Dude im starting to like akagi less and less now. I dont care wut she went through, time and time again she has created catasrophes for her fellow shipgirls to clean up
Took me a year or two of playing to figure out that we play as two different commanders; one is the "slow ahead" timeline where azur lane is doing great and the sirens are mostly inactive, only tossing in crossover girls with experimental rigging to test out. Usually with a friendly iteration of Purifier to directly observe and help out the ship girls. The other one is the serious one where the commander doesn't personally know every ship girl, cities get blown up, and ship girls get killed.
It’s funny to me as an old veteran of AL that the lore part of this vid is mostly wat AL wainwright’s the beginning and kinda just is in the main story. The game started out pg12 and had that lv of fanservice, so to say very little. But within the year of global launch, the devs had employees sneaking into the world chat to c wat the playerbase was like ingame. Even chatting w us from time to time. They realized that the playerbase they had gathered was more horny for the shipfus then interested in the lore and gameplay. It was like 60% was there for the waifus. And it was around 1-2 years into global that the new designs, both base and skin, changed and they got the age rating changed to 16+ to get away w more of wat they found the players wanted. And to all’s great happiness, the manjuu CEO was in the same boat. Designs used to be 90% lore, 10 appeal. Nowadays it’s more 30% lore, 70% appeal for base skins, and 5% lore, 95% appeal for other skins.
I remember I was in the HI3 server and someone in the lore channel kept talking about how they hated Azur lane for being more successful and “full of fan service with no story”. Then I told them it did have a story and they called me a coomer.
From what I understand the Port section is set far after the Lore events of the story. Though that does get semi complicated with some interactions with TB, however those should still be in the past. This has to be the case based on the Port dialogues, especially in the Secretary short stories, as while the characters remain vigilant they don't seem to be overly concerned about the Sirens or any roaming METAs. I mean for Christ sake they get blitz drunk at parties and go on road trips down the very long Route 66, among other things. Things that Operation: Siren insinuates they didn't have time for when the Sirens were active threats.
@@marcorocchi6758 You mean like Yorktown and Hammann? Or Hornet and Northampton? All of whom were assumed KiA but were later revealed to have just been in critical conditions which were stabilized by the Type-II Riggings. Or Akagi and Kaga who were also assumed KiA only to be found alive later? Or Zuikaku and Shōkaku who seem to never die at any point in the story despite both eventually sinking in combat IRL? A trait shared with Bismarck who is saved by U-556 despite IRL no such thing happening, and the Blueprint KAN-SEN who are outright stated to be created from blueprint designs or incomplete hulls that were never finished? Meaning the can live or die at any arbitrary point of whim because they have no Historical completion nor destruction point.
@@Heartrose7 Yeah, but Kaga woudn't have sacrificed herself to bring back Amagi in the Crimson prelude (the latest event). Also ironic how it's literally the anime plot (even though it was like 5 years before)
@@marcorocchi6758 I know right? Setting the anime aside though, it needn't be Kaga who does it. Any sacrifice would work in theory. And we still are missing many ships from the IJN register. Specifically it is noteworthy that Yamato was skipped for inclusion for Musashi, her younger sister ship Alternatively, since we know thanks to the Type-II Riggings that successfully attaching a secondary Cube to a damaged original Cube can fix critical condition KAN-SEN, then theoretically speaking a sacrifice may not even be needed, even without specifically a Type-II Rigging so long as you can get a second Cube to take to the original damaged one, it should hold that the same effect would occur. And I'd find it likely that they would attempt this likely as one of Akagi's goals was to revive/restore Amagi, seeing the commander successfully introduced Type-II Riggings and save the previously doomed KAN-SEN he has, do you really think she wouldn't beg him to try? Even if it was the slimmest of odds? Even if somehow he refuses to try himself, the Sakura Empire can use magic and Akagi is stubborn, I can see her taking Cubes and trying repeatedly with and without magic until either none of them work, or one finally does. I think the second scenario is the correct one though, as Amagi would mention the former and the latter, and Amagi seems rather pointedly grateful to the Commander specifically. Not necessarily Akagi or an unknown third-party.
This is why I love Azur Lane. The happy port days are nice nd remind you what the characters are fighting for. But ultimately it is war and tragedy strikes many, and I live the contrast, that and the lore/storytelling is one of my favorites favorites
Reminds me of rimworld. Was all peace, good times. Then suddenly the next day someone turned into a leather hat, the girls next door turn to insect jelly. And the happy go lucky guy have his limbs replaced with different people arms and leg that you knew.
My 100% collection rate, 140+ lvl acc looking at the lore for the first time after i skipped it, only focused on oathing every yandere ship there is. : the fuck is this ???
KAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'm shaking and crying right now. My wife. My one and only beloved Kaga. I can't take this, man. I don't care about Azur Lane's lore, I care more for real WWII history, and my own narrative, but god damn it, this one hurt like a freight train, it's like a terrible nightmare. One that I wake up from, but everyone keeps reminding me about it, and I can hug Kaga as much as I like, but I'm reminded of the nightmare all the time. And I want to let it out. I have pent up anger, grief, and sadness I need to let out. We killed Akagi a long time ago, back in Midway, there is nowhere to take all that, and just let it out. All of it. I feel like the only thing I can do is accept it, and keep my Kaga safe and happy. It shall be a reminder. Reminding me to always be there for the one I love the most.
Welcome to the club. Where the one waifu you truly fall in love with ends up being screwed over, or they screw your chances with her over in lore for no real reason and you can't do amything about it.
Hello. My 9A-91 still didn't got confirmation about dead or alive (probably KIA offscreen). I still love Akagi, cuz she's 9A in different universe. Yeah, Im kinda fucked
its like hard to make anime from it, i think most gatcha have like that too but then some ppl we need ''insert title'' anime ... didnt you play game ? who the hell want another doom and gloom anime ?
the lore being a hit or miss one may say only a teenager would consider it to be worth of being part of the megalith remix meme. 🤡 At least AL can keep being good on the sexiness
It always has, people however have a short attention span causing them to skip stories. Azur Lane: Crosswave also has story and people gave it negative reviews because of it.
It has a story and imo it's an amazing story - while i started the game for the warships and stayed for the interactions with the girls, i return every time for the story.

