I'm pretty afraid that MI translates into Midway. Looking that up was ... disheartening. I just hope they aren't that 1:1 historically accurate - but seeing how they were with Kisaragi too I'm a little bit afraid.

Edit: Oops, I totally forgot about the actual episode. *cough*

Well, I actually like the re-modelling. It's subtle - imho it fits Fubuki's character. Didn't like the Yuudachi-remodel though. Especially the eye color change.

That Fubuki remodel was the biggest waste of time ever. Kinda made the rest of the episode feel entirely pointless as well when she is basically exactly the same as before.

Ah shame on the remodeling for Fubuki, but atleast she will be a bit stronger now?
But even still, her hard work payed off!

Quite excited for the final episodes and the fights *.*

1. Mutsuki worrying about fubuki made me all giddy inside. Yuri vibes ftw

2. Fubuki only worked hard to get her chest remodeled, not her gears

Oh well Fubuki did not change much sadly... I kind of already expected that from how Nagato talked about her. This series will most likely leave a hole in my heart after it has ended... I will miss Kongou ;_;

I wonder what made Akagai choose Fubuki as her escort.. she couldn't possibly have heard their conversation from the cliff.

That´s Fubuki´s remodeling? Somewhat isappointing. I expected a new look like Yuudachi got last week. Well, maybe she´s stronger now?

No Kongou this time... ;3;

Anyway, I´m looking forward for the final episodes. It´s time to fight! I´m afraid someone will sink next week...
Holy Madoka! The Yuri is strong here!

That battle with Fubuki being so captivated by the idea of remodeling, I liked how she didn't evolve from that as it just wasn't the right way to achieve something.

Admiral's dream does look pretty interesting, haha.

Fubuki getting chosen to be Akagi's escort after testing her. The music was really cool and how she managed to still hit that last plane with the forces working against her. Akagi respecting Fubuki's determination and continuing to the end!

Slightly disappointed on her remodel but looking forward to her being the center of the mission.

Dem Mutsu X Nagato vibes though! I totally ship them! :3

Fubuki got what she deserved; being overconfident in her abilities and recklessness almost killed her there. Actually, she would've died if she wasn't the main character.

So that commander called Fubuki alone before and said he saw her in a dream? Ah, poor guy was probably getting ready to initiate his "HaremColle Keikaku." XD

Remodeled Fubuki looks exactly the same, except she got new equipment. Why does she yearn for Oppai though? Commander is no longer in the show. Well, unless if she has hots for Akagi and wants to get in some Yuri action, then that's a different story.

Average episode. Need more screentime for other characters. Bucky doesn't interest me much.

I feel the same, but MI probably is Midway, im afraid too, too 2 of my favorites characters have a huge death flag. But at the same time i want see Fubuki in action people who play the game said Fubuki Kai is so strong.

I enjoyed the training montages that Fubuki went through in this episode and the trial that Akagi put her through was great

Other than that I'm really disappointed by Fubuki's remodeling.....It looks so plain, boring and vastly underwhelming. Talk about a huge letdown/deflation of hype -_- She better be loads stronger otherwise meh

I am now hopeful that this time Akagi will survive battle of MI considering Fubuki is involved and how Admiral think that Fubuki will be the key also as the MC Fubuki's effort should not be in vain. Moreover, it seems they have an idea that their communication code has been cracked which caused IJN to suffer devastating defeat in Midway battle well, at this point its obvious that MI is Midway. I am looking forward to last two episode.

Actually, the blue parts of her uniform (skirt included) was supposed to turn black after her remodeling according to the game =/
IDK, maybe she'll be like "I modified my uniform for the sake of change" next episode... Hopefully... I don't see why they would avoid a simple recolor...

Bucky surprised me this episode. She got way too obsessed about being remodeled. The training she was doing was fine. But to go out of position to try to defeat the enemy by herself is out of character for her.

If that dream of Fubuki wearing the white dress expressing her "love" to the incompetent teitoku is a outright sarcasm to the fan base, that would give me a new respect for the production team; not only they are so detached from what the fans wanted, they have the balls to tell their fans "Yes it is what I thought you all wanted, I'm so genius!" if not, that's still a sloppily done scene that someone has the brilliant idea of after hearing the word "waifu", so why not put the Kanmusume in the white dress? It's insultingly bad. It can't be redone. Besides the lack of passion and dedication from everyone involve in the production we also have to bear the embarrassingly and stupidly made business practice by someone who clearly doesn't understand a bit about otaku culture and storytelling still have to leave his shit stain everywhere it's easily the worst anime of this season. That is the death of an anime, the people making it doesn't give a fuck. How hard it is to make a show like what you said "70% SoL, and 30% action"? Please, whoever made that call to kill off Kisaragi stay away from the anime industry forever, we don't need you. OP-kun and ED-kun deserve better.

Anticlimactic remodel is anticlimactic.

Ok, so Fubuki manages to defeat one wave of enemies out of the 20 times she got her ass handed to her. That's not really comforting if she's going to be an escort.

Admiral why. You have Shimakaze, Kongou, and the perfect Nagato there, why waste time on Fubuki.

