Angry Ooichi porn is the best
Akatsuki is lovely.
>>14516262
That doujin where she's trying to protect Kitakami from TTK is so good, I wish she wasn't a hyper lesbian.
>>14516269
Yes, little girls are lovely.
>>14516269
Lovely daughteru.
I feels like if I really want to go top100 I need to stockpile for 300k first or use money.
>>14516391
Nah top 100 is reasonable to attain, top 20 is where it gets stupid. Which is too bad because that's where the good equipment is.
>>14516391
100 is doable with 90k, top 20 needs all your time and resources, mainly buckets.
I want to go on a date with Urakaze!!
>160 points out of top 100
>did my EOs
maybe next month
I don't know why I insist on doing PVP right away after it refreshes this time of hour, all the nips have their BB/CV heavy fleets out.
>>14516460
I'm curious on how Abyss Jintsuu even sees with the mask on.
>>14515919
I know man. Kept playing dota and WoWs and going out and not going to make top 20.
>>14516671
You have a week.
>>14516671
i played for like 2 hours and i'm already halfway
use your girls
>>14516396
>>14516408
But I think 300k is still needed to get top 100 every months. Even full time expedition cannot catch up the 90k depletion rate.
>>14516750
Why are Twingos so cute, /jp/?
>>14516777
I only do it after events. It's just not possible to maintain top 100 every month without subs or max resources. I stopped doing 5-4 for 5 days just to regain buckets and lost 30 places, these nips are on another level. I'm glad it's almost over so I can do 4-3.
Any updates on what time they're giving out the ranking rewards?
>>14516839
If it's not within an hour, it will be within the week at this same time.
>>14516815

If you don't pay much attention to the fanon and anime interpretation, well, it's not a problem, then.
Guys, is there a compilation of all Kancolle's BGM that have released up until the last event?

I think the reason that one is included in particular is because yuyuvn added some features not present in the other forks.
Are the translations not updated, though? The most recent commit updates the translation reference to 1.0.48 of his translations repository, which has the Kasumi quest and everything.

Is 400 AA needed for 5-5 or can I go lower?
What's a good map for multiple ship leveling? Basically one with decent XP that doesn't place many strains on fleet composition. 5-4 can only work this much.
>>14517675
The PvP map.
>>14517679
A true revelation.
>>14517675
Use 5-1 for ASW-capable ships, PVP for the auxiliaries, 5-4 for the rest. Mixed fleet is never a good idea unless required by routing.
>>14517660
420 minimum.
>>14517727

3-2-A for the rest

There's no point in grinding your waifu like a retard. Natural waifu leveling is a good method of waifu leveling. Hell, I dare to say it's the best method.
>>14517855
I'm with you Anon but variety is interesting. Some nights it's nice to take things slow and steady and just enjoy each other, and sometimes it's fun to grind like crazy until you're both a tired and sloppy mess.

Hasn't it always been 5?

Top 1-5 got two of them, I hope they make them able to get with medals like the other blueprint.

Nope, bots and super NEETs only get to enjoy it.
>>14518307
>top 500
>super NEETs
Nope, like everything hyped by the devs it'll be obtainable even for the scrubbest of scrubs and when it's also in ranking it usually means that will happen in less than a month.
>>14518314
My mistake, I thought only top 100 got the engine.

