I: There was also a moment during the Opera City performance at the end of the year where Tanibe-san played a trumpet live.
T: I was absolutely stunned when they brought up the idea. It was pretty intimidating, but I figured I wouldn't get a chance like that again and gave it a shot. It was an incredible precious experience to me - the feeling I had afterward was one of gratitude. I was also really glad that all the Admirals watched over us so warmly.

▲ She actually really likes to drink!? She told us she really likes citrus-based drinks, and asked us to photograph her with cocktails based on them or that just look appealing to the eye.

I: Please tell us how you feel about the costumes you appeared in.
U: They put in a huge amount of detail! Wearing it made me feel closer to Gambier Bay-chan, which I was happy about. The tights in particular match Gambier-chan well, and took a liking to the specially printed cloth. The shoes and face decorations were like that too, and even the belt seemed like a detailed reproduction of the game... I hope there are more opportunities to wear such detailed costumes!
M: The first impression I ever got from seeing the drawing of Tashkent's costume was how fluffy and cute~ it was. The colors also seemed Russian as well. I thought it would be hard to make the costume a reality on that alone, but I was surprised when I saw how the costume was just like the drawing. I really like the sky-blue cape, and how the lining is a different color and such. They also carefully reproduced how the scarf is torn. The level of perfection really was something else.
T: It was a really wonderful costume that made me feel like "French Coma-chan" the moment I wore it, thanks to the attention to minute details. It's a very comfortable costume too. The anchor to pin the front part of my hair to the crest of the jacket, the tricolore scarf, the little pompons on the hat and shoes... I hope the Admirals get a nice, long look!

At any rate, cute! Let's say cheers with a "salute"!
I: Please tell us your thoughts on reading "Tonight, Another Salute!".
U: Gambier Bay-chan is cute! (laugh) I really like the art, and it's full of expressions. Just looking at it is a pleasure. Gambier Bay-chan's expressions are especially weird- I really like the one with her soul leaving her body, or her mouth becoming peanut-shaped. A lot of the foreign ship girls also appear, including all the shipgirls I perform. I'm happy about that, of course.
M: I like to drink myself, so the alcohol part is pretty enjoyable, and I enjoy our debuts as well. Although our three countries of birth have many differences, there's a surprising harmonious balance in the group of three. It's a really funny and entertaining read. I always look forward to the next chapter and what alcohol they'll feature next.
T: I've been following Morinaga-sensei's drawings and anthology chapters for a long time. They're full of such cuteness and gorgeousness, I really love them... I'm so happy to be able to read it every month! Thank you very much for the cute shipgirls, including Coma-chan of course!

I: Are you all into drinking?
U: I don't drink much, but when I do I really like citrus drinks. Umeshu or other fruit wines too.
W: I usually drink oolong or green tea highballs, or sometimes awamori and such.
I: Awamori!? That's pretty strong.
T: So is she (laugh).
W: I'M NOT THOUGH? (laugh)
T: I turn red and get drunk really fast so I don't drink much, but I pretty much enjoy any drink. Usually a fruit cocktail like a cassis or Sex on the Beach. I drink "Shigure Black"* and such when I get the chance, it's pretty good~!
* This is another brand of awamori...

▲ Using a real shaker with ice and matcha liqueur after adding milk. This apparently made her hands really cold, but a true bartender trains until it doesn't, or something.
