The trailer for the movie is looking awful.

>>15464435
Looks no worse than the game itself.

Remember to ignore potatohater.

Kongou sisters gain surprisingly little with their K2s in terms of stats. Haruna only gains two FP from it despite being a level 80 remodel.

>>15464630
Blaming your own mistakes on your shipgirls is the worst form of kuso.

There is no better feeling than doing all the last kills of your EOs in one go without retreats or chokes.

Who?

>>15464652
That was my 4-5 this month. Pleasant surprise. Got my first Mikuma too

>>15464630
I got my 2nd Yuu during the event. Once she reaches Lv70. I'm scrapping my Lv99.

The German in my fleet has to be pure Aryans. Not tainted and mentally handicapped

>>15464722
Stop making fun of Whura

Her big day is tomorrow lads, how does yours look?

This should be enough for at least K2 I hope.

>>15464722
I've been wondering if giving a CL 1 15.2cm kai and a CA gun would be better than just 2 CA guns. The accuracy and fit bonus is very tempting.

>>15464722
Someday they'll give her a K2 and remove that awful hairstyle from her.

>>15464751
The hair is fine, it's the fish face, terrible rigging and ugly uniform that is wrong with her.

>>15464764
I agree with everything you've said, except for the hair part.

>>15464791
Cute, but I wish they made her expressions more alive.

>>15464751
Her hair isn't going to change with K2 when her sisters didn't.

>>15464794

She's supposed to be extremely meek and timid when not Kai Ni. Then she changes to the most gallant girl in Kancolle with her second remodel.

>>15464795
A man can dream.

>>15464722
Nice to know that somewhere every ship has some weirdo that loves her the most.

>>15464807
I have never seen a married Natori but have seen 4 married Arare.

Am I the only one getting a white screen on dmm when using kc3 kai?

>>15464841

>muh searchlight

Jintsuufags are the worst. They just can't accept that their waifu now rests on the trash heap of kancolle history.

>>15464831
Does being a borderline guy count as gallant?

>>15464846

>>15464846
You know it's okay to like both, right?

>>15464849
Being handsome counts as gallant, no matter the gender.

>>15464869
>Being handsome counts as gallant

Hell, no.

Adjective

brave, spirited, noble-minded, or chivalrous:

when I started playing I was going to level up jintsu because I heard she was good, but she seemed boring so I used abukuma instead. I think it ended up being a good choice.

>>15464858

I assume the irony of posting a pic with Kaga to try to make the guy posting Arashi go away was lost on you.

>>15464875
>only using one ship in a game called fleet collection

>>15464877
But Kaga was scuttled by Hagikaze, not Arashi.

is lv65 enough?

>>15464727
One of these days this retard meme will die.

>>15464885
Arashi brought the party.

>>15464885

Arashi got her sunk by leading the USN to her.

>>15464885

He's talking about how Arashi guided the SBD Dauntless that sunk Kaga, Akagi and Souryuu toward then. And yeah>>15464877, it was intentional, I did make fun of Arashi's "achievements" in my first post.

>>15464846
>Jintsuufags are the worst
Still has the highest FP and yasen damage potential, so she's still relevant. In your case however, even Shigurefags would have a field day with you regarding your husbando.

Stop posting cute boys already.

>>15464860
Enjoy your not-above-top-20 rewards.

Other than some recent trophy DDs I think Natori wins in the unpopularity contest.

Arashi did legitimately kick ass before Midway.

>>15464908
>>15464738

Are you guys even trying?

>>15464899
I never knew that is how they fixed Yorktown in time for Midway.

>>15464920
Life is pretty harsh, you fuck up once and that's all anyone remembers you for until the end of time.

>>15464920

Oh really? Tell me her awesome stories about kicking ass... what?

>Assisted in sinking a Gunboat, an old destroyer, an oiler, a minesweeper, and motorship.
Not as amazing as Ooshio and Asashio.

>>15464922
No, I don't really like her. She might get scrapped if she can't use daihatsu.

>>15464927
>Yorktown sank Akagi, Kaga, and Souryu
>No mention of Big E.

>>15464944
I like her better than Ooshio.

