Drama induced by actual events happening on screen. For example, if at least one member of Mike's crew got hurt before this episode, Mike's break down now would feel more natural (in the sense of being a natural consequence of what came before in the show) and easier to relate to for the audience.

No I mean actually getting hurt. The Shiro thing was stupid since she went to rescue a cat and whatnot. There's no you could make the audience feel any sense of danger that way. And you can't make the audience get into Mike's fears if you can't even manage to make them feel any sense of danger.

In order for any drama not to feel "forced" you gotta make the audience feel invested in it.

It's an incredibly dull family where I can't tell apart 90% of the family members.
>>

>The show already makes you feel invested with the crew through all the SoL
I mean invested in the situation, in the danger they're going through.

Honestly, I don't feel any sense of danger in this show. And I'm not the only one there. The series just doesn't convey the stakes properly.
>>
>>143024578
>Mike's break down now would feel more natural
Mike break down makes sense if you remember that she said that no one got injured because of her luck. That's her problem more than people getting hurt on its own, it's the same doubts about her skills she had since the first episode.
>>
The only thing that I felt the show was lacking was the fact that they never even try to get the audience invested in Moka, so Mike spending the whole show after her just feels really tiring.

>>143025016
>she said that no one got injured because of her luck
Except that doesn't make sense because they didn't overcome just one situation. They got on top multiple times. If it's all luck, it's supernatural luck or something. Far from making Mike's fear relatable, that just makes the whole thing feel retarded.
>>
>>143025003
>. The series just doesn't convey the stakes properly.
Because there are no stakes here. There never were for fuck sake, them making big issues out of the rice cooker being broken and the lack of toilet paper was supposed to tell you exactly that. Everything in this show is done to not give you the point of view of the girls but of someone who is looking at them and thinks what's happening is silly/dumb.
>>
>>143025003
Just because you know they'll live doesn't mean there's no sense of danger. That's like saying capeshit movies have no sense of danger because you know the main characters aren't going to die.
>>
>>143025194
>Because there are no stakes here
I agree. Which is why Mike's fears feel forced.

Bridge crew, doctor, Maron and trash are pretty much the only ones who've had any sort of characterisation.

>>143025101
Why did they fire ASROCs against a BB? Why did they shoot it with the Bofors that somehow has a lower rate of fire than the Musashi main battery? We will never know.

>>143024970
I don't know what they were thinking. Most characters get no screentime whatsoever while others are just spouting the same one-liners every episode.
>>
>>143025162
Mike's lack of self-confidence makes her think it was all luck. There's also how the Musashi is in a totally different league compared to all the other ships they faced so far.
>>
>>143025247
No, in her world there is danger and everything is serious. We know she is wrong but she thinks that there is real danger of someone dying.

>>143025162
No, she is competent (and lucky), but she THINKS it's all down to luck. She's in a spiral of self loathing and fear that started when she had to give up on the Musashi the first time and got worse when Shiro almost drowned.
>>
>>143025210
>Just because you know they'll live doesn't mean there's no sense of danger.
Of course, but you can create plenty of sense of danger even if you know everyone's going to live. People actually getting hurt from time to time would help, for instance. Also, a bit of sol is okay, but the staff should be able to keep some sense of dread even during sol moments (look at Yuuki Yuuna beach episode for an example of this).

Execution plays a bit part here. It's not enough to tell the audience that something is dangerous. You've gotta make them feel it.
>>
>>143025247
Their lives are at stake in addition to the lives on the Musashi and the people on land in danger of being bombarded.

That's a writing issue right there. It's not enough that Mike is afraid for her crew. You gotta make the audience fear for them too. Otherwise there's like a disconnect between what the characters feel and what the series actually convey, and it shouldn't be like that.
>>

Like fire command post (or whatever that was) being destroyed and its crew only surviving due to air bags, which probably wouldn't help in the slightest against direct hit from Musashi?

>Their lives are at stake
That's what they say. That danger isn't properly conveyed so.
>>
>>143025453
People on the Harekaze got bruises and the ship took serious damage on episode 9. They should have put more serious wounds but people still have gotten hurt.

After all they went through, that alone is too little too late.

>>143025599
>Otherwise there's like a disconnect between what the characters feel and what the series actually convey, and it shouldn't be like that.
That's exactly what they wanted to do. They could have done 100 things to make us fear for them but instead they went out of their way to actually disconnect us from them.

