| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty good finale. I think all the buildup that led to this episode was worth waiting for in particular at how Blue Mermaid engages in their final battle. Oh and I liked how they mixed in the OP theme song during the mid episode for the grand climax. Very proud of how far the girls has come with their adventure. What a way for the girls to win and return home :D 7/10. Unexpected hidden gem of the Spring season imo. |
 |
| It was a good series. Didn't expect a lot, but it was better than I thought. Too bad that many didn't watch it. |
| nothing. |
| Hooray! Mike saved Moka and gave her a big, yurilicious hug! XD Just a shame it took 6 episodes too long. Yes, as I've said numerous times Moka was my favorite girl so her being a hostage the entire time seriously hampered my enjoyment of this otherwise enjoyable cute girls doing badass things(and cute thingsXD) show. If only she'd joined up with them halfway in. Really my only other compliant was just how asinine the brainwashing rodents plot was, but eh...I got over it. Too bad I can only give this a 6/10 though. Oh, and RIP Harekaze. :( |
| I hope in a second season!!! series: 9/10 And RIP Harekaze!!!! |
 |
| Well not good not bad, ok ok anime 6/10. Salute to Harekaze. |
| A solid 9 from me, the combat was solid and I generally liked all of the characters and the story. While it did tease the Musashi for a bit to long the payoff was worth it. And I'm a massive sucker for WW2 warships and anything they are involved in. But what about the people who accidentally released the killer mice, surely they should be massively punished even if it was an accident |
| Get your shit straight Brenda |
| And so ends the (arguably) worst show of the previous season, sinking to the bottom of our memory. They did a pretty good job at making the last episode as cliched as possible, and they even ran out of stuff to do so we got a clipshow, how lovely. 2/5. People have been comparing this show to GuP and while first I was shocked, after some consideration I realized that there is a very strong connection. Everything GuP did right, Haifuri did wrong. The bloated cast was bland and more annoying than endearing although I can see the hard pandering the studio was going for with girls like Rin and Shima (the popularity polls showing they did a good job on that front it seems). The "story"...do we even need to discuss it? It was stupid beyond belief and while that isn't that horrible in and of itself (Strike Witches still managed to have some amusement value and that's the closest I can think of) the execution and directing was abysmal. It tried to mix SoL and drama, but was so inept at doing so that they created one heck of an abomination. Budget issues, forgettable OST, it really was all around bad. There were a few scenes that were either awesome or genuinely funny, but the end product is still a horrible mishmash. Freaking Upotte was better. Yeah, I went there, no regrets. A generous 4/10. |
| Solid 8/10, I'm surprised the Harekaze could even make it to port. That boat took so much abuse. Only thing I would have liked to see more of was discussion on the virus. |
 |
| It's a terrible shame this is over already i wanted more. I have to say that that the Harekaze sinking after the girls got home makes it a trustworthy ship it sustained a lot of damage in the last fight. And the question is what will happen to the girls after this. Seeing what they pulled of they will have a pretty bright future ahead of them. |
| That's the power of Musashi. Even they backfire have done the pretty much damage on Harekaze. And yeah, that's one epic battle moment especially after other ship came for the help. Even when I'm not a really big fan of ship-type Military genre anime, it really worth it to see until the last episode. |

| Nice ending and quite enjoyable series in general. Poor Harakaze, but on the other hand I am quite surprise it survived that long... |
 |
| This was one of the funnest animes of the season to watch Titanic 2.0, when they all saluted at the end, it really tugged my heart strings 7/10 will be missed |
| The ship sank only after the captain disembark... Misaki's luck was holding the ship till port? |
| I guess plot armor wasn't strong enough to fill all those leaky holes in the Harekaze.... and why did it not sink in open water? Heck, why wouldn't the ship be salvaged when it's docked next to a harbor? Oh the shit that they come up with for the "impact". |
HESTIA   APPROVES |