>>15464938
What did those do again?

>>15464953
They give godly erections.

>>15464963
No, that's Kasumi.

is kasumi the undisputed champion of literally-nobody-cared-before-k2 among kancolles?

>>15464974
Abukuma.

>>15464978
But Abukuma hasn't broken 1k submissions on Danbooru despite getting her Kai Ni first.

>>15464974
that would be literally everyone

>>15464974

Nobody really cares about Kasumi now, either. She got her fifteen minutes with the rei-go map and that was it. I guess he gets more porn now.

>>15464974
No, Abukuma. Kasumi had the tsunderefags.

>>15464974
Abukuma by a mile. So much that Jintsuu was completely abandoned. Some tried to force Kasumi, but even she had some fans before.

>>15464974

Abukuma, but Kasumi is pretty close. Though nothing will beat Kinu Kai Ni if she ends up as a monster in the meta.

>>15464985
Cranes have always been very popular, also Akatsuki.

>>15464953
Read up on the Battle of Badung Strait

>>15464974
No. Ooshio exists.

>>15464974
Poi is.
It's just you guys didn't join at that time.

>>15464984
She had less art to begin with. But yeah, she's actually not that popular art wise.

>>15465023
Who? Hardly anyone cares about her even now.

>>15464988

Exactly.

is Houshou useful beside that one monthly quest?

Sparkling is placebo

>>15465162
Considering the severe diminishing returns for higher evasion levels, the increased evasion from sparkling doesn't actually do that much at higher levels.

>>15465154
You'd love to shit on lovely Choukai, wouldn't you?

>>15465142

>>15465299
But you can improve Haruna.

>>15465299
She can start by not saying daijoubu every time.

>>15465306
She says it once.

>>15465308
why is it a meme then?

>>15465370
People make the stupidest things into a meme.

Remember back when "a winrar is you!" and "Ima chargin' ma lazor" were both memes?

Will there be time to do 5-5 after the maintenance tomorrow or should i do it today

>>15465408
Rather than obscure rulings I'd like hard mode-tier enemy compositions and different branching for regular maps.

What if we had maps with different routing depending on the day?

It's happening again.

I still think Kasumi is a cunt. Her K2 doesn't help in the slightest.

>>15465306
Then she can continue by not having the translator leave the name Haruna when she is refering to herself

>>15466309
At least she became cuter.

>>15466304
Sounds like a rather bad run. At least yasen is just a formality with Hotels unlike fBBs who struggle to seriously harm Wo Kai.

>>15466312
Haruna isn't the only problem, a lot of characters share the same fate.

What's up with translators refusing to translate someone who uses her name to refer to herself to 'I' or 'Me'?

>>15465499
Blame the 4koma.

>>15466312
>>15466335
When translating the speech of someone who speaks in third person, it's only common sense to retain third person dialogue in the translation.

>>15466335
I think a lot of translators go with it because they think it preserves more information and insecure translators always go for maximal literalism.

Going from cute-sounding in Japanese to retarded-sounding in English isn't THAT far off, though. Maybe. Not really.

>>15466472

Talking in 3rd person isn't even normal in Japan. It's a childish trait used for cutesy and moe in characters so it's intentional. In real life it sounds to japanese as artificial as it sounds to us, specially when a grown up person does it.

You think anime/manga/game characters are supposed to sound exactly like real people? You're a fucking idiot. Translating third person into first person is a general standard for official and fan translations since third person gives completely different impressions to fans in each language.

>>15466807
Don't backpedal and pretend to be someone else. Your entire argument is that you want third person English because real life adults in Japan don't normally use third person. If you give up on that, you're admitting >>15466348 is wrong and >>15466497 is completely irrelevant to what it was replying to.

>>15466816
>Don't backpedal and pretend to be someone else.
I'm not doing that, retard.

>Your entire argument is that you want third person English because real life adults in Japan don't normally use third person.
Don't speak on behalf of other people because you're clearly too stupid to comprehend anyone's thought process. Are you by any chance potato-hater's older brother who knows how to use Shift?

Oh, and stop being so angry, there's no reason for that.