If I have to guess what they wanted to achieve, it was the same thing GuP did (ie let you know nothing bad can happen to the girls) without taking the sports aspect. The only problem with this is that the anime went too fast and 12 episodes were not enough. I have no doubts they planned this to be a 24-26 episodes anime.
>>
>>143025652

Not really. Remember, they are students who are not suppose to see actual combat and has yet to have their official training mission to get them accustomed to their ships. All things considered, this breakdown was a long time coming.

They are under-aged, under-prepared, under-powered, and under an obscene amount of pressure. I'll be more worried if they didn't have any sort of fear in them, especially since the enemy does not give a shit about killing other people.

Maybe play down the sol a bit. Remove the sillier jokes and make everyone a little more aware they're fighting "for real." Remember that ova about girl pilots from Shirobako? I think Haifuri would be way better if it had a similar vibe.

Honestly, there are tons of reason why planes don't/shouldn't exist in this verse. I mean, if there have relatively little-to-no wars, then planes aren't a necessity, especially since they've switched over to a maritime-heavy society due to the whole tectonic situation.

That's only what you assume because nothing has happened yet (and isn't likely to happen either because we know the nature of the show). For the characters who are getting bombarded by the Musashi, though, I'm fairly sure that they know that getting hit would fuck their shit up and that's why Mike is afraid. Why should they assume that they're in a cute cartoon world where nobody dies?
We also know that Mike is famous for being lucky, she even stated that the only reason why nothing bad has happened to them yet is pure chance. God damn it edgefags please stop being angry because these girls aren't dying or because there wasn't any deep plot about conspiracies and mutinies and try to enjoy the show for the cute girls and occasional naval combat that it's worth.

Why are torpedoes so awsome?

They're the great equalizing force for destroyers. If all Harekaze had was her 5-inchers, they'd be pretty much literally unable to do anything but knock out secondaries and kill people in the superstructure. Even with bulges, a torpedo is a credible threat to any vessel afloat.
>>
>>143027137
Not really. Most of our shipping is still done with ships. Airplanes are mostly used for fast interpersonal traveling and against enemies. I mean, looking over at the news, what else besides military and tourism, are airplanes being used for? Speaking of which, airplane for traveling isn't actually very profitable as it's only the guaranteed airmail from the government postal services that's keeping it afloat.

In this verse, with seemingly very little battles and the rise of coastal cities, airplanes just doesn't seem like a necessity.
>>
>>143028206
I've personally just figured that the alt-history of this whole thing is that people looked at airplanes and went 'I guess, that's safe enough to put bombs on but fuck putting humans on-board'. Like how airships basically died off.
>>
>>143028332
The alt-history is that there is probably no world wars, and since they had somehow started methane gas mining so damn early, airplanes had probably took a back seat to ships and blimps due to the abundance of natural gases. If there's no enemies to be fought, then they have little reason to have airplanes since airplanes aren't very economical.

What ship do you think she's gonna ride into battle with? She's in Yokosuka, and the only description given of the fleet she destroyed was 'armored'.

No, that's because IJN decided the yamato could hold an island by itself with no air support or other supporting craft to form an actual AA defense.
Also their radar was mediocre, nowhere near as advanced as US radar, which really helped with air defence, oddly enough.

A better argument would be that a jet wouldn't be flying low enough for the 5 inches to be a meaningful threat, much less the 40's, the 20's and the whatever the fuck mmg round the gooks used.

Remember, these are just out of school students and under mind control. They've only managed to hit something moving after firing an obscene amount of time. Against something that fast and that small, those girls wouldn't be able to hit shit unless it's luck.
>>
>>143032217
That's bullshit. Just a few episodes back, the characters on the Harekaze were surprised by how accurate the Musashi is, as the latter wrecked the male school's ships.

If they become stupid now, that's a plot inconstancy. That wouldn't surprise me though.

