>>16474353
Use 2 DD 2 CV. I got perfect S

>>16474361
I did it with CL.

>>16474366
Perfect S?

>>16474368
Nope, just an S. CVs are overkill and don't need levels (for me).

>>16474369
You aren't farming dragons then, I take it.

Does anyone know if there are translations of the texts when you beat the events, the one where they show the maps and put stamps? I remember spring 2016 was something along the lines of retreating because the remaining enemies kept launching attacks or something like that.

>>16474372
Done a months ago.

>>16474380
Well that's nice. I'm still 4 short of my target of 24 T99s.

>>16474373
Nobody translates those or Ooyodo's briefings, Spring 2016 is the only one because I assume it was very unusual.

Left or right?

>>16474415
Right with left's hat.

since sara will probably require a catapult for k2 what kind of obnoxious quest will people who didn't get one from the last event have to do to get another?

>>16474418
Looks weird.

>>16474373
>>16474391
Quite a few Ooyodo briefings are actually done on the wiki (and even typeset). Check the individual event pages.
http://en.kancollewiki.net/wiki/Events

>>16474430
I assume one which requires Hatsuzuki.

>>16474373
English wiki (not wikia) does them somtimes.

>>16474434
Shit, I meant Hatsukaze.

>>16474391
>Nobody translates those.
That's a shame, would be interesting to know a little more, thanks.
>>16474432
>>16474435
I was actually talking about the post clear blue screen with all maps and stamps, but thank you anyways.

>>16474373
>>16474465
I know, but that's what we have.
As far as Spring 2016 specifically goes, we rescued our allies (Iowa) but were unable to recapture their anchorage.

>>16474465
Oh right, I never even paid attention to those because I just assumed all it says it "congrats on clearing the event TTK bye"

>>16474468
I see, thank you anon.
>>16474469
> I just assumed all it says it "congrats on clearing the event TTK bye".
I was on the same boat until spring 2016 came and read that post and today i just remembered it.

While we still on that topic and I know what I'm going to ask is very selfish and haughty, does anyone mind translating these from now onwards?

>>16474497
I don't mind, although my full completion screenshots only go back to Spring 2015. Hopefully the guy who does Ooyodo briefings could typeset them.

>>16474516
You can probably get older completion screenshots from clear videos if you are so inclined.

>>16474516
I actually meant from Winter 2017 onwards, since I thought nobody would bother with past events but if you gonna do past events then by all means work with what you have, thank you anon.

Who is bustier, Iowa or Saratoga?

>>16474623
I think it could be fuck off.

>>16474430
Catapult is for Shoukaku and Zuikaku only as if the fairies didn't give it away.

If anyone cares here's all of the completion screens.

http://imgur.com/a/2wq2C

So the consensus is that the new PVP #1 is awesome? I got five fleets of 99-120 subs or single married wives.

>>16474415
Right.
>>16474662
Nice.

>>16474671
Yeah, seems like when they said "harder but more exp" they simply meant high level ships.

>>16474671
Which option is that again?

>>16474662
Thanks.

>>16474662
Thank you.

>Back then in 2013 there was no stamps.
Interesting.

>Kaga's is just an obligatory one
Stone cold.

>>16474717
I knew I was right to like Akagi more.

>>16474717
What the fuck is wrong with her face?

>>16474717
>Akagi's face
ugh

>>16474717
Kagafags performing wrist slitting as we speak.

>>16474717
I bet that inside the round box there is a heart chocolate. You can clearly see she's embarrassed and it really isn't a giri choco.

>>16474734
I think it's less her face and more that she now has a man's neck.

>>16474717
>giving Valentine's chocolate in January

>>16474735
Kaga's face is also questionable.

>>16474717
Ugly ass art as usual. Also of course Kaga is dull as her chocolate.

>>16474743
At least it looks somewhat human.

>>16474717
Somebody send him away so he can learn to draw again.

