Otto Carius' memoirs, Tigers in the Mud, have been transformed into a manga solely using watercolors. The story centers around Tiger Ace Carius, a brave German tank commander, who single-handedly took down more than 150 tanks during World War II.

He fought in Leningrad and Narva, Estonia before eventually being injured in the summer of 1944. At the beginning of 1945, he became the commander of a Jagdtiger company, but later surrendered to the Americans in May. Miyazaki's manga adaptation focuses on Carius' fight against the Soviet army in Estonia and depicts all characters as pigs.