Speaking of those, are they on remote control too? Because Tama manned a gun on the Harekaze physically while she was in hamster mode, and I the mermaids were more than happy to take largely-pointless-tactically potshots at the exposed superstructure.
>>
>>143032381
The Musashi only managed direct hit after firing an obscene amount of times. As long as they keep firing in the general area, even a random shell will hit something. I mean, have the Musashi managed to land multiple hits on a single target yet?
>>
>>143032489
Again, the girls were praising their accuracy, so I don't think it was just a case of firing whatever and getting lucky when you hit something.
>>
>>143032637
That's more of a testament to the ship's firing system than to the girls' aim. It landed in the general area rather than somewhere else. A rifle in the hands of an amateur isn't going to hit shit, but it is still damn accurate.
>>
>90-100 rounds left in Musashi's magazines
So that's between 30 and 33 three-gun salvos they'll all have to endure. They just might be able to exhaust that if they play their cards right and help arrives. I'm not sure that'd be particularly climactic, but whatever works.
>>
>>143032776
If that what you want to believe, be my guest. But the girls were clear, Musashi's gunners are accurate, even if they're zombies. I just hope the writers remember that and keep things consistent.
>>
>>143032948
Good gunnery in the main battery wouldn't necessarily correspond to the secondary armament, but it is a crew filled with the best of the school.

What you do?
>>
>>143025101
Because their main force was somewhere in the Philippines, they were the only ones in range.

A better question would be why the Harekaze, a pitiful DD, is engaging the BB while those modern LCS utterly failed to do anything.
>>
Why did they replace the 10cm/65 twin mounts with 5"/38 single mounts?

The 5"/38 won't be any more effective against Musashi, and the 10cm/65 was an overall better gun for destroyers.
>>
>>143034718
Take responsibility
>>143035705
>This will be a fight against overwhelming odds from which survival cannot be expected. We will do what damage we can
They're the only ones there. The only thing between one of the largest battleships ever built and thousands if not millions of lives. It's not really a choice at this point.
>>143035788
Better fire control probably?
>>
>>143035788
Those are actually 5"/54 caliber.
>>
>>143035864
Either way, I don't think that three 5"/54s are better than six 3.9"/65s.
>>
>>143035960
Longer barrel, longer range, better accuracy, possibly a higher rate of fire. More lighter guns would be better for fighting smaller ships or saturating the superstructure, but that range in particular will probably help them out a ton.
>>
>>143035960
The 5 inch is every way superior to the 10cm mounts in every regard by a large margin.
The most you'll get out of a 10cm mount is 15 -21 rounds per minute. A fully automated 5"/54 was designed with 40 rounds per minute. Derated to 28 RPM after 1968
>>
Forced and out of character.
Why do the Japanese have to dramatize everything?
>>
>>143035788
>>143035960
Perhaps they were the only guns in stock when the Harekaze's turret was replaced. The replacement fire director might have also been specifically calibrated for the 5" instead of the 3.9" so they decided to just switch everything to 5" instead of having mismatched guns with differing performance..
>>
>>143036117
In justification of ep 10, dramatic part is necessary I think.
>>
So we can all agree that she's absolute best girl, right? It doesn't matter who your waifu is or anything
>>
>>143036092
If those are 5"/54s, they're the Mark 16, not the Mark 42, which means you won't be seeing anywhere close to the same RoF as on modern ships.
>>
>>143036117
>out of character

It was established a long time ago that she values the crew as family. Of course she'd be hesitant on sending them on a suicide mission.
>>
>>143036092
>A fully automated 5"/54 was designed with 40 rounds per minute.
Except it's not the Mark 42 but the Mark 16.

The 10cm has higher muzzle velocity and ultimately more guns. On the other hand, the 5" has greater range, a far heavier projectile weight, and markedly better turret traverse.

>>
>>143036547
I was just about to go looking for that comparison, thanks matey. I'm betting on the range to be the ace of the guns, if nothing else.
>>
>>143036547
Honestly the projectile weight won't matter against Musashi. There's nothing that a 5" shell will penetrate that a 3.9" shell won't also penetrate. The only real advantage the 5"/54 has is range.
>>
>>143036547
I find comparing RoF in Haifuri a little bit odd considering every gun in here has an automated feeding system.

Just to nitpick, the 10cm apparently only had HE shells, while the 5/54 at least had the option to use Semi-Armor Piercing shells, so it CAN matter. Will it make a difference in this show? No, I don't think so.

>>143036741
Yeah, it's pretty pointless. That said, the passage of time during the battles and the ranges at which they engage are all sorts of screwy in the how. It's really hard to tell how much of it is better equipment and how much of it is akin to GuP's 2x speed.

>Just to nitpick, the 10cm apparently only had HE shells, while the 5/54 at least had the option to use Semi-Armor Piercing shells, so it CAN matter.
It really won't. Semi-AP won't penetrate anything on Musashi that HE won't also penetrate. HE will do more damage to exposed equipment though.

