Wow, that was a LOT of death flags going up this episode. Like the entire episode was pretty much screaming at you "Someones gonna sink!" Not very subtle.
Still Its not a bed show, i just hope we get some more battles.

I did not expect them to actually sink a ship at all. I just can't believe it. Fucking Urobuchi, you must be the hidden mastermind behind the scenes. I know it's you.

It has to done in third episode.

I was hoping she won't get sunk, but she did. I feel bad for Mutsuki. She's just waiting for someone who who will never return.

I'm prepare sure this isn't the last time we'll see a shipgirl sunk.

The death flag was there, the moment Matsuki wanted to say something after the mission. That was a huge death flag, either one of them will sink.
At least, kongou class battleships made their appearance in this episode, this is a good thing. RIP Kisaragi, blame your sister ship.

I was just thinking to myself, are they gonna kill people off? I never played KanColle before so since it's canon, I guess they will.



Nagato best ship.

It's not exactly canon, its more so just history. Since all the characters are basically IJN warships, who and when a character dies is really based off of when they did in history. Kisaragi died first because she was the first ship in Kancolle to sink historically (second ship including IJN vessels outside of those included in kancolle). Also, as far as the comment on the game goes, you can make it through the whole game without losing a ship, so history doesnt really play a part there, apart from the maps.

Oh, and Kongou best ship

Ships (in the anime) who survive the war:
Hibiki (taken into the Soviet Union navy and renamed Verniy)
Kitakami (repatriated Japanese soldiers until scrapped in 1946)
Nagato (repatriated Japanese soldiers until nuked twice and scuttled in Operation Crossroads)
Haruna (seriously damaged at port in the raids on Kure, but wasn't actually sunk before the war ended)
Takao (taken by the Royal Navy and sunk as a target ship)

That's it, assuming I'm not forgetting anyone

Hah, alright. I'm pretty sure they are in the anime ... as background characters.


Anyways, does the Teitoku own any subs at all?
He/She who is silly enough to form an expedition team equipped with Sanshiki and Type 91 shells and 4 BBs only.

Well that kind of blows.....

The fight was kind of fast paced, but they showed off some impressive team work and coordination.

She didn't get much screen time, but I liked Kisaragi. She had a very pretty character model and was one of the ship girls without an annoying as fuck personality.

If it wasn't historically accurate, I would've much preferred to see Mutsuki go this episode. She was the one raising all the flags to begin with.

Also, what is this "KUSO Teitoku confirmed" thing people keep mentioning? Another game related term?

Basically means "shitty Admiral", it's for players that makes "bad/weird decision"
In this case, sending 4 Battleship class Kongou sisters to a regular expedition, even though in the anime it saved the Torpedo Squad, but game wise it's a weird decision since It wastes so many resources.

Kuso means"shit/crap" and TTK means "admiral".
Sending out Battleships (BB's) on expeditions is not wise.
from a gamer point of view it should have been the destroyer (kisaragi in this case) that was sent on an exped and the BB(kongou sisters) sent on a sortie(fight) as they are one of the strongest classes for surface fights

This was probably the best episode so far for me tbh

The MC's training paid off and we got some character development for her and a few others too

That death tho. Even though I didn't care for that character I still felt bad because of the fallout and crying that will occur next episode :(

Historically, it actually wasn't a battleship force that was redirected to Wake Island to help with the second attempt, but Soryu and Hiryu, which were supposed to take part in the Pearl Harbor attack along with Akagi, Kaga, Shokaku, and Zuikaku. But of course, they don't have Soryu and Hiryu in the show, so...

Aren't the sunk ship girls destined to become part of the Evil Fleet? So I guess she'll turn up again as part of the enemy, if she's making a return in any fashion.

Anywho, based on the anime adaptation so far, here's my current ranking: Yuudachi > Shimakaze > Atago > Kongou. Depending on how they take it further on, I might come to like other characters more :)

Destined? we don't really know, as there are no specific mentions of it in the game. The only thing we know is The abyssal fleet are born from ships that were sunked, we just don't know if a Kantai Musume can "classify" as a sunken "ship".
This "plot" is usually used in the mangas/doujin. Heck, some manga/doujins even depict the act of "Modernizing", which is fusing other ships to upgrade another ship's stat can also make them into an Abyssal.
If they do it, then it will be a very cruel reunion.
