If you know what I mean, you played too much WoT, too.
*BROFIST*
Even until now, I still keep the freakin' tank despite the devs removing that ZOMGWTFSLOWMOVING schmalturm turret and the 7.5 that was supposed to be a deterrent against the turtle KV-1.
btw did the girls ACTUALLY get upped to that 7.5 in the anime? that Pz IV of theirs with that snub cannon against units liek the M3 Lee, Stuart or that why-esque StuG III is still awkard to look at.

No, not in the anime, but apparently recent manga scans indicate they finally upgraded to the L/43

I loved that tank with that gun
I had to sell it and move my awesomely trained crew to a VK3002DB since they're going to do a new German Medium line. TOO BAD THEY'RE GOING TO NERF IT TOO LIKE EVERY OTHER GERMAN TANK AMIRITE?
This maybe too late already but it seems that they will have their gun upped after ep 7, they found the gun in ep 7 (the gun was used as a clothe pole LOL)

I thought they were switching to a completely different tank

Miho said they could set up another team, so they might do that, and expand their retinue to six tanks.
That being said, they should get some experience, especially the gunners, instead of another team. Firing while moving, or even just knowing where to fire on an enemy (front armor too thick? aim for the tracks or the bottom slope!) goes a long way.

Well, that's my guess when I see the ED in the 7th ep, they were riding a pzIV with the upgraded gun, not the Tiger. And yes, I did notice that they found a Tiger, but the only clear parts is the turret and the gun, the hull wasn't completely visible so I can't say for sure. If I have to guess further, the Tiger may needs more time to be fixed (if the entire tank was there) or its hull is still missing (If what I saw in the 7th ep were just the turret and the gun) With that said though, I certainly want to see Miho commanding a Tiger with her Ooarai crew!
P/S: I just check this link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girls_und_Panzer In the episode list they claim that what they found was the Tiger, not just a part of it, if that is true then the Tiger need more time to be fixed. Or maybe that wasn't the Tiger as all, we will see in the next episodes.....
Late-spoilers, but they do indeed get a long-barrel for their Panzer IV, and the Tiger that they get is actually a Tiger Porsche, a model that was rejected by German high command due to its numerous mechanical flaws.