The Harekaze crew has been learning and improving where as the mind-controlled people are still acting on instinct.

Or maybe they were training during the time they were travelling around. I mean, they weren't always having some sort of festival during all of this crisis.

>>143038272
It's a new hybrid to combat the rats infestation. They took all the research data from the rats project and used it to create these new humanoids that can act as a crew member in addition to being immune to and catching all those mind-controlling rats.

That or the captain had tricked her into thinking that wearing cat ears, and not the vaccine, that's makes them immune to the mind control.
>>
I wanted this to be a good show, I really did.

But the directing is so bad.

We didn't see Moka for the whole season, and they decided to stuff Moka's POV for the whole season into 5 minutes in today's episode.

Mike was off character the whole episode. She was supposed to have overcome her worries and become a good captain, isn't she? Instead she moped the whole episode. They literally threw away the whole season's worth of development today.

Also, Harekaze was set up to be the ones to face off Musashi, but instead the older girls came in and did 75% of the work.

The show just runs on pep talks about "muh ocean famiry".
>>
>>143039093
>Or maybe they were training during the time they were travelling around.
Before that point they were just running away since everyone wanted to blow the shit out of them. Then they were forgiven and given the mission of coming back to school right away, but when they were on their way they were given a new mission of checking on the Musashi. So really before that point they didn't have the time to train.
>>
>>143039244
Moka's POV was unimportant. Five minutes were all that were needed. All she did was hang around the Musashi waiting to be rescued. The past season was more about Mike bonding with the rest of the crew to become a real family. Contrast her actions in episode 5 to this episode. The Musashi was way more powerful than the Hiei and facing it was effectively suicide. It's a totally different situation.
>>
>>143037561
>They used fucking squirt guns to save the Spee
Please tell me this is bait
>>
>>143039389
No it's not. They discovered that salt water disables the mind control virus. I'm not even kidding.
So the most logical course of action was to board the Spree with super soakers and shoot the girls with sea water.
>>
>>143039380
Moka's pov might be unimportant, but her character itself is Mike fucking main motivation. The climax of the series, the big final, is all about Mike rescuing Moka. Only we have no reason to care about her because she's a literal who with 5 minutes of screentime.
>>
>>143039380
>and facing it was effectively suicide
No its not this isn't some grimdark anime. They'll be fine and they should just ram Musashi
>>
>>143039465
Mike's motivation is to find a family. In the beginning Moka was the only family she really knew, but as time went by the Harekaze crew took her place. The Musashi is just a final boss for them to take down.
>>
>>143039351

I'd assume that water hitting someone's face at this strength would at least stun them for a bit. I guess you should rather ask how she got these bizarrely strong water guns.

>>143039809
She didn't get knocked out. She got cured. And Minami theorised that would only work if the infection was recent, which wasn't even the case with the german crew.

Not necessary. They'll just strap the two onto their torpedoes and fire it over the Musashi like a missile and have them paradrop onto the ship.

>>
>>143039886
The drama CD doesn't go into Moka's character or make any significant effort into making the audience get attached to her. Besides, it was released before the show started, and we haven't seen Moka ever since.
>>
>>143039744
The final is the Harekaze proving their worth by beating a ship that should be way out of their league. Moka just is there to contrast how she was in the beginning when she had no family but Moka to how she is now, with a big family. Mike barely even mentions Moka in this episode, the emphasis is on the Harekaze crew.

They have proved that plenty. This isn't about that, specially not for Mike.

>Moka just is there to contrast how she was in the beginning when she had no family but Moka to how she is now, with a big family.
That has nothing to do with the reason Mike wants to rescue Moka though.

>Mike barely even mentions Moka in this episode, the emphasis is on the Harekaze crew.
The moment she realizes Moka's okay, she stands up again and goes to the rescue. No doubt what Shiro and her crew told her helped to get over her doubts, but ultimately Mike's doing this to save her best friend. And that's why said best friend needed more focus.

Poor Captain Mike, not even all the Shiro Mayonnaise in the world can redeem your admitted incompetence and two-faced lies you tell yourself. But you'll win at the end anyway because of your luck and plot armor if they don't die at the end

>>
>>143040237
>This isn't about that, specially not for Mike.

