This is a thread about Azur Lane.CN stream tomorrow, new event due 5/21! Pouty Ms. D!
I'm looking forward to the skin theme, the new event boats and the new child.I think that Lil NJ is the most likely one, but I wouldn't mind others either.
any final hopes and predictions before CN anni stream
>>1473390Any UR has a decent chance of getting it I think.>>1473399Richelieu party dress or oath skin, that is all
>>1473389>CN stream tomorrowIs there a link?
>>1473423https://live.bilibili.com/7761331
>>1473390>new childbut we just got Shinano-chan
>>1473450CN anni last year had another -chan too, so there is no reason to think we won't get another.
>>1473425Thanks
>same starting time as the GFL2 streamkek
>>1473460That's gonna be fun to see. Global Aether Gazer is also having a livestream at that time.
>>1473450They usually release a child bote for the children's day date in Japan (during Golden Week, late April) and in China (early June)
So after the 10 gig patch my Plymouth has her skill's pink bullets look way different.I don't want to redownload though
i think i will be here for the stream
What was usually the theme for skins on CN annivs? Party ones are for JP annivs, right?
>>1473778swimsuits usually
>>1473779I see, thanks
Chen Hai my beloved

Uuhhhh what is this?

well, that was nice
>>1473860did I miss anything? I guess I forgot to screen gear skins and shop stuff. are they introducing any gear in event shop?
here's the animation btwhttps://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1by411Y74CI should've recorded pic related while I had the chance...
>>1473882If they did I didn’t notice it, I only remember the gear lab update.
I’ll hope and say some of the more recent slip ups is because most of the effort was going into the 3D things we saw for the anni. Game has a lot of life left in it.
I see some mentions that they said PR7 botes by name.
So does the new 3d dorm stuff affect the rest of the game? Really hard to find translations or high-res pics from that stream.
>>1473866her weapon reminds me of the times I used to play DFO
>>1473882The 3D stuff, but I'm not sure if they're coming with the next few maintenances.
>>1473902Not that I could tell
>>1473907right, I forgot to mention all thatwhat was all that 3D stuff after Sirius? some new minigame, or just part of the new dorm? I loved it
https://bbs.nga.cn/read.php?tid=40202782Pastas getting a DR
can the stream be rewatched as a vod?
>No mention about the tower/roguelike/card battle mode. Maybe it got scrapped for real this time, in favor of those new dorm 3d things.
>>1473915big if true>>1473929not surprised, given the reception
>20 different facesI feel like oathing this dork
>>1473837>musashi gets a skin with tailscolour me surprised>it's a western style dresswhy
>>1473954>>it's a western style dressthat's the only surprise really, dishwasher hinted at this more than once. don't really like Musashi so it's w/e for me, but I can see why other people would be disappointed
>>1473960>>1473954>Musashi got wedding skin before Shinano.What a travesty.
>>1473960it feels really out of place to put one of the most important jp ships in a western style dress when about everyone else in her faction is wearing a proper kimono>>1473964hey, if ass window western style fucking meme dress is all they have for them then she got lucky to dodge it
>>1473968I guess dishwasher must have really wanted it in western style and manjuu caved in for whatever reason, cause Hai Tien's is still in line with chinese style
Nips have always had a mix of both styles, it’s kinda strange for me to see Musashi in a western dress though.
>>1473971thank you dishwasher for copy pasting designs, fucking boats with your self inserts and erasing culturevery cool
>>1473977>>1473971She's not exactly the only one with western wedding dress either way, there's also Atago and Azuma.
>2 URs, Vanguard rerun probably soon enough>26k cores and 1 bulinat least it's the only UR I'm missing now but damn, I'm yet to MLB UvH or Shinano
>>1473837>pasta skinNooo, we were so close to 1 year anniversary since the last skin
>>1473982Taihou and Noshiro too.I'll agree with the other anon that it's kind of weird seeing a Yamato class in a western style though.
>>1474014It’s okay newcutie, they’ll probably throw out a few more bullins
>>1473832>Brennus Nice, a sister for my wife San-Rui
>>1473805>takes off her mask>blushing nonstop
>>1473860I'm going to miss the current main menu UI just as much as the old original UI.
>>1474040Not really a fan of the new generic looking UI we are getting, but I guess it has to be done because the skins are getting bigger and bigger, and the current UI takes up half the screen itself.
>>1474040I like the new concept so much that I might not miss it too much desu
>>1474023There's always a few oddities out there, Noshiro also looks really out of place, and you have Aurora wearing a chinese traditional dress for no reason. I guess Manjuu just lets the artists do whatever they want with the wedding skins, as long as they don't trigger certain people out there.
>>1474058Aurora was at least sold or gifted to the Chinese, if I remember correctly.She mentions it in her in-game lines.
>>1473837>still no good lewd FDG skin>we get a FDG loli insteadwho fired the hag lovers at manjuu?
>>1474035Reminds me of taking Haku’s katana
>>1474073Someone took the daughter mom meme too far.
>>1474058>and you have Aurora wearing a chinese traditional dress for no reason>for no reasonreally, anon? did you even bother to check her lore, or at least trace a pattern based on her skins in general?
can't wait to kiss Alsace, on the lips
>St. Louis skinHas Cloud been freed from his kraut prison? Maybe the VV skin will happen soon.
>>1474150I'll believe it when I see it
>>1473917seconding this, couldn't find any vod of their past streams in their bilibili channel
>>1474150Getting tired of footfaggotry
>>1474150>kraut prisonLiterally don't care. Any art he makes is a gem.
