Briefing

Newly-assigned Fubuki arrives at a naval base & is interrupted during a tour to sortie against a mysterious enemy.

Official Details parsed machine translation
「It's Fubuki! With Regards!」

Ship girls are those whom possess souls of ships from days past. Now, at a naval base that is assigned such girls, Special Type Destroyer Fubuki arrives.

Along with her roommates Mutsuki & Yuudachi, she tours the First Carrier Division's training grounds, where she cannot not look away from Aircraft Carrier Akagi's awe-inspiring figure.

Akagi's words - "I hope we can fight in the same fleet someday" - cause Fubuki's heart to throb.


Strategy

Spoilers

Strategy

Within the water, a recitation of the Gosei is heard.

As the setting is described, an Abyssal fleet, Fleet Zero, is shown. Along with a palette shift, a it morphs into Fleet One & is then engaged by a naval base's Fourth Fleet. The naval base is in search of the Abyssal's base.

A newly-assigned & now arrived Fubuki procedes inside the main building, is taken on a tour, one stop being a shared room & meeting the rest of the Third Torpedo Squadron.

A fight scene interrupts, with the result being the base is located & the Fourth Fleet is ordered to return.

Back at the base, Mutsuki, Yuudachi, & Fubuki share their combat experience, with Fubuki providing an odd answer. She's saved by a trip to the to the famous First Carrier Division. Akagi's words strike a chord within Fubuki, especially the hope to be in the same fleet.

The next stop is Cafe Mamiya, but before they get to fully enjoy, a siren activates, notifying them & others.

At the port, the Third Torpedo Squadron, the First (Carrier) Task Force, & the Second Support Fleet are briefed as the Fourth Fleet rests in the docks.

Troubles arise when it is revealed Fubuki has no experience, but with coaxing from the others, she pushes on. They encounter Fleet Two, with Second Support Fleet soon engaging as well.

Suddenly, Fubuki is ambushed by a Fleet Three Destroyer I-Class Elite Late Model, but before it can damage her the Second Fleet's air wing strikes. With the Second Support Fleet's assistance, Akagi's third wave wraps it up.

As the day comes to a close, Fubuki is left somber; however, the admiral takes time now to step in & reinvigorate Fubuki, sending her back to her fleet as they wind down from the day. Fubuki really idolizes Akagi & wants to be her escort.

Results

Damaged

Sunk



Notes

The episode composition is an info-dump

  • Possibly utilizes short scenes & one-liners to add as many kanmusu & animate as many game aspects as possible.
  • As of January 8th, 2015, there are 147 kanmusu.

Certain seiyuu have multiple roles

  • As can be observed in the credits

Gosei is read by Mdm Sakakibara (?)

These reflections were originally devised by Vice Admiral Hajime Matsushita,
who was the Chief of the Imperial Japanese Naval Academy.
Every evening cadets are expected to meditate on these inter-related questions.
  1. Hast thou not gone against sincerity
  2. Hast thou not felt ashamed of thy words and deeds
  3. Hast thou not lacked vigor
  4. Hast thou exerted all possible efforts
  5. Hast thou not become slothful


Mutsuki implies that there are multiple bases

  • According to English subtitles, anyways

Naka is advertising her first live

  • It seems she is relatively new or has only recently set being an idol as a goal

The CM outro is a Shibafu Fubuki illustration

Most duties are handled by the Secretary Ship

Etch our victory into the sunrise!

  • Possibly a IJN motto?

No arrogance!

  • It is a running theme in the second half, as well as a oft used line of Akagi's
  • A speculation, but perhaps a reference to a common belief regarding the IJN's loss of momentum in WWII

Only Kongou is Kai Ni.

Fighters have enough gun & cannon firepower to deflect destroyers

  • Unlike the game, much less reality

Arrows transmogrify in a yellow aura after shooting into aircraft

The basic Kongou Class armaments can fire in the X-form or compact form.



Trivia

Lazy Yuudachi & her bear~

Plain Fubuki confirmed~ by all she encounters~

A snazzy launch sequence that is similar to Bubblegum Crash & Starcraft, among others.

Fairies are in the planes rather than on. It's possibly the same for equipment.

Drinking Game Counts

+1 Burning Love!

+2 Ossois

+18 Pois

+2 Yasens

+1 Khorosho

+2 Teitoku scenes

Without Dissent, Without Shame, Without Regret! 悖らず、恥じず、憾まず! Motorazu、Hajizu、Uramazu! Hanada Jukki Kusakawa Keizou Amano Syouta Ide Naomi, Matsumoto Mayuko January 15th, 2015

Briefing

With the revelation Fubuki is inexperienced, her crash course begins. An unexpected amount of 'help' is offered, but an encounter re-energizes her in time for two make-or-break moments.


