Well the Siren made their move making this episode look different from the previous ones not that i am complaining tho.
It seems things will develop from here.

The girls going to battle was nice tho some stood out a bit to much especially a certain Battlecruiser that was one shoted by Bismarck in real life history and with that became the only ship to be sunk by Bismarck.
Anyway we need a bit more Warspite as well.
On the other hand we got some of the other girls who didn't get to much attention yet.

That was a big battle.

Looks like Enterprise got some powerup with those golden eyes of hers.

Kaga is down but It looks like Akagi will be back.

I was wishing for a heartwarming reunion but that last part creeped me out. I wish they give some screen time to amagi in future episodes.

This episode was pretty serious.

I was still looking for my waifus and hood was the only new one who got some screen time.

I don't like how this series is just ignoring most of the top tier waifus from the game even if they are supposed to be the main attraction here. Not a single iron blood ship this whole episode. No bismarck, tirpitz, z23, roon yet. Those are some of the most attractive ships in the whole game. At least prinz got some time in the early episodes.

Pretty intense episode, the tension before the war started was lit. Also Enterprise awakened and dealt a heavy blow to both Kaga and Akagi, thou pretty sure they both survived. Also that siren said some interesting things.

God dammit, Enterprise, you don't have to say your phrase in every episode.

Warspite's outfit shows more than it looked in the game, I really thought it covered a little more downwards. Fuck pants, I guess. xD

Indy-chan kawaii... well, close enough.

I don't remember Shoukaku being so cheerful... I love it!

So Helena's panties are indeed black. A few episodes ago they were white for some reason.

It was really cool to see Eldridge's skill in action.

Another Gate of Babylon user xD. Her fire dragon is super cool....

Finally, BEST GIRL AMAGI... Oh Fuck!

A big batle between both factions, it was really cool see a lot of girls there!

Seens Akagi and Kaga are deceiving their faction!

Kaga managed to defeat Enterprise cause she got distracted, but seems the other cube reacten in Enterprise and she got an awesome powerup!

She defeated Akagi and gain her own conscious!

Seems Akagi isn't done yet, because thsi pos ending!

If there's one thing I was happy about with this episode, it was the visual quality. The last two episodes have been pretty lacking in the animation and the same went for the visuals, so it was great to see this action-packed episode getting a major improvement on those things. =)

Enterprise's battle against Kaga started out fine, but it was a little annoying to see her get defeated the way she did because she took her eye off from Kaga and onto Belfast out of concern for her safety while battling against Akagi. While in the sea, Enterprise got a mad power-up from that cube thanks to the Siren itself making their move. Enterprise then rose from the ocean and took down Kaga with one shot before her massive power beam engulfed everyone else.

It was just Enterprise and Akagi left and just like with Kaga, Enterprise took down Akagi with one hit before regaining her senses. I was expecting the post-credits scene with Akagi and Amagi being rather bittersweet, but I wasn't expecting Amagi's face to turn around and show a complete blank face that did startle me. It seems like Akagi isn't down and out just yet....

This episode was definitely a huge improvement compared to the last ones, no doubt about that. I just hope they can keep it up for this last half of the season. Also, am I the only one here who feels like they crammed too much stuff into this episode? This episode also feels disconnected from the last ones as well, there was complete a lack of build up to this huge fight. It feels like they skipped an episode between episode 6 and 7, at least that's how I see it.

But eh, at this point expecting anything from this anime is a fools errand, I just wish they would show more Iron Blood ships, specially Bismarck. I'm dying to see Bismarck and Prinz Eugen interacting with Hood and Prince of Wales, I can't even imagine how that would go down hahahahah.

Zuikaku reacting to Kaga saying "Is that really something carriers do now?" when she's a CARRIER who FIGHTS WITH A SWORD was the highlight of this episode.

Not really sure what is going on here... I feel like i was watching cool stuff and quite a climactic event, but it's like a lot of stuff was skipped over. Not much of it made sense, a lot of it seems to have come from nowhere... Such a dramatic tone shift.

I see yet more Enterprise char development, so there's that.

Great episode, but it kinda seems like they just skipped over to the impending battle. Time constraints?