Honestly I have played this game for 6years have 100% collection and no idea what it's about. Cute girls do cute thing I guess but what does the Manjuu Tower minigame actually symbolize
Forget about Chapter 1 to 15, event story is very peak for me. I mean, I love how Manjuu did a good work to make a storyline. Checkmate for community who really like a some relationship Kaga with Akagi, Enterprise with Belfast, etc like yuri (lesbian) NTR moments than other shipgirls with Commander( sorry, now I'm not yuri fan right now). RIP Amagi, now this commander would protect Akagi what matter how. Kaga really became to tree and I can said, Gomen and Sayonara Kaga, right now she(Kaga) was officially dead (maybe). Akagi win his heart.(Spoiler)Port Life could happen when all ahipgirls done her duty and fight against to Siren. Commander has already done as a commander and enjoy with shipgirl.

Among all the shipgirls theme games I play so far (like KC, Warship girls, victory belles, abyss night) imo Al lore suck ass (coming from me from day 1 player). Don't get me wrong the shipgirls design is good but The Lore is to confusing and overcomplicate for its own good, are they like trying to be like Fate or something? Also some of the Cn dialogue or text are wrongly translated to JP/EN make it even more confusing. 😅
It is not as bad as you say, despite there being certain complicated aspects and translation errors, the story itself can be followed well. I've been reading it for a few years now but I've never found it to be very difficult to follow, apart from the explanation of some new concept or something like that. At least that's my opinion
@@saviletotorres143 I kinda of get some of the stories from the beginning like - Alien Rock coming from the sky - Human manages to improve their tech thx to that - we got these two scientist. the woman scientists create shipgirls - the dude scientist suddenly become schizo yapping about alien threats so he created siren. he's planning to evolve humanity by using them to fight back against alien like running through simulations over and over again with different timelines and stuff. this also didn't include multiverse(blud think we're some sort of Pokemon that can evolve) - Others also created black cubes and corrupted bon home after this, the lore becomes too overcomplicated and all over the place to follow. The dev throws some wall of info of text and dialogue and expects players to understand any of it. This also didn't include other media like anime, manga, and LN (if this had one), and some of the text and dialogue from CN to ENG/JP can be wrongly translated Also when we take a look at the Alien or X-Threats biology description, we need to fight against Galvanic Mechamorphs (upgrade species from ben10)

Also, AL lore is such a cluster fuck and sometimes they are contradicting with in-game data. for example in the 6th anniversary MV video in the last few minutes scene Enterprise holding some photo frame, in that photo, there's little Enty, little Yorktown, and little hornet. but in-game data/ document wrote that the ship girls are born literally in adult form and the little version of them has just been discover or made accidentally by Akashi and her laser.