Official Details rough translation
「It would be wonderful if I could protect everyone like that, too....」

So says Fubuki, whom has safely returned from her first sortie.

With admiration of Akagi & the other aircraft carriers' actions during the battle, Fubuki plans to one day be a part the same fleet. However, at her current ability, whether she would even be able to sortie is uncertain.

One after another, the Sendai-class cruisers call out to Fubuki, who begins her special training immediately.


Strategy

Absolute Spoilers

Strategy

In the early morning, Fubuki starts additional training. During classes, Yuudachi's laziness results in trouble, but Fubuki shares her smarts....which makes it a wonder why she has issues in her practicals. Fubuki is left with determination.

In Mamiya's Cafe, Mutsuki tries to cheer Fubuki up, though Yuudachi is blunt. Fubuki's idol-worship of Akagi leads to a trip to the docks to ask Akagi for advice. The power of the docks is illustrated, while Akagi is saved from a lengthy bath by an instant repair bucket. They spend some time together.

At night, Sendai interrupts Fubuki's sleep for extra training. She's followed by Jintsuu in the morning. After classes, Naka grabs her for an idol sess....attempt to gain Kitakami's assistance.

Before the cycle repeats that night, Mutsuki lays down the law, allowing Sendai, Jintsuu, & Naka realize what's been happening. However, Mutsuki is briefed on the situation. In the end, Fubuki has taken the decision into her own hands, continuing extra training. The Third Torpedo Squadron has her back. The days pass & Fubuki's tenacity impresses Kitakami into tutoring.

During the determining exercise, although Fubuki is still not at combat readiness, her torpedo girl's creed impresses Nagato enough to allow her into the operation.



Participants

Naval Base

  • Destroyers: Mutsuki, Kisaragi, Yayoi, Mochizuki, Fubuki, Akatsuki, Hibiki, Ikazuchi, Inazuma, Shiratsuyu, Shigure, Murasame, Yuudachi, Samidare, Asashio, Ooshio, Kagerou, Shimakaze

Notes

Evidently, this holds true: In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not. — Albert Einstein

Akagi initially had a 015:30:45 second repair time

The CM outro is a bob Sendai, Naka, Jintsuu illustration

Without Dissent, Without Shame, Without Regret!

  • It seems to be an idiom derived from the Gosei (the Gosei in full)
  • It, as the title, is repeated many times
  • It was translated differently by different people, & even by the same group (Crunchyroll)
    • Don't be Bad, Don't be Ashamed, Don't Slack! into Without Dissent, Without Shame, Without Resentment!
    • Don't go against, don't feel ashamed, & do exert all possible effort!
  • In Japan, 憤り means resentment & 憾み is regret. Given Fubuki's steadfastness, it is better to use 'regret'. Via 153.192.11.140 1 & 153.192.11.140 2

All of the kanmusu without lines had static character frames

  • Kako, Mochizuki, & Yayoi vanish vanish by the end of the idol session

First Love Torpedo Squadron

  • Seiyuu: Sa....nevermind

Apparently, a kanmusu's mental state can result in sinking

Endless squats in bloomers!

Fubuki has 'the soul of a torpedo girl'

  • It is perhaps better interpreted as a 'torpedo girl's creed




Trivia

20 Pois (plus 3 Ashigara pois)

1 Spoilt [Inazuma] making

3 Nanodesus

3 Ladys

1 Khorosho

2 Oichiis

1 Teitoku scene

  • Which is from their perspective

1 Farewell, Pride!

Instant repair buckets are, this episode, better than this image or this image, yet luckily, did not result in this image

Um, Admiral? Is it mealti-No! Is it time to start the operation yet!?




Observations

60.240.224.113 on visual discrepancies 1
....

But then again, maybe this is over analysing things. The image only appears for a few frames and in most of them the image is really hard to see. On top of that, the shipgirls have a scale that weighs in kilotons (http://imgur.com/Fsq3YqM) but Fubuki manages to balance on top of two baseballs without crushing them (http://imgur.com/ETmXPqC) and walks on sand without making any footprints (http://imgur.com/Xn3saPs). OVERTHINKING MOE ANIMU

http://imgur.com/GMMnEI0 Fubuki isn't in pain because her right hand is slightly stretched, or because Naka's microphone disappears for several frames, she's in pain because several bricks in the background are slightly longer than they should be.

