Recap / Strike Witches 2 Ep 9 The Bridge To Tomorrow

Go To

Clostermann helps to rebuild Gallia. She discovers a group of children who are unable to go to school because of a bridge that was destroyed in the war. Back at the Adriatic, during beach training Lucchini finds a sunken chest containing a treasure map. Clostermann becomes determined to find the treasure to help fund the Gallian restoration effort and rebuild the bridge.


Tropes in this episode:

  • Beach Episode
  • Embarrassingly Painful Sunburn: Eila and Sanya spend all day sitting on the beach and both end up badly sunburned to the point they can't even put their clothes on.
  • Female Gaze: Yoshika isn't subtle about staring at Lynn's breasts during a conversation on the beach.
  • Inexplicable Treasure Chest: One kicks off the plot of the episode.
  • Informed Ability: Perrine isn't as fluent in Latin as she claims.
  • Kissing Under the Influence: Sakamoto gets drunk and french kisses Minna. Right in front of Hartmann, Yeager, and Barkhorn too.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: The ancient treasure ends up being a herb garden of little monetary worth in the current day. Furthermore, the village rebuilds the bridge on their own with no help from Clostermann anyways, rendering the whole treasure quest pointless.
  • Sigh of Love: Minna does this at the end of the episode towards Sakamoto while sitting on the beach looking longly at the ocean.
  • Temple of Doom: Containing traps and a giant golem that Perrine has to fight.
  • Worthless Treasure Twist: Type 3. The treasure is a herb garden that was valuable centuries ago, but not so much in 1945 with them readily available at every grocery store.
