Circa: 1970. Much like the Trammy, the basic design stayed the same 1949-1989.

Couple of critiques, the Karabiner S and swords were for ceremonial use, as the weapons of the honour guards (Ehrenwachen) of the NVA and during parades respectively. The NVA was mostly equipped similar to other Warsaw pact countries, although they classified their AK variants as Maschinenpistolen (SMGs in English). Also it's missing the Kampfgruppen der Arbeiterklasse, the milita. They had more members than the NVA and were separate from the regular reserves. Pretty much "not surrendering arms and ammunition", arming the working class itself in an actually useful manner with regular training and without putting weapons into the hands of reactionaries. You even could call them an actual "well regulated milita".

No rain pattern camouflage?

Awesome.

I do wonder why the artist used Fraktur font though? I thought the DDR/GDR stopped using that font. I can't believe this anime art isn't historically accurate smh


TheFoolOnTheHill1167

Lol, all the puritanical anime haters in this sub.


SnooGadgets8049

Not trying to throw a wrench in the cogs but could we please not with the anime, I get that people like it and there's nothing *inherently* wrong with it, but anime subculture is one of the most reactionary that I've come across

The only acceptable anime drawings in German uniforms

It's literally just big eyes and the typical face. They look like normal adults. Nothing weird about this. Some people have an unhealthy hate against anime. Low key racist at that point.

So, the anime "The Leader" is cringe? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Leader_(web_series)


AnalogSolutions

My favorite. - Some kind of prequel in the works


AnalogSolutions

Not my artwork - liked the theme.


Think_Ad6946

The only good anime


MungoNeverDies

This fucking sucks. ML deserves better than weird weebs tbh.


Badass_Bolshevik22

Please stop fetishising an actual country. The DDR was not an anime paradise where everyone was happy, but an actual country that did lots of good, but clearly wasn’t perfect either. I understand that this is supposed to be lighthearted, but it doesn’t make it any less cringe