60.240.224.113 on visual discrepancies 2
I don't know how short you thought she was, but she's only a bit taller than Yuudachi according to this shot (http://imgur.com/YC5alTR).

On a height related note: Fubuki and Nagato's heights compared against the Admiral's door (http://imgur.com/LDkrWX2,atfWV50,Dy90gta#0)

Since we're measuring height we'll just break the door up into 3 sections based on the pattern; the bottom rectangle, the middle (longer) rectangle and the top rectangle.

Looking at the first image, Fubuki seems to be just tall enough to have her head reach the bottom of the top rectangle. She would be a little shorted if you moved her back against the door.

Looking at the second image shows you that Nagato is about the same height as Fubuki against the door, however when you look at the third image you notice that Nagato is a fair bit closer to the Admiral than Fubuki was, indicating that if you put Nagato up against the door she would be shorter than Fubuki.

The moral of the story - backgrounds aren't a good height reference.


Before getting rambunctious over the visual discrepancies, remember that TV is mostly the rough & ready version, where a lot of detail is missing. Have a look at Mami's room in Magica Madoka.


This image from a frame in the opening animation may be a burning & capsizing non-kanmusu Akagi.

The W Island Capture Operation! W島攻略作戦! W Tou Kouryaku Sakusen! Yoshino Hiroyuki Tamaki Shingo Tamaki Shingo Honda Mino January 22nd, 2015

Briefing

The preparations for the operation begin & Fubuki is feeling the pressure. A combination of kanmusu help build her confidence & start the operation wonderfully; however, the operation runs into a snag....


Official Details parsed machine translation
「Thank you. I love you. You're wonderful. I'm so happy.... Convey your important feelings to your loved ones.」

After successful exercises & special training, Fubuki is to participate in an operation to capture W Island along with the Third Torpedo Squadron.

To ease the tension & gently soothe Fubuki's anxiety before the sortie, Mutsuki intervenes.

The tenderness of Mutsuki's is a trait endowed from her sister-ship Kisaragi.

The next day, Fubuki, Mutsuki, Kisaragi, & the rest initiate the W Island capture operation.

Strategy

Absolute Spoilers

Strategy

The reason for the impromptu boot camp is elaborated upon - orders from Naval Headquarters. As it is Fubuki's first standard briefing, she is quite nervous with the assembled Third Torpedo Squadron, Fourth Torpedo Squadron, & Secretary Ship with her aide. With the success from sunking Anchorage Hime, measures must be taken to reinforce the adjusted battle lines & push forward. Thus, the W Island is the target.

Fubuki, however, is apprehensive once more. Although various kanmusu cheer her on at Mamiya's Cafe, her urge for last-minute practice persists until Mutsuki intervenes multiple times. Yet, the next morning, Fubuki starts last-second practice anyways, but Mutsuki gains Akagi's assistance. The thoughts & support from her idol are successful & so, the operation begins.

At W Island, the Third Torpedo Squadron launches scouts & take turns on overwatch until nightfall; unfortunately, the plan was not cautious enough & an Abyssal Dive Bomber passes by. Torpedo Squadron One begins their defense & the Third Torpedo Squadron is ordered to scrub the operation. However, Fleet Two blocks their route & the Fourth Torpedo Squadron is called in to delay Torpedo Squadron One. While the Third Torpedo Squadron is able to deal with one carrier, the air wings continue to cause havoc until Second Fleet arrives & wraps things up.

Despite this, while Torpedo Squadron One retreats, a damaged Fleet Two fighter successfully sneak attacks & sinks Kisaragi.

Back at base, the Third Torpedo Squadron returns to much fanfare, & Mutsuki & Fubuki rush off to wait for Kisaragi. Aside, Tone wonders if Jintsuu's hope is crueler.

At 1542, 56 km off W Island's coast, destroyer Kisaragi was sunk by an enemy bomber. The Fourth Torpedo Squadron searched for her without success. (inexact)

Perhaps due to their real life construction, Mutsuki & Kisaragi are characterized with a strong bond

  • Kisaragi occasionally observes how Mutsuki is doing
  • Game-wise, it's only reflected in how they share the same outfit

Due to the above, Mutsuki is carrying on the comfort it has given her by mentoring Fubuki

True shooting, certain hitting (seisha hicchū)

Speculation

217.162.95.62 on BD sales
That's an invalid conclusion drawn from misinterpreting the real meaning of the data. What it shows is merely the ranking positions, which by itself tells us nothing. Kancolle had skyhigh ranking positions for the first week or so (it started off at #1 of all BD sales), so naturally the number of people potentially preordering now is greatly reduced simply through the fact that so many people already preordered.

