===Behind the Design===
[[Konishi]] has noted in the artist interview in the Mel Febri Magazine released back in December 2013 that while he was working on the designs of Shoukaku and [[Zuikaku]], both girls were originally design with an identical design as if they were almost twins based upon thier appearance. However, he was not satisfied with how they appeared and chose to redesign both of the ship girls before they were released for the [[Spring 2013 Event]]. In the end Konishi was able to finish and finalize the design of the Shoukaku and [[Zuikaku]] that players know today on '''May 16th, 2013''', one day before the [[Spring 2013 Event]] was released.