>>1474040I wish they would at least give us the option to select what type of UI we want, especially since this will probably fuck up my muscle memory
>>1474192>taihou's comically big tits>hindenburg's sausage legs>gemssometimes I wonder if VV and co. not getting skins in forever isn't actually a blessing in disguise, he's become too autistic over background art and muh realistic style in detriment of the botes themselveswouldn't mind if some of them were redeemed by Littoriowoman or Kurumi
>>1474197Hindenburg's legs did get fixed iirc, either before release or shortly after.
>>1474197The new St. Louis skin looks so trashy it stops being hot into and plunges disgusting territory.
>>1474200it did, but this is not not the kind of thing that should have to get fixed to begin with
>>1474201Huh?
>>1474201I'll admit that it's kind of daring as a base pose.I would expect something like that more as an "alternative" one.
>Bismarck/Twirpitz/August in back, Friedrich Carl/___/Leipzig in frontI'm fairly certain Hindenburg is the piece I'm missing, but I'm about six gorillion blueprints away from that. So who's the second best option to round off my IB boss fleet?
>>1474217>boss fleetRoon Muse
Can't wait to see those giant tits in 3D
>first optiontook (Us) long enough
Not sure why, but recently I've felt the urge to record a lot of the in game content(story, secretary quests, ect). Not sure exactly how I would want to archive it though.
did something happen in /vmg/? im seeing a lot of threads that i follow get archieved, like some "big" thread sentenced to this place or something like that?also later ill report what i found after the last update on al main server (jp)
>>1474364one schizo was bumping all dead threads and spamming gimmick threads. this place is slowly turning into /v/mg/
future is looking bright (half size because full is 9mb)https://www.bilibili.com/opus/932502919689797689?spm_id_from=333.999.0.0well like i sad i was planning in writting a wall of text about the update but the tldr is>al was working on some old version of unity(2015/16 probably, remember al is a 2017 gaem), they keep on working using this as a base making it pseudo-custom over the years ovecompared to other games>al is officially a big game now, meaning they just updated to a newer/latest(?) version of unity to prepare for more alive lane cotent>99% sure most development is done at jp headquarters meaning the jp only loading issue( dont know about chink/snowflake chink/gook)also in case youre not aware, al works now flawlessly on mumu x/12/whatever was the name of the lastest version but this also means it >should work great again on nebula (im mostly talking about colour banding/transparency issues)
>>1474409I've had it running for almost 7 hours straight on MuMu and I haven't had that memory leak/white box crash. So game is great.
its not like im him but if you needed some pr**falso in case youre another >oldfag like me that started on jp, you still need to switch the phone/emu to jp language to properly run al >>1474411>memory leak/white box crashon new mumu or nebula?latest version of nebula suffered that issue i believe, mumu 12 solved it but still had the colours issue which is now gone since it seems it was a client issue and not the emus fault( i suspect that most emus keep on getting fixed for new games meaning old stuff like al got fucked by those changes)
>>1474417I believe I am on 12, I'd only get it after a few hours of letting it auto through the dailies.
in case you were not aware or just blind to the issue, a simple comparison>>1474420if youre up to date then last update everything turned into chink because they forgot to add eng or somethinghttps://www.mumuplayer.com/update/3.8.3 is latest eng version (im on the newest one, chink client running jp lang, funny stuff)also is anyone still interested in a somewhat updated version of the emu guide? if you understood the old nebula guide you can more or less apply it to mumu 12 toothe only different/shady thing about 12 is that the setup is self-extract with a random folder filename so you cant easly track down the source to block exes via firewall so you just need to open the setup with 7z and extract it by hand, the rest is more or less the same
>>1474430it looks like it's still present in second pic around the bottom area, just not as prevalentalso, it might still be an emu issue. pic related on an old version of Bluestacks (5.11.5etc, couple years old I think). I don't feel like updating because it was kinda easy to debloat and I don't wanna update it and risk breaking things, really hate messing with emulators
>>1474409loli's head is too big
i need the vod of the stream, i need to make anchorage webms
>>1474445youre right it has been a while but you made me check againi had vulkan on because most of the time it works better but i just switched and tried dx for the first time in the new al version so i can confirm that mumu 12 ver 3.8.18 makes the game look great again (i totally forgot how al was meant to look like 2bh)>>1474457there was a way to extract the link of the bilibili live vod but i forgot about it, ill see if i can manage to get it out again somehow, ill upload the cuterage manjuu video and the al anni trailer after trhis post
>>1473860>METAs get their own special dock spaceHoly fucking shit
>>1473837>Tosa skinWell that's one down.Where's my KGV skin
https://gofile.io/d/zEyffCthe videos i mentioned are here, max quality of coursepassword is the filename of the second image itt after opening it
>>1474409Chen Hai's tits almost look bolted on
>>1474197I like how you're being gay enough to complain about tits, but also acknowledge it as realistic in the same post. Got something else to complain about?
>>1474518do you really think the "lol ur gay if u don't liek le HUGE tits" works in a game that basically throws big (but nice looking) tits at you? I wouldn't be playing this game to begin with. further, she suddenly bordered Kashino tier without the soft look to them.>heh you acknowledge it as realistic ;)) so you-if only you kept reading for like 5 more words instead of trying to twist the clear meaning of my words like an obnoxious faggot
I'm in danger
I hope St. Louis actually smiles in her L2D because the base expressions don't seem to have her doing that.
>>1474778Its weird because Lou is a real sweetheart, but the only two skins that get that across visually are her first two skins.