It's a shame they made Mutsu yuri-fied. It's such a waste.

It was an ok episode. Kind of "eh".

All that hype for nothing. Well Fubuki wouldn't be Fubuki if Fubuki's apperance was changed. However, the least she could have gotten was a bit more armor and weapons.

That level grinding, Fubuki has that determination that no one else has. She's like forget the sinking, I'm going to get stronger regardless of the consequences.

Akagi ftw

Nice new side of Akagi. It's not always a quiet and relaxed Akagi. Here she was dead serious. She told Fubuki to stand up which surprised Kaga as she's the one who told Fubuki to take the test.

Blame Shibafu, (Main illustrator for Fubuki) his/her works is always underwhelming.
http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Glossary#List_of_vessels_by_artist
I've already complained about her looks the first time the game introduced to her 2nd remodel.
-She didn't look different, in this case there's nothing on her new design that really screams "KAI-NI", at least with Soryu and Hiryu they get cool headbands.
-She totally looks like another ship girl, in this case Ayanami http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Ayanami
-What makes her an important ship is just the "anti aircraft fire detector" that in game will trigger a cut-in animation to counter Aircrafts. So she actually got "new weapons", but one is so significantly small it's just underwhelming.

A little disappointed but not really surprised over the remodel.
Still, the remodel may not have been what she wanted but becoming Akagi's escort is a bigger dream come true. Hard work and determination is the way.

I believe that Fubuki deserves a better remodel than she has now. Its definitely underwhelming.

I know that what her Kai Ni 2 looks like but I was hoping the anime staff would deviate from it and make it what a remodel should be like Yuudachi.

Not gonna lie, I really don't see that happening. Or maybe it's that I really don't want that to happen. I want happiness and success in the last 2 episodes!

PS. Looking up the battle of midway will make it very clear what the above poster means. Do not look up if you do not want to be potentially spoiled.

So all these weird fleet rearrangements have been solely to grind the TTK's chosen waifu to lvl 99 as quickly as possible.

Yeah, with all those flags we'll probably be heading into very dark territory for the next e-poi-sode. Speaking of which, this ep. probably had the lowest poi-count in the series...

Yeah, about that. Personally, she seems to be neutral about it, like, not being head over heels about the Admiral and stuff. Which I like, since I didn't come here for the romance (alhtough I'm sure Fubuki fans would squeal anyway).
I prefer to see her as a hardworking girl for the fleet in general.

And after everything is over, the remaining girls who managed to survive get sent off to the Abyssals, in which they become slaves for the rest of their lives.

I honestly like this episode. Blame my yuri fetish since I ship Kaga/Akagi so hard and will not let a single scene of those two slipped.

I'm actually a little disappointed too with Fubuki's remodeling. It turns out...the same. But, nontheless, I still like her :) even though I still think it's a little unfair when Yudachi's remodel was much more interesting.

So.. next episode will certainly have death flags. I need to prepare my #shipperheart...

[LONG MESSAGE INCOMING]
First i wanna say hello everyone im fresh/newbie here :)

Regarding this episode i was expecting it to be focused on Fubiki and im glad that we got to see a few funny moments (the moon ruining that yuri vibe) and Kaga noticing Fubuki running past Akagi and saying hey look she just ran past you is that normal? lol

What i really enjoyed was that special "test" they did with Fubuki.. it seemed like Nagato wasnt sure as to why she was vital and not to mention she isnt as powerful as the other class ships so that part was interesting i know it looks painful to see the main girl suffer but it had to happen i mean serious she isnt really equipt for carrier / air battle and only has 2 AA cannons so this gave her a good opportunity to show her true skills on the field. Awakening to her senses so to speak.

As for the remodeling.. honestly i was expecting her to look like this http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140523042236/kancolle/images/1/1d/Fubuki_(Kantai_Collection)_full_1677189.jpg

(not sure if image will show) but yea that was my assumption but it felt like the creators teased (trolled) us with the minimal appearance.. but i hope she has more firepower now.. im expecting her to have at least abit more of an advantage now.. but we will have to see next episode

Also i do have a sneaking suspicion that 1 or 2 ships are going to get badly injured or sunk? im not sure who but this is my assumption so far.. i reckon the likely ship to get sunk is Fubuki's close friend (Mutsuki) so far she hasnt had a remodel yet and also we havent seen her skills yet on the field.. also i havent seen any training scenes with her involved it feels like shes been left out of the loop.. i have a feeling something bad is gonna happen with her sooner or later.. and fubuki is gonna go crazy when it does happen lol

Reading this thread almost everyone was disappointed with fubuki's remodel. I thought people already knew that she isn't going to change much because of the game. Anyway her Anti Air stats is high so she should be able to help.

It kind of felt like Fubuki wasn't the only one trying too hard in this episode. Not a bad one, but several aspects seemed off, especially Fubuki's suicide run on that abyssal.

But more importantly: AF was the Japanese code for Midway. As soon as that was mentioned, I was looking for those death flags. Either they largely follow history and we get a very bloody battle with multiple characters going under without hurting the abyssals much, or they finally break from history. It'll be interesting to see which way it goes.
