Jajka (ヤイカ, Yaika) is the overall commander of Bonple High School's senshado and Tankathlon team. She's the main antagonist of the manga Girls und Panzer: Ribbon Warrior.
Profile[]
Jajka is the overall commander from Bonple High School. She operates a Polish 7TPjw. She is also known by the title of Grandmaster or the Queen of Tankathlon.
Appearance[]
Jajka is a medium-sized girl with long blonde hair and green eyes. She wears her blonde hair in a long braid styled as a swirled bun. Jajka is often seen wearing the Bonple High School senshado uniform (with ornaments reflecting her rank) and is sometimes seen with the school uniform. She's also seen (only in mental representations of herself) dressed as a Winged Hussar.
Personality[]
She is first seen as a calm and charming lady although being a little arrogant. She later turns out to be condescending, sour, eager for revenge (especially since their humiliating defeat against Pravda), and extremely ruthless. She appears to be highly skilled as she manages to defeat a team that fielded more than thirty tanks (not without suffuring losses) with eight tanks and two tankettes; at the same time, however, her resounding success makes her giddy and overconfident. According to Uzska, she also wears a lot of makeup due to insecurities about her face. However, Jajka does have a kind side to her, shown during a training match with Tategoto High School (a match Yukari Akiyama was watching during her one of her infiltrations) where she is seen being supportive of Aung by telling her that she is improving and that her first victory is close.
Background[]
Little is known about Jajka before Ribbon Warrior except that she commands virtually everything related to tanks in Bonple; that she suffered an humiliating defeat facing Pravda during the first round of the 63rd National High School Senshado Tournament, leaving her with a great deal of bitterness from this defeat and an immeasurable hatred toward Pravda; and that she managed to build a name for herself in Tankathlon by winning the Tankathlon last season tournament, earning herself the nickname "Queen of Tankathlon." She holds Tankathlon in a much higher regard than Sensha-do.
She joins the actual Tankathlon season after learning that Anzio would be a part of it. She later interrupts a match between Centipede Team and Anzio, judging it to be weak and uninteresting with the vehicles involved. After Pepperoni fails to attack Jajka's tank, she taunts everyone about the lawless nature of Tankathlon.
The rookie Tategoto, allied with Anzio, is annihilated by Bonple due to Tategoto's inexperience and Anzio's lack of firepower and awareness. Jajka is seen on Bonple's carrier preparing żur to celebrate their next match against Pravda (under the name of Katyusha's Volunteer Army), which gives her an opportunity for revenge.
She is seen violently taunting Katyusha before the beginning of the match. She fields eight 7TPjw light tanks and two TKS 20mm tankettes during the match against sixteen T-70 light tanks. Against Katyusha's Volunteer Army, she uses mostly ambush tactics and traps. However, this is not enough, and her team suffers some losses. Things are looking rough for Bonple when Nina calls in a second echelon of sixteen tanks to perform a double envelopment. Faced with an even more severe numerical disparity, Jajka and three other tanks camouflage themselves in the snow, using Uzska's tank as bait to lure the main force away from the flag tank. Once the tanks pass by, she and her remaining tanks charge Nina's tank and shoot her down, winning the match. After the match, Jajka bursts out laughing, giddy with success, and challenges anyone to defeat her in Tankathlon.
Trivia[]
- Jajka means Eggs in Polish.
- Jajka's distinctive uniform is based off the gala-dress uniforms of the Polish Podhale Rifles Brigade.
- During the charge and after taking down Nina's tank, she's represented charging and partially dressed like a Winged Hussar. Polish Calvary were called Winged Hussars during the 16th and 18th century because of their feathered wings on the back of their armour. The Winged Hussars were also an inspiration for the badge of the Polish Army's 1st Armoured Division.
- Just before their tankathlon match against Pravda she is seen cooking żur (or żurek). Which is a Polish-Belarusian soup made of soured rye flour and meat. Like represented in the manga the soup can be served in a bowl made of bread.
- So far Jajka is the only character to almost get hit by a shell in a match.