I haven't bought skins in a while but>St. Louis>Alsace>Mogador>Emden>TosaWill have to see that other SSR's swimsuit but she seems indistinguishable from other white hairs we've been getting too much of.
>>1474780WHERE IS IT
>>1474781>St. Louis>Alsace>Mogador>Tosa>Kursk>Tashcunny>ScyllaPlus rings so I can catch up on my oaths
>>1474784
>>1474518its the same nigger from the other thread, notice how he dropped a couple of these shitposts itt when theres no more than 20 anons in here, its really noticeablejust dont reply and ignore, thats his worst nightmare after all
>>1474781for me, it's Alsace and Scylla depending on their lines. Scylla is just perfect post-oath, might be hard to top
>>1474818NTA, I haven't been to /alg/ in like a month or now now. Is that really one of his shitposts now? If you don't like inflated tits you are gay?
>>1474822I think Scylla looks the best in her maid uniform.
decided to test these three torp autists togetherUnzen's max has been 335k so far; Implacable didn't even have time to land her last airstrikefucking lmao
>>1474832Rock strong
>>1474835rock's paradoxically soft rocks...
Brennus' skin is nice but those expressions are lacking. Safe skip.
>>1474501they released the anni stream vod so i ripped and uploaded it here (the big file in there of course)im not in the mood for more so i expect some hq webms being posted here
>>1475124I might make some tomorrow, need to find a decent program to do it though.
Please tell me they'll finally add French fleet tech
>>1475265they mentioned nothing about additional fleet tech sadly
>>1474637I'M IN DANGER
>>1474637>>1475435Why are you afraid of a hardcore M?
>>1474501>>1475124I have to be a turbo retard. I cannot get it open.
>>1475553is she really?in that case, SHE's in danger
How much difference is there between 120 and 125?
>>1475636The difference is that when you do the "end game" content, you aren't taking as much damage due to being so many levels below what you are fighting.
>>1475636botes take/deal 2% less/more damage per level diff, eva/hit rates are also slightly affectedthere's also stat diff
>>1474040you're in luck, anonhttps://azurlane.yo-star.com/news/2024/05/20/maintenance-notice-5-21-12-a-m-utc-7-2/>Updated main menu UI. After this maintenance, Commanders can freely choose to use the new version or the old version of the main interface UI.
>last optionfucking kek
>>1476181I’ve never needed more proof that SKK is literally me.
>>1476168it doesn't refer to the very first version, just the current one
>wishing well's cut off is before 2024/3/21>princeton was made permanent on 2024/3/21Noooo, my +1 Carrier RLD.
>>1476310There is always EN anni bro
>>1476320I know but I wanted it now, I'm only missing her and the pass METAs.Maybe I'll pick something from the Heavy or Light pool and keep her+Kashino for the EN anni.
I felt bad about not getting Helena's swimsuit to match with her sister, plus Honolulu, but after seeing that L2D preview I think I can skip St. Louis' swimsuit.Hate the emphasis on feet, certainly isn't worth the L2D pricetag. Going all in for the crazy frenchies' swimsuits
>>1476549I think I am sold
>>1476550dios mio
>>1476563a very horny frog
they keep getting away with these skins and it's fucking based, but how do they do it time and again?
>>1476591probably bribes, or there is some loop hole they are using like only selling the skins for a few days.
Couldn't tell the mask was just her hair wings covered her eyes.
>one of the scrapped design was Sanrui 2.0
>>1476665The big cross-mace resembled Gascogne too.
>>1476667The top right one is basically adult Gascogne. The one they picked at the end is more like a mix between Gascogne and Champagne
>>1476665the outfit reminds me of bani's, I would've loved it
>>1476665don't know why, but I think the bottom two scrapped defaut outfits were better than the one we got
>>1476676I agree. The leotard would have been better than just Gascogne's dress again.
Today is the launch day of my friend (wife) Algérie.
>>1476826happy birthday to a great friend (wife)
who the girls in new title's art
>first 10 pull got AlslutsNaturally, since this isn't a burger event
>still can’t get inLET ME ROLL MY WIFE ALREADY DAMMIT
damage report>150 pulls>1 Alsace, took me 143>3 Brennus>3 Béarn-METAs>1 Takao>1 Howe>1 Littorio>1 Richelieu>5 Fleuretsalso holy crap, it's seriously laggy
>Miss D is the first character to outright say who you were, and she is the only one who remembers you>Intro is Anzeel? basically saying she wants you take over for her in her death.
150 rollsI can max out Brennus just from dupesI'm really not feeling the new UI
The UI just feels too damn small
>>1477135honestly thank god they allowed an option to switch back to the previous UI
I'm drowning in a sea of Brennus.
Managed to get both the new botes and who I picked from the wishing well in 240 cubes or so, pretty nice.
Got everyone but Alsace was the 160th roll. 71 cubes left, hopefully I can recover for the next event.
Mon dieu, what are they feeding these frogs...
Story is rather interesting this time around.
>>1477145How do you change back?I think the new UI is currently bugged where I can't even see textboxes for my secretaries.
>>1477185The text boxes started working for me randomly, but scroll down to the bottom of options and you will see it.
>>1477185its in the options menu, you should find it on the left side
>>1477187>>1477186Thanks.Some of the "wider" skin art definitely benefit from using up the whole screen and not have them be obscured by the UI but the "taller" skins aren't having that luxury without me being able to zoom into their boobs and crotches.
