I'm going to watch this, but I have little faith considering that Diomedea is doing 2/3 other shows this same season.  Here's hoping I'm wrong!

Despite knowing little to nothing about Kantai Collection itself, I'm pretty hype for this anime.

Something about battleship girls and beta male captains.

I just hope for a decent anime.
Except for the new monogatari series, there is nothing I want to see, yet.

Oh yeah, for those in countries it applies to, Crunchyroll is going to be doing the legal streaming for this show.

Liked the launch and action sequences. It's all 3DCG, of course, but it doesn't look too shabby in motion. Nice plane shots, too. Love those Vals.

Dude even the anime thinks so.

You'd think the plane carrier would be more plain.

And yeah, the 3D animation did not badly detract from the anime.
In fact, it might have actually been nice.

If there's a way to summarize episode two without spoiling content this song pretty much accurately describes the second half of the episode.

Watching with my brother and sister, who don't know anything about the game, I had to kind of pipe in when they presented some of those game mechanics. It's not really a bad thing that they included repair times and buckets as a nod to the game, but it feels kinda out-of-place in an anime.

Second episode feels like it's mostly pandering to the fans and explaining some game mechanics actually work in the anime (ie. buckets) as well as character personalities and interactions.

Next episode will most likely be much more battle heavy, hopefully. It'll be a nice balance after this sort of episode.

kill off a sizable amount of the cast  like this, especially since there had been talk of a potential second season if sales and ratings were good.

Who knows what they're planning though. We could be in for a wild ride, haha.
