I had an epic win the other day

Sure it was 3P but 1 dude was useless

0 carts on AT Teostra

[stuck copper]

i did an AT kush run earlier we got it first try

and one of the gunner players congratulated me on my good dps for a melee

[heavy whale]

Kush is so cringe

[wintry sonnet]

speaking of cringe

got around to watching latest ep

what is this nes-tier animation

[heavy whale]

[wintry sonnet]

the animation quality's so inconsistent, I'm starting to double-check if I'm accidently watching a different anime

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

The anime is a failure. It's so sad.

Shit writing, shit pacing, shit animation.

[wintry sonnet]

well at least this ep gave me couple seconds of what I wanted

[stuck copper]

Some of the songs are nice, but that's about it.

[cosmic pier]

ugh
this succs
had to sleep like thru my weekend cuz im sick and feel like dying

[odd kestrel]

tentacle

[stuck copper]

i'll send you something to help you recover

there. medicine.

[odd kestrel]

who's need to recover ??

[wintry sonnet]

tbh cal

the fact the music is still keeping up in quality pisses me off the most about this whole thing

[steep scarab]

@wintry sonnet

[wintry sonnet]

because it just reminds me how we could have so much good music in game

[stuck copper]

speaking of tentacles:

[wintry sonnet]

instead of the same fkin sortie theme for 12 story chapters

[stuck copper]

has it always been there?

yeah, they really need to update the soundtrack. it's super lame.

[warm bluff]

[warm ice]

People conflating lewdness with absence of purity smh

[cosmic pier]

That is Bataan

[cosmic pier]

That's too philosophical for my small brain

Easier to write as equation

[warm bluff]

But Helena is not lewd!

Today is Black Friday.

Hmmmmmmm.

[cosmic pier]

today is a friday

[stuck copper]

We live in a society.

[ornate mantle]

I’ve never gone BF shopping before

[cosmic pier]

having to sleep thru most of my weekend feels

[ornate mantle]

I think the one thing I wanted to buy is like... an iPad Pro

That or a PS4

Idk who here is getting Crosswave on what console but it’d be great if we were all on a common platform.

Idk.

But usually for games like this I image there are.

Like, PVP could actually be six people controlling an individual ship girl.

[stuck copper]

Ara ship

[ornate mantle]

Ayyye

Not the same here unfortunately.

[wintry sonnet]

raining here too but didnt mind

not like I'm made out of sugar

[ornate mantle]

I'm a very cautious driver.

[cosmic pier]

same

i dont drive at all
cant have a driving accident if I aint drivin

[ornate mantle]

Reckless drivers are the reason why I want public transportation to be good.

So basically drift.

[cosmic pier]

this aint a racin game dammit

[ornate mantle]

[cosmic pier]

also with the pains of driving comes the pain of having to find somewhere to park the car

[ornate mantle]

Mhm.

Another big pain... especially in less than reputable neighborhoods.

[cosmic pier]

my uni rn is p convenient

i take a bus

then another bus

and it drops right in front of uni

but return time is late so gotta take a taxi from uni to the first bus route

and work is just a 10-15 min walk

[warm bluff]

I don't have lewd thoughts!

[stuck copper]

AL anime is ded

As I expected

[cosmic pier]

🍪

[stuck copper]

damn you rei

[cosmic pier]

I agree

[stuck copper]

well, I know it's you

[ornate mantle]

What makes AL anime dead.

I'm waiting to get paid before I catch up on episodes.

[stuck copper]

I read that the animator for ep.8 deliberately messed up with the animation

that's why the hair fluttering effect look so weird

https://www.facebook.com/groups/AzurLaneFleetposting/permalink/2731402900249118/

let AL anime stop

it cannot continue like this

[wintry sonnet]

speaking of animation

cannot unsee

[cosmic pier]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/257828947272663041/590295092493942784/mutsukisupercurse.gif

[wintry sonnet]

that said if it's not the budget in itself

but freelancers purposely fucking it up

that's a damn shame

[stuck copper]

yep

[cosmic pier]

so many conspiracies goin around al

person draws art to trigger roricons

animator shits on animation

[wintry sonnet]

speaking of drawing art

remember how fallen wings big seven girls were purposely drawn badly

seems AL can't find a way out of getting fucked with when art is involved

[stuck copper]

if you do this kinda shit, your career should end

[cosmic pier]

I still like the maryland ktxbye

[wintry sonnet]

was maryland the megane

[stuck copper]

luckily they don't mess up both Carol and Washy

[cosmic pier]

maryland is the red hair one that had like almost thorn clothes in prev art

[wintry sonnet]

oh the damaged art one

[cosmic pier]

carol and washy are by atagoat's artist

shiyo

[stuck copper]

