor at hypesonic speed, modern HEAT projectiles can penetrate a whole meter of rolled homogeneous armor (very hard rolled steel) and you are bullshiting yourself if you believe that fat worm with wings has the equivalent of 1 meter of steel of protection in its scales.
Duchness Not exactly. A hit with HEAT round is like equivalent to pouring molten metal into target's internal space (for Fire Dragon's case, it's internal organs and skeleton systems). AP is more like launching a very sharp rock with high velocity that it penetrates the armor, such as Lelei's attack with swords

Yeah that dude was fucking around getting within knife-fighting distance of the dragon, the guns can fire it from a long range and the missiles from a huge distance away.
it isnt the fire thats doing the damage its the pressure wave and shrapnel thats doing the damage. besides their are only a few types of dragons that are resistant, immune or healed by fire
Michael USS Wisconsin No they are not. This is a common misconception, air-to-air missiles cannot fire at ground targets, only the most modern weapons like the Aim-9X can do this. Sidewinders use a infrared seeker-head that homes in on a heat signature. So unless the dragon is giving a large enough heat signature an air to air missile won’t track it’s location. But if the phantom fired an AIM-9J at the dragon midair the missile would definitely injure it fatally and blow off its wing, 7 kg’s of explosives is not nice even to a large dragon like that. Although the Panzerfaust 3 rocket launchers showed in another scene would definitely penetrate the dragon’s relatively weak scales with it’s shaped charge warhead, and kill the beast if hit in a good location. (Relatively week compared to the almost 1000 millimeters of steel that the Panzerfaust 3 can penetrate.)
The thing I liked about the fight scenes with the Fire Dragons was how it kinda played omage to Godzilla films. The lone trumpet (Or trombone, IDK) playing as the Dragon appeared. The forces aimlessly trying to fight this beast with conventional weapons. One could clearly see resemblance.

Yes the pressure wave in a mostly enclosed space would have magnified the blast. The explosive pressure would rupture internal organs if not directly damaging the outside of the body.
Remember, *The JDF is not a Superpower. They only possess defensive capabilities and enough Offensive capabilities to stage a proper Defence of their Nation. Imagine a proper military like the Royal Military, US Military, and Russian Military*
...Imagine the aces of the Ace Combat Series fighting the Dragons... They'd probably have terrifying face splitting grins at having to test their "Fangs" on an _Actual_ Dragon.
I love how Laehle learns so quick, stab the fuck out of the Dragon with metal parts, and then shock it with powerful lightning magic that'd set off the explosives (which likely triggered the blasting caps triggering the primary explosives)
F-4s FTW! Dinosaur vs dragon! :P I've always had a soft spot for the Phantom even if it does look like someone at McDonnell slammed the hanger door shut on it before it was all the way out. Maybe the blueprints were creased or something. :D
The F-4 was a flying block of design compromises. The folded wingtips exist to fix flight instabilities. Heck, the original build didn't even include a gun because according to the big thinkers in the Air Force, "Missiles will make guns useless". Then missiles failed more than playing card houses in a mild breeze...
@1tiercel If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, then you may be overdue for a visit to the optometrist. :D The F-4 was many things, but I'm not sure "beautiful" was a concept that made the cut :D
Nah they're on par with tuka family and friends in her village that got attack first by the fire dragon then 1/4 of the cocoda villagers in its second attack.
I hope they are remembered as legends for killing a titan that had terrorized them and so many other clans, tribes, towns, cities and nations for so long. they were basically medieval teens who just got barely old enough with like a day of training with a modern weapon before being sent into a front line.
when I read the manga, I was surprised how the tame and less graphic it became in its transition to anime, especially the POW scene in the first attack on Italica.
I love how only like the final bosses of the Special Region are capable of being even a vague threat to the JSDF. Only infantry with small arms are actually threatened. Once the air cover comes, those dragons are done.
5:10 If you thought Modern technology is scary in a Magical/Medieval setting imagine combining both. Figure out a way to funnel that magic into multiple firearms and increase the outgoing speed of each bullet, dealing more damage. Aid a Sniper by using wind magic so that he doesn't really have to take wind into account.
I love how this anime depicts a modern day Japan using Old outdated American tech like the F-4 phantom from 1958. All the while making the Americans look like bad guys.
Being a demigod wouldn't be so fun if, say, a 20mm cannon turned you into chunky salsa. Of course, they'd probably still magic back together. But damn would it be satisfying if Rory's nemesis went all humpty dumpty.
Dragon vs jet scene Me : Dragon can chase those jets? Really? Couldn't they just use the afterb- Jet : *Uses afterburner and out fly the dragon* Me : I'll take that back. Proceed.
Fun Fact: The fully grown flame dragon is said to be as durable as a 4th generation tank while only slightly more agile and faster than a modern helicopter.
Honestly the Air Support scene after trying to RPG the Dragon killed that fight scene for me. You just spent most of an episode fighting a monster that heavy ordnance could have easily dealt with and all it did was convey the whole "Underpowered native" bullshit.
Wait the planes said Fox 2 for rear aspect missiles in a head-on lock (which would be doppler radar, the EJ Kai Phantom has, which doesnt work on slow moving targets), and Fox 3 when going guns (Fox 3 is all-aspect missiles, Fox 4 is guns).

