** In their first practice battle, Miho leads her team out of the forest and onto a rickety bridge over a raging river where there is absolutely no cover whatsoever. This somehow results in her team knocking out all the opposing tanks and she is later praised rather than chewed out for this.
*** Actually, when you think about, [[FridgeBrilliance the result makes some sort of sense]]. First, while on the bridge, their tank actually dips below ground level, essentially putting it in hull down position and making it harder to hit. Second, since it's a rope bridge, its elastic nature makes it a huge shock absorber against any hits that might be scored against them. Thirdly, Miho was attempting to break contact, and the rope bridge was the only way across the river.
*** The manga makes clear that their intention was not going ''to'' the bridge. They wanted to go ''through'' it. Just that they failed (spectacularly so) in their first attempt to cross, and had to improvise. The HollywoodTactics here being to keep fighting in such a [[RopeBridge dangerous place]] ([[SeriousBusiness as if it were a real battle)]], instead of yielding in training [[WileECoyoteAndTheRoadrunner when]] [[GravityIsAHarshMistress there's]] [[NotTheFallThatKillsYou real]] [[LiteralCliffhanger danger]] to [[AccordionMan life and limb]]...

The secret is referenced twice more early in Episode 8, when Momo is about to blurt it out for a moment, and the Student Council originally invited Miho to dinner to tell her.
** Played with in OVA 2, which shows the girls going camping in the place that Episode 10[[note]](chronologically set after OVA 2, but aired months before -- which makes it a ContinuityNod, rather than foreshadowing)[[/note]] showed to be the site of the FinalBattle. Small wonder that Episode 11[[note]](aired a week ''after'' OVA 2 was published, making it straight foreshadowing)[[/note]] shows the girls have considerable knowledge of the terrain...
** Episode 8 (showing that the Student Council's offices are located in the main con tower) acts as such for OVA 3's reveal that the school ships are crewed ''wholly'' by students and that the Council is in charge of all of them.
** The girls of Rabbit Team spent the night before the finals watching ''Film/KellysHeroes'', specifically the scene where the Tiger tries to shoot Oddball's tank, but the gun is blocked by a house. [[spoiler:Almost the exact same thing happens when the Maus shows up; it tries to aim at the girls, but its gun is blocked by an apartment building, and it takes time to get itself oriented. Unfortunately, it's not enough time for the girls to escape. They also invoke the same situation on the Elefant by circling around it in cramped alleys, where the Elefant can't turn around to face them. Unlike Oddball, they remember to load live ammo instead of paint.]]
** Careful counting of Kuromorimine's tanks in Episode 10 indicates that they have eighteen tanks out of a supposed maximum of twenty. [[spoiler:The remaining two tanks are the Panzer III and Maus that show up in Episode 11.]]
** In Episode 5, Erika acts arrogant and haughty until Mako snarks out that [[ShameIfSomethingHappened it would be humiliating]] for a school like Kuromorimine to be defeated by so "unworthy" a school as Ooarai, to which Erika can only glare in response. [[spoiler:When Ooarai starts outwitting Kuromorimine, Erika goes into a VillainousBreakdown]].
** in an early demonstration of Miho's "Nobody gets left behind" credo, Miho stops to help Mako in Episode 2, when Mako is having trouble making it to school. Sodoko even tells Miho to leave Mako behind next time. As we see later, that just isn't going to happen.

** In both recap episodes (5.5 and 10.5). In the former, the names of the various girls in &#332;arai's Tankery class are shown, but there are quite a few, so you may have to pause it to see their names. It also shows the tanks they drive and some trivia about them, where pausing will also give you time to read it, as well as to look at the tanks. The latter gives this treatment to the members of the various schools that &#332;arai battles and adds some random trivia on them as well, like their favorite flowers or hobbies, some of which are pretty surprising -- like Katyusha's favorite activity being hanging from a horizontal bar (one assumes to get taller) and Nonna... [[CovertPervert keeping a "Katyusha diary"]].

** [[spoiler:Pravda, the defending champion with sheer firepower and a hostile weather at their side, ends up being defeated by Ooarai, which earlier were on the brink of defeat. To twist the knife further, it was at the hands of the Type 89, a notoriously fragile tank running on nothing but its crew's sheer determination.]]