I am going to make a video about Carol

[wintry sonnet]

ah virginia was the megane one

[stuck copper]

I might need some footage from WOWS

[cosmic pier]

I like a few of the old arts more than current ones

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/w/images/thumb/a/a2/MarylandOriginal.png/600px-MarylandOriginal.png

tis marylando

[wintry sonnet]

looks shit

[cosmic pier]

ok boomer

[stuck copper]

I second you Aquan

[wintry sonnet]

no I mean literally

looks shit

[stuck copper]

yeah, me has the same problem

the image cannot be loaded

[cosmic pier]

dam

[wintry sonnet]

this happens sometimes when you link from a wiki

[cosmic pier]

that does look shit

i mean that usually didnt happen

first time tbh

[wintry sonnet]

gotta do direct image upload instead

[stuck copper]

this original art looks nicer than the current one

i think it looks a little out-of-place

[cosmic pier]

ye take your damaged art back to kc

[wintry sonnet]

I mean it does look like a damaged art would look like

if AL had that

[cosmic pier]

gimme original zuikek

i'll pay

[wintry sonnet]

what's wrong with current zuikek

[stuck copper]

I don't need old Zuikek, I need her to turn around and show me her gorgeous boobs

[wintry sonnet]

looks fine

[cosmic pier]

idk i like this more than what she is currently

[warm ice]

Taste is subjective.

[stuck copper]

cute

[cosmic pier]

[warm ice]

But I prefer current Zui Zui.

[stuck copper]

cute, but not my taste

[cosmic pier]

I need her to turn around and show me her gorgeous boobs

that's called her skin

[stuck copper]

yes, skin is one thing

default skin is another

[wintry sonnet]

I dont have a horse in this race

either is fine

[cosmic pier]

I'd also like Kiri's original (well I like her current default too so just default along with original lol)

dont rember why they redid all the Kongous' arts too

memory aint helpin

[wintry sonnet]

LMAO

Google, sometimes you are a blessing in disguise

[stuck copper]

Missing: quality

fucking love it

[wintry sonnet]

I'm dying

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Ngl I'll still be a fanboy and enjoy the anime.

[clear gate]

The anime isn't the worst I've seen, it's just very middling imo. Still enjoying it

[wintry sonnet]

tbh that's kind of my problem

it started off with some promise but quickly became painfully average

and the random drops in quality dont help

[cosmic pier]

was the giant fox the promise

[wintry sonnet]

I mean

initially I hated the whole mahou shoujo thing

and I still think the whole world of warplanes bit is dumb

[cosmic pier]

wait

i thought this was an al anime

[wintry sonnet]

but at least it was somewhat entertaining, even if almost entirely not faithful to the game

also ||Seriously, in one episode we get 3 bait and switches with 3 different characters presumably about to die, or dead, being saved by plot armor||

[fringe carbon]

yes indeed

The anime is getting so weird

[wintry sonnet]

||Way to ruin any investment in the action scenes when you create the impression all the characters are invincible, I thought war never changes ||

This is the same criticism I had with KC's anime

they couldn't decide throughout the whole thing if they wanna do slice of life, or gritty war drama

[stuck copper]

at least KC got decent animation quality

AL anime? Neither plot nor animation

[clear gate]

It's not as bad as KC's take on it tho

imo

[wintry sonnet]

I dunno, at least KC was somewhat faithful to itself

minus the pokemon evolution

[fringe carbon]

XD

"pokemon evolution"

[wintry sonnet]

Honestly i still dont get why do they even use their rl ships

instead of just constantly using their shipgirl rigging

why would you not make yourself a smaller target

[stuck copper]

I'd rather have the girl transform into real warships and blast each other with cannon and torpedoes

AL is a mix of both hand-to-hand combat and naval bombardment

[wintry sonnet]

I dunno, sometimes it just feels some of the things the anime's doing is done just so they can avoid KC comparison

I'd rather they just focused on making sure they dont commit the same mistakes instead

[stuck copper]

having girls fighting with rigging to avoid KC comparison is bad strategy

[cosmic pier]

I thought war never changes
well, it doesnt change if no one dies and it keeps being the same people at war

[stuck copper]

on the other hand, having warships fighting might lead to the comparison with ARP

"started off with some promise but quickly became painfully average"

funny you say that

for me it started off quite shit and quickly became decently average

okay, my Centy is level 120, what to do with her now?