@@FlamieDoc Ok ok. I know. I was just saying that the sword that she was hurling was going very fast.
Probably not using the right type of ammunition. If you're firing HEI rounds, what's hitting the dragon's skin is lots of tiny fragments. Effective against aircraft, not so much against heavy armor.
In manga Lelei shredded the Dragon with those swords ripping its wings apart. That underground blast was basically a mercy killing.
@@easygamer4260 To be fair, she did not just threw some swords on Dragon, combining the Earth science and her magic, she threw supersonic swords at dragon. Which is the same as bullet, but hundreds times more energy behind it.
@@easygamer4260
Sword: Big and was going at speed of bullet
Bullet: Not as big as sword. Still going same speed.

My man I'm pretty sure they were already using jets that had 20mm Autocannon and yet that still couldn't pierce it
@@jaredjosephsongheng372 the 20mm could pierce and damage it. It's an anime only thing that "20mm can't damage it"

Yanagida be like:
So she stabbed me in the side and
I shot her around 4 times,
And that’s how I met your mother kids.
Imagine being one of the few people to fight dragons, nonetheless, engage one in aerial combat.
The C4 charges in the cave/inert volcano wouldv'e killed everyone inside.
Yes the pressure wave in a mostly enclosed space would have magnified the blast. The explosive pressure would rupture internal organs if not directly damaging the outside of the body.
@@zactionmedia2591 Yeah, but you forgot about the MC + Harem Plot Armor, it's pretty damn durable stuff!
Well except for protagonists who's injuries were being taken by Rory
Are C4 charges enough to obliterate a fire dragon in real life?
@@waterspray5743 depends on how much you use
Remember! Reload is faster than saying "Damn it" 6 times
I know right.
He even kept trying to shoot as well.
I always loved the level of freedom portrayed in the whole anime! :D

1:10...And that kids, is how I met your mother.
Watching this and all I can think is, "Forget back blast. Blow up your friends...and enemies at the same time."
Remember, *The JDF is not a Superpower. They only possess defensive capabilities and enough Offensive capabilities to stage a proper Defence of their Nation. Imagine a proper military like the Royal Military, US Military, and Russian Military*
...Imagine the aces of the Ace Combat Series fighting the Dragons...
They'd probably have terrifying face splitting grins at having to test their "Fangs" on an _Actual_ Dragon.
anyone catch the Godzilla theme when the dragon landed at 2:17.
I love how Laehle learns so quick, stab the fuck out of the Dragon with metal parts, and then shock it with powerful lightning magic that'd set off the explosives (which likely triggered the blasting caps triggering the primary explosives)
Tuka really used final flash 5:56
Roxy's axe must have a Mjolnir - like enchantment on it. She can lift it, no one else can, but someone can lift her with her holding it.