>>16474717
>more and more shibafu
please kill me

>>16474749
Not with that tumor ear it doesn't. Akagi got luck her ear is still somewhat hidden by her hair.

>>16474717
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH

>>16474759
Ear isn't face.

>>16474717
If you're going to have art to celebrate holidays at least have the goddamn courtesy of having someone who can actually draw well do them.

Finally.

Crafting 3 batches of Maruyu in one month really took a toll on my resources.

Time to stock up for the event.

>>16474817
>buying slots
>trying to craft Maruyu when docks aren't busy

>>16474817

welp, at least you shouldn't have problems with ammo. And those buckets look ok so maybe you can skip expedition 2

Don't forget that ranking rewards are tonight so either go to sleep now or don't at all.

>>16474817
Why would you do this so close to event time

>>16474840
It's only a small event.

>>16474840
It's a small event, he'll be alright.

>>16474827
Extra construction dock space gives increased chances of crafting ships that aren't Maruyu. And it's pointless LSCing for Maruyu if I can only do one craft a day.

I primarily bought docks as makeshift ship slots to store KTKM and Ooi back when I spammed 250/30/200/30 though. I still do for KTKM since she's available from all 30.

>>16474840
No idea, but I think I should be able to at least hit cap for the event.

>>16474840
He has good ships. He can easily get to 100k fuel, 60k steel and 30k bauxite before Valentines.

>>16474848
Exactly, that's why it's better to not buy docks and do 30 all -> 3 Maruyu crafts for dailies.

>makeshift ship slots to store KTKM and Ooi
Interesting idea but it shows me you don't do much 5-1. They drop there all the time. In 3-3 too.

I really recently just started playing and heard that there is an event coming up. So I am trying to stockpile my resources/get buckets. With pic related how fucked am I? Can I successfully participate? I hear it is a small event and maybe I can just do easy mode. I feel like at best I can only get my resources to around 10,000k+

>>16474863
>With pic related how fucked am I?
Very.

>>16474863
Forgot pic

>>16474770
Kinugasa is the best Valentine

>>16474863
Ships and equipment matter more in events than resources.

>>16474862
>but it shows me you don't do much 5-1. They drop there all the time. In 3-3 too.
Oh, but I do. In fact they drop too frequently for me to keep up, that's why I needed the extra storage in the first place.

>>16474869
>HQ 18
Pay no attention to stockpiling resources, just train your ships. Wait with starting the event until we gather all the info. Just focus on improving your fleet.
Don't use buckets.
Do PvP, it's great source of exp. Don't be scared of losing, it doesn't affect anything and still gives a lot of exp.

>>16474873
What's the point of keeping more than one or at most two farming pairs?

>>16474869
Resources don't matter, it's strong ships that matter. Just look at this madman >>16474817

>>16474877
Rotation when doing 4-3 grinding.

What kind of chocolate did Kaga make for you?

>>16474885
I hope it's mint dark chocolate. I like mint.

>>16474863
Save your buckets, so better hit that Expedition 2 frequently. What do you have for ships?

>>16474872
Just like Hamakaze's, they protect their chocolate and its cute. Also very nice legs.

>>16474885
>make
It was store bought.

>>16474885
Heart-shaped. Probably with some refreshing filling.

>>16474885
Plain chocolate, the plainest you can ever think of.

>>16474717
>round fucking box
>that expression
This is clearly autism and doesn't love you.

>>16474862
Also you can't really blame me for not knowing that not buying docks was the most efficient way to craft Maruyu. That info didn't come out until the Vita datamine, almost 3 years after I maxed my construction docks.

>>16474876
Alright good.that is pretty much what I am doing right now
>>16474889
Will do, and pic related is current 1nd and 2nd fleets. I also have a lvl 20 Hatsushimo, I needed a 2nd Light Cruiser for one of the expedition requirements though so she was temporarily switched out. Gonna start farming Expedition 2 right after.