[wintry sonnet]

dock her and lvl someone else

[cosmic pier]

i dropped the animu at the sheffied flashing ep

[wintry sonnet]

ironically

again, same criticism I had for KC

I would've much rather the whole anime was like episode 6

[ornate mantle]

I just thought the KC anime was boring.

[wintry sonnet]

just do a slice of life with shipgirl memes and stuff

[ornate mantle]

But I was never a hardcore fan of KC anyways.

Just a casual fan...

So at the time I enjoyed it for what it was.

[wintry sonnet]

tbh from my experience and from experience of people I talked to, KC's anime seemed to be "The less you know of the franchise the more you'll enjoy it"

[ornate mantle]

I think the only scene I remember was || when Poi got her retrofit and her breasts like doubled in size ||

[wintry sonnet]

so I dunno, maybe AL's anime is same case

Since I know what the game's like and what the characters are like, I can't help but notice discrepancies

[fringe carbon]

Ranobe

you got a good memory

for "interesting" scenes

[wintry sonnet]

that's the pokemon evolution bit I was referring to azu

[ornate mantle]

See I actually think the AL anime is better for the fans.

[wintry sonnet]

cause she started glowing before her remodel

which never happens in game

[ornate mantle]

Wait hold, I wanna clarify that I think that makes sense though. Because retrofit is the ship changing and stuff.

Not saying it was a bad thing or fault I found.

Just that it was what made the best impression on me.

Oh, and also that Atago || has a charm with her pubic hair in it or some shit ||.

[wintry sonnet]

wait

which atago are we talking about now

[ornate mantle]

I'm still on KC.

[wintry sonnet]

first I hear of that

you sure you're not mistaking the anime for some thin book?

[ornate mantle]

Nope. It's canon.

[fringe carbon]

mhm

[ornate mantle]

Pretty sure her in game voicelines mention it as well.

[wintry sonnet]

I'm gonna need a citation on that now

[ornate mantle]

Lemme see.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBb6XYsxAws

[fringe carbon]

oh damn

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

Well it doesn't mention it outright what is inside, but when you dig more into it you figure out what they're implying.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah I read the comments explaining it

and tbh I'm more shocked that it implies atago's a virgin

[ornate mantle]

Canonically it hasn't been confirmed that ship girls can have children with people for the sake of making the distinction.

[somber halo]

anyone wanna help me catch this gigantamax hatterene?

[ornate mantle]

Idk if any ship girl implied to have had sexual relations before.

[wintry sonnet]

well, neither KC nor AL ever really explain in the anime how they're created

are they just built like machines, or are naval vessel essences merged with a human body

dont think we'll ever get an answer from either

[ornate mantle]

I don't even think it's that important.

All the fanbase really cares about is that they're cute ship girls.

In a way though, AL and KC have implied that the way both IP's shipgirls are made is different.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

At least just from being in both fanbases there appear to be significant differences.

[somber halo]

why does that anime kc taco look less lewd/more generic than her rule 34 counterpart

[wintry sonnet]

because they screwed the pooch on kc anime's atago and takao

[ornate mantle]

Because you gotta || make her as horny as possible for the doujins to sell||

[wintry sonnet]

the ogs are much more, what to say...

meatier

[ornate mantle]

Talking about the in game arts?

[wintry sonnet]

in the anime they removed alot of that

yea

anime atago and takao are way thinner than their og art implies

[ornate mantle]

Yeah Takao and Atago are dummy thicc.

Pretty sure the whole of Takao class is.

Including Choukai and Maya.

Okay Choukai not as much.

[wintry sonnet]

Wouldn't call Maya or Choukai to fit the same archetype

[ornate mantle]

You can be thicc and not fit the Ara Ara onee-san archetype though.

[wintry sonnet]

Choukai's your regular ol megane girl, while Maya's the delinquent type

but they're not the same thicc as atago/takao

[ornate mantle]

I double checked their art.

Not the same thiccness for sure.

[somber halo]

also anime kc taco hair is pretty different

[ornate mantle]

I guess I remembered them as being as bombastic as Takao and Atago wrong, lmao.

[wintry sonnet]

well to be fair, atago/takao in kc are largely forgotten by the devs

they never got any seasonal art nor do they have a retrofit

[ornate mantle]

I hate KanColle Takao.

[wintry sonnet]

not sure if their artist just disappeared entirely or what

[cosmic pier]

its ok shiyo got em covered over here

[ornate mantle]

It's been fucking years.

