File:SES2022_01.png|(1/5) While close to 80% of survey participants cleared the event, there has been a significant amount of people who have not reached their own set goals for this event (35%). The [https://www.reddit.com/r/kancolle/comments/y3lims/news_the_final_official_cleared_rate_difficulty/ official clear rate] this Event was said to be 71% this event, so keep a surveybase with higher engagement than the regular playerbase in mind when reading this evaluation.

File:SES2022_06.png|(3/5)The rewards were mostly perceived as adequate, except for E1 being perceived as too much effort for them. Furthermore, survey participants choosing lower difficulties on E3 and E6 were more inclined to be unsatisfied with the rewards given.

File:SES2022_07.png|(4/5)Friend FLeets have been used by the majority of players, most noteably starting from xx. A good portion of E6 hard mode players would forgo Friend Fleets entirely and clear the event without them instead.

File:SES2022_X.png|(1/3) Without a doubt, Ranger has won over most admirals with her aesthetics (praise the [[Michishio|Buns]]). There was no close second, the only outlier for the remaining ships is Natsugumo being about half as popular as the rest.

File:SES2022_X.png|(2/3) When it came to assessing the usefulness in upcoming content, it is mostly an even split between Ranger and Langley, with a strong third place by Massachusetts. In retrospect, the options "can't decide" and "none" should have been split in this question, as it was the second most commonly picked answer with both parts of it meaning widely different things.

File:SES2022_X.png|(1/1) Ranger, we meet again. Her abyssal form also won over the most, this time however with the Incomplete Battleship Princess being a close second.

File:SES2022_X.png|(1/4) The Yamato-Class special attack would be the favoured one used in this phase, with pretty much all who did medium and above choosing it, with the Nagato-Class being a distant second.

File:SES2022_X.png|(2/4) Unsurprisingly this trend would continue onto E5 as it shared the same lock, although hard mode admirals would choose non-Yamato-class more often (but still rarely) here.

File:SES2022_X.png|(3/4) The final boss would almost equally be handled by Yamato and the Nagato-class Special attack with Nelson being a distant second. There has been a non-insignificant portion of hard mode admirals on this map that utilized a duplicate Yamato to clear this phase (While not specifically asked for in the survey, this data has been obtained by filtering for survey participants who selected H on E6 and already used Yamato on E5)