Oh the shit that they come up with for the "impact". lol One Piece flashbacks from this, that was a really good ending, one of the better this season. 7/10 |
| That finale battle was really fucking awesome I want a second season or maybe a movie like how Girls und Panzer did RIP Harekaze you performed splendidly these past 12 weeks. I shall never forget you T_T  |
 |
| I did not expect the Harekaze sinking at port. It was like waiting for everyone to land before taking its last breathe. Or maybe Mike's luck hold it out. Sad to see it go. It was the 2nd home for the girls. It was a short but fun ride. One of my favorite anime this season. 7/10 |
| Good ending :( for it ending. Best anime of this season. |
Harekaze is da real mvp. T^T7 |
 |
| Top 10 saddest anime deaths. Harekaze. Better put respect on that name. Shit episode. Not enough Machii. Jk, but they did a ship raid. Why didnt we get to see Machii kick more ass. Anyways it was an extremely fun anime and one of my favorite this season. And Machii best girl this season |
| Grimgar season 2 please!!!! |

Heck, why wouldn't the ship be salvaged when it's docked next to a harbor? Oh the shit that they come up with for the "impact". Err well, the ship was probably being sustained by the crew during the voyage. When they disembarked no one was doing damage control and probably sank that way which is kind of stupid why no one immediately boarded to take over. But that's such a minor thing. Also the anime never said if it was salvaged or not, though it definitely can. The anime is pretty good IMO, not as good as GuP though. When it first started I thought it would be better but as it went on; it felt like it ran out of juice between the main plot and saving Musashi. They boarded as newbies and disembarked as veterans. |

laczy90 said: That's bomb in the end, at the first glance looked like a kaiten. I am really happy I was wrong. The anime otherwise was enjoyable for me, I can image a second season if it sell well. I actually never heard of a Type 4 naval rocket, it also lacked fins. TBH it looked like a conventional round with rocket power on it... So maybe thrust vectoring to make it spin? Anyways, I know there is a anti-tank Type 4 rocket but never heard of a naval one that could be launched via a rail and remote control. In fact one that big? Big as a depth charge rack? There was an IJN naval AA rocket but never heard of an anti-ship one or whatever that is for. Maybe it's fictional? |
|
| I actually thought this episode was the best and the ending was really well done, RIP Harekaze :( man sometimes ships "death" are more sad than actual character deaths lol... 7/10, it was an enjoyable ride. |
 |
| Welp, that's the end. it was an enjoyable and fun series overall. the plot/story wasn't really impressive imo, but i think it's okay. just a little bit addition to make the show more interesting and fun to watch i guess xD a little bit disappointed imo cause it's my fault for having a very high hopes that this anime would turned out to be like girl und panzer but yeah.....either way i still enjoyed it so much even tho i think either character relationship and development or story aren't really that impressive and interesting, but i still enjoyed it. the way they combine SoL with ships and cute girls, that's what i find it enjoyable, moreover with that kind of animation. they make the ship action into CGI and pour all the rest of the budget into the 2d animation. i like that xD 9/10 from me but not solid. more spesifically, 8.6/10 it was a fun ride. i wish it was more than 12 eps ;_; R.I.P Harekaze btw, the MVP of this episode. #respect I feel sad for Harekaze but it didn't make me cry. |

| Totally unexpected sad ending Definitely needs sequel or movie, although I was hoping this would be more serious and thrilling like in 1st episode |

| Normally, I'd rate this favorably. But at some point in the last few episodes the captain started to rub me the wrong way so badly, it made watching this unbearable. Everything else is good. It's a damn shame. |

| Aye, we got to see our German girl again <3. All those ships against one ship, though. Talk about some serious shit. But damn, this finale did deliver. The battle did not disappoint and that reunion was sweet. Good finale. Enjoyable show. 8/10. RIP Harekaze. You did well. |
  |
| Man, I'm glad I stuck with this show. It was definitely one of the lowkey jewels of the season. Very good build up and we all know the climax was coming when the OP was playing. I'd actually love to see a second season of this but the feels with Harekaze...RIP. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| If someone died or badly injured it'd be better. I guess I can't expected that, it's too much to ask for. They went with the Girl und Panzer's approach even they have more potential. At least the sinking of Harakaze helps save the show a bit. Why they left the virus's origin part? Do they hope to put it in the 2nd season? or Did they just run of out time slot? Overall, It's a fun ride but very damn ciche and predictable. 6-7/10 |