>>15466824
I'm not speaking on behalf of anyone; I'm confronting you with your own words. You've replied with nothing of substance, just vague denials, and you're getting upset because you got caught posting nonsense.

You're confronting me with YOUR twisted meaning of someone else's words.

The fact you're unable to comprehend that someone else might join in only confirms your stupidity.

>>15466836
If you were someone else, you wouldn't be contradicting yourself by insisting on your own interpretation of "someone else's" words, and you'd have some sort of explanation instead of a bunch of empty raging.

>you wouldn't be contradicting yourself by insisting on your own interpretation of "someone else's" words
What.
Where am I contradicting myself?

You're the one who is emptily raging so I simply told you off.

>>15466844
I just told you where you're contradicting yourself. Try reading the posts you reply to. You ignored the original point and threw a tantrum over being called an idiot, which proves you're taking it personally.

>>15466848
I'm not taking anything personally, I'm just disgusted by the fact someone like you is allowed to post publicly.
Your whole point is based on me being one of those people, it's faulty by definition. You're the one who's an idiot because you're unable to comprehend something as simple. But okay, I'll reply to your initial post in more detail.

>You think anime/manga/game characters are supposed to sound exactly like real people?

>It isn't, you goddamn newshit. Try reading some manga. I read >200 and translating third person speech in third person is a common practice.


Not that guy, but isn't it a common practice that is wrong in general? Most pros translate it to first person. What compels the fan translations to massively do the opposite?

>>15466867
Yeah but it is a common practice nonetheless so that guy is outright wrong and it's clear he has no idea about M&A. Just some stuck up faggot who got lost and came upon this thread.

>What compels the fan translations to massively do the opposite?
This guy explained it well: >>15466350
Most of fan translators aren't pros and prefer literal style. It sounds worse but there's much lower chance of fuck up.

>>15466867

imo, fan translations are done for people that usually know the implications of third person while refering to oneself as well as a lot of unusual speech patterns present in anime/manga/etc.

Pros do translations for any Joe that may grab the manga in an bookstore and start reading

I like the music that plays in the background when you have this furniture set.

There's no single picture out there depicting Ayanami K2 with her hair down.

>>15466803
>>15466803
>You think anime/manga/game characters are supposed to sound exactly like real people? You're a fucking idiot.
You think translating dialogue of anime/manga/game characters will suddenly make them sound exactly like real people? You're a fucking idiot.

>Translating third person into first person is a general standard for official and fan translations
Official translations maybe. But fan translations? Nah.

And besides I've learned not to trust official translations unless the translator has accumulated experience doing trustworthy fan translations. Many official translations fuck up a lot of things.

>since third person gives completely different impressions to fans in each language.
And that would be the fault of official translators to begin with. The trend is changing, slowly but surely.

>>15466905
There should be an Ayanami B with her hair down that would be stronger but more expensive to sortie.

>>15466858
You say you're not taking it personally, but you've been freaking out and posting nothing but a furious stream of insults the whole time. Now that you're at least trying, I'll address your points.

>None of them is implying that you strawmanning retard.
>>15466497 is clearly saying he thinks third person English should be used because "In real life it sounds to japanese as artificial as it sounds to us, specially when a grown up person does it." By the way, you should've used especially.

>Nice argument
That was an insult, not an argument. The argument was in the rest of the post, and I'll restate it for clarity: 1. Anime/manga/game characters aren't supposed to sound exactly like real people do, so the way real people speak doesn't determine how character lines should be translated. 2. The general standard is to translate third person into first person. 3. Third person gives completely different impressions to fans in each language.

>Try reading some manga.
Take your own advice. Official translations consistently use first person by default. Fan translations are more varied since a number of them are done by people who barely speak English or are retranslating from third languages, but using first person is still the dominant practice. If you want to dispute this, let's use the official 4koma as a case study. List some examples from that of characters other than Haruna referring to themselves in the third person when a normal English speaker would've used the first person form.

>>15466549
Now I am at 350th (1912+), while current 500th is 1790pts. It's 120pts different, is this safe?