>>1477197I saw some post earlier that some people are being hired to optimize some of the skins? Not exactly sure how it is but maybe the older skin optimizations might be coming soon too.
>>1477198It feels like a resolution mismatch than anything else. If they can somehow optimize that then I'll welcome it by all means.
So how do you take Alsace's mask off?
spoonfeeding botes
>Cuddling on the floatie>Lou offering to dress you to meet the commission fleet returning>Putting lotion on each otherLou's skin is really romantic, alongside her non-verbal "fuck my ass" signaling but damn does the feet emphasis ruin it.
this A/C stage track goes hard
>>1477238Lou is always really romantic, its nice.
robutt gathering
>>1477208Probably have to raise her affinity to love like Gascogne before.
>>1477279Cute
>>1477290at least this event has a few funny bits (one or two probably being unintentional) to keep me through the usual word salad
is there no way to keep the towel off, when she goes back to the main pose? her hand there is annoying plus she doesn't speak.
>>1477293Where are her secret touch spots?
>>1477248>>1477250Sheesh. The boats are real horny nowadays.
>>1477297Lou was inviting you for some tender lovemaking since her last good skin.
>>1477294touch her ass, she will count up to six everytime you touch her ass, then touch her hand or head and she will change the pose for every number
>>1477300>six different posesAh fuck, I might actually buy this after all
spooky...
she's RAPING me in front of the children
>>1477292what we really need are more CGs to sell the story vibes better, whether cool, dramatic, scary, or sadYou don't have to read to see, that’s “show, don't tell”
>>1477302The sixth is actually a pose editor, it's her normal one but you can move a bit the legs, ass and head.
Watching Alsace trot across the map on her horse is kinda entertaining
The UI is neat but it isn't the best for a lot of skins while it does work for a couple.I'll keep the old on for now, mostly because it seems to make the game lag less.
>buy luckybag>obviously get the none of the four L2Ds but for the least memorable bote from the eventAt least the loli with the HUGE SWORD is cool, the redhead was the worst possible roll.
>>1477397But she's cuteand thighs
>decide to record/archive the game story and other things>46 chaptersmy tism backfires on me again.
>>1477394i've been waiting a long time to finally see taihou unblocked by the ui in her full glory, love the new ui
WATCH OOOOUT
>>1477394Some skins are really made to sit on the left side of the screen like this one where the bench gets chopped off so I ended up having to zoom in and put her like in the old UI, but at least I can still see the cute plushie now even when zoomed in
>>1477434Yeah some skins where the girls are laying down on their side is great. Swimsuit Hornet and Jade fit really well on my screen but Regensberg and Richelieu don't get that luxury.>>1477459>made to sit on the left side of the screen Another apt description. Some of the unique BGs not fitting the whole screen now makes it look a bit awkward.
>>1477238>Lou's skin is really romanticHer part in the cruise story sold it for me
didn't expect my wife to get a whole cutscene for herself. this is perfect
>>1477580I’ve see people complaining about the length, but a lot of botes got screen time. I am pleasantly surprised and hope they continue with it.
>>1477585>I’ve see people complaining about the lengthyeah well, some people are just GAY
>Get the Anchorage swimsuit skin from the bag>"cute butt you little slut but to be a permanent resident on my secretary bench is a position of prestige, just because you have a skimpy bikini doesn't mean you can just-">She starts humping the inflatable I'm sorry Unzen... Your secretary slot is needed... I'm sending you to a nice farm upstate...
Does Emden have any good lines for her skin? I actually am interested in this one because it at least isn't a dress that resembles her base costume so much like the other skins do.
>Royal Fortune outright said I'll have to pay with my body>"kidnapped" all day and nightbotes just won't stop raping me (I like it)>>1477688check algwiki when it's updated, doesn't look like he's added the new botes/skins just yet
>>1477886>>1477688>check algwiki when it's updated, doesn't look like he's added the new botes/skins just yetwikianon was having trouble updating his game among other problems with the new update so it may take a bit.
>>1477887how so? last week was a mess and yesterday had some weird stuff going on with the servers, but things should be fine by now
>>1477889he uses linux from what I've seen and for whatever reason he is being told that his android version is no longer supported even though he is on a supported version.
>>1477890rip, that sucks
I'm starting to hate the way AL rotates skins. I never want to buy skins for botes unless I have AT THE MINIMUM fully limit broken and all skills maxed. So even though the new skins make my pp harder than my iron, it's going to be ages until I can even begin thinking of a frog fleet, and by that point all of their best skins will be unavailable. Anyone else? Or am I just autistic?
>>1478012Sounds like autism to me bro
>>1478012I just got Harbin and I'm buying her new skin.Smoke some bote pussy instead of minmaxxing spreadsheets.
leave it to me lads, I'm gonna kill sex
the deed is done
>>1478072>>1478079what the FUCK
>>1478072>>1478079I can't believe Ehsex is fucking DEAD (again)
Alsace's LoveEX line
>>1478083I knew I'd oath this dork from the moment I saw her expressions, but damn
i wish there was a repository or guide somewhere for all the skin special interactions
>>1478087She is great, her + Soyuz have made this year great for me.
>>1478012autism, nothing in this game requires power or efficency except chapter 15
>>1478083How close are we to being moved to DMM?
>>1478088agreed, some of the skins i bought, didn't know they had interactions. Same with some skins that ignored, had i known their interactions, i would have bought them. Some of the interactions are really obtuse, took me long to figure them out, like kearsarge bunny skin
You tell me
>>1478108>she was about to say let's fuck this really is the long awaited sex update
What gun did you give Alsace?
