Well, it may havr been sad, but at least we got more pois this episode. If they are going to sunk a cgaractet, they must make up for it with at least 20 pois.

Surely this is just be hipster and 'grimdark' to grab teenager's attention (with some dire consequences on continuity)? I mean they already made unnecessary backdrop such has ship as ordinary girls defending Humanity (for that matter, shouldn't it just the ship spirit that sunk?). If history of the IJN is to be strictly followed, then Humanity is surely doomed lol...

All those death flags while finally realizing how to really treasure the ones they love :/

Kisaragi getting sunk in action, it was an interesting battle from a surprise attack operation to a retreat and finally a counterattack.

The songs were pretty nice!

KUSO TTK confirmed


For any of us playing the game, this is all I can think of. I wish Kisaragi could've sank in a more dramatic fashion rather than "Let me stand in the wind while an aircraft crashes into me"

Though admittedly that's how she was sunk in real life

I like the action portions of the show, and that they're referencing historical events. The ship sinking gives me more interest in the series.

The first half was actually pretty good for CGDCT... If only the characters weren't so flat.

Still, this is my favorite episode so far.

Instead of making the show in a more serious tone from the start, they decide to randomly put a possible death to drive up conversation. But I guess Kisaragi did sunk in Wake Island so that's fine? Still I won't call the show ballsy to kill off one of their characters, if you want the audience to take your show seriously make a darker tone from the start.

That's little tension during battle, and the enemy is just so ineffective making that scene feel cheap. I know what you're doing but can't you do it better? You got a somewhat competent writer and the show still feel like written by a 14-year-old. It's not like at this point I care about whether or not you would bring back Kisaragi because it has some "amazing" character, I just wonder why you hire the production team if you don't let them do their job?

You want to target fans and casuals at the same time and you will probably end up losing them both, right now it's more entertaining to see how fans react to the whole thing than the show itself. If this is what the sponsor wants: create controversy to drive up sales, they are doing it now, and the results are pretty good, wars everywhere on the internet (don't worry, this episode is written by Hiroyuki Yoshino, so some hate will automatically redirected to him). Watching this show is like watching the big guys behind the curtain making business decision, this show is dead from now on, at least spiritually, the sales is probably fine because of the large fan base.

Nooooo Kisaragi... ;^;

Nice episode, great battle, but the ending with Mutsuki in the sunset and the sad music made me sad :(

But that makes the show even more interersting.

This was a good episode! Lots of emotions, both good and bad ones... Too bad Kisaragi sank, but there were so many death flags. I'm glad it wasn't Mutsuki. People do occasionally die in war, so I'm glad the anime is showing that aspect. It's not good for people who considered her their waifu though...

I feel sorry for Mutsuki, really do, but other than that, seeing Kisaragi sink doesn't really ruslte my jimmies. Maybe 'cause I don't really use her for anything else but expeditions in the game.

It still references history without having to resort to doing a 'sinking' that's very much contrary to the overall feel of the show in the last 2 eps and on a character that has very little exposure. A case of engaging in an activity just because it's popular.

It will be extremely difficult now to make everything from ep1-2 and future ones continuous/coherent. Will the girls be eating cakes and drinking teas anymore? Has sinking not ever happened before? If yes how can the older girls not to be affected already? If not everything in future episodes will be about the fallout and therefore regardless, there's no going back to SoL.

Then there's also the issue of these girls saving Humanity and all and cough..staying faithful to a navy that historically was annihilated. Humanity cannot win if history is repeated :)

So really, the only pathway is to have Kisaragi miraculously survive. Then you gotta ask what's the whole point of this exercise...Damned if you do, damned if you don't, shouldn't have opened this can of worms in the first place.

This episode was greater than expected, the battle of wake island & the history of the sunken ship Kiseragi.
As expected she went down but with a very sad ending.

Now the wait for next week!

I didn't like this chapter because this anime was supposed to be happy moe show, to relax a bit you know.
In this chapter it was clear that one of the two girls was going to die.
So the entire chapter wasn't fun for me, i was more like hoping to stop the obvious scene that was being set and let the girls end safe or at least injured... but well...

I was not looking for madoka in this show xD

It was a somewhat good episode some Yuri here and there talks about telling those around u how u feel before the ship sinks 😉 and then their fight was full of cg as always some parts did seem well animated other Su could tell cg was clearly used but the the thing I was waiting for the death flag yes I knew it was coming probably most of us did see it the tragic death of such a cute character but most of all the first death happened after mutsuki and kisaragi have such nice talk about expressing how mutsuki will tell her something and they will comeback together but
this remind me of madoka when mami and madoka talk and say they will overcome anything together but she dies
plus if some of u don't know he is in the staff list the one and only Gen urobuchi
and just like madokq I was waiting for it show up and it did at ep 3 the same ep that had mami die so I expect more deaths like this hopefully she Wong comeback as an abysal just sayaka as a with but I guess we just have to see 😁

Now that one of the ships was sunk in historically accurate fashion, I wonder if they're going to kill the rest of them in the same way. That's what you get for trying to moe-ify dead WWII Japanese warships.

We all knew Kisaragi was gonna die from about 1/3 the way in but I feel like SOME HOW THROUGH THE POWER OF LOVE AND JAPANESE ANIME shes gonna come back in like a time of great need for Mutsuki, if shes not already dead by then... We only needed one Madoka Magica in this world BUT THANKS JAPAN I GOTTA GO GET THE FEEL BUCKETS OUT OF THE GARAGE AGAIN!

Yes! A ship actually sunk. Kisaragi's death flag was way too strong in this episode.
I was quite disappointed with Mutsuki not getting sunk, but this at the end just about made up for it.

Speaking of this week's obvious death flags, Akagi next please! :D