>>15466915
>1. Anime/manga/game characters aren't supposed to sound exactly like real people do, so the way real people speak doesn't determine how character lines should be translated.
And yet you want people to translate third person to first person. Are you saying that real people speak in third person?

>>15466915
What he said doesn't mean he wants "anime/manga/game characters are supposed to sound exactly like real people".

1. Nobody is arguing that and you're awfully wrong by thinking otherwise and trying to sound smart by talking about it
2. Not among fan translations
3. Yeah but it's irrelevant because people interested in M&A know what it means.

>Official translations consistently use first person by default.
I didn't say a single thing about official translations as I don't really care about them because they're 99% irrelevant due to being slow.

>but using first person is still the dominant practice
Good joke.

>If you want to dispute this, let's use the official 4koma as a case study. List some examples from that of characters other than Haruna referring to themselves in the third person when a normal English speaker would've used the first person form.
>I read a single manga and I will extrapolate its translation on thousands of other manga
Just wow.

>it's another autistic argument episode

>>15466935
I really don't want to take part in half of those but rarely other people are willing to do so and it hurts to look at people being wrong in threads I like.

>>15466921
A-anyone?

>>15466921
>>15466949
No, it isn't safe.

Haruna is daijoubu

>>15466921
I think it should be safe. There are 8 hours left until maint and there will be 3 hours after it (?) so people would have to gain >10 points per hour meaning they would have to rank all this time. I doubt it will happen.

>>15466954
>私の疲れを見抜いたのですね…提督、ありがとうございます。お休みしますね。
It's telling that this is my favourite line from Haruna just because it's the only one where she uses watashi.

STRONG.

>>15466950
>>15466960
OK. I will sleep for a while then.

I fucking hate it when the same ship keeps being targeted repeatedly.

>>15466939
Hahahaha nigga just walk away from the screen like nigga close your eyes nigga haha.

But seriously, why bother going to all that effort anyway? You'd get more peace of mind just ignoring it than the miniscule satisfaction you would gain in the near impossible chance that you manage to clearly and decisively win an internet argument.

>>15466911
>You think translating dialogue of anime/manga/game characters will suddenly make them sound exactly like real people? You're a fucking idiot.
I said the exact opposite. Learn to read. They're supposed to sound like fictional characters, not real life people.

>And that would be the fault of official translators to begin with.
Did you learn English by reading translated manga? They give different impressions because they're used differently by natives.

>>15466923
In western fiction, the third person is commonly used the way >>15466472 described. Haruna isn't supposed to sound like the Incredible Hulk. Fans found that misuse of the third person so bizarre they turned it into a meme and spent years making fun of it. She should sound like a cutesy cartoon girl instead of the Hulk.

>>15466976
I'd like to know as well. I just can't help it.

Okay, I'll try to restrain myself next month. No. I WILL restrain myself. Wish me luck, anon.

>>15466974
My Maya was being targeted by every ship in J node at 4-3 earlier. 4 times in a row and they all fired at her exclusively. Fucking J node.

>>15466983
>Haruna isn't supposed to sound like the Incredible Hulk.
But she does.

>>15466932
That post was using real life people as a basis to disagree with the guy who was against leaving things in the third person. If he didn't think they're supposed to sound like real people, he had no point.

>2. Not among fan translations
>I read a single manga
The official 4koma is the most relevant example for this thread. It was translated on this site, so it'll follow practices which are standard here. If you want to count thousands of other manga, go do that right now and come back with your research paper. I'll be happy to read your report with a large sample size.
>3. Yeah but it's irrelevant because people interested in M&A know what it means.
An incorrect translation which can be deciphered by most of the target audience is still wrong. For example, it's not translating if you leave some lines in Japanese (without even using notes) because you expect fans to know some Japanese.

>>15466994
Haruna smash

>>15466983
You're fucking delusional if you think the writers take "western fiction" into account.

>>15466988
Take it easy anon

I summon thee

>>15467001
Wikiafag translators butchered a lot more than Haruna smash.

>>15466999
>no point
Calm down. He simply offered more information on the subject. People in the thread aren't divided into two groups with completely opposite opinions. Trying to segregate them like that will only lead to shitflinging which you started and I continued while other people simply ignored the subject because they no longer wanted to have anything to do with it after it took this aggressive turn.

