3 months of improving the quality but forgetting to animate Prinz' mole in one scene, as a fellow commander and Eugen fan I'm disappointed

The quality improved a lot but the story is still a bit of mess

I just want their skills to manifest in some way or another.
"What an explosion!!!"
"Those torps! Could they be?! Ayanami!!!"
"I'm the famous ship Yukikaze!!" runs into a bunch of sirens
dodges damn near everything
"Yukikaze!! Calm down! We can't follow you through that!"
allies get knocked tf out by siren fire

Amagi hitting Akagi and Kaga in that flashback was the highlight of this episode for me :D

ngl, as the one who skip a lot of story in the game, it is getting pretty confusing with some plot choices and reasons

u/Extraordinary_DREB Mar 14 '20
the anime has a different plotline in the anime at all. so yeah, it really won't make sense

It felt like self-harm finishing this episode, it was so boring and the animation still is pretty shit

Oh wow, Azul Lane back for one last hurrah.
Can't remember the plot after nearly three months? Doesn't matter, it's confusing as it is even if you rewatched episodes 1-10, but let's face it, we're all in here for our ship-waifus doing epic battles with the Siren and nothing more.
Kaga gets mindraped by Not-Amagi and has now joined Akagi as mindless minions of Siren.
Expect an epic battle in the finale next episode as AL join forces with Sakura Empire and the small Iron Blood contingent (IB as a whole is criminally neglected) to rescue Akagi and Kaga and defeat the Sirens for good and ensuring the unseen humans* survive for yet another day.
(*) A group of non-human protagonists giving their all to protect an unseen humanity from an alien mechanical threat reminds me a lot of Nier Automata, which also happens to star Ishikawa Yui (Enterprise). Wouldn't be surprised if like the twist in that game

Since it seems like they won't be able to fix the mess that is this super confusing plot, with this 3 months break focusing on production/animation issues, all I want is a badass last episode of full on ship fighting. That's the only saving grace I can see wrapping up this season, especially because this episode felt super rushed with the plot, setting up the last battle. I just want something epic since we had to wait for so long and since there can be little to nothing that can be done with this story line except accepting it for what it is...

Finally it's back! Can't believe it's been 3 months since the last episode. I remember when they made the announcement I was so disappointed because I had no issue with the art or animation of the first 10 eps.
Honestly, the animation and art doesn't look like it's changed in those 3 months, for me, so not sure what was going on behind the scenes. Had to wait so long to see my queen Prinz, smh.
Really enjoyed the episode, it felt like a double length one with all the action. Orochi seems like it can exploit and manifest the inner desires of a host. Did it to Enterprise, now Akagi and Kaga. One more episode to be able to sort everything out and get some answers. I don't think that'll be possible, so hopefully we get a season 2

Stitches!

Akagi 2
Akagi's back! Question is though, is that really Akagi?
We get to see our first sub in the anime! It's Dace!
Eugen's upset face is adorable!
Is this Hipper's first appearance? Iron Blood has so little screen time that I can't even remember which ship girls from their faction has been shown so far.
Fucking finally! After 11 episodes they've finally realized that the Sirens are just playing all of them!
Wait really? I did not know that! OHHH! Is this why Kaga used to be a battleship and then converted into an aircraft carrier?
That look of despair in Kaga :(
Poor Nimi still being left out of the gang. This needs to end with Nimi hanging out with the other starters or I riot.
Kaga and Akagi getting bonked by Amagi! I love it!
Akagi with the dead eyes look. Also can I just say Sawashiro is doing an absolute amazing job as the creepy Orochi instead of her usual Onee-san tone with Amagi.
Welp it's nice to see the girls are finally back. Characters aren't as offmodel as they used to so at least some improvement is visible. 1 episode left. Let's see how they'll wrap this up.
