Bought the American Blu-Ray, and the video quality is great, but I was saddened that the Katyusha scene isn't present. Is it present in the Japanese Blu-Ray?
Yes. Removed in US versions.

Also, I'm guessing you didn't notice the issue in ep1 where Sentai added black bars to the sides and cropped the other sides

Do the Japanese blurays have English subs coded or am I stuck owning a "Katyusha"-less disc?

In addition to the new trailer it was announced the movie will now be 120 minutes long, up from 90. Also it's opening November 21st so hope you weren't planning on watching it any time soon. BD in 2016 I guess.

It's okay though we all know how GuP rolls, maybe it'll finish sometime in 2016 after a few filler movies.

I don't think it was confirmed, but Garupan is a total cash cow (it single-handedly jumpstarted the tourism industry in Oorai) so if we all keep buying overpriced merch they'll keep expanding the series. Probably.

I've spent way more on GuP physical goods than any other series. You can't just get ONE of those figmas, that's not a full tank crew! Plus the Pit-Road non-scales are adorable looking.

Just watched the Anzio OVA. I love the carefree attitude of the school, and seeing the L3/35s running about as well as the P40s. While I love the Semovente 75/18s, I'm a little disappointed that they were the only representatives of the Fiat M13/40 family. Also, why didn't any of the L3s have the Solothurn 20mm rifle? It'd seem like the smart thing to do in a tank battle sport, and considering their force seems to be themed around Italy in North Africa, it'd make sense to have at least one or two.

Could totally see a GuP series focusing on Anzio that was about burning spirit and passion overcoming all obstacles.

What's funny is that even though the bulk of Anzio's forces are useless because they're equipped with machine guns, they still manged to beat the French school

The Semovente 75/18 still has quite the gun on it. Maybe Anzio's Solothurn equiped L3s were damaged in the fight with the French school and that's why they weren't present?
