１話

ここが鎮守府・・・
So this is the naval base...

艦隊育成学校「鎮守府」
Fleet Training School "Chinjufu"
ここは新造の艦娘たちが進水式を迎えるまでの１年間艦娘としての様々な知識を学ぶための学校である
This is a school where newly-made ship girls spend a year learning what they need to know before they are ready to set out to the seas.

まだまだ若輩者ですが立派な艦娘になれるよう頑張りますので
I'm still a novice, but I'll do my best to be a fine ship girl, so
一年間よろしくお願いします！
I'll do my best during this year!

最初の一歩
First Step

それでは最初の第一・・・
Now, let's take the first st-

ぽ
-ep

祝砲は実弾を撃つものじゃないっ
You're not supposed to use live ammunition during the salute!
えー空砲じゃつまらないじゃない
Eh...but using blanks is boring.
つまる つまらないの問題じゃ・・・
T-that's not the problem here...

私・・・最初の一歩から不安でいっぱいです
F...from the very first step, I'm getting pretty insecure...

迷子
Lost

えーと　集合場所はたしかこっちの・・・
Um...the meeting area should be around...
あ・・・あのっ　新入生の方ですか？
Ah...excuse me! Are you a new student?

え？そうですけど・・・？
Hmm? That's right...
あのっ　私も新入生なんですが道に迷ってしまって
Um, I'm also new, and I've gotten lost...

それじゃ集合場所まで一緒に行きましょう
Then let's go to the rendezvous point together.
本当ですか！？　ありがとうございま・・・
Really!? Thank you very mu-

出会い
Encounter

だっ大丈夫ですか？
A-are you alright?
は・・・はい・・・
Y...yes...

あっ　あなたも特型駆逐艦なんですね
Ah! You're a special type destroyer too, huh.

はい！吹雪型二番艦白雪と言います
That's right! I'm the second ship in the Fubuki class of destroyers, Shirayuki.
私も同じ吹雪型一番艦の吹雪です
I'm Fubuki from the same class.

同じ型・・・！
The same class...!
すごい偶然ですね
That's quite a coincidence.
もしかしてこれは・・・
Could this be...

運命の出会い・・・
A meeting of fate...?
えっ？
Huh?

気配
Presence

とりあえずお友達から始めることにした
They decided to just start as friends for now.
次のカドを向かって・・・
Head towards the next gate...

・・・吹雪ちゃん
...Fubuki-chan.
白雪ちゃんも気づいた？
You noticed it, too?
はい　さっきからずっと・・・
Yes, for a while...

誰かついてきてる・・・！
Someone has been following us...!

ーーー

思い切って
Boldly

あのっ
Excuse us!

私たちに何かご用でしょうか・・・っ
Do you have any business with us...?

いえ・・・私と同じ型の子たちだなと思って・・・
No...I was thinking that you were from the same class as me...
私は特型駆逐艦３番艦・・・初雪
I'm the third special class destroyer...Hatsuyuki.
あと・・・
And...
あと？
And?

道に迷って・・・
And I'm lost...
ついて行けばなんとかなるかと・・・
I though it would work out if I followed you...
迷子多いなぁ
There are a lot of lost girls...

事故
Accident

一緒に行くことに
They're going together
おーい！どいたどたー！
Hey! Move it!

えっ・・・
Hu...

ごめんよー！
Sorry about that!
大丈夫？
Are you alright?
ん・・・大丈・・・
Mm...I'm alri-

一番
Number One

よーし　深雪さま一番乗・・・
All right! Miyuki-sama's going to take fir...

うわっ！
Woah!

おしりおった・・・
Landed on my butt...
いった・・・　なんだよー
Ow...what was that?
わははー
Wahaha!

島風がいちばーん！
Shimakaze's number one!
あっ　ずるいぞ！
Ah, that's not fair!

私が一番
I'm number one

人を押しのけるなんてずるいぞ！
Knocking people over is unfair!
私の進路上にいるほうが悪いんですー！
It's your fault for being on my route!

島風が一番だもん
I'm number one, after all.
そんなの認められない！私が一番だ！
I won't accept that! I'm number one!
一番かどうかで揉めてるみたいだね・・・
Looks like they're arguing about who is number one...

あの・・・
Excuse me...

私が一番ですけど・・・
I'm actually number one...
えっ！？
Wha-!?