[wintry sonnet]

ok nvm their artist's still active on pixiv

[ornate mantle]

And Atago/Takao haven't had any Kai Nis.

Or Seasonal.

And it's fucking stupid.

KC is such a bubble IP.

[wintry sonnet]

if you think that's stupid

my starter girl Samidare hasn't had any seasonal cg or remodel to this day

and they even went out of the way to remove her in bluray edition of the anime

she appeared in like 2 scenes as a background character, in bluray they just removed her for no reason

[warm ice]

We’ve got to push the popular botes more.

[ornate mantle]

They put in the effort to remove a ship girl!?

[warm ice]

[wintry sonnet]

[ornate mantle]

[warm bluff]

[wintry sonnet]

I still remember that to this day

that was the ultimate fuck you to my starter

[ornate mantle]

Samidare is super cute too.

[wintry sonnet]

and she voiced by Taneda Risa

[ornate mantle]

Pretty sure she was my starter too.

I don't recall completely.

[wintry sonnet]

Samidare in AL when

[ornate mantle]

Soon enough man.

[wintry sonnet]

oh, right

fall event's supposed to start in kc today

but they had a fuck up with the maint

and their tldr was "everyone go get some sleep"

[cosmic pier]

[wintry sonnet]

started 11:00 jst, it's almost 6:00 jst

timer says 3 more hours

makes you appreciate AL's maint timers in comparison

[somber halo]

since most of these hololive botes are smol

if you get anything more than 1:00, you're fucked

[cosmic pier]

ur smol

[wintry sonnet]

oh

apparently there's rumours KC will get Langley this event

inb4 potato

[solar fjord]

[ornate mantle]

Oh really, is Langley gonna be SSR?

[wintry sonnet]

who knows

there's also gonna be Houston

and a new army ship

so that's a few candidates to be the rainbow reward this event

[ornate mantle]

Waow.

If only KC devs would bring the game to EN.

[wintry sonnet]

if only they ported the arcade over and transferred all the ships to it

arcade version is a proper game

[ornate mantle]

LOL

KC needs a massive overhaul of UI

It looks like the same shit.

From since i played years ago.

[wintry sonnet]

yeah, 2.0 didnt really change much

just increased the fps to 60

and upped the resolution

gonna send you a vid from the arcade version for comparison

dont think I can post it here because "damaged cg"

which technically isn't cg cause they're fully 3d but I rather not take chances

but man if I lived in jp, I'd be playing the arcade 24/7

that shit looks good

[ornate mantle]

That looks incredible.

Completely unlike the other one, lol.

[wintry sonnet]

yup, it's a proper game with an actual skill ceiling

[ornate mantle]

Also, got more rum eggnog.

[wintry sonnet]

exactly what the browser version should have more of

instead they keep doubling down on rng

[ornate mantle]

You can tell they're stuck to the past.

Their "winning" formula.

[solar fjord]

Eggnog

[wintry sonnet]

well, their winning formula was to make a buck on merch primarily, the browser game wasn't even supposed to live past a year or two

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, thanksgiving party leftovers.

[wintry sonnet]

so now they're kinda in this situation where they've got no clue what to do with it

[ornate mantle]

No kidding, lol.

Such a shame too. They had so much potential.

[wintry sonnet]

well, the potential's still there

just, they're stuck having the arcade version be tied to the arcades

dunno if it's concious decision or if it's what Sega demands

cause they're in charge of the arcade

[ornate mantle]

Honestly with AL here now, I don't think they have too much potential anymore.

It's like when Blockbuster failed to hop onto the video streaming service platform and got upturned by Netflix.

They had the potential but lost the edge to competition.

[wintry sonnet]

Ehh, I'd go with a little different comparison

one where KC does own a better platform than netflix, but they insist on keeping blockbuster more readily available

instead of just taking the better netflix and bringing it into the world

[ornate mantle]

I guess. KC is still popular in its own right.

[wintry sonnet]

it's past its golden age but the game is still reasonably popular in japan

[ornate mantle]

They could probably enter the competitive market fairly easily.

[wintry sonnet]

AL definitely chewed them off a lot by going international

and not having to deal with region locks

[ornate mantle]

Speaking of games going International.

Please give me the AK CBT code already.

[warm bluff]

[warm ice]

[ornate mantle]

[wintry sonnet]

I dont think I've ever seen a pic more accurately describing me

[somber halo]

it do be like that sometimes

[solar fjord]

[warm ice]

What a degenerate.

[ornate mantle]

That 24k point goal is actually super wonky.

[wintry sonnet]

how much do you even need to clean the store

[ornate mantle]

Rando mentioned like 40k or something.

