The story was something I didn't really care off when I watched this anime, as I found out about it when I started playing a lot of World of Warships. I just wanted to see some sweet naval action. But the story altough I didn't care about it, it was pretty bad. This is one anime I like to refer to as Girls und Panzerish anime, where bunch of loli-ihs girls take control of Ships, Tank etc. And like GuP, the story is odd. I didn't catch up why do they train these girls in naval warfare and stuff but the main characters want to be these Blue mermaids who do some naval missions.
Art was fine, it looked satisfying especially when the warfare was at hand. But otherwise it looked very, Dull. Thats the best word I can define it.
Sound, well I don't remember a single track from the OST as it was the typical goofy anime music most of the time, and the Opening and the Ending I skipped. They were boring.
Characters are the worst part by far, No enjoyment out of the characters what so ever. For me they might have even ruined the anime for me. I know its not actual military or anything like that but I think key to succesful crew (or one of them) is discipline, wich the ship Harekaze has none. The crew memebers can pretty much do anything and the Cpt doesn't care. And many characters were annoying overall. Only redeeming character was Munetani Mashiro who had some sort of idea how command structure works. (Also the German girl... The German naturally was awfull)
Enjoyment overall I would rate 6 as the characters were shit, Story was boring, animation when there were no battles was dull, But when battles came along the anime became enjoyable. Or atleast when the Cpt wasn't jerking around.
So the overall rating would be 5. As that is the average.
