Battleship Nagato

Although some artists depict it in other ways, here she is seen stalking on the destroyers more or less :-) https://youtu.be/bmxNQugzmII?si=fgfZ-ddV0NTIhQA2

Oh yeah...I completely forgot about her affection towards destroyer girls...although I always saw it more as parental affection than romantic crush, but yeah, I forgot that, thank for reminding me.

I thought Nagato was more associated with her crush on destroyer girls? (Especially the 6th squadron)

For the last five years I have watched quite a bit of seasonal anime shows. Including lots of isekai shows, so I have seen lots of that crazy stuff that does not really make sense. But you just got to roll with it as you laugh type of a thing

Didrik Svahn

I haven't watched too many and I tend to avoid the more "out there" concepts (with "Darling in the Franxx" being the exception) and saw Kancolle back in 2019, had a major crush on Nagato wich lasted for a long time and that caused me to craft this headcannon as calling the characters "warships getting hit with the japanizing beam and thus turning into anime girls" concept was on the weirder side.

Fábián Hunor

Fair enough, I have just watched so much anime. That I have started to accept anime logic when it comes to certain stuff lol

Didrik Svahn

Maybe, the main objective for my headcannon was fitting the Kancolle anime into our world as best I can. Essentially the shipgirls were volunteers into a Navy project called the "Kantai Program"; the would be one man warships with the objective to scare as much pirates on the south east asian sea as possible using their one man unit concept as an advantage against said pirates. Floatation would be provided by special boots fitted with jet-ski style water jets, however the limits of the technology didn't allow males to use them as they were too heavy and women were light enough to carry enough equipment without overwhelming the boots. All the girls got callsigns corresponding to ww2 era warships; some "classes" wee actually made up of sailors who were actual relatives (Nagato and Mutsu and the "Kongou sisters" were such cases). The program seemed promising at first, however issues in heavy seas and a lack of redundancy in floatation devices and safety equipment got the project cancelled after just a year or so of active combat, with the sailors going their own separate ways (Nagato for example, the daughter of a high ranking admiral, would wind up as the general secretary of a large naval base and would be a major help in streamlining operations, earning herself a rank of captain). Granted its not the best of headcannons, with the biggest plothole being the uniforms, and their weird and colorful designs, but it makes a tad bit more sense, than a sudden invasion of nautical alien species, that calls for such warfare to be called upon.

Maybe that headcanon is true who knows? Especially when it comes to anime lol

Didrik Svahn

Oh my ! I love the suit, so good for diving :3 I would love to go alone in that dark and dangerous unknown cave with a possibility to be stuck >:3c

To be honest that was a bit much for me, I found Kongou's obsessive love for the admiral hilarious, but the NagatoxMutsu incest hints were too much, however I used that to craft a headcannon static that Mutsu teases her sister with the purpose to open up and let more room for her feelings.

Fábián Hunor

Ok I don’t remember that part of the anime. But I liked how it played into the silliness of the premise. Which is why I dropped season 2 as that did not feel like the same show anymore

Didrik Svahn

Mostly, she sounds similarly stoick in the game and the anime as well, but her softer, "nagamon" expressions are softer and her voice is deeper in the "in game" rendition. I also thankfully hadn't found any hints at the incestious romance between her and sister (Mutsu) in the voice lines, that was the biggest thing I disliked about the anime.

Fábián Hunor

Oh and did it match?

Didrik Svahn

I'm in the same boat as you, only watched S1 and hadn't played the game, but decided to check her in game voice lines on the wiki, to see if it matches to her anime version.

Fábián Hunor

I have just watched the first season of the anime and not played any of the games. So I could not really tell that but I hope so for her sake

Didrik Svahn

i would not go alone in there - maybe take some support with me

Midnightfox51

Judging by her portrayal in the anime and her voice lines in the game the show on...I woukd guess she wouldn't panic easily.

Fábián Hunor

Yeah perhaps just need to make sure that she does not start to panic then. As that will lead to her breathing faster

Didrik Svahn

Maybe she can manage her air intake better so the tank lasts longer...

Fábián Hunor

Oh yes one tank is usually not enough to explore a cave. For the reasons you just mentioned

Didrik Svahn

Just watch out for your air supply, you need enough for safe ascent and time flies fast if you get lost in a cave...