F-4s FTW! Dinosaur vs dragon! :P I've always had a soft spot for the Phantom even if it does look like someone at McDonnell slammed the hanger door shut on it before it was all the way out. Maybe the blueprints were creased or something. :D
Dragons vs flying bricks.
@@Nighthawke70 That's for Warthog tbh.
The F-4 was a flying block of design compromises. The folded wingtips exist to fix flight instabilities.
Heck, the original build didn't even include a gun because according to the big thinkers in the Air Force, "Missiles will make guns useless".
Then missiles failed more than playing card houses in a mild breeze...
@1tiercel If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, then you may be overdue for a visit to the optometrist. :D The F-4 was many things, but I'm not sure "beautiful" was a concept that made the cut :D

I love the subtle little Godzilla Jingle that plays when the dragon lands.
I think those dark elfes had a worst death than other characters in this anime
Nah they're on par with tuka family and friends in her village that got attack first by the fire dragon then 1/4 of the cocoda villagers in its second attack.
I hope they are remembered as legends for killing a titan that had terrorized them and so many other clans, tribes, towns, cities and nations for so long. they were basically medieval teens who just got barely old enough with like a day of training with a modern weapon before being sent into a front line.

Captain Price: Percsion Airstrike Incoming!
I think I know exactly why this got recommended to me
"Ramirez, take out that dragon with those Stinger and Javelin missiles don't use the AT 4, that's for Burger Town later"
when I read the manga, I was surprised how the tame and less graphic it became in its transition to anime, especially the POW scene in the first attack on Italica.
"Dragon in this direction"
"Understood, removing that direction"
Imagine if it was the Imperial Japanese Army instead of the JSDF...
That would be brutal.
The A10 have a message tho that dragon!
BRRRTTTTTTTTTT...
*Dragon gets a rocket to the arm*
*Loses arm*
*Few episodes later*
*Gets hit with multiple rockets to the face*
*No damage*
Dragon: "HA! Your stupid rockets can't hurt me no more! I level up muh resistance and health off screen!"
@@sillybob9689 JSDF pilot: haha can you survive these" drops 3 2000 laser guided bombs.
Those were not fully armed so The shape charge (that actually does penetration ;) ) didnt work so it was just small explosive and some shrapnal
I love how only like the final bosses of the Special Region are capable of being even a vague threat to the JSDF. Only infantry with small arms are actually threatened. Once the air cover comes, those dragons are done.
5:10
If you thought Modern technology is scary in a Magical/Medieval setting imagine combining both.
Figure out a way to funnel that magic into multiple firearms and increase the outgoing speed of each bullet, dealing more damage.
Aid a Sniper by using wind magic so that he doesn't really have to take wind into account.
I think the dark elf girl did use gun in manga, didn’t read it so finger cross
Truly spectacular work seeing it live in action astounding stunning perfection.
poor guy got hit by the worst thing imaginable

I love how this anime depicts a modern day Japan using Old outdated American tech like the F-4 phantom from 1958. All the while making the Americans look like bad guys.

Being a demigod wouldn't be so fun if, say, a 20mm cannon turned you into chunky salsa. Of course, they'd probably still magic back together. But damn would it be satisfying if Rory's nemesis went all humpty dumpty.

The fully grown flame dragon is said to be as durable as a 4th generation tank while only slightly more agile and faster than a modern helicopter.

Honestly the Air Support scene after trying to RPG the Dragon killed that fight scene for me. You just spent most of an episode fighting a monster that heavy ordnance could have easily dealt with and all it did was convey the whole "Underpowered native" bullshit.

Wait the planes said Fox 2 for rear aspect missiles in a head-on lock (which would be doppler radar, the EJ Kai Phantom has, which doesnt work on slow moving targets), and Fox 3 when going guns (Fox 3 is all-aspect missiles, Fox 4 is guns).
