I love tsunbotes.
Small boats are cute
>>291973620Cute pits.
>>291992095What do you mean? It's still chugging along with no signs of stopping, we've got an OVA next year.
>>291992095It's still popularish in Japan, it's everywhere else where the people don't care anymore. And the devs seem fine with catering to a relatively small group of autistic Japanese. Also, it its credit, it has way better designs than any of its 'competitors' and is actually a better game.
>>291996963Still comical how they've sat on this untapped goldmine for years, without doing much with it, and just watching it slowly melt away.
>>291997045It's only comical to you as a foreigner who is not part of their target audience. And honestly, it is so much better this way.You want a look at what Kantai Collection could have been if you had your way? Look at Uma Musume and carefully observe their foreign fanbase compared to their domestic fans. That is the kind of attention you are advocating for the series to have.
>>291997192A lot of people don't understand how Japan sees itself as a whole, they're content with it being 'just Japan' - the outside world is separate, maybe not entirely shut off but if something is Japanese only that's just fine in a way that people in the West and particularly Eng countries struggle to understand.

>>291992095>areAnon, not a single ship girl game survived outside of Azur Lane, and that is now yesterdays news. The only non-gacha game franchise left is Arpeggio, and that shit the bed with how long and boring the Kongou fight was.
>>292014504Delicious
>>292011543Very spooky.
>>292014707>shipgirl gamesYou're missing the forest for the botes, anon... KanColle proved you could take a bunch of WWII warships (of all things), turn them into cute girls with recognizable designs and personalities, and get millions of people attached to them. Shimakaze alone was fucking everywhere in fanart, doujins, cosplay, figures etc. It wasn't just Battleship with cute girls. People were playing and obsessing over their favorite girls, drawing porn of them, buying merch and keeping an entire fandom alive around them.Touken Ranbu did it with swords, Girls' Frontline with guns, Uma Musume with racehorses, and Azur Lane wholesale stole the shipgirl concept. These franchises capitalized on the same character-collecting obsession KanColle had helped popularize back in 2013 and built vastly more successful modern games around it while KanColle itself remained fossilized in its decade-old browser game. KanColle's initial success practically became the blueprint for what modern gacha publishers dream of achieving: a game whose characters become so popular that the fans themselves turn it into a cultural phenomenon. The endless collabs, VTuber sponsorships, promotional events and marketing campaigns you see today are all attempts to cultivate that same kind of obsessive fandom and organic publicity. KanColle had all of that practically fall into its lap back in 2013 and somehow managed to squander its enormous head start. Even if the producers are fine with it being known only to a small group of Japanese autists, it's just sad to me.

>>291973620Can you kiss a bote?
>>292021157As if you ever had a choice in the matter. You're getting kissed and you better love it!
>>292021906Deal!
Which bote is most likely to make you lose NNN?
>>292026796Grecale for sure
>>291973620So what's the future of this franchise? Is it seriously gonna be stuck in a fucking cheap-ass browser Japan-only game until hell freezes over? Why can't they make a proper game already? Like maybe a turn-based RPG or a tactics RPG or some shit like that.
>>292027314The devs refuse to do anything further with it, unfortunately. I really wish it got the full Arknights or even Cygames treatment but alas
>>292027531Even if they're gonna keep it as a browser game, can't they at least improve the game with proper character animations and just improve everything overall to look more premium? You know, like Kancolle Arcade? Why not just import those animations (which belong to Kadokawa) and move them to the browser game?
>>292027314Devs are working on a proper game, but it's a brand new IP.
>>292029176Fuck...
>>292029415Note: This game has been in development hell for so long, the initial teaser image said it supported Windows XP.
>>292029463Man that's just sad. The Kancolle IP should be sold to someone who's not stuck in the 90s at least.
She's waiting.
>>292031990For her Due?
>>292032195So it seems...
>>292032392>>292033624All the small girls from this show are so erotic
>>292034272They are indeed
>>291992095>>292027314KanColle has to be one of the most mis-managed franchises of all time. Even the excuses about it being the result of a Japan-only focus fall flat when faced with reality. It's sad not only how much opportunity went to waste, but also how many great characters have been squandered. I don't understand how anyone can enjoy KanColle and say where we ended up today is the best outcome.