ーーーー

一番
Number One

ど・・・どうして一番なんだ？
W-why are you number one?
おかしいだろー
That doesn't make any sense!
そーだ　そーだ
That's right!

えっ？　わたしが一番艦ですよね？
Really? Aren't I the first in the class?

そ・・・そうだね・・・同じ吹雪型だもんね・・・
Oh...I see...you're in the same Fubuki class...
はいっ！
That's right!

超弩級戦艦
Super Dreadnaught Battleship

おー新入生　揃ってるねー
Hey, newcomers! I see you're all assembled together.
先輩！
Senpai!

そんなに緊張しなくてもいいよー　今日は簡単な説明だけだから
You don't have to worry that much, we're only going to give simple explanations today.
あの人たちって超弩級戦艦なんどよな？
Those girls are super dreadnaught battleships, right?
初めて見た
It's the first time I've seen them.

主砲の数すごいなー
Look at all their armaments...

そこのふたりっ！
You two, over there!
すっ　すみません！
S-sorry!

私の主砲興味ある？詳しく説明しようか？
Are you interested in my main armaments? Shall I explain in detail?
やめい
Stop.

ーーー

説明
Explanation

やはり伊勢ではダメだ
I guess I can't trust you after all, Ise.

赤城、加賀　後はお任せた
Akagi, Kaga, please handle the rest.
はぁ・・・
Right...

では伊勢たちの代わりに私たちが説明します
Well then, in lieu of Ise's group, we will explain.
よく聞いてくださいね～
Please listen carefully~

ここはあなたたち新造艦が進水するまでの１年間艦娘としての様々な知識を学ぶ場所です
This is where you newly-made ships will live and study various information for a year before launching.

授業は主に教官が行いますが練習等の実践的な学習は様々上級生が行います
Lessons will primarily be handled by instructors, but practical practice lessons may be done by various upperclassmen.

先輩たちと実践・・・
Practicing with the upperclassmen...
大丈夫かなー
I wonder if we'll be okay...

実戦的といってもあくまで練習だから大丈夫よ
Even though it's called combat, it's still practice, so it'll be alright.
港に戻っている艦は整備中とか修理している艦が多いから
There are a lot of damaged ships that get repaired at the harbor, after all...

むしろお手柔らかに・・・
So rather, please take it easy...

たとえばこんなふうに負傷してたりするから・・・
Like if you get wounded like this...
大丈夫か赤城！？
Are you alright, Akagi!?

ーーー

油断大敵
Unpreparedness is One's Greatest Enemy

そッ　それと　いくえら練習で実弾ではないからとはいえ戦闘には変わりないので
A-and although we won't be using live ammunition in lessons, it's not much different.
油断して気を抜くと怪我をすることもあるのできをつけてください
If you're negligent and lose focus, you could get hurt, so be careful.

油断・・・
Negligent...

そう・・・私のように・・・
Right...like me...

ああ・・・私が・・・　あの５分間を・・・
Ah...I...in those five minutes... [Reference to how the Akagi sank]
赤城！赤城－－っ！
Akagi! Akagiiii!

締め
To Sum it Up

説明終わったー？
Is the explanation over?
説明は終わったけど赤城のトラウマスイッチが入ってしまって
It is, but Akagi's trauma switch was flipped.

えっ？　大丈夫なの？　（口から血が出たりしてるけど）
Huh? Is she alright? (Blood is coming out of her mouth)
まぁなんとか・・・
Yes, somehow...

私があああああ
I waaaaaaaaas

よ・・・よーし　じゃあ早速演習として赤城を捕まえよう！
A...alright, then let's start with a lesson to catch Akagi!
砲術家(?)になるかもしれないけど
You might get gunned down, though.

無理ですよ！
That's impossible!

ーーーー

02話

今日はちょっとみなさんにコロシアイをやってもらいまーす
Today, we're going to have you all do some killing each other!

今のなし！嘘！
Disregard that! That was a lie!
演習！演習をやります！
Exercises! We're doing exercises!

そのネタは若い子にはわからないし洒落になってないわよ・・・
Young ones don't understand that joke, they won't realize the pun...
うぅ・・・ナウなヤングにバカウケだと思ったのに・・・
Uu...I thought it would be a hit for those young and in the now...

