even with 14cm kai guns I'm 1 point short. what am I missing?
Fubuki is cute.
>>50642934The kai ni gun, those are both kai.
If threads autosage after 2 weeks then that just means art needs to get posted more often
>>50643883Oppai?
>>50644103I love bote oppai
Why is Yamakaze so bullyable, I can't stop poking her.
>>50645180yamacute
>>50645180It's a reference to how she historically was ambushed and killed with nobody around to notice.
>>50644103>no warning>that expressionShe knew what would happen and she was fine with it.
>>506463599
>>506463596, best seat anyways and Atlanta's narcolepsy might cause her to fall asleep and lean on me.
>>50645180though it's really hot how she then yells at her sister for pelting her with beans
>>50646359You'd expect Akagi and Kaga sitting next to each other.Anyway, 9. But i'd tell Yahagi she can switch any time and be closer to her senpai.
>>50646913Akagi and Kaga aren't sitting together because they're trying to stop me from fondling Houshou. Who will be sitting next to one of them.
>>50646918As if carrier mama would need them to stop you.
>>50646359I'd send akiduck out on expedition and sit in her place. If that ploy fails, 10.
>>50646359I'd say 5 but I'm afraid this might cause an interrogation with the military police.
>>50646359still in between washi and soda so they might accidentally touch me with their boobs when they lean across my seat to fight with each other

>>50647497>sessyubut where's the penis?
>>50647499When we eliminate the impossible, what is left, however improbable, must be the Ooi.
>>506463592, sleep the flight away next to boring quiet Kaga
>>50647613>He doesn't know the flight is going to be attacked by Abyssal fighters
>>50646981She's not gonna stop me.Her daughters are trying to however.
>>50646359What's wrong with Atlanta, having 2 seats open.Is she going to shoot down this plane?
There aren't enough pics of Akagi eating the beans. How are you going to take responsibility?!
Admirals log, day 10 of setsubun, second daily still gating me hard. Johnston, Kazagumo and Hayashimo remain elusive. Got my Ryuujou though, nice.
Oh praise the Lord. It finally arrived.
>>50648225Real American potatoes.
>>50648225But now it needs an update to include Wasp.
>>50646359kaga is probably the best one to have next to you
>>50648780I want to be in Yuubari's place.
The wiki is confusing, when is it best to do HP/luck/ASW mod, before/after marriage, or before after kai ni/whatever?
>Bacius doujinshi>just crazy shipgirls doing whacky shit>And then there's this oneDid not expect that. Feels a bit out of place between his other stuff.
>>50649741you just want to avoid hp that's a multiple of 12 so don't do it if a remodel will put you there.
>>50650467ok, so I'll have to figure out how the HP will be after remodel and marriage
>>50650912I see we have to give her a basic rundown in Japanese culture.
F A T
I dread every single q that sends you to 5-3, i'd prefer doing 5-5 without YamaMushi than this map.
>>50652368imagine how popular Fubuki would've been
Is it worth leveling my Souya to do the AO comp in 3-2? I'd need to put speed equipment in two of her slots. Node H obliterates my fleet every time...
>>50652633NoThe CL/DD comp is the best
>>50652633Souya will be useful in 5-5, but for 3-2 just hoping for good RNG that skips H is better
>>50652640>>50652644alright thanks, guess it's YASEN time
>>50652655Best pick someone with OP torp
DMM Player daily missions are up and it makes me want to kill the person responsible for this, it's so bad. what were they thinking kind of bad.
>>50652633Yamashio Maru and Fast Suck are best for 3-2.
>>50652680I only have Kitakami Kai for that (besides AV/SS), but she got off-routed as CLT instead of CL. I'm leveling Yuubari but she's a long way from K2.So yeah, level moar I guess.
>>50652714bro why dont you have abukuma she is the best. she is like ofuro daisuki and you are wow what a ugly voice but she grows on you because she always delivers.
>>50652724>It's been 5 years this March since Yahagi made Abukuma completely obsolete
>>50652698Alright, the first is unobtainium and the second from a world well beyond the one I'm struggling with. If I had either of those I wouldn't have asked about Souya...>>50652724Because she drops from the boss at 3-2 which is little help for sinking the boss of 3-2?
>>50652732and >>50652714 have yahagi?