>>1478156i think the Quadruple 380mm (Mle 1935) is her irl gun, but it sucks ingame, so I gave her the Quadruple 380mm (Mle 1935) until I get a rainbow gun for her.
>>1478156ye olde twin 457mm
>>1478156I think that the good old frog 406mm is enough, but I don't know if her debuff is meant to be released before or after BisZwei fires.
So who gets to be the french backline now? Richielieu + Alsace + ?
>>1478189>MobbingPainleve>BossFlandre / Joffre (place her in the bottom position in the fleet)
I must say, I actually enjoyed the story in this event
>>1478206
>>1478206Despite the copious amounts of lingo the story actually felt like it's going somewhere, I'm still reading it but compared to old stories I'm really enjoying my time so far. Events with the doctors are always nice.
>>1478207I want to know why Helena is like this. Also they named dropped Magician at the end with the other arbiters. So we may get to see her soon.
>>1478209The real problem with the story I think is that it just felt like it was going in circles. This event actually gave us some answers to long standing questions.
>>1478211Yeah, agreed. Yorktown's event gave a ton of answers, even if it's just confirming speculations, and it was very well received from what I saw. They just need to stop dilly dallying, that's all. We're already on our 7th year, other gachas end their first arc in 2 years at the slowest.
>>1478213>confirmed what Laplace's Demon actually is>A pseudo-answer as to why Sirens don't recognize you even though you helped Aoste with them, same for METAs.>You have some weird ability to see conceptual things (what QE META did with Alsace) probably to do with the Cube affinity that is just now being exploredI want to know how Miss D retained her memories. At this point only her, Helena META, and Zero? have theirs.
>>1478218 (me)I also want to know why "Fight Until the Last Light Has Faded" is some sort of cheat code when you say it. It reminds me of Andrew Ryan and "Would you kindly".
Seeing META Wichita and Kimberly's portraits one after another really made me appreciate their design themes
>>1478224probably some of the best META artwork so far imo
>>1478211exactly. things are finally going somewhere, I think it really started with Yorktown's and Clemenceau's events. this event is also shorter compared to recent events, or at least it feels like it>>1478220that, and what the hell is wrong with The Devil. is she brainwashed by ayys or what? and if so, shouldn't The Tower have quarantined her or something in their last encounter?
>>1478250It probably feels shorter because the information given per chapter is more relevant
Finally got my gotewife Suruga from the wishing well. The most fucked up thing about it is I bought one of her outfits three years ago, but she never showed up in like thousands of regular rolls.
>>1478255>Suruga>gotebro...
>>1478255Another one tricked by the tanuki
>>1478255have you played crosswaves? she has a ton of moe moments in it
Cruise story is great. I am glad manjuu decided to just outright show how intimate you are with the botes instead of just alluding to it.
>>1478083Wish they give us option to switch between mask on and off instead of having her stuck in one mode permanently.
>>1478291this event has reached soul levels that shouldn't be possible
>>1477282Gascogne what? Something changes in her skin when you raise it?
>buy lucky bag>get skin for the only shipgirl i don't have (emden)g-great...
>>1478522Good thing that event is reruning soon huh?
>>1478518In Gascogne's case she changes her speech patterns to be less robotic after you raised her affinity to love. For Alsace looks like you have to marry her to take off her mask.
is Mogador actually good (other than tier S for my dick)? there's no way her charging to target is feasible vs bullet hell, like HM Strength or META/Challenge fights, but from her MGM+1 and skills it's like she actually fires a lot>>1478522we're in this together, brother
>>1478537There is no way to tell how good she is until Manjuu fixes her
>>1478538as in, rework her charge? or is she bugged somehow?
>>1478543>charges in >does nothing>dies>rest of vanguard bug out and can't attack
>>1478544well, that fucking stinks eh
>>1478547Yeah, supposedly the math nerds on YouTube mathed it out that you COULD replace Agir with her if you are running Alsace in a BB comp. I don't know how much I believe that until I can try it myself.
it's not just how horny she is, but the voice acting makes her completely unhinged; like she will one day (tomorrow) snap, impale all other yanderes, break into my room and rape me to death only to realize she's a necrophile for menot oath material, but I'm plapping her for sure
>>1478574Azur Lane has reached Fast and Furious levels of needing to one-up itself. Except with lewd instead of cars.
Anyone make a webm of this?https://x.com/azurlane_staff/status/1793193589075304607
>>1478643
>she's already attracted/in love with you in her stranger lineforget power creep, horny creep is where it's at
>>1478652my prude of a old botewife doesn't stand a chance against stuff like the past few batches
>>1478652I'm legitimately waiting for it to be revealed the Commander is some conceptual gigachad or some shit, it's silly at this point.
>>1478661Isn't it the concept of hope? Assuming the Anzeel we spoke too was just Helene META LARPing.
>>1478661ENTER
what if i just bought every skinwhat then
>>1478676I'll thank you for supporting the game.
>>1478649Thank you, I mostly wanted to isolate that St. Louis and Tosa part.Cheshire's outfit is pretty wild
>>1478522that's why i stopped buying lucky bags, i retire 95% of loli ships, the l2d loli skins or the shitty cheap loli skins would constantly drop, it's like the game reads your dock before it rolls
... well now that just makes me even more suspicious
>>1478652If a bote likes being special touched on both lines then yes, she is horny creeping.
>Crush line>*stares robotically*lord knows just how much I love robutts
Why is my repeat sortie keep on stopping after one escort fight? Is it by design?