ーーーー

赤城のあれから
Afterwards with Akagi

そういえば赤城先輩はあれからどうされたんですか？
By the way, what happened to Akagi-senpai after that?
あー結局　加賀と私たちで追いかけたんだけど・・・
Ah...eventually Kaga and everyone caught up with her...

なかなか決着がつかなくて・・・
But it didn't really reach a conclusion...
もはや戦闘！？
Fighting already!?

最終的にキレた加賀が・・・
Finally, it was an angry Kaga...
（いいかげんにしろッ！！）
(That's enough!)
甲板ってこういう使い方ないでしょね！？
Decks can't be used that way, right!?

まぁ　おかげで無事に赤城は大は・・・捕まえられたから
Well, because of that, Akagi was easily heavily dama...caught.
（よかったよかった）
(It's all good)
今　大破って！大破って言いかけた！
You were just about to say "serious damage"!

説明
Explanation

最初に艦対戦の流れから説明するわね
Let's explain the flow of sea battles from the start.
まずは偵察機による索敵続いては航空戦
First, spy planes search for the enemy, followed by the aerial battle.
この辺は艦載機がある場合のみね
This is only if there are ship-borne planes present.
で　砲撃戦　最後は敵に肉薄して雷撃戦を敢行よ
And then the shelling battle. Finally, we close in on the enemy and end it with torpedo attacks.

それでも決着がつかない場合は夜戦・・・って川内？！
And if it's still not over, there's night warfare...Sendai?!
夜戦！？
Night warfare!?

艦隊戦の説明してるだけだから　（下れ下れ？）
I'm just explaining the flow of battle. (Stand down)

なーんだ　夜戦訓練する時は呼んでくださいねーあ
Aww...call me when it's time to practice night warfare, the- ah.

日中は寝てて無理なんで絶対呼ばないでください
I'll be sleeping during that day, so don't call me then.
呼ばんわ！
We won't!

ーーーー

得意分野
Field of Expertise

川内みたいにそれぞれ得意だったり好きな分野があるから
There are those like Sendai that have various fortes and favorable fields,
先輩を参考に自分の得意分野を見つけような！
So use us upperclassmen as references and discover your own fields of expertise!
はーーーい
Ye-s!

あぁ・・・魚雷って固くて冷たくて・・・
Ah...torpedos are so hard and cold...
素敵・・・
So wonderful...
大井
Ooi

わーははは
Wahahaha!
飛べー　飛ぶのだー
Fly! Fly, my pretties!
飛揚　隼鷹
Hiyou Junyou

ああいうところは参考にしすぎないようにね・・・
Don't use that too much as a reference...
はーーーーい・・・
Oka-y...

敵
Enemy

あの・・・私たちが戦う敵って一体何者なんですか？
Excuse me, what exactly are the enemies that we're fighting?
いい質問だねー
Good question.

敵は過去に沈んでいった艦の怨念が実態したものって言われてるんだ
It's been said that our enemies are those of ships sunk in the past, transformed by their malice.
艦の・・・怨念？
A ship's...malice?
まぁ　詳しくはわかってないんだけど
Well, we don't know the specifics, but...

襲ってくる敵はたしかにおんねんってこと！
Attacking enemies certainly have malice, after all!

ーーー

怨念
Malice

艦の怨念っていうのはどんな感じなんでしょうか・・・
What kind of form does a ship's malice take...?
えーっと
Well...

駆逐艦だとこんな感じかなぁ・・・
Destroyers are kind of like this...

ほい！
Here!

スゴイ雑魚っぽいー！
They really look like the small fry!

怨念２
Malice 2

わっ・・・私たちも轟沈したら　これになっちゃんですかっ？
I...if we sink, will we become like that, too?
そうじゃないかって言われてるけど・・・
I've been told that it's not necessarily like that, but...

じゃ・・・じゃあ　戦艦や重巡の怨念は・・・
T-then...what about the malice of battleships and heavy cruisers...?
たしか・・・
If I remember correctly...

こんな感じ？
Something like this?

轟沈しても　なお格差がある・・・　そう痛感する駆逐艦たちであった
Even after sinking, there's a striking difference in treatment...is what the destroyers fully realized.

ーーーー

射撃訓練
Marksmanship Practice

じゃあ　次は射撃訓練ね
Alright, next is marksmanship practice.
ゴム弾を紙の的に当てるだけだから気楽にね
We're shooting at paper targets with rubber bullets, so enjoy yourselves.
ねぇ吹雪ちゃん
Hey, Fubuki-chan.

