Man, I really want to know what's going on but the mystery so far is great. What I'm thinking is that every ship lost communication and the messages they've been receiving are just nothing but manipulation to cause each ship to think it's being targeted for mutiny or that another ship is so that they'll turn on each other. I can't wait to find out the bigger picture of this plot.

Finally some insight into what the hell is actually happening. So the German ships all received communications breakdown and started mutinying as well, eh?

Love the tactics that they pulled for this episode. Sounds straight out of some naval battle novel.

Wonder how the Principal is going to cover for them when they get back to school...

I'm glad I found this anime. It's getting even more and more interesting and I'm starting to see what's going on.

But still, man, poor girls.

Thanks LunarCrusade for the translations!! One would think that following Kantai Collection for the last 3 years would have imprinted the kanji of the ships' names in my mind a bit more than what it is now.


You're welcome. :)
Well, I play KC, but didn't watch the anime. I heard it was sucks.


Also, position of the ships on the map keeps bugging me. It's like Musashi was chasing/scaring off most of them or those ships were running away from Musashi. It is just my personal opinion, though.
To make it worse, one more battleship, Hiei, also had her communication line severed. Two big ships, synchronous accident. Fishy enough.

I agree that the incident is far deeper than a mere mutiny/communication lost case. I'm on the "mass mind control" theory, since the mutiny on the Admiral Spee occured when all electronic devices going off. Something like a massive electrical-brainwave jammer involved? Maybe...
Well, I only can make speculations.

Anyway, the tactical battle is always amusing since episode 1. And Wi-chan! At last, she's awake.
4/5 for episode 3. My only complaint is... same with Smudy said, please go fully serious already. (._.)

Quite satisfied with the episode, compared to the previous year is a bit subdued, but this is due to the fact of not giving me any convincing answers durations explanations about how it has come to that situation. Pretty good action during the clash, the designs are quite good in quality, CG very good. convincing enough naval tactics, Munetani is increasingly the leaders of the situation, even if unintentionally, however this does not detract from that of Akeno. Fun character Kouko with its interludes.

Well at least the whole world isn't against them now, that is a plus... Will they get to the bottom of this large scale conspiracy? It's always a treat to see some legitimate battle tactics in fiction.

Who are you? Wut..

There is always a hatch around that position to overlook the sea when the submarine surfaces.
It's also common for the captain to open that hatch right after the ship surfaces the check if anything happened so my guess is that the one you are seeing is the captain.
Speaking of submarines and WW2 ones in particular as the girls mentioned the where crammed and it often smelled in them.
They where often away for weeks and they where not known for there sanitary facilities crewman often went without washing themselves for their entire sorties.
To make matters worse it was often pretty warm in them and the engine bay was very dirty.
So the smell was terrible in them.
It takes a special kind of people to man a submarine especially a WW2 one so i am not surprised that they are only manned by boys.

Another thing that might be worth mentioning is that the average of US submarine crew during WW2 was between 18 and 21 years old the oldest person on board was usually the captain and they where not much older.
So for a submarine to be manned by highschool boys isn't that far from the WW2 reality.
Yeah with that, at first i thought "isn't that just some equipment?" but when i looked at other scenes there was definitely nothing there on the model in any other shot. That's really sneaky, i wonder what the story behind that is, or if it's just meant to signify the captain checking stuff.

This show intrigues me and makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside at the same time. Yet I don't feel that it clashes too much. Sure everything is cute, but there is a certain gravitas to everything that happens.

Definitely some mysterious forces at work here. After Wilhelmina's account of what happened on her ship, I'm wondering if the Harekaze's decision to shut down electronic communications after the first attack may have insulated them from whatever's caused the other ships to go haywire...

I totally thought that they had straight up killed a whole sub's worth of highschool boys with that depth charge for a second.

I'm definitely with the mind control theory, the entire of the German ship's crew all mutinying at the same time would suggest something like mind control is going in. This anime is really dragging me in, I didn't expect anything like this when I started watching it hahaha.