>>14518345
Except Shiun for whatever reason.
Kai 2 never.
>>14517125
That plane looks like a tuna fish with wings.
>>14518412
Everyone will get a kai 2 sooner or later™.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
>>14517727
You don't need AS+ on first node.
>>14518443
Best Yuugumo.
>>14518443
Underrated gumo, or should I say the whole class is.
>>14518438
We'll be ruled by Tanaka III by the time Aoba gets her Kai 2.
>>14518438
When new ships get added faster than remodels that will never be the case until every WW2 ship is in the game.
Is lvl 70 good enough for Kasumi or should I push it more?
>>14518455
If you exclude ships that are already strong on their own like Yamato, Roma or Shimakaze, it's entirely possible.
>>14518472
So far no DD Kai Ni was above level 70 but who knows what the devs have planned.
>>14518475
Shimakaze needs a K2 anyway for a better sprite
>>14518475
Then that wouldn't be every ship™.
Please tell me this is just a placeholder and not the actual result I would have got if I changed the recipe.
>>14518475
Not really. In this event we got four girls and none of them are strong. Graf needs Drei.
>>14518496
That's why you should always go for 250 steel and bauxite.
>>14518497
Most event ships are what they are: trophies which is fine. You don't want to be gimped from future maps just because your luck was so shit you couldn't get the super useful ship. It's a good thing Ooyodo and Akashi became charity drops for the unlucky sods.
As long as they keep updating art of ships like Oboro and Shouhou I don't even care if some ships never get a Kai Ni.
>>14518516
I just want my shipfu to get a remodel, but it's never going to happen because she didn't really do anything cool.
>>14518530
Akatsuki didn't do anything cool (unless illuminating a ship and getting raped in every hole shortly after counts as "cool") and guess what happened.
>>14518530
70 luck K2 when?
>>14518545
Please don't speak about an elegant lady like that. She did her very best. Thanks!
>>14518530
Kisaragi has a Kai Ni.
>>14518448
Every Gumoexcept the war criminalis the best Gumo.
>>14518559
Wasn't she one of the first to be sunk?
>>14518558
We're talking about Akatsuki, not Hatsuharu.
>>14518564
>except the war criminal
She just wanted to help.
>>14518564
You can't stop the megane train
>>14518564
Makigumo did nothing wrong.
>>14518545
She fucking took Sazanami's K2 place and that made me mad. My Sazanami was all ready for that upgrade but nope, denied.
>>14518564
Shit taste.
>>14518587
>Fit sleeves

>>14518587

>>14518564

>she gets 70 FP
Soon, the Abyssal DDs will fear her.
>>14518606
>70 FP
More like a small ASW bonus. You know, some of these POWs may hit a submarine or something.
>Being this shitter
I hope no one of you does this.
>>14518567
Where's Miyuki Kai Ni with 75 firepower?
>>14518680
At least that can be useful for sparkling. It's a lot better than two level 1s, and 4 99-150 AACI ships, carriers, hotels, and a sub, or whatever else they feel like dicking you with.
>>14518688
>At least that can be useful for sparkling
There's 1-1 for a reason.
>>14518696
You can sparkle your whole fleet at once
>>14518680
No wonder he has 0 friends.
>>14518698
You can get 61~62 morale in 1 sortie and 85 morale in 3 sorties, comparing it to a whole fleet with 50 morale would only yield one guaranteed success.
>>14518717
And? That's enough for overnight expedition. I don't want to waste half an hour when I want to sleep.
>>14518710
AS after two Nu on first node and Wo Kai on second node (worst scenario)
394 -> 384 -> 374 -> 373
380 should be enough before final kill.
So the Kancolle Arcade Article has finally been published. If anyone is curious to learn more about it I recommend checking these two posts.

Not that I have any plans to play it.
>So I think it has a chance to catch on here since the fandom is a bit strong.
I don't know what world Totaku is living in but it's sure not this one.
>>14518496
I would tell you that, but I don't like to lie.
>>14518795
For some reason I tought it was tanaka laughing at us but without being able to see him.
>>14518795
I wonder how it will portray the installation bosses. Will they be significantly larger on top of a piece of land or will they float on water?
>>14518795
This shit needs to come out so we can finally get Ise-class K2.
>>14518795
>In the battles I saw, both sides could use guns more than twice and ships that had them could use torpedos outside of the torpedo phases
Sounds horribly unbalanced in favor for the CLTs, especially since it's all close ranged battles unless Chi can also spam torpedoes. It also looks like LoS has a bigger importance here, it always needed to be buffed for something more useful.
>Inazuma and Ikazuchi magically get a double K2 release out of nowhere
What would you like to see?
Lightning bolts on Ikazuchi's rigging? A cool scarf?
A more mature appearance for Nanodesu?
>>14519009
Different artist, unless it'd be Kuso Ichiso.
>>14519009
Yadokari is going to ruin it anyway, he legitimately sucks at drawing.
>>14519048
I still say he's better than KuuroKuuro.
>>14519009
Anything is fine, I just want them to hurry up so I can finally scrap them.
>>14519009