私　射撃初めてなんだけど大丈夫かな・・・当たったら痛いよね・・・
It's my first time at a shooting range, so I'm not sure if I'll be alright... It'll hurt if we get hit...
私も初めてだし的に向けて撃つだけだからきっと大丈夫・・・
It's my first time, too, but we're just facing the targets and shooting, so it'll be alright...
痛ったぁ‼
Ow!

（すみませーん）　（いってーな‼）
(Sorr-y) (That hurt!)
こら島風！
Hey, Shimakaze!
今はまだ人に向けて撃つな！
Don't point and shoot at people for now!
今は・・・？
For now...?
あわわわわ・・・
Awawawawa...

器用
Skillful

撃ち方用意！
Prepare to fire!
撃てーーーーー！
Fire!

うううううううう・・・
Uuu...
逆に器用だなぁ・・・
On the contrary, that was pretty skillful...

ーーー

アドバイス
Advice

伊勢先輩　なかなか的に当たらないんですが　どうすればいいですか？
Ise-senpai, I can't really hit the targets. What should I do?
うーん　そうだなー
Well...let's see...

まず的をビシーっと狙って
First, aim with a swoosh of the arms.
どしーんと腰を落としてがっちり横えて・・・
Drop your hips with a clunk, tightly turn to the side...

で　いい感じのとこでかかかかっと撃って
And, at a good time, shoot with a ratatatatat.
敵はドカーン！って感じだな‼
And the enemy goes kaboom! Something like that!

どうしよう・・・
What should I do...
何を言っているのかわからない・・・
I have no idea what she's talking about...

撃て！
Fire!

ほら　休んでないで続けて続けてー
Come on, no time for rest, keep going!
撃てーーー！
Fire!

撃てーーー！
Fire!

・・・
（しっかり狙ってーーー）
(Aim properly...)

私も撃ったらダメかなぁ・・・
Can I shoot, too...?
ダメ！
No!
（マジメに観察しなさいよ‼）
(Watch over it properly!)

ーーー

訓練の成果
Fruits of Practice

白雪ちゃん　だいぶ上手になってきたね
Shirayuki-chan, you've gotten pretty good at this.
吹雪ちゃん
Hey, Fubuki-chan.

最初は怖かったけどだいぶ的に当たるようになってきたよー
I was scared at first, but I was eventually able to hit the targets.
そっかぁ
I see.

それに撃つ時の音や衝撃が気持ちよくて・・・
And the sound when you shoot and the impact feels so nice...
え？
Huh?

なんだか楽しくなってきたみたい
And I ended up enjoying myself.
えええええええ！？
Huuuh!?

雷撃訓練
Torpedo Attack Training

続いて雷撃訓練！
Next up is torpedo attack training!
模擬雷撃をプールに浮かべた船に向かって撃つんだけど・・・
You're going to use the mock torpedos to fire at the enemies floating on the pool, but...

雷撃が得意な大井にお手本見せてもらおうねー　（よろしくー）
We're going to have Ooi, whose specialty is torpedoes, to serve as your role model for this. (Take it from here)
了解しました
Understood.
それでは雷撃演習を開始します
Then let's start the torpedo practice.

なんなのよ　あの作戦　提督のピーー！！
What was with that strategy, ****ing Admiral!
ピー提督‼　１回ピーね！ピー‼
****ing Admiral! ****ing die! ****!

以上です
That's all.
みなさん参考にしてくださいね
Please use this as a reference, alright?
か・・・掛け声は真似ちゃダメだからね・・・！
J...just don't copy her battle shouts!

摸擬魚雷

撃ち方用意！
撃てー！

ゴム弾と違って摸擬弾は当たると音がすごいねー
びっくりしちゃった
・・・

摸擬魚雷でもこんなに音がするんだ・・・
ひどくなってるー！

連合艦隊

最後に艦隊組んで摸擬弾やろっか
はーい

大丈夫かな・・・
まずは吹雪　白雪　初雪と・・・

あれ？　深雪は？
深雪さんはさっき電さんとぶつかって大破しましたー
電さんと一緒に那珂先輩がドックに連れていったみたいですー
暁　雷

そ・・・そっか・・・
ちゃんと帰ってこいよ深雪・・・
なんとなく不穏な空気が流れたので今日の演習は終わりになりました

ーーー

摸擬魚雷
Mock Torpedoes

撃ち方用意！
Prepare to fire!
撃てー！
Fire!