More Akagi and Kaga is always good. <3

Loved all the fight scenes, especially Akagi/Kaga vs Enterprise. I love how they spend a little bit of time to show almost every ship, nice service for everyone who plays the game.
What's with Enty's awakening? I'm curious to know what's behind it. Does that happen in the game? I'm still at 7-2.

Gate of Babylon was outta nowhere but I guess it's Siren power?

The final scene with Akagi's fire dragon was so awesome, but Awakened Enty is just too OP but it sounds like it's not over yet.

As much as I love Enty, how could she do this to us? :(
I can't watch them die. It's too cruel. Not after offering my soul to farm them.

That post credit scene, I had a feeling that Amagi would have some warped expression.

I was expecting Ironbloods to show up at some point but they never did.
ED with more characters at the end was great.

Excellent episode, I missed AL so much last week and contrary to common comments, I didn't see an issue with the animation in the past few weeks, but this was well worth the wait. I wonder if that's some type of alien or other dimensional power that Enterprise has.

Really sad to see Akagi go :( she's def one of my fave girls. That post credits scene was creepy af ngl. This is def one of the most slept on series of the year. For being literal waifu wars it's amazing. Moe anime girls, tiddies and great fights, what more can you want?

Enterprise's awakening was out of nowhere, but I'll accept since I like her and the show. It's about time someone wiped that smirk on Akagi's face, woohoo! I bet Kaga is alive and will flip a switch after that.

This was a good action episode, well animated and intense. One of the best from the series.

Awesome episode. Been waiting for another intense battle ever since episode 5. Although admittedly I have no idea what just happened with Enterprise. Is Kaga really dead though? Although I'm sad I'd like it to be so because this show, despite a lot of battles, has not lost a single ship (in the present time).

That ending really creeped me out with Amagi's faceless head.

Epic episode. It was really awesome to see those two sides standing against each other. And there was a lot of screen time for a lot of ships. I particularly love the Royal Navy ships.

The tone got far more serious this episode. Actually it felt completely serious.

After a week of waiting for the new episode, things took an offensive course, the alliance between Akagi and the Sirens launched their attack.

The beginning of the episode was the calm before the storm, with the Ship girls waiting for a possible attack, personally the style of the Royal Navy is my favorite, Queen Elizabeth leading alongside Warspite and Prince-chan or Hood drinking the tea accompanied from her maids, Sheffield and Edinburgh.
I really liked how Cleveland and her sisters organized to stay together in combat.

On the enemy side, the fleet of the Sakura Empire is led by Akagi and escorted by two of the best sister duos, Atago and Takao with Shoukaku and Zuikaku.

The main lolis still remain in doubt, Ayanami, Laffey and Javelin do not want to hurt each other, but hopefully the three do not cross on the battlefield.

Another moment Belfast / Enterprise that makes me sigh, I like the friendship that began to form between them, but Belfast still feels that Enterprise can do something that puts life at risk.

Massachusetts made her appearance (I immediately recognized the voice of Rie Takahashi), I would love to see her in action, many of the Eagle Union ship girls are brunettes and I love them.

Akagi set a trap for the Azur Lane fleet and they are transported to a place where they are at the mercy of a fleet of Sirens.

Even at the time of fighting, the Royal Navy ship girls are elegant, Hood is the leader in terms of elegance and she was accompanied by Newcastle, a new maid ship girl, the way Edinburgh is assembled was too adorable .
The Sakura Empire also introduced new ship girls Ise and Hyuuga, both very rough looking.
The battle was quite balanced, both sides were on par with firepower, Enterprise in her air combat with Kaga was great, but for just getting distracted a second Enterprise falls to the bottom and something strange awakens in her, something dark.
Akagi finally fights seriously, that part where we see several portals with artillery attacking Belfast brought back memories of King Gilgamesh.

Anyway, whatever it was that woke up in Enterprise, it has to do with the Sirens and we saw that she attacked Kaga and finally Akagi and we don't know under what conditions both sisters ended up the same with the rest of the fleet of both sides, but the most important thing was that Enterprise admits that she fears the ocean, but I still want to know what woke up inside Enterpries.

That final image with Akagi meeting her beloved Amagi gave me hope to see her, but it was quite the opposite, it gave me a good scare, but it may mean that Akagi still does not sink to the bottom.

