What always puzzled me: How exactly did she pull all the pins?

Maybe the uniform has a special function where she pulls a tab or hook connected to a wire that pulls the pins on all the grenade whenever she curtsies? It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to think Roberta would go the extra mile for theatrics.

    It's pretty simple to assume but it can only work in anime for logic.
    She had all those M4s pins threaded into her petticoat and with a simple jossle she dropped all of them.
    Only way it can work in anime is that none of them were pulled preemptivly due to her acrobatics.

    Hmm, I suppose the British girl could do *some* damage by throwing her loaded submachine gun, but that *might* not be the right approach. You'd probably be better off using it as a melee weapon, so you could at least get more than one hit in.

    Also I'm not sure if the Soviet girl is holding an anti-tank grenade or a bottle of some sort...

    It's a molotov
    During WW2 in the early fights against the Germans, especially against tanks, they would improvise by throwing them on the engine area to burn out the engine or at the view ports to blind them. They did have AT grenades but a lot of the times, if not most of the time, there was supply shortage.

    Ah, interesting. I had thought of that, but I always thought Molotov cocktails used burning rags as fuses, and didn't see one here. I guess this is the OG version with a "storm match" for ignitor which I hadn't seen before. TIL. Thanks!

    LOL NO Molotov. Soviets hated the fact they always found bottles of schnapps instead of their beloved vodka among the German stuff they left while fleeing westward... and the cheap Sten had a tendency to fail and have stoppages or misfeeds if you did hold the magazine in the middle of a firefight. Also it did not have any proper rear grip.
