That sentence only applies to the first episode. The rest of the series is an overly jingoistic power fantasy where the MC goes around collecting waifus for his harem and the japanese army exports democracy japanese culture.
I watched an episode and said, “Oh, I’m not the target audience, a teenaged Japanese child who is malleable enough to be tricked into joining the JDF.”
Summoning Japan is still kinda power fantasy, but it’s much more focused on the world itself rather than any specific characters. It’s also consistently REALLY good. It’s still running, but there’s quite a bit already out before you have to wait.
Manifest Fantasy is a similar premise to GATE but much better, though is still an early Work In Progress; it too is REALLY good so far (there’s five chapters out so far AFAIK)
Then there’s Summoning America, written by the translators of Summoning Japan. I haven’t read it but I’ve heard good things about it.
Japanese army exporting japanese culture into a fantasy land that’s heavily influenced by their own culture… Sounds like 'murica invading bri’ain or something
Eh? The dragons getting shot with missiles and tanks is episode 17. There are waifus and stuff of course but there is even more fantasy world tropes getting smacked down by modern tech.
