A most appropriate choice, since the Corvette (car) is named after the corvette (a small warship). And since the name corvette was first used by the French navy, it makes the last panel somewhat ironic.
And holy crap, Atlanta used the German railway cannon (one of the largest bore artillery pieces ever made)?! That could have brought down the whole mountain. She doesn't pull any punches.
It looks like Teste is in pervy-molester mode instead of bat-sh*t Zuiun cultist mode... She isn't wearing green at the moment. Can't say that I blame her though, she makes a good point. ;)
Scheiße, she (looks like just) killed the italians.
Perhaps not. Looking again at this, it may actually be Teste getting out of the car in the first panel - the last panel does show her with some damage. If that's the case, is this actually the Italians' car at all?
Atlanta seem almost too much of a mary sue at being a dorm manager.
She's playing by a different set of rules. Her lack of genre savviness will cause things to escalate and spiral out of control. The dorms are *supposed* to be goofy and off the wall. If she doesn't start playing nice, the other girls will rebel in earnest, and no one will be happy.

To be fair, she's also seen what happens when you let the Foreign Fleet wackiness step all over you. Granted, she only saw the breaking point after several years, but she was still witness to it.
Still, having seen this theme a number of times --- apparently used railway lines under water, which seems quite unsafe --- I can't help wondering what it represents...

My take on this artistic trend is all the abandoned local lines across the country. A symptom of "Demographic transition" as it is called which has hit Japan especially hard the past decade or so. Schools closing due to lack of students, towns dying, abandoned stations, and abandoned train lines. Not to mention dialects being lost to posterity.