>so it'll follow practices which are standard here
Precisely why it is an awful example. Vast majority of manga aren't translated by anons. And you were talking about manga in general. If you weren't, you forgot to specify that and it's your fault.

>3.
Yeah but it's how things have been since forever. You're behaving like someone who started reading manga this year and wants to save the world. As our Aniplex of America overlords said, "just because you're right doesn't mean you're correct". Or was it the other way around?

Maybe Haruna is just slow like she said in the anime.

>>15467022
In feudal Japan, noblewomen and samurai typically referred to themselves in the third person when talking to their lords.

>>15466894
Worth asking somebody on some drawthread of /a/.

Will it still be rainy season after this update? I haven't had time this month to play so I need to farm coins for that floor.

>>15467052
No, Summer will start.

This thread needs some best Asashio class

>>15467091
Why is she pretending to be a SS?

>>15467095
Subs are the biggest and lewdest sluts.

how many 6 and 7 range planes do you think I need to be safe for the next event?

>>15467144
If you have all the bombers and interceptors from the event, you have enough. What you should be worried about is having more fighters in case supercharged CV Hime, CV Water Hime or Wo kai 4 is spammed on the boss node.

>>15467144
range doesn't matterｗｗ

>>15467038
Yea I thought the whole point of her personality was a soft spoken overly polite girl. It makes sense she would use a more formal way of speaking, especially to her TTK.

Arashio is truly a fearsome girl.

What is the point of upgrading AA stats on a CV?

>>15467144
One dragon remodel per month should be enough.

>>15467209
What is the point of upgrading the AA stat of any ship?

>>15467216
AAFD on DDs.

>>15467209
Seeing it maxed feels good.

>>15467218
>AAFD
You mean AACI right?

>>15467226
No.

>>15467231
I hope you don't actually use these.

Based.

>>15467231
And what would modernising AA stat help in this regard?

>>15465299
Here you go.

>>15467209
http://en.kancollewiki.net/wiki/Aerial_Combat

Prinz needs to go on a diet. Her displacement is too high.

I only got Nagato this month so I couldn't do the 5-1 monthly before.

Now I am trying to do it for the first time but the map requires you to have 2DD and 2CAV for optimal routing. However the quests wants you to get 3BB and 1CL. I tried both with 2DD and 2 CAV for the last 2 ships but either way I always end up on node E. Either I go from C to E or from H to E.

Is there any fleet composition that doesn't suck and actually lets me complete the monthly?

>>15467242
AACI.

>>15467238
How else will I achieve AACI with a DD if I have no ducks?

>>15467286
Use 2 CA(V) and pray you get routed south. I just got routed east six times in row, what the fuck.
CA are much better because they guarantee preboss -> boss. A -> C is only 50% iirc while preboss -> boss is only 20% if you don't have CAs.

>>15467292
Upgrade it to Duck gun.
People lived without AACI for a long time before it was introduced, you can as well. AACI is overrated.

>>15467286
Also I forgot to mention that those nigger submarines keep tanking my BBVs and CAVs. Fuck this map.

>>15467302
Hyuuga oneshots the red sub even in line ahead.

At the 6th try at 5-1 I finally got to the boss and got a red T and couldn't sink the sub.

Kill me.

>>15467329
Wait with that decision until the quests where you have to fight on this map in air denial and with 0-1 BB.

>>15467329
>tfw got red T last month and Yodo just barely killed the sub
Thank god for T4s

>>15467337
5-1 quest are pretty easy.
Except for that one which doesn't have routing.

4-3 makes leveling DDs actually fun.

Aoba a shit

>>15467355

5-4 is better

Would you allow your girls to engage in tsundere behaviour or would you put a stop to that shit quick?

>>15467387
I don't care how they act as long as they murder the abyssals I tell them to.

Holy shit, Hyuuga is more effective than multiple carriers.

By the way it finally let me go to boss, previously it was A-C-E seven times in row. This time C as well but at least it directed me south after that.

>>15466450

I'm 500 points above rank 100, will I be safe?