>>1478729do you get any error message? by any chance, is your dock full? cause it Works On My Machine™ just fine
... what?
>>1478730I'm new...no error whatsoever.
Dishwasher WON
>>1478729might be due to your botes moral being to low, the game does stop fights if it gets low enough since after a certain point they will lose affection due to low moral
How big are those little boats in human size? I want to know if they are tall or small 0w0
>>1478729 (Me)Nvm, restarted the game and now it works as intended. Thanks for for the answers though.
>>1478756she wants you to mount her
>no bullet hell>Evasion enabledthis EX boss was much easier than I expected. also, how the hell do people get 5k+ points in EX? do you get a bonus for using 1:1 fleet comp?
>>1478781heights aren't given out in any canon context
so from what i'm gathering this event is worth reading through? im definitely gonna go through the cruise scenes
>>1478913Yeah its pretty good.
>>1478913I honestly found it to be dumb, then again I always hated the multi dimension time travel aspect so thats probably affecting my opinion
>>1478781Where's the full art for this?
Think I might be getting the kot along with my “domesticated” fox https://x.com/azurlane_staff/status/1793841600722067503
>>1478960I think her garterbelt + dress is still fine looking enough. This semi reverse suit could use some contrasting colors.
>>1478961Depends mainly on the animations, but judging off the last two expressions it should be good
>>1478873The challenge mode, I'd guess.
>>14788733:1 usually with fleet tech set to 0
>>1478924after reading enough of the events i think it's safe to say AL has no time travel, just parallel universes
>>1478960Hips too big
>>1478960https://x.com/azurlane_staff/status/1793972810781806881?t=19Too lewd for twitter
>>1479107>JP discontinued Twitter login>botes slowly getting more and more horny and lewd>to the point Twitter (as in mods, not just any retard) is now crying about itdo they plan on abandoning Twitter altogether or am I just being a schizo? also, does that mean we might be approaching the point where even Play/Apple stores might say it's too much?
>>1479127I'm not sure why Twitter cares much when there is literal porn being posted constantly. >JP discontinued loginBecause of Musk's changes, and I believe the cost associatedI don't think they will abandon twitter, too big of a media to just ditch. >lay/Apple stores might say it's too much?It could happen? Just look at the stuff with DLSite. However they could just take the hoyoverse route and do their own payment processing directly.
>>1479129>I'm not sure why Twitter cares much when there is literal porn being posted constantly.I 'member when tumblr went on their little crusade vs porn and their entire community of unironic pedophiles moved to twitter and made their case pretty clear with all their symbology and shit in their profiles, and nothing happenednow every time I check the comment section on AL official accs I find 2+ OF whores going "nudes on profile" and nothing ever happens to them eitherbut nooo lord forbids we see anime tiddies, though I guess it's more like the kind of NSFW they don't advocate because it's not under their control
>>1479140I think it is more so a automated response, get enough bots to report something and action will be taken reguardless. I can go on twitter now and either see a girls pussy or 2d porn. So I don't really see why this would cause a fuss. Reminds me when the EN account was shadowbanned during the Kashino thing.
>33 wives right nowI'm such a bote whore
>>1479223>I’m such a bote whoreAren’t we all?
>>1479223I haven't married a bote since Gorizia.Where are my blondes?
>>1479254Kersaint?
>>1479254KersaintPainleveGuam
skk = bote property, that's just how it is
>>1479254whereas I'll be marrying 2 more with upcoming oath packI just love botes so much
>>1479269I always find it kinda funny Richelieu is more on the tame side of things but the community portrays her as extremely horny
I have extreme autism so I'm waiting until October 31st to marry my entire 125 Tempesta fleet at once.
>>1479265Guam creeps me out.>>1479259>>1479265Painleve was up there but I wasn't feeling it as hard
>>1479319what's creepy about her?
>>1479343My first impression of her was her face on the thumbnail for her event's PV and I didn't like it one bit.Got some Harley Quinn but gyaru and ugly vibes off of her.
>>1479348>this>creepy/harley quinn vibeswhat?
>>1479355I really hate the pose they decided to give her
>>1479355Don't like the eyes or the pink mark.Made a horrendous first impression on me.
>>1479395why do botes bully each other
>>1479407just a lil banter innit
>>1479391Agreed. It's ugly.
>>1479452The skin was slightly better but I wasn't a fan of the personality either.Good outfit though, on both accounts.
>>1479306You will perish every anniversary
Does anyone have previews of the new 3D dorm update?
>>1479127JP and EN are just shit compared to CN at relaying info about the game.

Gimme your fleets for killing Takao
>>1479715this worked for me. you could replace bani with Vanguard or Alsace
>>1479583here's a hint, all images have 2 filenames
has anyone datamined the Swarm monsters' names? it's impossible to get their names in game, and I'm curious
>>1479842>expecting dataminers to do anything but ruin the fun for anyone else in this day and age>expecting dataminers to not piss off developers to the point where they keep the cool stuff completely out of the game until its readyKill all destiny2fags.
>>1479772Who can I replace Guam with, Hindy?
yayshe looks so soft
>>1473389when are we gonna get Ms. Dick as a playable bote?
>>1479792That did it, thanks.
>>1479874that should work, just throw Plymouth in the front instead as she's beefierI still need to level Hinden or I'd try her instead>>1479877best pink cutie, congrats
>>1479898Is it all AP guns or HE guns for the backline BBs?
>>1479900Takao is medium armor, so you'd want AP.
>>1479901Any aux set-ups for the frontline like a shitton of autoloaders or something?