I didn't say anime is bad. I just mentioned how I don't like iron blood being ignored. It's a whole faction that is being ignored. I know there are also top tier waifus from IJN, HMS and USS side that didn't get any screen time but I am not complaining about them since most popular ships from those sides are getting their screen time.

That awakened Enty was way too OP.. Overall, It was nice episode for me but I was expecting more detailed and longer fight scenes but it all ended way too fast..(it seems they really are rushing to end this anime fast as possible like within 12 episodes..)

And that aftercredit scenes.. Guess working with Sirens wasnt good decision...(hopefully they arent reviving either Akagi, Kaga or maybe Amagi in Siren-like forms..)

Well.. still too early to say Enty will become Alter Enty in anime’s timeline since it kind of hinted she already become Alter Enty in different parallel timeline and it looked like Enty got that power temporary by resonating with her other self due to the influence of the black cube.. (but..who knows..)

The quality of the episode improved compared to previous episode, I hope that they will keep it. I prefer if they air every two weeks instead one week so the quality won't drop too much.

Yes. Maybe in later episode they will add someone as powerful as Enty to stop her, given the hint about Alterprise, she will probably face her against herself in future episode.

Review summary in a gif:



Image review and context above. This is a fucking nightmare. Just when I thought Bibury couldn't do worse, they do this. They went fucking plaid on the art-quality to story inverse ratio, because I have no words to sufficiently describe just how bad this episode is.

There is no comparison between this and Kancolle the anime. None. Kancolle is not just better, it's light-years ahead of whatever trash Bibury thought would be acceptable to Azur Lane fans.

Kancolle at least tried; this episode has rotoscoped ship images that look like they were cut and pasted from a naval encyclopedia. Most of them aren't even sailing in the right direction. There are multiple models that are either off model, randomly chibi, or completely missing some features.

The battles are so poorly choreographed that they're barely better than static images.

The worst part, however, is Enterprise, who in the span of a single episode goes from actually getting something resembling a plot to literally becoming Sea Jesus, effortlessly wiping the floor with the IJN fleet as she gets resurrected in a boom-tube of light by the power of the Sirens.


That stinger though, for Akagi, was a very nice touch. Amagi wasn't completed, so it'd be natural that she'd have no soul. Well, now it's time for Akagi to reap the consequences of her faustian bargain with Observer and the Sirens.

Absolutely loved it!

Animation seemed to get a bit worse at some points but that's easily forgiven, happy too see more of Hood & Eldridge, especially the latter. Can't get enough of Laffey either.
The battle itself was pretty entertaining and intense as well, feels like this EP didn't lack anything for such an actiondriven one.
Actually it was a bit surprising to see Enterprise sink so quickly, however she bounced back stronger so.. yeah, can't really complain about anything.
Fanservice was kinda lacking but that was to be expected in a battle ep I guess... unless their clothes would tear after being hit, which I wouldn't mind honestly. :^)

Just.............no. Whatever you're smoking, I want some, because this was by far the worst episode yet.


Enterprise being Sea-Jesus was supposed to be just a metaphor, but apparently Bibury, having no sense of irony or restraint, actually went and did it. It takes all of three minutes for enterprise to die, go to ship girl inverse heaven/hell or whatever she sees, and then be resurrected in a boom-tube of light by the power of her inner siren.

I see yet more Enterprise char development, so there's that.

Rip Akagi.


I thought Enterprise being Sea-Jesus was a metaphor. Then that happened. For once, you seem to understand where I'm coming from, which is a nice turn of events.

Oh, and if you haven't seen it, watch the stinger at the end of the credits. Akagi is reaping the consequences of her Faustian bargain. In spades.

Now she's a sea-jesus-alter.

I like the term "Sirenterprise" better.

Regardless, Enterrpise has been transformed into the classic mary-sue, complete with the emotional breakdown because she's "too strong" and "just wants everyone to live."

I don't know what Bibury was trying to do, but the narrative has essentially imploded because of whatever they're trying to do with Enterprise. Flashbacks and the narrative incorporation of her history as a ship are now necessary for the story to have any semblance of continuation in my opinion.