>>50652735you can build her using standard cl recipe.
Yura and Kuma also get opening torps...
>>50652746Oh right, I've tried that many times but she hasn't shown up yet. Besides, she'd be even further from K2 than Yuubari at this point.
>>50652776>140 base yasen power>can't equip normal torpsOnly good as SPF mules.
>>50652732yahagi is a choke artist abukuma never lets me down
>>50652735Sorry, didn't realize how new you were, I had Hayasui way before Souya.>>50652799It's 3-2, 140 yasen and double attack is fine.
>>50652910Yeah I apologize as well for not making that clearer. My Souya dropped in 1-4, so I was pretty happy that I could at least do the beans pvp with her even if everything else is out of reach.
>>50654327Kaga is so pretty...
>>50654584ah stop reminding I still don't have a Zuihou after half a year of playing
>>50654989Don't feel bad, it took me even longer to get a Zuikaku.
fuck I forgot to turn in yesterday's bean pvp
What's a good setup for Chitose A? All planes (but which kinds)? Mini-sub? Double attack?
>>50655877Your best Zuiuns in the first 2 slots (you can craft orange zuiun with ise kai as flagship), minisub in the last.
>>50654327
>>50655924Thanks, I have an orange zuiun and seaplane Swordfish, that's better than regular zuiun right?>you can craft orange zuiun with ise kai as flagshipaah, completely forgot about that, thanks!
wtf is orange zuiun?
>>50656386Shioi's Zuiun.
>>50646359
>>50656601:O someone (presumably Akatsuki) stole my seat next to Atlanta.
>need to clear 2 gages of 7-5 before I can do the weekly
>>50656797You should have waited for the monthly reset before doing it last week.
>>5065660112 if I get to swap seats with Nagato to be next to my wife.
>>50656601No Maruyu next to Kiso?
I want to thoroughly investigate Uranami's machinery intake ports.
>>50656601These are terrible. The joke is that picking one of these options has some big downside, a high chance of things going wrong and whatnot, not just pairing characters that know each other.
Setsubun already ending wtf. I'm only at 22 beans.
>>5065660116Intrepid is going to watch me grope carrier mama.
What were they thinking?https://litter.catbox.moe/g0648c.mp4
>>50657489what, you never heard of flying boats?
>>50657489We just don't know.
>>50657489"Why am I even here? I could be home, doomscrolling toktik..."
>>50657489>Pagoda sister flying through the air like it's a wuxia film
Let's do our best this week as well.
5-3, stop taiha'd one of my girls, you fucking piece of shit map.
To reach the mother, you must defeat her daughters.
>>50659584you mean i gotta sexually pleasure the daughters first?
>>50659584>you must defeat her daughters.>Hey Akagi, that restaurant over there has an all you can eat day today>Hey Kaga, there's a handsome boy at that restaurant flirting with AkagiAnd if Yamato hasn't left together with Akagi, send Yahagi / Iowa / Musashi / Buki to distract her.
>>50659228
>>50660338>b*itish food
>>506463593. Destroyers are the best.>>50649741>>50650467Practically speaking, avoid multiples of 4 in general. Imo it's best to HP mod only after marriage and final remodel level.
Oh right.>>5065660110. Same reason as >>50660485.
7-5-3 boss' armor is so ridiculous but at least i finally got houston
What happened to the poi kcwiki site, it's nothing but a broken image...
>>50660994Weak to anal.
>>50661555Proof?
Comparing Ju 87C Kai and Suisei Model 12, is the +1 Accuracy worth losing 1 bombing? (Disregarding ASW bonus here)
https://en.kancollewiki.net/Tenzan_Model_12A_Kai_(w/_Type_6_Airborne_Radar_Kai)or https://en.kancollewiki.net/Type_1_Land-based_Attack_Aircraft_Model_34From Akagi q? Which one is more annoying to get from upgrades?
>>50661685Go with the model 12, accuracy is for contact, but you'll get it from named squadrons like Tomonaga or Egusa.
>>50660338I love her like you wouldn't believe.
>>50661753Give her her torps, fatman.
>>50661685Difference is probably negligible, maybe check for fit bonuses.>>50661704Both seems equally annoying to make, Tenzan seems to cost more though.Performance wise, I don't think M34 is used a lot with Ginga and Hiryuu being more available.