I wonder why Manjuu is being so weird about buffing Mogador when Agir and Haku were buffed a fuck ton when they were in a way better spot initially. I guess they really want her to be the testing bote for charging based skills.
>>1479912probably because she's the pity UR.
>>1479913this sure did not trouble them while making rafi so strong
>>1479913I really don't think that should matter. She still is a UR and just look at Laffey.
>>1479915can you really compare french botes to the american ones when the french are notorious for losing wars?
ah, so it's that one nigger
>>1479918Amazing that he spends his time on two separate boards itching at the opportunity to shitpost.Anyways I saw some comments on the hotfix post that her damage is more in line with Unzen and Hindy now, but survivability still was lacking on like W15
I love my siren wife
What are good auxes for Mogador?
what is a good fleet for the EX level in the current event? I keep getting her down to x20 bars of hp and then dying because of unkillable siren drones.
>>1479924Part of me wants to say Toolbox/ Fire Extinguisher
>>1479922>but survivability still was lacking on like W15duh, low AA and no damage reduction. why would anyone even bother to test this?what hotfix post, btw? bilibili, I assume?
>>1479929Yeah they put out another hotfix on JP/CNhttps://x.com/azurlane_staff/status/1794251797873483795?t=tXTetYhs80iiinLnapbJWgUnrelated but if anymore of you are interested in figures Apex is showing off their Janushttps://x.com/APEX_TOYS/status/1794310059427860907

>>1479931???
>>1479924I'm thinking>RPG Adventure Interface/Ascension Box/Goldburn/Anti-EM Commands/Toolkit+>Intel Report - Arctic Stronghold/Battle Tracto/Bubble Bullet/Ninjutsu Scrollyou could go RPG+Ascension for both HP and utility, or just use 2 from the second list like a madladI'm not sure if Fire Suppressor stacks with her skill, but anyhow I don't think it's worth it most of the time>>1479930just MTL'd this>(2) Damage taken by the user at one time will never exceed 5% of the upper endurance limit, and if the user takes a cumulative total of 5% of the upper endurance limit while in this state, the enemy projectile will be allowed to pass through the user until the state is released, causing the user to take no more collision damage. No more damage will be taken.I assume "upper endurance limit" means max HP. I guess this works
>>1479935>I assume "upper endurance limit" means max HPIt does

CV's are just as good as BB's, right? Any time I put them in a fleet it feels like my fleet becomes weaker, even with decent gear on them (flapjacks, skypirate, etc. etc.)What am I doing wrong here?
>>1480419>flapjacks, skypirateyou don't use these vs bosses. bomb fighters (unreliable, you'll hardly nail all bombs on target even if they're rooted) and parallel torpedoes are exclusively for mobbing (flapjack is fine if you're fighting w13h or w15 though). use rocket fighters (HVAR vs light, BF-109G vs medium, FW-190 A-6 vs heavy) and converging torps (Ryusei, or Saiun Kai if you must adjust their reload) instead, and Skyraider vs light/med or Tenrai vs heavy on dive bomber slotthat said, it also depends on what botes you're using on your fleet, both main and vanguard
>>1480419Pretty much what the other anon said, I'd argue CVs are usually better than BBs most of the time.
>>1480344>TB>Actual baby raising sim featuring TBNot everyone is a pedophile anon...

I logged out from my account which was binded to twitter, now that there's no more twitter bind I pretty much lost my account right? Since I forgot my UID.
>>1480534Unless you have receipts or anything like that probably. Might as well try emailing support anyways.I don't know how you people are in this position after being told for months to rebind to a yostar account,
>>1480537I never read the message that pops up when you logging, I only learned of it today.Although I knew that happened on nikke june last year.
>>1480540If you remember your name + the purchase receipts it might be enough

time to stick my dick in crazy
>>1480669>the dark alleyway is real
https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Echoes_of_Relinquished_Timethis equipment that +12% her damage...does it work on lolikagi and akagi u too?
>>1480692test it and find out
>>1480680you didn't listen, and now you're getting raped
>>1480669>>1480680I’m convinced Manjuu is reading the AL threads now
>>1480751Playable sirens now.
>>1480751>nownow and then you would find "4chan" listed among the sites you search for AL news/content in surveysspeaking of, last survey was forever ago...
The event's music really nice.
>>1480923I like that there is usually one song per event that I like.This events being Death’s theme:https://youtu.be/0m1ob3QPA6s?si=jtA8viCcp_1F25Da
>>1480923this event made me go and check previous events song, the music in Unzen's event is also really good and i played the whole thing mute.
>>1480751If they are then I certainly hope I could find a way to influence them, such as pushing for mre retrofits or shilling certain overlooked botes more
uh, what? where's the letter?
>>1481023manjuu forgor
>>1480978the only way is to go full autismo and ritual post daily
Colorado Retrofit is really cool and sexy looking.
>>1481124I like the leotard-ish outfit
>>1480978You'd better off influencing people to write the things you want during the next survey, if they ever do it again
I lost once and it stained my profile page, should i reset my account
so who's the new ur dd gun good for
>>1481185anyone who wants a DD gun, but bot the fast firing ones like Shima uses.
>>1481185Z46 in particular wants an AP gun
>>1481185anyone who wants any other DD gun than 1x76mm, save for botes with excellent AoAs or similar on-fire barrages, like Scylla or Attilio, who would probably be better off with the other UR gun
>>1480951For me, it's the last stage. Can't seem to find a video of the bgm, though.