Then, to take a look at the ranking position change for the day (0:00 to 23:00) of the airing of the anime:

Episode 1: 50 --> 13

Episode 2: 92 --> 60

Episode 3: 134 --> 78

Furthermore, this is only the ranking of the special edition of volume 1, there is also a regular version:

Episode 1: 129 --> 24

Episode 2: 172 --> 101

Episode 3: 331 --> 215

Of course ranking position alone tells us nothing, because it doesn't provide the data on the amount, perhaps the difference between position 1-50 is as big as the gap between 51-1000. The Amazon stalker, from where all this data is, provides an estimation based on points (a point being the equivalent of a unit sold). So, as for the point change on the day of airing:

Episode 1: +232 / +139

Episode 2: +94 / +45

Episode 3: +73 / +29

Sure, the gains are decreasing, but considering the amount of preorders already made, that is something to be expected and not an indicator of episode 3 dropping the hammer on the sales.

Briefing

Although having proved herself, Fubuki has been rattled, among others. However, she is assigned on another sortie. Yet....it does not go quite as planned. From the start, even. (It's absolutely the Teitoku's fault.)


Official Details parsed machine translation
「It's okay, I understand perfectly」

Overwhelming force - the Kongou-class Fast Battleship sisters. They have won over Fubuki.

On the other hand, Mutsuki was still waiting for Kisaragi, whom will not come back. Fubuki tries to encourage her & somehow, while over what words I know not, is incorporated into the Southwest Area Fleet, led by Kongou.

As such, it became that challenge again to fight against the Abyssal Fleet.

Strategy

Absolute Spoilers

Strategy

The day after Operation FS, the Secretary Ship with her aide discuss the prior engagement & plan for the next one in the southwest sea zone.

Elsewhere, destroyer classes for the day have been ineffectual with Kisaragi's loss. Everyone is treading delicately around Mutsuki, whom is the only one acting normal. However, Shimakaze & Fubuki have been summoned for another mission.

Upon learning they've been temporarily assigned with Kongou's fleet, Fubuki begins another idolization session. Unfortunately, the ideal shatters as Kongou charges in & proceeds to be herself, along with the rest of the Kongou class.

The next day, before the mission can begin, a hunt for Shimakaze has to be undertaken as she's quite free-spirited. The first attempt is music, the second attempt is sweetness, & the third attempt is baiting, but the method that draws her is food.

The mission is finally underway & the battleships duke it out while the destroyers skirmish. However, a Ru-Class targets Fubuki, yet before one of the shells hit, Kongou begs to differ. The others buy time for Kongou to console Fubuki's heart & dispel the squall. Kongou & Shimakaze wrap things up.

Mutsuki, whom has been taking Kisaragi's loss poorly, is finally able to grieve with Fubuki utilizing what Kongou has shown her - a hug.

Briefing

Due to the ongoing Operation FS, a fleet reorganization has been announced. Fubuki has been ported with familar, yet unfamilar, kanmusu. Unfortunately, most everyone's personalities do not mesh....


Official Details parsed machine translation
「Reorganization...?」

By the Teitoku's order's, each fleet of the naval base is to be reorganized.

Fubuki of the Third Torpedo Squadron is incorporated into the Fifth Mobile Unit.

Kaga, Zuikaku, Kongou, Kitakami, & Oi......radiate strong idiosyncrasies, but one person puzzled Fubuki. Be that as it may, the selection of this new fleet's flagship causes the kanmusu to violently collide.

Strategy

Absolute Spoilers

Strategy

With the secure of the southwestern resources, the Teitoku abruptly orders a fleet reorganization. The Third Torpedo Squadron is in shock, yet begins to pack up their belongings. Before sleeping, Fubuki & Mutsuki stroll outside to contemplate the recent happenings, but Yuudachi was right behind, followed by Sendai, Jintsuu, & Naka. They end on a cheer by Naka, since Jintsuu's was too serious.

The next day, the whole base is gradually given their reassignments one-by-one in the Teitoku's office. The atmosphere in the hallway is filled with nervousness. Fubuki has been reassigned to the Fifth Mobile Unit while Mutsuki is in the Fourth Fleet. They head off to their new dormitories & at one of the Fifth Mobile Unit's rooms, Fubuki encounters Kitakami & Ooi. Before greetings can be exchanged, Ooi interrupts to usher Fubuki out. Ooi desires a room for Kitakami & herself & as such, directs Fubuki to the unit's other room. Unfortunately, within, Kaga & Zuikaku are not compatible. Fubuki awkwardly exits & runs into Kongou, the last member of their unit. Now that they've gathered, they first attempt to arrange rooms.... It's been slotted for the future.