It is. Next episode they'll reinforce what Mike said in episode 8, that there's no storm they can't get past. Saving Moka is an objective, but story-wise, the focus is on how strong the Harekaze crew has gotten together. All you really need to know about Moka is that Mike values her a lot, which they've done a good enough job of. Her personality isn't very relevant.
>>
>>143041315
>All you really need to know about Moka is that Mike values her a lot, which they've done a good enough job of.
If you seriously think that, I hope you'll never become a director or writer. A good story doesn't just give the characters a reason to take action, it also makes the audience care about it.
>>
Silly girl, just because you found mysterious white goo on your panties doesn't make you mayonnaise.
>>
>>143041504
Many movies don't give extensive focus on why two people are friends, they're just friends at the start and has the audience assume that they care for each other. The show has shown enough information on Moka for us to care, even if only it's because she's Mike's friend and we don't want to see Mike sad. She's the only family she had after she lost her parents and inspired her to be a Blue Mermaid.
>>
>>143041801
>The show has shown enough information on Moka for us to care
I don't think so, and based on the comments here and other places, I doubt most people think that way.
>>
>>143041950
That's because most anime fans need everything to be spelled out for them.
>>
>>143041950
She's a plot device and is just there to give Mike a personal reason to fight the Musashi. You want her to be saved because you want Mike to succeed.
>>
>>143042218
>spelled out
You're missing the point. It's not that we don't understand that Moka's important to Mike. But that's not enough to make us care for her. We can understand what Mike feels but we don't get that involved because we don't care about Moka like she does.
>>
>>143042229
>>143041504
>>
>>143042328
You are not supposed to care about Moka, you are supposed to care about Mike who cares about Moka.
>>
>>143042328
You can replace Moka with an inanimate object that Mike treasures and the plot would still work. The writers probably went with a living plot device because they wanted to sell merch and because she shows how Mike's family has grown from one to more than thirty. The point is that you want Mike to win and what she wins isn't important. Giving Moka extra scenes would just detract from the Harekaze crew anyway.
>>
>>143042443
>You are not supposed to care about Moka, you are supposed to care about Mike who cares about Moka.
Maybe, but things would work significantly better if the story makes you care about Moka herself.
>>
>>143042551
Not sure if heartless fuck or edgy teen
>>
>>143042500
>You can replace Moka with an inanimate object that Mike treasures and the plot would still work.
Sure but you won't get nearly the same emotional involvement if the thing to rescue is a literal object instead of a person. And if it's a person, you'll get the audience even more involved if you actually make the audience care for that person. The more you make the audience care the better.

>Giving Moka extra scenes would just detract from the Harekaze crew anyway.
Not at all. You'd have to make some compromises but it would pay off at the end.

Probably Moka. Have you seen how manly she looks in that uniform? She probably shagged Mike before taking off on the Rat Boat.
>>
>>143042684
There's not much you can show of Moka beyond flashbacks to what they did when they were younger, and that's not as important as funny SoL scenes of the Harekaze crew like the Koukai rap or the Meitama skit.

The subtitle script is exactly the same. But HS has better formatting. Didn't check the timing. The Daisuki video is 240 MB larger, but uses a slightly less efficient coding method. Didn't compare the perceptual quality. Daisuki has a logo and a 10 second logo intro. HS has none of that annoying shit (yet). BudLightSubs also ripped the Italian and Spanish subtitles, if you're into that. HS only ever rip English subs.

In an alternate timeline future where the world wars never happened, an all-women navy force called the "Blue Mermaids" patrol the waters around Japan as a peace keeping force. Japan itself has lost a significant amount of land due to methane mining, which made the whole island sink into the sea.

Mike and her childhood friend Moka both are new recruits in the blue mermaid training forces. Both end up being captains of different ships; Moka becomes the captain of the highest scoring class, and Mike becomes the captain of the lowest scoring class.

Mysterious happenings occur though when Mike's ship, the Harekaze, arrives late to their first fleet exercise, and starts being fired at by their instructor.

Why don't they just send a plane to destroy/disable the Musashi?

Just ignore them. Plenty of people in this thread liked it.
>>
>>143061293
If you need AA guns to take out boats, you shouldn't be allowed to board a ship.
>>
>>143061361
You do realize they are called dual purpose guns not specifically AA guns?
>>
>>143061293
Did they just tie a field gun to the front of that torpedo boat?