Nice. a fight between Harekaze and I-202, submarine. enjoyable episode overall, i really like it, especially the fight.

so the problem is Revolt ? looking foward to it anyway.
i wonder what happened to Musashi.
not saying this show is bad but this show could be way more better if they put Sci-fi and Thriller in the genre.

The episode in itself was enjoyable but I wish if we would get some insight on what happened to other ships too especially Musashi. Oh well, we have plenty of episodes left so I'll be patient.

"If offered resistance they will be sunk?!!!"
How can they issue such order against students like that? That's pretty messed up if you ask me. Also Maritime Safety Support Department declared to treat it as a large scale Insurrection if Harekaze's incident cannot be solved within the school. So I am guessing someone in there may be pulling the strings of the ships who mutinied. Hell he/she could even be the mastermind of this coup d'état against the school.

That's some mad-typing skills she got there. or maybe that's normal and im just clumsy.

I've been meaning to ask if all the destroyer's engines are like that or it is just the Harekaze who needs repair after every fight. They haven't be able to run it at its max since the first fight and are being held back by it. It could prove a fatal weakness if they are to fight more than one enemy.

the ship suffered an engine failure before they got attacked by the instructor ship which damaged the ship in the process

and the skirmish with the Graf Spree prob have damaged the engine to some degree so it only able to run less than half capacity and was able to run below normal cruising speed.

So that's why. I thought it was out because of being at full capacity in the first fight. -__-'

This anime is great. Great battles, no unnecessary fan services, interesting story. Can't wait for more.

I don't think so. The anime seems to be faithful on maps, even though they modify it a bit my putting those islands nearer to the large islands. Those islands are actually islands but submerged islands. Search Myojin Sho, Sofu Gan, Sumisu Shima, and Io To (or iwo jima) at Google Maps. Those are the actual locations and they are nearer to Japan than Marianas. It may have less resemblance to the map of Haifuri, but Marianas have much lesser resemblance. And the names I mentioned are written on the Haifuri map.
The whole island groups below are collectively called as Nanpo Islands. Haifuri map has a label of the islands which is read Na*po Shoto.

Compare the HaiFuri map and the map above.
1.)Ogasawara islands (shima) compose of Mukojima, Chichijima, and Hahajima island groups. These islands resemble the east side of the haifuri map.
2.)Iwo Jima is Io To's popular name outside Japan. We can read that the name of the southernmost part of the haifuri map is Io To.

wow good catch

so i guess if they were to head back to Tokyo from their current location it will still take 2 to 3 days at their current nerfed speed.

That is considering if they didnt meet with more of the ships "Shoot first, talk later"

Well, if I'm a submarine trying to quietly stalk a destroyer and then they suddenly ping'ed me with sonars I'd be sure pissed in my pants, lol

I had a hunch that the subs were panicking, they probably having the same problem of losing contact with HQ and heard of mutiny everywhere, they didn't know who is a friend or foe, that's probably why they stalk Harekaze, otherwise they would already shoots our lolis ships the moment they notice them as they clearly stands out in the night sea.

Another problem I think is the food supply. I don't know much on what amount of food supply real-life naval people put into ships, but I don't think they have food supply that will last before they go back to the school. But they may be able to fish.

i found this good read about Navy cooks

https://www.qsrmagazine.com/store/how-you-feed-navy

typically fresh food lasts up to 10 days.

but when deployments take months long, then they start making things from scratch.

and the food supply depends on the storage space they have just for food. so i guess if they were only training at best the girls only have 1 week of food only.

Great fight against I-201. Nicer night water, beautiful splashes when the sub rose.
Some questions answered, but more mysteries about the large scale ploy. German girl confirms mutiny & similar equipment malfunctions as Harekaze. 7 ships went MIA (+1 for Graph Spee), 8 ships remain. So someone planned for half the ships to fight the other half. Except other schools also seem to be in a free for all.
Cute sharkie & room lol.

This show has shown itself to be pretty fun and enjoyable, but the battle in this episode was just too ridiculous. A submarine, especially one from WW2, would only have one shot against a destroyer. They either should have engaged when they first as the destroyer or just get away. It also looks like they're not using oxygen torpedoes because the ones in the anime have a clear bubble.