ゴム弾と違って摸擬弾は当たると音がすごいねー
Imitation ammo makes a louder sound than the rubber ones when they hit, huh.
びっくりしちゃった
It surprised me.
・・・

摸擬魚雷でもこんなに音がするんだ・・・
So mock torpedoes can make this kind of sound...
ひどくなってるー！
It's getting worse!

連合艦隊
Combined Fleet

最後に艦隊組んで摸擬弾やろっか
Lastly,let's form some units and fire using the mock bullets.
はーい
Oka-y

大丈夫かな・・・
I wonder if I'll be alright...
まずは吹雪　白雪　初雪と・・・
First off is Fubuki, Shirayuki, Hatsuyuki, and...

あれ？　深雪は？
Huh? Where's Miyuki?
深雪さんはさっき電さんとぶつかって大破しましたー
Miyuki-chan ran into Inazuma-san earlier and was heavily damaged.
電さんと一緒に那珂先輩がドックに連れていったみたいですー
It looks like Naka-senpai took both of them to the dock.
暁　雷
Akatsuki Ikazuchi

そ・・・そっか・・・
I...I see...
ちゃんと帰ってこいよ深雪・・・
You'd better come back, Miyuki...
なんとなく不穏な空気が流れたので今日の演習は終わりになりました
It ended up being an restless atmosphere, so the exercises were ended for the day.

梅雨だねー
It's the rainy season, huh...
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
梅雨だねぇ
Yeah...
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

雨やまないねー
The rain isn't stopping, huh...
やまないねぇ
Yeah...

・・って　私たちぼっとしてていいのかな・・・　朝から何もしてない・・・
...Is it alright to just space out here? We haven't done anything since the morning...

ーーー

今日やること
What to do Today

今日って訓練とか演習とかないのかな？
Is there any training or lessons today?
特に連絡はないけど・・・
We haven't really been told anything...
（コンコン）
(Knock knock)

深雪ちゃん！
Miyuki-chan!
伊勢先輩から連絡－
I have a message from Ise-senpai!
駆逐艦　深雪
Destroyer Miyuki

今日　雨だし　提督が留守で出撃もなくて
It's raining today, and the admiral is absent with no sorties,
みんな休んでてずるいから私休み！
so since it's unfair for everyone to take a break, I will too!
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise

ってさ　（らっきーー）
...Is what she says. (Lucky!)

堂々とサボり・・・‼
An impressive display of truancy...!
このあと日向先輩にパレてました
Hyuuga-senpai found out about it afterwards.

元気になった？
Feeling Better?

深雪ちゃんもう体は大丈夫なの？
Miyuki-chan, is your body alright now?
ああ
Yeah.

大破した時は少し焦ったけど
I was a bit impatient when I was seriously damaged,
トックで休んだらこの通り‼
but it's all better after resting at the dock!
そっか　よかったぁ
I see, that's good to know.

ただ・・・
But...
ただ？
But?

衝突する前の記憶がないのと
I don't have any memories from before I was hit.
いつの間に雷装が上昇してるんだよな・・・
And my torpedo attack stat somehow increased...
（雷装２８）
Torpedo attack: 28
近代化改修！？
She was modernized!?

ーーー

自主訓練
Independent Training

じゃあ　自主訓練でもしょっか
Well then, let's do some training by ourselves.
うん
Yeah.

あッ危ない！
Ah, watch out!
えっ？
Huh?

うりゃ
Take this!
軽巡洋艦　木曾
Light cruiser Kiso
でぇい‼
Grah!
軽巡洋艦　天龍
Light cruiser Tenryuu

血の気の多い子が雨でやることなくて憂さ晴らししてるから・・・
...Because the hotblooded girls are distracting themselves with nothing to do on this rainy day...
はわわわわわ・・・
Hawawawawa....

お誘い
Invitiation

いい機会だし　鎮守府内を探検してみれば？
It's a good opportunity, so why don't we explore the base?
軽巡洋艦　那珂
Light cruiser Naka

初雪ちゃんも誘ってみる？
Can we invite Hatsuyuki-chan, too?
うん
Sure.