>>15467419
Hyuuga is a good girl.

>>15467384
What composition should be used to level DDs in 5-4?

>>15467444

dd flag+BB+3CV+non-DD that can carry a 4th drum

>>15467435
Yes, enjoy your zero plane

>>15467444
Don't bother unless it's a married DD, the process is too slow if she can't get MVP while 4-3 allows for slow ship leveling and CL passive leveling. 5-1 if you really want to finish with the DDs.

>>15467444
DD with 10cm +AAFD,T13Kai, drum, 2 CAVs with 4 drums, 3 Unryuu's.

>>15467468

I'm sure this will be a month where they give out 51cm to top 100.

>>15467476
Probably only summer event teaser rewards like March

>>15467493

>had to get top 20 for a type 1

that was some bullshit

How many furniture coins should I have for summer furniture?

>>15467240
Shit VA.

>>15467476
They will stop giving it out eventually, it's been about 7 from ranking and 2 as event rewards.

>>15467502
That was such a shitty month to rank in.

>>15467561
Next one was nice.

>>15467561

>triple bofors

You're all set for when they introduce equipment locking.

>>15467583
don't they actually pay people to think up new mechanics

>>15467577
Yuubari's navel is something else.

>>15467611
It's cute.

Rate his taste. All of them were married.

>>15467493
>1 sonar, 2 sextuples and a fighter plane
What does it mean?

>>15467623

poor girl had her niche stolen by the pink jew

>>15467632
0/5

>>15467632
drop kasumi and grab kawakaze
drop teruducky and grab kiyoshimo

>>15467632
Only the ducks are ok.

>>15467632
2.6/5

>>15467635
Shiun isn't a fighter plane and that wasn't the month for Summer's teasers, it's this ongoing and soon ending month. You can't really tell much from rewards that are not given right before the event

>>15467636
But Akashi couldn't steal her job.

>>15467654
>adding shitgures instead of removing them

Why is Tanaka wasting time sending useless DDs into private schools instead of adding all of the Ayanami class into the game?

>>15467632
Ducks and Ushio are great, indifferent about the other 2.

>>15467793

Shibafu is too expensive (halve a yyear budget spent iin that Mogami sprite) and Tanaka proably sexually harrased Drew.

>>15467793
We have a new hotness.

>>15467809
>halve a yyear budget spent iin

Are you drunk anon?

>>15467809
Do we honestly know how much they're paid? For all we know they're paid in pennies and that's why they draw up shit when we know most can do better.

>>15467809
shibafu isn't drawing because of World of Tanks, not because his art is expensive.

>>15467835
They definitely got a raise now.

Kawazake is a sexual predator.

>>15467387
>tsundere behaviour
Scrapped on sight.

>>15467305
if hyuga kills the sub wouldn't it be better to use abukuma instead of yodo?

>>15467927
It's probably for backup.

>>15467835
>they're paid in penises
That sounds surprisingly appealing.

Until you imagine Tanaka's face.

>>15467927
As >>15467931 said, it's good to have two sub killers (Hyuuga's damage is low if she doesn't score a crit and it happens) and my Abu is already lv99.

>>15467938
>penises
This is what happens when someone reads nothing but H doujins all the time.

>>15467980
But how would he farm Egusas if he read doujin all day?

>>15467931
>>15467938
can you use abukuma with sonar+depth charge+torpedo?

>>15468014
No, Tanaka will show up at your door and tell you to not do that.

>>15468014
Yes, but going hybrid will always be inferior.

>>15468014
If you are going double line on the boss node, what do you think her opening torp is going to do?
If the sub shows up, what do you think her damage output will be against the sub in hankousen?

>>15467861
>Kawazake
Who?

haha very funny game

how many points do i need for top 500 buin

>>15468061
Read the wiki.

>>15468061

Stop being retard and put your antisub CL in flag while using ring formation.

>>15468061
Why aren't you using superior Mogami and Mikuma?

>>15468061
I can understand if you don't have Mikuma, but Mogami is much better than those two.

>>15468061
>line ahead
>Melon

Too cute. She's flatter than flat.

Ayanami a SHIT.