>First time, eas...I forgot about that sub,
Kidd event soon?
>>50661984Maybe? This was tweeted recently https://xcancel.com/ParksStep3/status/2018776835765731499 which makes it sound like things haven't really progressed yet (so the mystery Zeco girl from the 2024/6 Calendars probably isn't Kidd).
>>50662970It's cute how, despite being a tsundere, Kasumi just straight up says that she made the Valentine's chocolate when she gives it.
>>50663622That's why she gets plapped
Today was a good day. Even got my Johnston, now I can finally do the second weekly. Maybe I'll get the plane after all.
If you haven't done the 30hr expedition, you will soon run outta time.
>>50664706shit I didn't realize it was ending so quickly. will it count if I send the expedition out now and accept the quest before it comes back? I haven't done the 8 pvp wins yet and I already did 5 of my pvps for today.
>>50665101Yeah, it should count if you have it accepted when the expeditions comes back.
>>50664706wait wait wait when is it ending?
>>50665432https://x.com/KanColle_STAFF/status/2020447149566156952Maint on the morning of the 13th to add Valentines quests and CGs.
>>50665498fuark I'll end up with 31 beans... why is it so much shorter this year
new valentine's furniture item just dropped
I only have Fujinami atm, is it worth the resources going down the new quest chain to get the Shinden K2? atm my strongest carrier based fighter is the Iwamoto model 53, and I had trouble with the AS gimmicks last event on hard. So is it worth it, or should I focus on Maxing my Kyofuu SPF's instead?
Do the beans disappear with the maint or can we trade them in later?
>>50667199the next maint is gonna bring valentine with it, so do the math.
Is the blueprint worth picking? It's not currently useful for anything, right? Just in case they add a quest or something that needs it, seems like it'd be a waste of beans.
>>50668540The plane blueprint? You'll probably need at least one to convert Shinden K2 to Jet Shinden K3.
>>50668552Alright, I don't have enough beans for the Shinden so I guess I don't need the blueprint either.
>finally remodel the Fletcher al lthe way to Mk.II>300 dev mats gone
>>50669381Did she at least put out?
>Finish final Setsubun quest>It's not complete>"S-rank each boss node twice"fug
>>50669979if it doesn't show 50%+ then also check your first&second slot
Well at least I got some screws out of this shit
B150 sounds like pain in the ass to do>Assemble a fleet containing Fletcher Mk.II, any 3 USN/RN/RAN/RNN ships, and up to 2 XX, then S rank the boss nodes of 4-5, 5-5, and 6-4 twice each.
I only did the daily quest, the one time quest and the first 2 weekly quest every week and got just the exact amount of beans 34 to get the plane. phew.
Beans completed and turned in, just in time, except for that one time quest I'm skipping since I'm not ranking. 1 hour, 28 minutes, and extra time remain until maintenance.
Surely F138, the max Proto Shiden quest isn't disappearing today.
>>50670741It's not marked as limited, the name has 【工廠任務】instead of 【節分任務】 or 【期間限定任務】, and the prerequisites are tied up with the Hayanami kai ni quest, so it should be safe. I didn't even unlock it yet.
Send out expeditionsThrow those beans
>>50670959>1 bean left I can't spendI can't even feed it to Akagi...
Don't think I can clear 1-5 and 6-2 twice in 8 minutes... Holy fuck does a single run take so much time.
>>50670974Hope for long extra time before they actually shut down the server. You're probably screwed anyway, but might as well try.
https://xcancel.com/KanColle_STAFF/status/2022122734835446020Hiryuu K3 coming today.
>>50670983kek, I send her to expedition.
>1 bean leftoverNow I understand true suffering.

How do you sparkle a low level Souya? Even in 1-1 she can't hit anything and the level 1 fodder steals MVP.
>>50673650Nosaki
:(
>gave her a name tag because she never actually introduced herselfheh
>>50673658if only
>>50673650She can triple-synergy ASW. Take her to 1-5.
>>50673688ooh, I didn't think of that, thanks
>>50649741>>50650467>>50660485is this still valid?this represents the probability of overkill sending the ship to one damaged state or another depending on the hp (not max hp) the ship had before taking damage, right?
no it must be max hp after all
>>50673675>All these cute subs>and then there's *SHE*

I think the first weekly description is wrong, need to S-rank not just A-rank. At least I A-ranked 2-1 and it didn't complete, but did when I repeat the same comp and got S-rank.