初雪ちゃ・・・
Hatsuyuki-ch...

梅雨を満喫してる・・・‼
She's enjoying the rainy season...!
あぁ　おちつく・・・
Ah...how relaxing...
駆逐艦　初雪
Destroyer Hatsuyuki

ーーーー

屋外通路
Outdoor Passage

向こうに行くには外通らないとだめだね
Looks like we have no choice but to leave cover if we want to get there.

通路用の傘があるよ
There are some umbrellas to help with that.
じゃあ　それ差して行こっか
Well then, let's open them up and go.

機関部に引っ掛かって傘が使えない・・・‼
The umbrella is getting caught in our machinery, so we can't use it...!

傘
Umbrella

しょうがないから走って向こうまで行こうか
I guess we have no choice but to run there.
濡れちゃうけどしかたないね
We'll get wet, but we don't really have a choice.

あ　初春ちゃん
Ah, Hatsuharu-chan.
雨は気がめいるのう・・・
Rain is always so gloomy...
駆逐艦　初春
Destroyer Hatsuharu

なんかずるい・・・！
That's kind of unfair...!

ーーー

雨が好き
I like Rain

雨っていいよね・・・
Rain's great, isn't it?
軽巡洋艦　川内
Light cruiser Sendai
・・・雨好きなの？
...You like the rain?
軽巡洋艦　神通
Light Cruiser Jintsu

雨の日に外の通路を通ろうとするとさ
On these rainy days, when you leave the passageway and run outside...

機関部が邪魔で傘が差せない艦娘ちゃんたちが雨に濡れて
The ship girls who can't use the umbrellas because of their machinery get wet from the rain...

背中に下着の線が・・・
And the lines of their underwear on their backs...
機関部が邪魔で見えないだと・・・‼
But their machinery is blocking it!?
（思ったよりぬれなかったね）
(I didn't get as wet as I thought)
（よかった）
(That's good)

夜戦？が好き
I Love Night Warfare(?)

うああああああがっかりだよー
Ahh...what a shame.

はぁ・・・　景気づけにかわいい駆逐艦ちゃんたちと夜戦したいなー
Ah...it would cheer me up if I could do some night warfare with those cute destroyer-chans.

川内ちゃんは本当に夜戦好きだね
You really like night warfare, don't you, Sendai-chan?
そりゃあ・・・
That's because...

私の攻撃で艦娘ちゃんが肌を露わにしてかわいい声で鳴くなんて最高じゃん？
isn't it the best when they make those cute cries after my attacks expose their skin?
（そんなぁ　ダメですぅ‼）
(No...you can't!!)
どうして川内ちゃんが攻撃するの？
Why are you the one attacking?

何かこのドアは開けちゃいけない気がする・・・
For some reason, I feel that I shouldn't open this door...
私も・・・
Me, too...

てるてる坊主
Teru Teru Bozu

てるてる坊主吊るしてるよ！
She's hanging up teru teru bozu!
ほんとだ
She is.

龍田先輩こんにちは！
Tatsuta-senpai, good afternoon!
はぁい　こんにちは～
Ye~s, good morning~
軽巡洋艦　龍田
Light cruiser Tatsuta

てるてる坊主ですか？
You're doing teru teru bozu?
そうよ～　雨ばっかりで嫌になっちゃうからぁ
That's right~ I'm starting to dislike all this rain.
へぇ　かわい・・・
I see, they're pretty...

潜水艦
Submarine
・・・くないーーー‼
...not cute!
（怖い‼）
(Scary!)

吊るす？
Hang them?

最初は普通に吊るしてたんだけとぉ・・・
I was doing it properly at the start...

何か似てるなーって思ったら・・・
But I thought they kind of looked similar...

たのしくなっちゃってぇ～
So I had some fun~

あなたたちも吊るすぅ？
Would you two like to hang some, too?
（オススメは潜水艦とか提督とか新造艦とかだよぉ）
(Recommendations are submarines, the admiral, and bombing squads)
いえっ！遠慮します‼
No thanks! We're alright!

空母寮にて
To the Aircraft Carrier Dorm

こっちは空母寮かぁ
So this way is the aircraft carrier dorm...
割とあんまりかわらないね
Nothing really seems any different.
あっ！
Ah!

廊下に誰か倒れてるよ！
Someone's collapsed in the corridor!

