Hmm, usual fluff. After great first episode, this was a bit of a letdown. Let's hope they do better next time.

The CGDCT & SOL this episode was much more enjoyable this time around and has left a better impression. Fubuki reminds me of Miyafuji from SW. Those three sisters can sure be trouble working her around the clock. I'm starting to see characters that I recognize from when I looked this up a while back such as Shimakaze.

After watching this, I think I'll play this before starting new episodes:


"I can learn from Akagi-senpai?" You sure can, Fubiki!
- how to spend most of your time in the docks. They actually put a timer in. Nice touch :D
- how to eat a ton. Bauxite queen ftw.

This episode = Akagi being Akagi haha.

Yay for more Tone screen time! Yay for DesDiv 6 screen time! I like how they put the other ship girls in the background. I just wish they're not so uh...static. Ooh and the ED is nice as well.

As a notice to anyone who hasn't played the game: The Shipgirls actually do have some memories of their lives as ships, at least up to the point where they sank- For example, Yahagi (another best girl) mentions in her in game lines about being worried about Yamato, as in accordance with when Yahagi escorted the Yamato before they both sank.

>More KTKM-sama, I am happy, nothing else matters except everything else
>The Sendai sisters keep up with their in-game personalities really well (obviously especially with their great voice-acting.)
>The various Heavy Cruisers that you see (who will be taller than the child-age girls, all of whom are DDs) have some art adjustments in the anime in comparison to the game. For example, the two instructors you saw during Fubuki's training, Tone and Chikuma look somewhat tanned in their pre-kai ni model, along with Jintsuu, but they're clearly as white as everyone else here. Atago (boobs blonde) looks MUCH thinner than her quite large in-game art figure, which is good.
>Looks like Zuikaku is actually there with Shoukaku (in the OP.) Yamato also appeared, but no Musashi sadly.
>I don't understand why the academy is filled with so many of the less-than-useful ships though... I guess everyone also wants their waifu time and that'll be difficult to adjust.
>For the rest of the Destroyers (DDs) to be introduced, they definitely need to do Yukikaze and Shigure. In terms of Light Cruisers (CL), Kiso (captain Harlock) and Isuzu (radar farm) have not been shown (why Kuma and Tama instead though? I barely even remember them.) None of the submarines are present at the moment. Akashi has not yet been introduced (maybe later.) Light Carriers (CVL) are non-existent, and probably no chance of seeing Taihou's booty.

It was okay. Nothing really happened regarding plot. Fubuki got lots of character development. As others have mentioned, this is definitely a show for people who have played the game. The number of characters and references are completely lost on non-players.

I'd say it's a 7 or 8 tops for players and about 6 for non players. OP song, however, is amazing though.

That was a good epoisode :)

Nice to see Fubuki improving and all :P

I kinda lol'd at Akagi being in the bath for 15 hours for repair, but once you get that instant regen, all of it get's fixed in an instant!

Hope we see more battle ship action soon!

Can't wait for the next episode!

That repair time, dropped to zero in seconds lol.
Fubuki has improved, still having problems keeping her balance but improvement nonetheless.

Damn, OP's too good. And ED's not that bad as well.
Special shoutout to Kisaragi, Akatsuki, and Shimakaze!

Though Fubuki's strong at academics, she's weak physically.
But she's great physically, if you know what I mean.
Woah, that instant repair bucket. Damn, Akagi eats a lot.

Sendai, Jintsuu, and Naka are training Fubuki to strengthen her up.
"Without dissent, without shame, without resentment."
With that, Nagato accepts Fubuki for the next mission!
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

I don't get the girl who says "poi" at the end of every sentence. And it's starting to get a little ecchi-esque. There's nothing wrong with that, but it wasn't what I was expecting. How many times must the "Oops, I accidentally ran face first into your giant boobs" gag be done? The bath house scene was ridiculous. But it was nice to see Fubuki making some progress.

Wow, a protagonist that actually trains to become good? I like it. It's better than those protagonist that starts off with godlike powers or protagonist that suddenly gets power up during battle. But still, the design of Fubuki is plain as hell, it feels like a side character from another anime became a main character in this anime.

I know the classroom was introduced in the previous episode, but I can't believe they went through with it. Even in alternate universe Earth with ship girls and demonic enemy ships, we can't seem to get away from school. Well, that was forgiven after seeing how the docks worked. I laughed way too hard at seeing the timer above Akagi's head. That 15 hour repair time is too real, and seeing how buckets work was just too much.

Anyways, this show is silly, and at times annoying. It's the same reason why I played Kancolle muted - the characters are truly flat, and seeing (and hearing them) them animated is just reaffirming that. This isn't a show to look for depth, and it seems the show makes no attempts to do so. It's fan service for the fans, and advertisement for the series, and for that, so far so good.

Also, as a side note, the treatment of the Admiral is truly fascinating. Were I not familiar with the games, I would have thought it was akin to a visual novel.

Good job Fubuki, not giving up and she has the higher ups approval.

As for eating a lot, a very big understatement.

So they bathe to heal when they get injured, and then they orgasm.

This just keeps getting better and better.

This is growing on me. I liked the obvious nods that this is indeed based on a game, ie insta repair bucket. I am assuming the admiral is the player so in essence us the viewer. As I said before, never played but I have played other games so it was pretty cute what they did. Fubuki really is trying so hard. You go get it girl. 🥰

Poor Fubuki, she can't get any rest. Poi! But the other girls mean well and she's improving slowly but surely.