>>16474909
No, the hair twirl means she's nervous and in love with you.

>>16474909
The blush, averted gaze, and hair twirl say otherwise.

>>16474909
>autism
That explains a lot.

>>16474885
Potassium cyanide filled one.

>>16474915
Use second fleet for expeditions 24/7. At your level it would be the best to spam ex5. Try to unlock third fleet ASAP and use third fleet to unlock expedition 21.

You shouldn't do ex2 right now, you need both fuel and ammo to train your ships. Ex5 is the best expedition in the game.

Don't craft ships except 250/30/200/30 for dailies.

Abuse 1-5 first three nodes for easy exp on DDs/CLs.

>>16474915
Shit, it seems you are too new, hopefully the event is easy enough on easy since it's small. What you can do is farm the event maps and hopefully jump start getting the rare girls.

I'm so tempted to marry Kaga

>>16474961
Do it. She's wonderful.

>>16474921
>>16474919
>>16474918
>>16474909
It's not like it matters. I would reject her for finding her ugly.

>>16474915
>>16474939
Actually, with some effort, he could clear E1 Easy and farm some shit there.

>>16474984
Not if it's a sub map and he has no sonars.

Thank you for all the advice
>>16474935
>>16474939
I am trying for my 3rd fleet but I am having trouble getting Sendai for the quest, I have the other two sisters though.
>>16474984
By effort do you mean me leveling my ships in general or leveling a 1 CL 5 DD fleet? I don't plan on doing well in the events, just want to be able to farm some stuff

>>16474977
I will scrap Kaga the moment another carrier shows up. Her usefulness has been exhausted.

>>16474717
Is it just me, or is Shibafu getting worse?

>>16474989
>>16474989
I have a single I-58 if that helps at all. But no sonars just yet

>>16474984
Depends on the map and his amount of free time, really.
I started playing 16 days before Kon and managed to clear E3 on medium but I imagine it could have been harder if there was some SS Hime or installation map early on.

>>16474993
If you have cleared 2-3, just set up a camp on 2-4-A and train your big ships there while small ones safely level up on 1-5. Sendai should appear soon enough.

>>16475031
Subs can't sink subs.

>>16475031
10/30/10/31

>>16474913
That is not true.
You are supposed to always keep 1dock occupied when you craft.
Basically, you can just do 4min LSC/day.
Dock1 - busy
Craft in Dock2.
Then flame dock1 and construct in dock1 while dock is busy. Just continue on like this.

In your case you just need to occupy 3docks while you craft.

>>16475039
Ah sorry thought you meant the sortie requires a sub in your fleet
>>16475040
I'll start trying now, thank you

>>16475045
You do know that docks with completed timers count as empty docks for the purpose of rolling for crafts, right?

>>16474752
This actually looks like a nice place.

>>16475053
Use submarine flagship when crafting sonars, it will save a tiny bit of your devmats.

I thought she's a rare result.

>>16475090
>original gumos
>rare

Why is she looking at me like this?

>>16475090
>>16475094
That's a Kagerou.

>gumo
Please stop, I beg you.

>>16475096
This artist creeps me out. They all have the same sinister face, sometimes with mean words.

>>16475096
You know why.

>>16475112
It's just an accurate portrayal of how women react to you

>>16475134
>sometimes with mean words.

Excellent.

>>16475141
shit
>>16475112

>>16475134
>It's just an accurate portrayal of how everyone reacts to you
Fixed.

>>16475096
What a terrible looking face. Perfect for the whore.

It's gonna suck when Tanaka starts to sneak in more... "plot" in those walls of text.

>>16475431
I hope he adds hints to the next event in these.

>>16475356
It's the class Yuu kum on.

It sucks when you can't appreciate the scrolls because you can't read japanese.

>>16475474
You've had since IBS to learn it. You have no one to blame but yourself.

I know it's kind of weird asking this, but did anyone ever attempt to make a viewer for KC Android? I know KC3k say they won't. Any Japanese people bother doing it?

