Saga of Tanya the Evil - Season 1 - Episode 7

The Empire is launching a seemingly foolish attack on the Entente Alliance in the middle of winter. They lack the supplies to successfully invade. Tanya realizes that this attack is a feint intended to distract from a fjord landing mission. Sure enough, she is sent to lead the invasion of the fjords, and silence 20 cannon emplacements in time for the fleet to land and the Imperial forces to disembark.

Tanya's new battalion is off the ground and running, and it's time for them to do their first mission: fight back a massive invasion by the Dakian Dukedom to the southeast. The enemy army numbers in the hundreds of thousands, but they've brought no air units at all, which makes them easy pickings for Tanya's highly trained force. After wiping out the enemy army, she heads straight for the enemy capital and launches an attack there.

#6 - The Impact

Punch Line - Season 1 - Episode 10

On the morning of December 28, Yūta finds he is too late to stop Meika hacking into the sattelite just as Guriko planned, giving Qmay the ability to launch missiles at the meteor to steer it towards Earth. Deeming the mission to save mankind to be a failura, Chiranosuke has Yūta make preparations for his next self. The next day on December 29, the day where Ito was originally scheduled to die, Yūta and Mikatan receive a text calling them to the shrine, where they come face to face with Guriko, who had taken Ito hostage to lure them out. Returning Ito to them, Guriko states that the only way Yūta and Mikatan can survive the meteor crash is if they become Ws using Muhi's regeneration ability before taking her leave. Just as Yūta is at the brink of giving up altogether, he thinks of his friends and becomes determined to protect them, asking Meika for her help in saving humanity.