>>14519050
Old Kuuro? Maybe. New Kuuro? No way.
>>14519009
Please no, their class already has 2 remodels. I feel the devs are actively ignoring Yuugumo and Asashio class.
>>14519185
They could at least give second remodels for nameships and starters. That'd be a good start. I doubt Kai 2 takes so much fucking time and resources.
>>14519185
There's only 4 of them and they're enormously popular.
Complete the class and you can move onto the other DDs.
>>14519185
>Asashio class
It's fine if you don't like her but Kasumi still exists.
>>14519205
It is to "extend" the game's life, but I feel it's giving the opposite effect with how long it actually takes them to get the remodels out.
>>14519226
We don't even have a single Kagerou K2, ffs.
Any bets on how long we will have to wait for the first one?
>>14519257
They're going to finish adding the Kagerous before giving any of them a second remodel.
>>14519257
Kagerous are mostly trophies and have two strongest non-Kai-Nis so they don't count.
>>14519257
>Rares are happy
>Common trio are suffering
why
>>14519257
What is Hamakaze looking at?
>>14519266
Shimakaze isn't a Kagerou.
>>14519268
Uras armpits.
>>14519270
Ah, right, I always pair her up with Beaver.
Still, Yukikaze is the best DD so kagerous have it better than Asashio or Yuugumo classes.
Ayanami class needs another Kai Ni as well because Ushio is a joke while Sazanami is a starter.
>>14519272
Well then she has good taste then.
I would rather have a mogami K2 before another DD. So lame how tone class dumps all over the other four CAVs in the game.
>>14519257
I feel there is a deeper meaning to this.
>>14519273
>Still, Yukikaze is the best DD
She's worse than Demon God right from the start, and Poi will absolutely shit all over her if you feed her some Maru-U's.
Also her sprite is ugly.
>>14519291
>Also her sprite is ugly.
Rude.
>>14519291
Beaver is the go-to DD for events thanks to cap luck and good stats.
In normal sorties, yes, she has far less firepower than Poi but on the other hand she has better evasion and much more armor.
Oh, and don't bring Maruyu to this kind of discussion if you want to be treated seriously, please.
However I agree that she's ugly and annoying. If only she was like MMDs portray her... I remember watching some before starting KanColle and thinking she must be a great girl.
>>14519270
>>14519273
What about Amatsukaze?
I would think he meant Amatsukaze and Yukikaze if you're talking about the Kagerous.
>>14519291
Not sure if I'd go that far, but I do like Poi better.
>>14519306
I'm not sure hoe to judge Amatsukaze's strength to be honest.
>>14519304
She doesn't have the best max luck in the game. That's Hatsushimo by 1 point.
Shimo just doesn't have the stats her more famous peers do.
>>14519311
I really don't know either, since I've got the most rotten luck in existence with drop ships.
I know she's well known for something, but what I can't say, other than being Shimakaze's cousin (and not sister like everyone says).
>>14519291
>>14519304
How is Beaver ugly and/or annoying?
She is a hard worker, doesn't say しれぇ every 10 seconds like a certain someone and her damaged sprite is cute as fuck. You could argue her normal sprite isn't the best, but it's far from ugly.
>>14519321
From what I can tell she has slightly better torpedo stats than the majority of the Kagerou class, but strictly worse than Yukikaze/Shimakaze.
>>14519226
What's keeping the game alive for me is the seasonal stuff, it makes the characters feel a little less static. Those have always been top class.
My favorite seasonal line right now is Suzuya's. Off-season picture because I don't have a Christmas on hand.
>>14519334
dat armor tho
>>14519321
She has the highest armor of all the Destroyers, not that means too terribly much. She also comes with rare equips and has 3 slots before kai.Also she is the cutest
>>14519321
I meant effective cap which is 60 for torp cut-in. You get her to level 20, modernize and you're done, you have a monster in your ranks without any effort.
Hatsushimo needs one whole set to achieve true reliability.
>>14519327
The certain someone is very cute and has special wild/sexy charm, しれぇ isn't a problem in her case.
I guess it's Yukikaze's face, Yoshinori can't draw open mouth for shit and it's extreme in her case. As for being annoying, it's the pitch of her voice.
>>14519339
I wish that mattered, sometimes it can even be a downside.
>>14519361
We have very different girls then. Hatsushimo is one of my best DDs while Yukikaze has a reputation for taking hits from everything that moves and choking.
>>14519348
>tenga
>cute
>>14519371
Very cute.
You are taking responsibility for this right?
>>14519368
Going by personal experience, Yukikaze, Fubuki and Shimakaze are top3 of chokers.
I've seen a level 155 Hatsushimo on my PvP list today. Wonderful sight, like a shining gem in a sea of plebs called Brunei.
>>14519397
Don't have Shimakaze, but the top chokers for me are Shigure and Yukikaze. Both are maxed stats and at their highest remodel, and I've had 2 events in a row where they ate it on me.
>>14519396
This is heresy.
>>14519397
Good ships in general seem to suck for me.
Not for lack of trying, you know?
I do what I can.
The middle of the road ones are my best performers.
Shoukaku > Zuikaku
Literally anything > CAs
Hatsushimo > Yukikaze
Shouhou > Junyou
I can't figure it out.
>>14519433
>talking shit about CAs
become proficient
>>14519445
How?
I'm doing nothing wrong.
They can do stuff, but when I'm in a pinch where I need them they never fail to disappoint me.
Maya, Myoukou, Choukai, all Kai Ni, all good CAs. Hell most of my CAs are Kai Ni shy of Haguro.