>>16475490
Gooks are doing it but it's in gook, so it's garbage by default.

>>16475474
A lot are garbage, some is just the server, the others apology scrolls.

Today's her birthday: say something nice about her.

>>16475490
>>16475491
I just noticed that kcanotify is in English now.
Pretty barebone, but should be enough to prevent you accidentally sinking your ships.

Are you going to take responsibility anon?

To access kc data, else no viewer could display any info about your fleets.

Have you guys decided which PVP mode is the best? I've been using #2 exclusively, since I keep missing the opportunity to switch

>>16475587
First.

>>16475592
Yeah I thought so too. I guess I'll switch at 3

what is the best way to get a 12cm gun? should I try to farm a mutsuki from 1-1 or try to make one?

Kisaragi > Arashio

>>16475605
No doubt.

>>16475604
Probably Mutsukis. I got lucky; hadn't stripped the default equipment off of Harukaze and Asakaze yet, so I had just enough.

>>16475604
All of World 1 shits out most Mutuski. 30x4 recipe might also give it to you. I'd got for the former.

>>16475604
Why do you need 12cm guns?

That was fast

>>16475584
I was under the impression that the others pulled data just by reading the information that passes through, without requiring another layer of network in order to read that data.

I'm not really too fussed about it, since most of that data will be game data and not user/password data or billing information, but AFAIK none of the others need a separate VPN in order to function, unless this is an Android-specific problem.

>>16475640
The Obi is wrong.

>>16475640
Asian skin with blonde hair looks so bad.

>>16475636
Not him, but you need two for the new Furniture Fairy conversion quest.

At what time do ranking rewards usually get given out?

need more bullet
which expedition i need to do?

>>16475683
Like 4 or 5 hours from now. That would be Evening in Japan.

>>16475698
spamming expeditions 2, 5, 21 is what I do when I need bullet.

>>16475699
I'll still be awake then, thanks.

>>16475342
They technically may not be sisters, but Akigumo still made Kazagumo a mask.

I like this guy.

>>16475715
Mamiko Noto bote.

>>16475356
夕雲型＝Yuukumo class
wat wrong with this?

https://exhentai.org/g/1022897/90fde355e8/
Yodo love.

Gumofags are so based, somebody already recreated the mask.

>>16475719
It's Yuugumo, not Yuukumo.

>>16475719
It's "Yuugumo".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendaku

For anyone expecting this to be the reward, it's very doubtful that it will be since it doesn't give any hints about what the theme of the even will be, which is something the devs mentioned the reward would do.

>>16475762
USN DD equipment.

I can dream, right?

>>16475762
As the person who posted that picture last thread, I just thought it would be funny. Plus it's ID was replaced by one of the jets which indicates that it was a mistake.

>>16475768
It would be funny but at this point I'm leaning more towards them giving the wrong plane request to Fujikawa and not noticing until it was put in the game. Wouldn't be surprised if that was why EOs were delayed, to take it off the reward list.

>>16475775
As I said last thread as well they probably mixed up SB2C with SB2U as there is only one alphanumeric difference between them.

Considering SB2Cs were never used in combat by Sara, adding it as a reward makes sense.

>yfw the rewards are punchholes and repair goddess.

Does /jp/ know every single ships name from their art?

>>16475754
Japanese language sure is hard

>>16475775
What a shame, the fairy looked good too.

Why wouldn't you?

>>16475736
>takes place at the admiral office

I unironically miss straight shimakaze doujins

>>16475828

How hard was the 5-5 Arashio quest?

It´s pretty easy tho

>>16476347
A rank, so not too bad.

You guys ready for regenerating enemy health kai!?

WELL

Mediocre stats, this zuiun is shit

>>16476380
>>16476384
They did say yesterday that the stats wouldn't be good.

>>16476347
easy

>>16476384
>less AA than the vanilla zuiun
What did Tanaka mean by this?