| well I'm going to be the one post so far that is direct opposite of everything above. I really really did not like this show. A rip of the all girl military cast shows before it and, imo, it just sucked. Hated the cast, there were a couple pieces of repeated music bits that were just so bad, wasn't cute, wasn't funny, and ship battles weren't great. Again it all boils down to the cast for this show. Idk what it was exactly but damn I could not get behind these girls. They all were annoying and not cute. Obv this is not shared by the community at large (and I'm a moe/sol/cgdct fan). |
| They went with out with a bang. That was a good finale. >.< Misaki finally seeing Moeka. That hug. Very sad to see the Harekaze go down. I wish we get an OVA of an epilogue, where the Harekaze crew will all be awarded with honour or maybe even a new ship. Fully enjoyed the series. |

| skipped ep 9,10 and 11 then jumped right to watch the final ep 12. didn't feel anything lacking. 6/10 |
| Definitely one of the better shows of the season. The animation was good, the battles were good and the ships were authentic. The plot wasn't too deep but hey this is a "moe girls on ships" show and they did a good job with what they had to work with. I was not expecting the ship to sink at the end. I would gladly watch a 2nd season but it probably won't happen. Anyway 8/10 and I'll miss this one. |
| one of the biggest surprises of the season for me expected just a CGDCT ended up with some plot! while it wasn't as serious as i wanted they made it work besides the silly virus aspect. This show is follows the Girl und Panzer formula to the teeth so if you aren't a fan of that type show i can see how you could not end up liking this 7.5 ship waifus /10 will watch a season 2 for sure,Harekaze 2.0! |
 |
| damn...even tho this anime isnt great or anything, since this is my type of anime i enjoyed it so much it's nice to see Moka and Mike together again, and hell...that Harekaze sinking scene was beautiful |
| Man what happened to the hype that episode 11 left us with. Hypefuri sank in this episode :/ Was hoping for the Principal to bring out Yamato ; _ ; Nonetheless I gave it a 7.5/10 but MAL doesn't allow decimals so I'll round it down to 7/10. |
 |
| One of the more surprising anime this season. I came in expecting an average SoL and got a very enjoyable anime. the Yuri tones were a big plus in my book too |

| Another good anime ends I love the Naval Warfare I really like misaki in this episode RIP Harekaze you have done a great job battling stronger ship than you *salute* Hope it get another season or an OVA that will show us what happened to the remaining mouse at the wild |

| This series was the real surprise for me this season, enjoyed it a lot. Solid through all episodes, being for me the best this last episode. Well deserved 9/10 for me |
| Perfect ending for the anime, I'm happy that the girls are all alive. The scene where the Harekaze sank was beautiful. High School fleet is very good, I especially like the realism of the show and the different characters. Mike has fulfilled her role perfectly, I'm proud of her. With Kiznaiver, High School fleet is my second surprise of the season. Very good anime. |
| Definitely an underdog show of the season. Kept tossing back and forth whether I was even going to pick this show up at the beginning of the season. The synopsis didn't really offer much insight, and I didn't know if I was getting into some GuP or KanColle type stuff or something entirely different. Absolutely glad I picked it up and stuck through it. They balanced everything really well; managing to keep a relatively serious tone for most of the show, but not forgetting to break off into SoL and moe moments every now and again to give a character (or characters) some time develop themselves. The naval battles were pretty cool, and although there were of course many fictional aspects of the show, they did seem to try and keep some semblance of a foothold in reality and realistic scenarios: the equipment always being strained/breaking, running out of supplies, manually aiming weapons and using tactical maneuvers, using naval jargon and communications and such. It just seemed like they did an excellent job of mixing in a fuck ton of very real naval aspects while still blending it with some lighthearted and silliness. 8/10 Definitely wouldn't mind another season. Kind of hard to top an epic final battle against an ally ship infected with a virus about ready to bombard civilian port areas, but if they can think of something I'd definitely watch it. |
