Yes, I should be sleeping

affrecaA last attempt tomorrow morning. Plan is to get up early, and some more hacking at Lindley. The lab machines handle bigger datasets than my little lappy.
801st Airbats
Another 6 episode OVA I bought back when I had money. I bought it for no good reason. There are no giant robots, no alternate worlds. There aren't even any students - middle school, high school or college. Just JASDF. Yep, they acknowledge it in the opening credits.
It is a harem comedy, which isn't my favorite for obvious reasons. Our main character is a private in the JASDF, recently assigned to the 801st. Which also includes 4 female pilots and a clueless commander. Two of the pilots are in love with him, and half the plot is the trouble the 801st gets into because of it. The other two pilots are a complete ditzhead and a good gambler. Oh, and there is the obligatory cute animal - a bat in this case.
Artwork is so-so. Plots are the expected tropes. Of the six episodes, 1 is a failed date leading to illness, one is a ghost at an inn, and another is an eating contest.
Artwork is so-so. Dubbing was OK, with the ditz's fake southern accent being the most annoying. I don't know enough about flying to judge how realistic it is, but I can say it isn't realistic about military life. Even with the little I saw of JMSDF life.
