PS. Very happy to meet her in KCAC. She is so damn cute! A little bit sad that I didn't have enough time to visit Uraga dock to celebrate her BD last week.

I was like veteran player very active since 2013-2017.

I married my main 5 ships Shoukaku Kumano Abukuma Choukai Hatsushimo. And some shipfus. I was returning around 2 months ago. Several months after Rodney release . Then i heard last event got Rodney in it so i was thinking. This is a good time to coming back. Plus theres level cap increase. But honestly the main reason i coming back is i miss these 5 girls. They are my main waifus in early weebs days. Btw i just married Rodney too. BB levels quickly. But tbh. Japanese game in general should try to increase QoL in some areas. Until i reach cap again or new shipfus are attractive enougj then i keep playing

After managing to get the game working on Poi Viewer again (after clearing the cache and cookies a few times), I didn't waste any time in completing as many of the new quests as possible. Of the new quests, my current hurdle is quest Cy16. It's a PvP quest with the following conditions that must be completed to clear it:

Assemble a fleet containing any 1 of: "Hayashimo, Akishimo, or Kiyoshimo" as flagship, any 2 of: "Hayashimo, Akishimo, Kiyoshimo, or Asashimo", and up to 3 XX, then score 4 S ranks in PVP within the same day.

However, I can't seem to complete it even when I got at least 2 of the ships needed (Hayashimo and Kiyoshimo) in a 5-ship fleet (with one of the two required ships set as the flagship) and scored 4 S-Rank wins with this 5-ship fleet.

Any idea why I can't complete this quest even after doing the above?

Just discovered the Kancole Cabinet yesterday and I need a non Akihabara spot to get my fix. Walking distance from Iidabashi station or Akabane station would be ideal, but along the nomboku line should be fine as well. Thank you in advance 🙇‍♂️

I'm looking for a decent or fast way to power level my dds to Kai Ni. I up to 3-3, 4-1 and working my way through 7-1. I need at least a lvl 65 DD to do expeditions for resources. I was wondering what the most efficient way of doing this? I've tried doing the 1-5 grind but its just feels super inefficient and the Katori expedition eats up my expeditions.

Ok, so I’ve had this on my mind for a little while and finally had the urge to talk about it.

I had this dream once where I was in my house, up late at night, when I saw Iowa outside. But something was… not right about her…

Ok so, I will tell you what I will remember about it.

Imagine yourself in a bedroom on the ground floor. The window in your bedroom room faces the front of your house, towards the street. You are sitting on your bed, which is right next to the window, parallel to the wall. Your room is filled with merchandise of Enterprise’s race queen skin from Azur Lane, and you are looking at it, perhaps even admiring it.

Then you hear a noise. It’s from outside. You open the curtains and look out the window. The sky is dark, no stars are visible. There is a street light illuminating the road in front of your house, and a motion-activated light on your garage is on, illuminating the driveway to the left of your window.

You look at the driveway and you see Iowa, from Kantai Collection. Her back is to you.

You knock on the window to get her attention. She doesn’t answer. You knock again. Still nothing.

You knock a third time, harder. It seems to have worked. Iowa turns around. Your heart sinks.

That isn’t Iowa.

Iowa has bright blue eyes with golden stars filled with joy. The being before you does not have that.

The eye sockets are black, so dark you can’t see into them. A strange black substance drips from them. And the being is smiling. An eerie, toothy grin fills its mouth.

You back away, it comes closer. You get off the bed. It closes in still, the garage light no longer illuminating it. You finally reach your doorway. Iowa is pounding on the glass.

You wake up, it’s morning. Your heart is racing, and you are breathing heavily.

How the fuck did I dream that.

Why the fuck was it in my dream.

What the fuck did it want.

I am genuinely scared.

(Note: the image above is how she was standing. I can’t draw for shit, but I do have an Iowa figure. Also, the dream took place in my sister’s bedroom, but it was my room in the dream. I’ll get a more accurate picture at some point.)