>>143061361
They're 25mm (and smaller caliber) guns. It's perfectly reasonable to use them for point defense. It's not like modern ships don't have heavy machine guns for these purposes or anything.
>>
>>143061210
To take out drones you dozy cock
>>
>>143061210
They're for killing sailors in lifeboats without wasting main battery ammunition
>>
>>143061443
But if there are drones, there should be planes as well.

>>143061445
Killing people in lifeboats is against Geneva.

Actually, most dual purpose guns were for destroyers/heavy aircrafts.
They usually have auto cannons/heavy MGs for light aircraft and small boats.
>>
>>143061435
>tie a field gun to the front of that torpedo boat
PT boat crews wanted a gun with a bigger punch so they tried tying the thing in front. Though eventually they were just given M4 37mm autocannons. Or later on the 40mm Bofors.


Hell some PT boats were throwing everything available onto it. From rocket launchers to motors just for that extra firepower.

Most required to take on barges who were too shallow to hit with torpedoes.

The light cannons/heavy MGs were also useful in engaging surfaced submarines.

I think the Japanese 25mm Hotchkisses were also used by the IJA as anti-tank/anti-vehicle weapons.
>>
>>143061783
Submarines are boats.

you keep throwing around that word like it makes you sound smart, when in reality, it just reinforces how much your opinion is simply parroting what others say.

So hard.
>>
>>143061808
Albeit not exactly small.
>>
Mike's breakdown felt really out of place.
They cleared all problems in their way without any of the crew having as much as a scratch, but then she suddenly doesn't want anyone to be in danger anymore.
>>
>>143061899
You need explosives strong enough to take out their guns which are made out of thick metal but weak enough to not endanger the crew.

Yes, it's hard.
>>
>>143062036
There are airbags, so even if they nuke it, the crew will be safe.
>>
>>143061991
Because the Musashi is such an easy enemy, right?
Only took out three Blumer ships already, no big deal.
>>
>>143061991
I also wasn't a huge fan of it, but every time before she had some sort of plan. Against the spee it was hit their props and run the fuck away, against the sub it was depth charges, against the hiei she had the plan to run them aground. Against musashi the first time she had the plan to board them even if it wasn't a particularly good one. Right now she doesn't really have any obvious options and she's only got an hour on the clock.
>>
>>143062201
Yeah, because the Sarushima, the submarine, the graf spee and the Hiei were totally harmless ships, and didn't endanger the crew at all.
>>
>>143062243
It feels even more out of place, because we all know she will have a genius idea on the last episode and will save all of them without a single casualty.
I don't think no one will get seriously injured or die, since it's not the tone of the show, so there isn't any fear, any tension, for the audience, because we all know there will be a happy ending.
>>
Dropping bombs (especially AP bombs) onto the turrets or around the guns risks the explosion spreading to the magazines, which would end poorly for pretty much everyone on the Musashi.

Also, bombing a maneuvering target is not easy. Those airship drones hardly have the agility of divebombers.
>>
>>143062350
>which would end poorly for pretty much everyone on the Musashi.
They have airbags.

>Those airship drones hardly have the agility of divebombers

The drones were almost touching the Musashi, so it's not that hard.
>>
>>143047801
too long for you ?
>>
>>143062442
The Musashi didn't open fire until they were right on top of her.

>airbags
Carbon-coated airbags.
>>
>>143062273
They weren't anywhere as strong as the Musashi.
>>
>>143062537
Yes, but even a single shot from the Hiei would kill everyone on the Harekaze.

It's like saying a 30 ton bomb isn't as strong as a nuke.

>a heavily armed battleship with a crew that's actively fired on people and is heading for a major urban centre
>don't hurt them because they're schoolgirls though

Surely if they were that much of a threat, you weigh the lives of a small crew of kids against the population of a city, then you sink the ship because it's like 30 kids versus several million people.

At least they decided to do that at the last minute. But sending out another boat? I get that they don't have planes, but if they have ASROCs and missiles then they have some kind of long-range ASW missile capability?
>>
>>143062585
I don't think the Hiei had as many guns. Also, their airbags could probably save them from a shot from the Hiei but they probably can't save them from a shot from the Musashi. Mike could sink the Hiei as a last resort while she'd be totally fucked against the Musashi.
>>
>>143062949
Did you not notice the blumers going ham with torpedoes and shooting the shit out of the secondary armament? They've stopped giving a fuck, if nobody else.