After classes that day, Fubuki consults Mutsuki & Yuudachi, but they've meshed quite well in their new fleets. At Mamiya's Cafe, Fubuki runs into Akagi & she cannot resist consulting with her once more. In the process, Akagi explains Operation FS. With renewed cheer, Fubuki rushes back to the Fifth Mobile Unit's rooms.

However, it's dashed during the unit's current task - deciding upon the flagship. It's become chaos. To resolve the situation, a round of rotating flagships with the overall MVP being the permanent flagship is settled upon. Kongou starts....& fails spectacularly. Zuikaku's next....& fails spectacularly. It does not improve during Kaga's, Kongou's (second), or Ooi's turns.

As such, with nearly everyone's agreement, Zuikaku decides to request the Fifth Mobile Unit be disbanded & reassigned. However, Fubuki wish-washily disagrees until she's reminded of Akagi. Before she's able to persuade Zuikaku, a convenient emergency arises that somehow only has the Fifth Mobile Unit as responders. Even having lost multiple bases, the Abyssal Fleet is able to assault the mainland itself.

The sortie begins poorly, with Zuikaku & Ooi doing their own thing. Here, Fubuki interjects & goes back to the basics. The engagement initiates with Fubuki as point & taking fire. A Type 21 Zero Fighter then distracts while a Type 97 Torpedo Bomber & Kongou attack. Kitakami & Ooi wrap things up while the others are delt with offscreen.

After returning, Fubuki has been selected as flagship & the rooms have been arranged. However, Kongou is missing her tea time, & Kaga would appreciate her personal space.

Notes

'The soul of a torpedo girl'

  • It is perhaps better interpreted as a 'torpedo girl's creed

The CM outro is a Konishi Shoukaku & Zuikaku illustration

Regarding Operation FS's current status:

  • There are two Abyssal bases in the southwest, relative to the naval base
  • The plan is to split their sea lanes so they can be neutralized in an order
  • The hope is to discover the Abyssal fleet's origins & goals
  • A step the Naval Base is taking is to increase the fleets' flexibility
    • Of which the reorganization is one part


Regarding the flagship rotation:

  • Kongou may be relying upon instinctual communication with her sisters
  • Zuikaku was not able to outrange the Abyssals, or have Kaga follow her orders
  • Kaga is ineffective
  • Ooi relies on instinctual communication with Kitakami while everyone else only protects Kitakami


Destroyers being flagships has happened multiple times

  • Not including the game of course


Fifth Mobile Unit Room assignments

  • Kitakami, Ooi, Kongou

Strategy

The Secretary Ship is ready to sacrifice everything & her aide can only be there for her....

The Sixth Destroyer Division is seen in the docks, washing up. Once again, Anime/Characters#Akagi is there & occupying herself with something to pass the time. Much to Akagi's delight, they are an expedition fleet that have gained excellent bauxite rewards.

Though once done, Akatsuki is displeased about her goal of becoming a lady. They notice a flyer to the yearly Naval Base Curry Tournament & Takao & Atago explain it as they pass by. Naturally, Akatsuki focuses upon the comment of being the number one cook as a shortcut in being a lady. As such, at Mamiya's Cafe she persuades the rest of DesDiv6 to join as well. When they cheer themselves on, Kongou suddenly joins in. Both Ashigara & her won't let the chance slide by either. Though for....differing reasons.

In a kitchen, they begin their practice. However, they are impatient during the stewing & at the construction area, speed it up with....undesirable results. As they reaffirm their commitment, Yuubari helps them with a new pot & Mamiya assists them with ingredients. Their expedition for it fails, though. As they contemplate resigning, Nagato steps in to encourage them.

The competition beings with the teams of Kongou & Hiei, Shoukaku & Zuikaku, Akagi & Kaga, Shimakaze, Ashigara & Haguro, & DesDiv6. The Secretary Ship is the judge. Surprisingly, or unsurprisingly, teams begin to drop out due to self-inflicted sabotage. However, one of the remaining teams lays on a heavy revelation. It takes Nagato to step in once more to reinvigorate DesDiv6 & the audience to continue challenging THE BOSS.

Once the time is up, the Secretary Ship tastes Ashigara & Haguro & DesDiv6 dishes. After a hard decision, DesDiv6 is declared the winner. Everyone has a serving of the winning curry & DesDiv6 has the rest of champions.
