Overview

These seasonal graphics and voice lines are special in that they are associated with the two events covering the Battle of Leyte Gulf, Fall 2017 and Winter 2018, instead of with actual seasonal occurrences.

The Battle of Leyte Gulf was in many ways the twilight of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Despite being the closest the IJN ever came to fulfilling its grand strategy for a decisive or "final" battle (kantai kessen) with the United States Navy, the Japanese failed at the tactical level in disrupting the American landing operations in Leyte Gulf and at the strategic level in stalling the American advance across the Pacific. Devastated by personnel and materiel losses and low on fuel, the Combined Fleet effectively ceased to exist as an effective fighting force after the battle. The only major naval operation to follow was Operation Ten-Gou, the sacrifice of the Yamato.

As a result, these seasonals tend to reflect a strong desire by the shipgirls to overcome the demons of their pasts. Lines prior to the Fall 2017 event, which centered on the Battle of Surigao Strait, emphasize interactions with members of the Nishimura Fleet. Lines prior to the Winter 2018 event, which will cover more of the Battle of Leyte Gulf as a whole, emphasize preparation by members of the Kurita, Suzuki, and Ozawa Fleets.