>>1481229Because it's from an older event.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yly4NH6wID8
>>1481231I like that picture of Clem
>>1481231is A1/C1 BGM from an older event as well?

>>1481231>>1481241Thanks, friends.
next maint will have the mailbox rework, for those with a massive amount of mail in storage be warned, the new system could potentially mean you might exceed the storage, in other words it might be a good idea to start considering to claim said mail
>>1481393no don't claim mail, you will be able to hold mail past the cap just not receive new one and the storage will increase with your commander level, and after the update you will be able to deposit old mail in a new storage
>>1481393My mail is filled with merit rewards and I don't feel like claiming them one by one because I'll hit the hard cap if I claim all, I'll just wait until the update and see if they'll make it easier, not like I'll miss them if they somehow end up deleting them
>>1481475>stacking up merit rewards of all thingsyou lazy motherfucker
>>1481475there is like a two week grace period, in the announcement they said nothing would be deleted just you wouldn't get anything new.
>>1481476I'm sorry man I just REALLY don't like going through my mails, last time I drudged through this pile of garbage was when I wanted to mark my valentine mail as important
>>1481480why even bother with memevp?
>>1481488Funny thing is, I don't even do it much. I only do it when I'm really bored, so like twenty battles per season at most just in case I suddenly need gold bulins. I just haven't opened the mails for like a year or two
>>1481480what's the merit cap?i have 1.1m and definitely not hoarding merits on my mail
>>1481533They only mentioned 600k oil and 1.8m coins from what I saw.
>>1481535I think he meant merit cap on shop, not in mail storage
>>1481533I don't think there's a merit cap
I love boats so fucking much.
I hope they keep up this same kind of event from now on. Granted I expect it to be toned down until JP anni. Maybe EN anni if we are lucky. I just want my bote dating sim manjuu
>>1481603Based and same, though I didn't truly appreciate them until I visited the actual USS New Jersey. If you've got a museum ship you can reasonably visit, I highly recommend it.
I LOVE MY SIREN WIFE
>>1481701You better start commissioning some art
>>1481703I'm not a faggot. I make my own.
>>1481603honestly, same>>1481709ultra based and same, drawing and writing shipgirls
>>1481735this bote seriously needs a secretary quest or a secret
>>1481735We need more hebes that are down to animalistic sex
>>1481603samegonna oath New Orleans and Houstsu next
>>1482180Based Soyuz and Harbin enjoyer.
>>1481475I remember reading there will be a way to claim all special rewards (those that aren't oil/gold) at once.
>>1482460There is indeed, I'm glad they're helping lazy fucks with 600 mails like me. They split it into several categories that you can toggle, including oil, gold, cubes, gems, and merit
>>1483275if only I had this many gold bulins to sparemaybe in like 2 years or something
did they say when the 3d dorm thing is coming? its the thing i'm looking forward to the most by far
>>1483443They didn't give a date, only showed off some of Sirius iirc
>>1483443most likely JP anni if it is this year
I'm sure it's just bote banter and they're not shooting each other to death tomorrow
>>1483610Taihou is wrong btw, I absolutely need her service like it's oxygen

>>1483610Please don't fight over me

i'd ask if she's good wife material, but i think the answer's obvious
I didn't notice I was almost exclusively oathing sakura and IB ships until I had them all lined up like this.
>>1484168cute and dorkish gorilla, her Martini line is one of my all-time favorites
Oh man, Tosa is COMPLETELY domesticated like her sister now
Not a lot of points this month.
>>1484215Her valentines lines imply the opposite
>>1484261I'm good
>>1484356Do the Level 2 loggers give more coins/tickets as unused items?
>>1484357nah, I just think they're a waste of AP. meager rewards, can't spawn cat (at least I don't recall cat ever showing up); I'd rather do CL5 maps instead
>>1484373So based
nap club ftw>>1484373my lovely hopeless nymphomaniac
>>1484535Malin getting exasperated is cute
I still find it hilarious how Musashi doesn't look like dishwasher drew her at all when comparing in-game art to the concept art.Someone is quality controlling that face like a slavedriver and I appreciate that individual or group of individuals so much.

bros... i don't know if i can do another month of opsi...is it a lot easier with alas?
>>1484823Do you just not auto it?
Does damage dealt to aeroplanes count towards the damage dealt graph? The numbers on my AA botes is... suspicious.
>>1484879I don't think so, you could test it by pulling off the AA botes MG and throwing her into a few maps with and without it.
>>1484879The damage done to planes scales very hard with the AA delta between ships, regardless of the damage of their equiped guns.
>>1484823why would you need a third-party script to auto something that can be automatized in game?
>>1484879You mean the surface damage at the end of the fights? The one that picks the MVP?Yes.
>>1484823What's so hard about pressing strategic search and then pressing OK? You don't need to do the daily quests if you don't want to
>not a single cat spawn in explorable zones>just 2 cats in 10 hidden zones (4 CL6, 6 CL5)>1 (one) 20 AP box for sale overallAkashi... I thought you were my greatest ally...
>>1485004I wish they would just overhaul opsi were if you clear it once the zones stay discounted
I just need them to change every OpSi daily stuff to weekly
>>1485039only if they make sure the weekly rewards are far far better
>>1485063I don't even need them to be better, just change the daily missions to weekly and keep the exact same total number of missions (or even dump the trash missions that give you blue material boxes) and change the limit of META coordinates from 200 per day to 1400 per week, that way I don't need to do OpSi for 5 to 10 minutes a day every single day and instead do them all in one sitting for an hour on the weekend