[wintry sonnet]

ööf

[ornate mantle]

I go Sora from pulls.

[wintry sonnet]

58350 (EN)

[ornate mantle]

So I don't need to worry about that 8k unless I want a free MLB.

[cosmic pier]

its something like 37k ish minus the plates and chests iirc

each plate pack should add like 900

[ornate mantle]

Not going for Cola or Plates thankfully.

[somber halo]

the 24k goal is reasonable

thats for sora + all the bps

at 23k

[ornate mantle]

Mainly prints, chips, coins, and the SR cats.

[wintry sonnet]

well, I guess I'll set the target for 30k

and then whatever extra I'll get from farming gear skins

[ornate mantle]

The event maps give 150 points for the highest difficulty.

Was it always this small previous events.

[somber halo]

no

its because this event doesnt have a hard mode

[wintry sonnet]

150 sounds like the usual what you get from final map in hm

[cosmic pier]

fray

stop bein dum

[somber halo]

hi

u dum

[cosmic pier]

no u

150 is like the hm norm

[somber halo]

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

AH.

Wait, the HM norm is 180 points.

[somber halo]

rei

[ornate mantle]

And then the 2x first daily clear.

[somber halo]

stop being dum

[cosmic pier]

no

bein dum is more fun

[somber halo]

[ornate mantle]

Only benefit to taking event slow is that you can do the 3x daily.

And get those extra 300 points.

[wintry sonnet]

well

if you did SP from day 1, you should get what

12k points?

just from Sp alone

[somber halo]

uh

how long is this event again

[wintry sonnet]

2 weeks

[ornate mantle]

This one is pretty short.

Or it feels pretty short.

ends on the 10th.

[cosmic pier]

u feel pretty short

[somber halo]

yeah, 2 weeks is pretty short

[wintry sonnet]

that's what she said

[ornate mantle]

2 Weeks is the norm though.

[somber halo]

i guess i know what im doing the rest of this week

[ornate mantle]

Somehow this event feels like it's a week long.

Maybe because Mio is time locked.

[somber halo]

unfortunate

[ornate mantle]

It gives me depresso.

I want to see all my collection slots filled damn it.

[warm ice]

Padoru gang rise up.

[ornate mantle]

[ornate mantle]

Goddamn.

One Piece OSTs are absolutely gorgeous to listen to.

[somber halo]

[verbal obsidian]

i think theyre still on pre-order aint they

[somber halo]

they are

[verbal obsidian]

[somber halo]

the first wave pre-order was supposed to come in oct

but when i ordered mine, it said eta was mid-dec

so im not too worried about it

[verbal obsidian]

the global first anniversary was supposidly sent out right

but customs they said

[wintry sonnet]

I mean

customs is a much better reason

than delaying cause you wanted to change frosted glass with plastic

[somber halo]

well ya kno

most of the world is in good relations with china at this point in time

[warm bluff]

[warm ice]

[somber halo]

[ornate mantle]

"good relations".

[warm ice]

Soooo uh.

Professor at my Uni was arrested.

[warm bluff]

[wintry sonnet]

you in burgerland blue?

[clear gate]

Arrested? For what

[warm ice]

Making some rather, extreme, comments on Facebook.

And that’s all I’ll say.

[cosmic pier]

getting arrested

for facebook

in 2k19

[warm ice]

Tbf

They made threats of disproportionate action.

Hold it!

[cosmic pier]

needs more of that 'muriken 'fweedum

[wintry sonnet]

tbf if he did actually say something legitimately arrest-worthy

[warm ice]

[wintry sonnet]

like a call to violence

then that's the appropriate response

but given how fucked the times are

[warm ice]

^

[wintry sonnet]

I imagine it was nothing like that

[cosmic pier]

maybe he just wanted to lewd some lolis

[warm ice]

What self respecting human lands a job as a uni professor and likes anime?!

[cosmic pier]

ok boomer

[wintry sonnet]

that's why you become japanese studies professor

[warm ice]

Ok unoriginal response that has lost all meaning.

[wintry sonnet]

then you can say you watch hentai for research

[warm ice]

Anyways, exam time.

[cosmic pier]

dont need meanings in 2k19 anyway

[warm ice]

Pray that I don’t fail.

[cosmic pier]

ok

hope you fail

[wintry sonnet]

I'd pray but I'm an atheist

so good luck

[cosmic pier]

pray to feet

[wintry sonnet]

[cosmic pier]

[warm ice]

Alright, then give me your energy.

[cosmic pier]

Because that's weird.