>>16476389
I have all the ships in your picture but no Taihou, can Kaga be the substitute?

>>16476395
Based on the color it's a training unit.

>>16476398
No, take Zuikaku Kai 2A.

>>16476398
Do you 5-5? its just do it again but with 2 DD its not complicated

>>16476398
Use Sara

>>16476380
the fairy looks like mexican potato sub. some kind of submarine operation confirmed I guess? I wonder if it's worth missing out on 3 days of expeditions to send taigei back for the second 8 tube torpedo launcher now.

>>16476331
No, that was specifically dive bombers, this time its Zuiun.

So is I-13 confirmed?

>>16476411
Not everyone has Saratoga though...

>>16476455
the fairy is cute

>>16476473
Everyone that's doing this quest should.

I-400 its gonna be a reward or drop in winter?

>>16476484
Seiran Air Group soon. the Shioi fairy is taking notes.

SSV event?

What are the odds of Yura getting Kai Ni at some point?

>>16476633
100% as time approaches infinity.

>>16476455
Too bad it's just ranking reward. If it was quest reward, I'd think we will have a substantial chance of getting a quest chain to convert it to Seiran-equipped 634th Air Group. And then bomb the panama canal.

>>16476633
last year we dun have many Kai Ni bcuz they got movie to do

>>16476685
Game artists didn't do shit for the movie though.

>>16476633

Don't hold yura breath.

>>16476651

It's probably the E1 reward. Maybe there'll be an event quest to upgrade it.

>>16476719
but Tanaka is busy

Is it true that there's only 1 new ship in the upcoming event?

If all we're getting is a trophy DD without any actual use,
then I'll just kuso and purely farm for ships I don't have. Whether I actually clear the event doesn't matter.

Well, unless the equipment prizes are good I guess.

>>16476821
>Is it true that there's only 1 new ship in the upcoming event?

>>16476821
Yes and it will get the remaining fourth Kai Ni of this year.

>>16476838
Fuck this shit, I'm running a fleet here, not a DD nursery!


Though I can't exactly blame Tanaka here, IJN's got a shitload of DDs.

>>16476856
DDs are the best.

>>16476805
Tanaka is a fag, who needs him anyway.

hey guys, I started during the last week of the fall event and was wondering if i had what it took for a medium clear. I think Im good on planes and guns but not sure about levels and ship types 70k/90k/59k/47k 574buckets

>>16476856
Nobody forces him to push all of them into the fucking game, though. But it's not like anyone expects at least mediocre design in a glorified chink flash boatcollecting single player online dice rolling simulator.

>>16476932
in case Im wrong

>>16476932
Let's start with the critical question: what's your HQ level?

>>16476946
84, it inflated a bit while doing 1-5

>>16476932
>70k/90k/59k/47k 574buckets
Too much resources. Not sure what you are doing when you should be collecting the botes. You are wasting your passive resource regen when you can be trying for LSC everyday.

It is a small event m8

>>16476958
im at 86 atm most of which are 40+
no good?

>>16476932
You should have spent those resources on training your fleet. Holy shit, they're weak. Especially DDs, what were you doing?

Could be enough for medium though if the event isn't too hard.

>>16476963
You should have ~ten DD/CL Kai Ni before reaching HQ80 if you were doing 1-5.

>>16476965
i dont actually know how it happened myself around the time it hit 50 it started jumping, im assuming too many boss nodes

ill start throwing my dds into pvp while i lvl Ooi

Kisaragi is too hot for her own good.

>>16476963
You have no Zuizui.
No good BB like Biscuit.
Abucute isnt even K2.
You fell for the idlecolle meme with such a shit fleet.

>>16476977
>Bisshitter
>good
For nothing.

>>16476977
Zuizui and especially Bisko aren't needed at all.