This, he is just a bad artist. His ships look cute but I'd say that's more an accident than anything.

>that face
>that party popper
I'm not sure if it's subliminal lewd or not.
>>14519521
Have you accepted Parsley as your new god yet? The age bob is over. Long live Parsley.
>>14519521
>they actually put that sprite in the game
all of my yes
>>14519521
parsley can't keep getting away with this
12 runs this month. 3 for final kill.
Sparkled, no supports.
>>14519521
This could have been Katori if Parsley didn't immediately forget about her.
>>14519521
Fuck off brat.
>>14519546
This, Kashima was a mistake.
Also unless Im dumb, Im not seeing a hint about new sprites in the tweet, sounds like something way to ambiguous to me.
>>14519557
>Kashima was a mistake.
Your birth was a mistake.
How many hours left till today update?
>>14519559

What is this 2013?
>>14519557
>Kashima was a mistake.
No. Kashima is cute and a good girl.
>>14519594
I didnt imply that, shes fine, but its not the Kashima I wanted, I needed another cake as the 2nd kanmusu of Katori class.
Kashima is superior to Katori in every possible way.
>>14519614
Except voice, I can't stand her 10 second attack line and high-pitched scream when she gets damaged.
>>14519614
Kashima is missing the most important thing, which is glasses.
>>14519613
Just wait, Kashii will be even younger and a lolidom type.
>>14519626
I know, isn't it great?
>>14519614
>no pantyhose
>dd tier body
> brat
Nice legs and hair tough.
>>14519627
What if we actually get aloli cake?
>>14519626
No glasses was a blessing.
The lack of pantyhose, on the other hand...
>>14519627
Yes please.
>>14519634
Oh well, what could have been. This is the last time I get hyped.
