Wait, did Yu die laughing?

Edit
I meant to say Yu, not You

Is the Artist referring to this Monty Python sketch:

I'm surprised it took longer than it did.

The joke itself isn't actual German.

I tried to Google translate it. And the result is amusing.

I'm still waiting for a holy hand grenade joke off this person

Indeed it is The artist specifically said that

元ネタはモンティ・パイソン (This was a Monty Python skit)

It's pleasantly surprising how well some Japanese know of Monty Python! The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch got shout outs on Nico and the wikiwiki page for Warspite.

Where's Yuu in the pic?

Look carefully right below Graf skirt.

There should be a pool for particularly witty references and jokes. Maybe it's out there, somewhere.

Westerners gotta feel super special when Japanese acknowledge their shitty jokes.

So would this be considered friendly fire?

(Speculation) Bismarck must have been sunk before the reference made it the joke came out, so she's not clue why it be funny...or even mean anything.

I still dont get it why its still called the lethal joke in the face of german 'depressiveness'

Not sure if it rises to misleading thumbs, but Warspite's hair really looks like a penis in the thumb.

That's delightful! Google does love them some Easter eggs.

It means it must be really funny if a German will laugh to death from it.

Nah, it's probably a delayed reaction as with the John Cleese SS interrogator.

Or she doesn't understand the joke itself.

Well, in historical hindsight...
it really was.

"THE NAVY'S OUT OF SIGHT! COME TOGETHER WITH THE RN, IT REALLY IS SOMETHING OTHER THAN ELSE!"

She doesn't have to, simply reading two words was enough to land a British translator in hospital. Of course, it could mean that Silver Bell's Bizmarck is illiterate...

....if comments could go into the Quotable Dialogue pool, yours would have been added posthaste.

Later on, The Kriegsmarine created their own joke...

"Der ver zwei peanuts, valking down der Straße, und von vas assaulted...peanut. Ohohohoho!"

Another joke was...

"Warspite has no nose!"

"How does she smell?"

"Awful!"