>>16476990
Cranes is strongest CV
why not

Thanks Tanaka, for making PvP great again.

welp

>>16477070
Because other CVs are strong enough. Zui is only required later on and that guy is still a beginner. I bet he won't even be able to do the catapult quests over next month and Cranes before Kai Ni are the worst carriers (Aquila not counted).

>>16476977
>tfw idlecolle is only works with old players but new shits will fall for it because they're stupid

>>16477087
>beginner
>70k fuel
He is just an idiot

>>16477079
Taihou saved this shit taste faggot

>>16476938
It's a game about the IJN first and foremost, not having them defeats the purpose. If you're playing for the foreign ships, you might as well fuck off to chinkcolle or the tumblr game if it ever releases.

>>16476830
The last time we had an I-400 class sub introduced in an event, she was the only new girl.

>>16477100
And who the fuck said I wanted foreign ships? Fat faggot might as well start adding dozens of subs every update.

>>16477100

>Still mad about foreign ships

I came back after leaving Kancolle for a year when I heard Iowa was going to be included in the game. And better yet, we are going to get even more allied ships from now on

>>16477093
His fleet is that of someone who has been playing for a month. I realize he's probably been at it for much longer but I treat him only by what he's showing.

>>16477115
Why are you blogposting about taking a hiatus from some ripoff game?

>>16477100
It's about variety really.
Getting DD after DD gets boring y'know.

And there's only so many slots you can have (unless you're willing to shill out more dosh just to buy slots), you might as well spend them on something more useful than new DDs that you probably won't use anyways.

It pains me to decide whether to keep or scrap those trophy DDs, especially when you're not sure if they'll get unique quests/kai2/routing requirements that justifies not scrapping them.

>>16477138
>It pains me to decide whether to keep or scrap those trophy DDs, especially when you're not sure if they'll get unique quests/kai2/routing requirements that justifies not scrapping them.
Not really. 100 slotters get by just collecting the elites. If some trophy ship gets kai 2 the devs are sure to make them farmable so they can just farm it. Routing requirements? Just bruteforce. Unique quests are probably the hardest to deal with, but the devs are not likely to make them that difficult to get either, at least not these days.

>>16477095
Fubuki is great!

>>16476932
get abukuma to k2 and akashi to 35 at least

>>16477169
k, thanks going to get to work on that now. btw is there a way to grind dds and cls for more that 180xp a battle besides 4-3?

>>16477180
5-1.

>>16477187
thanks again

>>16477187
How is 5-1 superior to 4-3? More exp for DDs in the whole fleet? Though I do like 4-3 for leveling CVs and CAs.

Another new guy here, why would I need to level DDs? They're useless. And what's so special about Abukuma?
Also, how the hell am I supposed the clear 5-3? I need to know everything, both fleet composition and equipment. Because I can't into proper equipment.

>>16477204
You can only train one DD on 4-3. You can train 6DDs on 5-1. 5-1 gives more than double the total exp to DDs than 4-3 while being much cheaper.

>>16477210
Because DDs are the most useful class. Abukuma is the strongest CL.

>5-3
Sparkled 5DD1CL, DDs yasen combat, CL T3 ASW + night scout.

>>16477210
Opening anti-sub attack, kai 2s like Yuudachi. Abukuma is the only CL that can equip midget subs.

You clear 5-3 either with surface fleet or with all subs. If you're evil enough you can use 4 SS 2 fodder DD.

As for equipment it differs depending on setup. For example subs should be at least kai and equipping 2 torps.

>>16477219
>>16477217
Ok, got it.

>>16477210
Abukuma has a super special snowflake ability to carry a Minisub like a CLT despite being classed as a CL.

DDs are important because shiplocking, night battles, and transport maps. Also ASW.

I don't have my 5-3 clear on hand, but eventually the wiki setups (some of them) work.

>>16477224
>eventually
You mean evidently?

>>16476240
None of the I-400 class ever left Japanese waters, dipshit.