>>50673665awwww
How do we get Kancolle to be big in the west? Azure Lane uses Phase Connect, an Idol group, to make it big in the West. Can Kancolle do the same?
>>50674010AL isn't even big in the west anymore.
>>50674010I'm gonna bait, since Nikke and Blue Archive are a thing in the west than Maolame, much more than what they tried to be.
>>50674010>How do we get Kancolle to be big in the west?We don't. Dev's gatekeeping their IP was the best decision they've ever made. Take a look at any of the larger fandoms, do you really want hordes of drooling retards infecting the community with their irrelevant forced culture war bullshittery, attention seeking shitposting, and general dumbassary that comes naturally from said IP being in the forethought of the modern cultural zeitgeist that is todays internet culture? KC's presence in the west is currently large enough that you can actively participate in it without all the downsides other larger communities experience, and ideally it should stay that way.
>>50674010Ask DMM to get rid of the region lock.
>>50674010Can’t we get Lumi to play Kancolle? She’s pretty big and she has a large following. She also has a brother that has the tism for ships and planes so she might know some ships.
>>50674086They did. (Unless you're a bong)
>>50674075This honestly. When kancholles popularity in the west was at its peak you already had plenty of retards calling it racist, imperalistic, white-washing WW2, pro-axis, blahblahblahA lot of things are better off staying obscure or the regular retards will poison the well.
>>50674101or Germany apparently
Samibros this isn't he Valentine's update we hoped for, but our patience will be rewarded.2026 is our year.
>>50671275did they ever add iowa?
is 98 the highest level a remodel has ever needed?
>>50674075>>50674113Peak midwit gigacoping. Surely three (3) muttoids in negroland will save THE Kidd collab. What this franchise needs is fans that can be converted into boatfuckers and visit museums, not fucking gatekeeping. Even if they are retarded at first.
Kancolle needs nothing.
>>50674449too much ass
Forget about the collab, good luck gathering people to visit Kidd once she comes back then.
>>50674145Samidare has been growing on me lately. Genuinly wish you all the best.
>>50674313https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_iq15i3ES0A while back now.
>>50674451could use more CGs more voicelines or better pvp or better interface or better.. anything. I'm a casual mid game player hq 105, the game just isn't addictive. I always come back because I like the franchise and the girls & I want to level my wife but honestly they're either not putting in much effort or they lack budget, they could improve the game in 6 million different ways
>>50674461I already visited Kidd though
How long does it usually take for wikis to fully put up seasonal lines?
>>50674696The dedicated translator quit years ago, so now you're lucky to get them in months, if ever.
>>50674699Not even the raw voice lines and who voiced them? Or even the dialogue in text form?
>>50673926Anti air fit bonus does nothing and from the looks of it only Hiryuu and most armored carriers can equip this so it looks like Shinden kai ni at max stars is better.
>>50674468Thanks. She is the best.
>>50674145I'll eat her cake no matter how many times she drops it on the floor.
>>50674554Agreed, the last events have been mainly frustrating rather than fun, though I don't think making it more addictive would make it better.
>Increased drop rates: Perth???Where does she even drop at all?
>>506752727-5
>>50675075
Happy Valentines day.I hope your wife (Fubuki) gave you some chocolate.
I didn't realize the cache proxy was on v3 now. Do I need to update it from a several years old version?
Funny how Shinden Kai was unobtainable aspirational equipment for a decade then suddenly you could obtain 2 and 3 variants popped up.What other equips are there that people really want that should come back soon? I'm thinking like the Type 2 Land recon or maybe the good Atlanta gun since the 5inch Twin recently became improvable. Maybe API 38 will be obtainable this decade.

>>50678935Night Carriers are never useful. But I've kept mine as one because she looks nicer.
>>50678935both are useful in different roles, I'd wait until you know which role you need in the next event, if any

why does la papa naranja get k3 when hornet doesn't even have mk2 yet and both of her sisters aren't even in the game?
>>50681441Because Hornet is a rather recent ship and Hiryuu had an early Kai 2 that was pretty outclassed by now?
