  1. She uses "隊長" which just means "commanding officer" because she was an Army submarine.
  2. She was part of the Imperial Japanese Army.
  3. Upon seeing a Maruyu sub, Kiso's officers asked "So what are you? Are you seriously a submarine?"
  4. Mole transports are Tokyo Express runs made with submarines instead of destroyers.
  5. "Mogu" is a triple pun, the sound of eating, as well as part of 'mogura' (mole) and 'moguru' (to submerge). In this line it sounds like she's singing the 'mogu mogu'.
  6. Due to problems with trim adjustment during her initial trials, her aft would sink while her bow remained afloat and vice versa.
  7. Her top speed was 10 knots (19 km/h) when surfaced and 4 knots (7.4 km/h) when submerged.
  8. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  9. Referring to her trials when she had problems diving.
  10. Referring to her trials where her crew managed to dive properly after some trial and error but appeared to observers from the navy like she sank.