>>16476932
Off the top of my head:
- Abukuma to 75 for opening torp
- Ooshio/Arashio to k2 for a solid tank carrier
- Shigure to k2 or get a beaver for TCI DD
- K2 at least one of both BBs and CVLs
After that there's only hoping you'll be fine. Medium is inconsistent as fuck though, aim for hard where you can and drop to easy if you have to, just check the rewards beforehand and plan accordingly.

>>16477263
>Ooshio/Arashio to k2 for a solid tank carrier

There's a 100% chance he doesn't have Tanks.

>>16477210
If it's that meme yasen map, I just took 2FBB2CA and something, and all went smoothly.

>>16477115
I meant EVERY foreign ship, they are the guests.

>>16477269
Then just high FP DD like Poi.

I hope we don't get another Shitbafu sub.

>>16477303
Maybe the next sub will be Yoshinori.

>>16477263
>>16477269
Maybe not a tank carrier, but he can certainly consider a daihatsu carrier. For new players, 2 guns + daihatsu is usually enough.

And in this case, Arashio > Ooshio > Kasumi > Bep > Asashio > Kisaragi > Mutsuki > Satsuki.

>>16477312
Except for the Ooshio and Arashio needing a bp. For new players, right?

>>16477318
Well they also give a daihatsu. I'm not sure the one from Abukuma is enough if they can't procure another one from Akitsu Maru or something.

>>16477325
You don't really need daihatsu and you can get some from quests (like Asashio quest).

>>16477333
Pretty sure you do against installations. And I know some quests give them but new players will actually need time to unlock them first.

>>16477325

There's also a decent chance of the first map giving a free Daihatsu again.

>>16477357
From what I gathered daihatsu aren't very effective vs installations. I think even if you had a dozen daihatsu you would still be betting on your lone CA(V) to kill the boss.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I always used the tank so never had a chance to experience extent of normal daihatsu's power.

>Zuiun reward
>On Hyuuga's birthday

How appropriate.

>>16477428
It will be the best if she can't equip it.

>>16477187
> 5-1
My fuel, my beautiful fuel!

>>16477443

Use more radars.

>>16477444
Surface? I have only one. Or air ones are good too?

>>16477461
Both work.

If Vita is to be believed, radars don't seem to increase ASW accuracy anyway.

>>16477443
When you're using only DDs it isn't that much anyway.

>>16474872
Is Kinugasa pure?

>>16477532
No. Same for all other kanmusu.

>>16477532

She's the greatest combination of cuteness, beauty and sexyness this game have had and probably will ever have.

>Admiral, could you please think of an operation where I can actually play an active role. Seriously, I'm begging you!

Is it time?

>>16477560
For passionate night battle with 401? It's always time.

>>16477558
She's boring and weak.

>>16477558
>no mention of whether she's pure or not
Really makes you think.

>>16477569
All Fujikawafags share her because other girls from this artist are even less attractive.

>>16477583
Akashi is better than Gasa.

>>16477583
>other girls from this artist are even less attractive
Wow, kys faggot.

>>16477567
>weak
Arguable. She's a good eco CA.
>boring
No.

Yes.

>>16477583
Yuugumo is very attractive. Besides pretty much all artists these days are better than Shitbafu.

>>16477625
>that shitty looking buzzer
No.

>>16477560
No. And tell her to get drawn aby another official artist.

>>16477629
>all artists

>>16477637
Still better than that Houshou with a tumor for an ear.

>>16477637
If you unironically prefer a potato over this, then you have shit taste.

>>16477637
That's still better than the shit that Shibafu's been churning out lately.

>>16477629
I think she would be way more attractive if she was drawn by someone else. She certainly has a lot of potential.

>>16477629
I think I'll still take potato over Ayakis shit. But he hasn't done anything in over a year so who knows if he got better or worse.

>>16477583
DDs are for being cute, not attractive

>>16477644
No, it isn't. Shibafu's art looks like it was drawn by five year old with too big paint tool. Rikka however created a detailed monstrous abomination.

