Nice episode. Fubuki's friends are helping her improve, and even Fubuki's doing her best too!

I love both the OP and ED! ^^

Cute episode, that was very enjoyable. I'm still amazed that's one of the SEIYUU are playing multiple characters in the show, especially Sakura Ayane. I hope we see more Shimakaze cause she's the cutest to me so far.

OP and ED songs are great! Also, the animation is stunning. Really looking forward to the battle next episode.

I can't believe the anime actually showcased the repair mechanics. It was rather hilarious to watch the instant repair bucket get used. It goes without saying that the enjoyment of the anime depends greatly on the knowledge of the game. It's like trying to watch Carnival Phantasm without knowing anything about Fate/ and Tsukihime.

Haha, there's the popular portrayal of Myoukou-class heavy cruisers as unmarried, アラサー OLs, though I'm sure Haguro-chan can find someone to love her and Ashigara might if she goes biribiri with K2.

Look like next episode will be the Battle of Wake Island, where Kisaragi historically sank.

^This--I thought it was particularly amusing when 4 of her characters (the 3 sisters and Nagato) were in the same conversation. (^^ Sakura Ayane does good work, I think, and it's always fun to hear the wildly different voices seiyuus can do.

Overall, really digging the show so far.

I don't play the game, but I quite like this anime.

With that long repair times for Akagi, she's gonna need lots of buckets of those instant potions prepared. Might as well call her the bucket queen.

I was laughing really hard at Fubuki hitting the pole in the water and Kisaragi getting sunk by the chalk from Ashigara.

It's a nice nod to the game that they kept stuff like the long repair time, but spending a whole day in the bath? Usually thats not that good of an idea.

Every time Yuudachi speaks: "Poi poi poi poi poi poi poi poi poi"

Shimakaze :3

Are they really recycling CGI..? The scene of Fubuki tripping while on water looks exactly the same as episode 1's.

I only just noticed how many characters are voiced by the same voice actor, or is that for the game?

I want to know what's in that bucket. Cause that must be some good shit, it not only repaired her, but gave her an orgasm. Or at least that's as close as I can think of to what that sound was.

I don't want to like this. This is the kind of show my grandfather always warned me about.
I find it distressing to side with them when I know how this all plays out, and what it stands for.
I'm hoping I can temporarily turn off my genetic memory to be able to enjoy this. Cause the concept is a lot cooler than I thought it would be.
Like Idolmaster, my knowledge of the series prior to this was limited to dj's. I'm hoping that it'll rise above rule 34 for me like its predecessor.

More of Fubuki being irritatingly incompetent.

More Poi.

Hopefully we see more Shimakaze, and more Nagato. They are listed on the character roster as main characters, while almost all of the other girls in the torpedo squad are listed as supporting characters. I pray that's an indicator of things to come.

Very catchy opening song. Even though the clips were edited together from the anime, it looked quite sharp.

Aesthetically one of the best looking shows this season. It continues to be a visual delight. Also accompanied by a very nice navel themed soundtrack. I was really digging it during the training portions.

Overall, it was a decent episode. Some nice development for the main girl. Glad we got see Shimakaze at least once. I hate the fact she isn't in it very much. Other than that, not much else happened, perhaps a little world building here or there for us to get an idea of how things work.

Oh god if the anime is going to be even remotely historical, we may be losing Kisaragi next episode.

So far so good on the anime though. The school slice of life PV had me worried but it's good to see the school part is actually relevant and not just bullshit. Also nice to see Ashigara being awesome. She's such an underrated CA...Also all of that Ooi x KTKM. <3

Really liking the premise even more. Hopefully this ends the part where Fubuki seems weak and not suited for battle.

Hopefully, they will be able to show more of the girls. Really like the short bit of Shimakaze and the other destroyers.

Episode much more enjoyable, as the narrative slows the pace and by a setting much SOL.
This time while abusing a bit with the fanservice, the story flows in a fun way.
I do not know the game and do not know what can be improved, but if they keep the narrative set as the SOL and begin to give more space to the main plot, it can become, even with its limitations, a TV series quite enjoyable.
Drawings and animations of a good standard, opening and ending pretty.

From all the comments and my so far underwhelming viewing experience, I get the impression that one has to have played the game to really enjoy this.