Is anyone else going to scrap Asashio if she doesn't live up to the hype?

If I use Akitsumaru for AS in PvP will my baux take any major hits?

>>15468107
The black overall work so well with her, and I just love that long ass ponytail. One of the rare times I could praise Shitbafu.

>>15468121
No, that sounds retarded.

>>15468124

>>15468129
Indeed, she looks lovely, especially for the cool light on her belt.

Was it worth it? I want to drink wine out of her navel.

>>15468145
No, enormous breasts are awful.

>>15468145
Definitely not.

>>15468145
Now you have a spare carrier for shiplocking purposes.

>>15468145
Do you already blueprint the essentials? Why not I guess.

If not, fuck no.

>>15468107
I can barely wait for the remodel of girls like Miyuki and Shikinami. It'll all look really cool with their black and red sailor uniforms.

>>15468177
I would do that to just knock some sense into her, this shit isn't Operation Ten-go.

>>15468145
Got another red plane for memestrike.

Can't wait.

Who's going to be the next Kai Ni after Asashio?

Even more DDs?
CL?
Aoba?
Or something completely different.

>>15468234
DDs
Only DDs are getting Kai Ni's from now on.

>>15468206
didn't they use ring formation in ten-go though?

>>15468238
>Only DDs are getting Kai Ni's from now on.
Truly heaven.

>>15468234
>Even more DDs?
Yes
>CL?
No
>Aoba?
Haha, no.
>Or something completely different.
Come back in a year or two, that is if the game isn't dead by then or you haven't left it.

>>15468234
Aoba for 5-3 Mikawa quest.

>>15468239
Yeah and we know how that ended.

>>15468239
Ah shit you're right, guess she thinks if you do it they will end up dead again. Not like Ahead would have changed much either.

So, Kaga and Akagi K2 when?

>>15468259
When the game has less than 200K active players.

>>15468260
About 2 to 3 years.

>>15468266
meant for >>15468259 but it might work for both.

That's two months in a row that I neglected to do EOs...

>>15468234
Best case scenario is a Kagerou or gumo remodel

>>15468281
You're going to regret it when two-blueprint K2s start showing up.

>>15468281
I can understand 4-5 and 5-5, but why 1-5, 2-5 and 3-5? The former two take no effort at all, while 3-5 has become a lot more easier and bearable than ever before.

>>15468282
Or Inazuma/Sazanami/Samidare but it'll probably just be another Mutsuki by yadokari.

>>15468292
Doing more than sending out expeditions and clearing dailies has become more effort than I can muster and two months passed by before I knew it.

>>15468298
You only did dailies and expeditions during the event?

>>15468298
Expeditions and dailies require far more effort and are less important than EOs.

>>15468306
Before and after. Got my hard medal and gave up on life after that.

There sure are a lot of sidetails in the game: Nachi, Kaga, Akebono, Ayanami, Kasumi, Harusame, Hagikaze. That's more than enough enough for a sidetail fleet.

>>15468177
You would raise your hand to your girls?

>>15468341
Of course, strong admirals need to show discipline.

Honestly no, I'm too much of a wimp, the worst I would do is slam my fist against a desk or wall if any went out of line.

>>15468329
Too many statsfags for people to care as sad as it is.

>>15468352
All of the ships in the game are good girls, they wouldn't ever step out of line.

>>15468329
You forgot Hiryuu and Nagara which lets you use kidou.

>>15468329
>>15468366
But sidetails suck compared to letting your hair down.

>>15468377
That's your opinion.

>>15468377
Sometimes it works like it did for Kinugasa's pigtails, sometimes it's a travesty.

does 6-4 give more rank points than 5-4

>>15468409
Ranking in 6-4 sounds like a great idea.

>>15467809
I thought Fumikane is more expensive to hire because he has successful works on his resume. All Shibafu does is promotional arts.

I've prepared a second Asashio for in case her kai 2 stats are good. I have faith that they will be good.

>>15468409

They give the same.

>>15468415
Okay

>>15468415
>dupes
There are way more than enough "elite" DDs so you do not need them. This was only a thing 2 years ago, it shouldn't be now.

twintails > sidetail > all others
