About the same as people who watched an Akagi (Kancolle) bobble head being placed on deck during a documentary on an actual, moreover active US Carrier...

Gotta love Belfast. Really took over things in the second episode. She is kind of a perfect fit though throw at Enterprise. With Enterprise you have someone that has struggled to find anything for herself outside of combat and recklessly risking it all out there. While Belfast has both embraced her combat role, but also is dedicated to being a maid. Could be good for Enterprise to have someone thrown at her that she doesn't quite know how to deal with.

Good little moments too. Unicorn reaching out to give her thanks was very cute. But also got good moments like Laffey just being Laffey. Be it giving another emotional shake-up for Ayanami to deal with or trying to help out a disconcerted Javelin. She just takes these events as they come at her .

Belfast and Vestal will now proceed to chaining up Enterprise so she doesn't jump into battle again. And then she heals up and joins the final battle.
Joking, but maybe...?

I say, Unicorn's dress being so revealing of what's inside was never so noticeable until the anime, even though it is already revealing in her original artwork.

Next episode will be focused on the Sakura Empire though

The Global version's anniversary of Azur Lane took place on top of Iowa (the ship). It wouldn't be a first.

Fun you say that, depending on how much they react to their hulls taking damage, A-Universe ship girls might actually be extremely vulnerable.
There is an engine part where you can literally throw in a wrench to cause a catastrophic failure of the engines. *
So yeah all they have to do is throw a wrench into her engines until she is properly repaired. Of course Vestal would have to repair that one last then.

At the same time, if someone where to sneak on their hulls, all they had to do is sneaking into engineering and... poof ship defeated.

Well, there is a concept of All-or-Nothing, which revolves around something about how certain parts of the ship can receive damage and the ship can go on fine while other parts cause critical failure. So that makes sense.

Long time since I posted on this website.

Quite enjoying the anime so far, been playing the game for about a year now so its great seeing all the girls and little references.

Enterprise has some serious PTSD, and it cost her. Belfast is pretty observant which is to be expected for a maid of her caliber.

Poor Sandy though perpetual butt monkey, really hope she gets her time to shine like a star, so to speak.

I really like how Clevebro is presented here though.

Laffey is best girl. Loved the line in Ep 2 that was basically "If someone hurts my friend I'll try harder." I like to think its a reference to her Retrofit, Laffey retro is srs business.

Nice to see Nimi not stuck being a camera (also Gridley needs to calm the fuck down with hers in the latest episode). I'm curious if Eugen is going to be the leader for the Iron Blood in the Anime or if Bismarck will show up. They have shown Nagato in the OP so she should show up since she is the leader for the Sakura, so maybe she will

Was kind of surprised that the third episode was a beach episode, also loved that the costumes they wore matched the ones they have in the game.

Lastly, Saratoga butchered - BUTCHERED - Cygnet's fish and chips! That was the greatest crime in this series so far. 0/10 IGN.

Only three episodes and I love it more than Kancolle Anime.
The portrayal of IRL battleships and carrier that lacks in Kancolle presents here ( too bad they are transformed into weapons in battle )

btw is Laffy counterpart of Yuudachi in Kancolle on this game? ( I never play Azur Lane Game )

Laffey, Javelin, Z23, and Ayanami are the starter ships depending on what server you play on. For the English server for example, Ayanami is NOT a starter ship.

Watched episode 3:

Prinz Eugen wants to fight Belfast, but forced to retreat because a large Royal Navy fleet is coming.

Laffey wags off water like a dog.

Queen Elizabeth is so kawaii.

Enterprise is suicidal going into battle when she has no more offensive capabilities, even a siren with one gun can beat her in that situation. Good thing Belfast is there to rescue her.

looking forward to next week!

Enterprise is literally Sousuke Sagara and/or Heero, depending on whats one's références are. Another emotionally stunted strong woman to add to Yui Ishikawa's list, after Mikasa and Violet.

So basically Prince of Walles is practically commander and Enterprise is MC. It would be better if Hiarchy were more obvious, but it might hopefully work. Belfast and Laffey do pretty good job too.

Anyway when I saw that shark fin, first though was it's actually the Architect (from Girls Frontline), but obviously it wasn't the case. Still it would be awesome crossover event