>>16477660
DDs are for fapping to.

>>16477660
But DDs are the most attractive ships.

>>16477643
Are you kidding me? Shibafu is a lazy fuck, but at least he knows where to put shading, how to keep clothes shape reslistic, how to avoid awkward poses. His art would look very good if he put just a little bit more time and effort into making it.
If YOU unironically think shibafu is worse than this amateur, then you just blindly hate him.

>>16477654
Ayaki was always at least better that Potato. It's his design choices that look more out of place or weird compared to others that can be considered a flaw, but definitely not the quality.

>>16477654
I will take Ayaki over potato any day of the week.

>>16477669
It's unfortunate that everytime you see a Fusou-class seasonal, it's easily visible that Rikka goes through some form of improvement, but at the same time proportions, poses and rig placement choices feel like he/she have no idea on how to make it work.

What ships and equip should I use for 5-1 to level up DD?

>>16477716
5DD, 1Cl, ASW setup, obvious enough.

>>16477653
Someone like Shibafu?

>>16477722
All the ships with sonars and DC?

>>16477746
Yes, and as >>16477443 suggested, my CL is loaded with radars.

so anyone got some good recipes for Zara LSC?

>>16477736
Someone like Ichiso.

>>16477760
How about no. Yamakaze is an abomination.

>>16477789
But Shiggy is the best looking destroyer in the game.

>>16477736
Shibafu doesn't really focus on attractiveness.

Checking with the list of artists:
bob, drew, konishi, kujo ichiso, kusada souta, parsley, fumikane, yoshinori sound like good options. Jiji, kuuro kuro and UGUME as well but to a smaller degree.
I'm not saying they would definitely be able to do it but I'd like to see their attempts.

>>16477801
That's only for fanart.

>>16477801
I do like the K2s of her and Poi dog but the problem is that Ichiso recently has been trying to make everyone look like them.

>>16477304
Yoshinori is being reserved for the burger subs.

>>16477828
I think he just slipped into a certain way of drawing (like Shibafu, but not as bad).

>>16477832
Why burger subs are full of fish?

>>16477848
How dare you to compare Kujo Ichiso to Shitbafu? One makes the cutest and pretest sprites while the other shits out fucking potatos.

>>16477864
Because American subs at that time were named after fish.

>>16477864
Because chink logic and because >>16477888

>>16477828
As someone pointed out a thread or two ago, even sprites people like have plenty of issues themselves so he really isn't that good of an artist. Him copying and pasting character profiles is just one major issue.

>>16477887
Just making an observation. I didn't intend to insult either of them since I like ships from both artists.

Nips think the new Zuiun air group will transfer into a Seiran air group with a sub reward, either I-400, 13 or 14. If you believe the next sub being by Yoshinori, it's not going to be I-400 because the series was started by Shibafu, but rather I-13 or 14 and the event is not Panama Canal, so I don't know what map. The other rewards were the sonar, land-based planes and submarine torpedoes, so it's highly likely sub fleets and ASW will be used.

>>16477887
>liking Kuso Ichishit
Fuck off wikiashitter.

>>16477907
Reminder that Nimu isn't drawn by Syobon despite being Iku's sister.

Wow, potato hate is really picking up momentum, I feel like it wasn't really that long ago that main shitposting was about ichiso, and now he actually ranks above shibafu here.

>>16477917
We've already been over this.
The only major, and i repeat "ONLY MAJOR", flaw with Kusos ships is the sameface. In general, his art is above average at worst.

>>16477937
This is less potato hate and more "the other artists are better", and in some cases, a lot.

>>16477945
>Kujo Ichiso
>Major flaws
No, fuck off. Shiggy is perfect.

>>16477954
Good job reading only the first sentence.

>>16477954
I don't know who's baiting who anymore.

>>16477937
Because Shibafu is just getting worse and worse while Ichiso is still the same like his faces.