大丈夫ですか！？
Are you alright!?
ああ・・・ありがと・・・
Yeah...thanks...
軽空母　隼鷹
Light aircraft carrier Junyou

油断してたら飛行甲板に被弾しちゃってさ・・・
I wasn't paying attention and my flight deck was bombed...
室内で被弾！？
Indoor bombing!?

被弾
Bombing

ひゃッ
Hya!

どうしたの！？
What's wrong?
く・・・首筋に水が・・・‼
T...there's water on my neck...!
雨漏り・・・？
A roof leak...?
そうみたい あっちにもバケツが・・・　あ
Seems so, there's a bucket over...ah.

雨で被弾！？
A rain bombing!?

ーーー

命懸け
Life and Death

・・・って　こんなにたくさん！？
...Woah, there's this much?

雨の日は命懸けだぜ・・・
Rainy days are a matter of life and death...
いや　修繕すればいいんじゃないでしょうか・・・
Uh, can't you just get them repaired?

そうしたいけどウチは万年資材不足だからね
We'd like to, but we're eternally low on resources.
鎮守府の雨漏りも直せないくらいに！？
Enough not to repair roof leaks at the base!?
そりゃあ・・・
That's because...

ウチには大食喰らいのあｋ・・・
We have the great glutton Aka...
あらあらここも雨漏りしてたのね～
Oh my, looks like there's another roof leak over here~

バケツ
Buckets

ごめんなさいねお手数おかけしちゃって
Sorry to bother you all.
赤城先輩・・・
Akagi-senpai...
正規空母　赤城
Standard aircraft carrier Akagi

また雨漏りを見つけたら教えてね
Tell me if you find another roof leak,
バケツはたくさんあるから
We have a lot of buckets, after all.

あの・・・どうしてそんな大量にはバケツをお持ちなんですか？
Excuse me...why do you have so many buckets?
（バケツ代で修繕したちが・・・）
(They're used for quick repairs...)

ごめんなさい　よく聞こえなかったのだけれど・・・
I'm sorry, I couldn't really hear you...
あ　いえ　なんでもないです・・・
Ah, no, it's nothing...

０４話

なんだか慌ただしいね・・・
Looks like it's a little busy...
何かあったのかな？
I wonder what happened?
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

敵泊地が見つかったから殴りこみをかけてるのよ
We found an enemy anchorage (map area) and hit it.

軽巡洋艦　五十鈴
Light cruiser Isuzu
そうなんですか！
I see!
もう人手不足で大変よ・・・
We're already shorthanded, so it was a mess...

でも戦艦や空母の先輩方は整備終わっているのでは？
But aren't the battleship and carrier senpais finished with maintenace?
それが　敵に潜水艦がいてね・・・
That's because there are enemy submarines...

対潜性能が高い駆逐艦や軽巡が遠征で出払っちゃってて
The destroyers and light cruisers with high antisub capabilities are out on expeditions
すぐに改造できる娘たちが不眠不休で攻撃してるのよ
And those who can remodel early and attacking them day and night.
主に私が
Particularly me.

はぁ・・・提督に主砲ブチかましたい・・・
Ah...I want to bash in the admiral's face with my gun...
五十鈴先輩出てます！なんかダメなの出てます‼
Isuzu-senpai, something's appearing! Something that shouldn't appear!

（大丈夫ですか）
(Are you alright?)
でも　もう・・・限界・・・トックで休・・・
But I'm...at my limit...rest at the dock...

起きなさい！五十鈴！出撃よ！
Wake up, Isuzu! Time to sortie!
うう・・・千歳先輩・・・
Uu...Chitose-senpai...
水上機母艦　千歳

つらいのはわかっているわ・・・
I know it's touch...
でも食べなさい！食べたら即出るわよ！
But eat! We're heading out immediately afterwards!

ごくろうさまだねー
Good work, all
伊勢先輩は出撃されないんですか？
Ise-senpai, you're not going to sortie?

え？　まっ・・・まぁ　まだ私の出撃ではないからね・・・主役は換(?)れてやってくる的な？
Huh? W...well, it's still not my turn... Like the main role was exchanged, in a way.
ここは私の独壇場デース！
This is my exclusive territory DESU!

警戒線突破は私たちは高速戦艦にお任せネ！
Leave breaking through the warning line up to use high speed battleships!
戦艦　金剛
Battleship Kongou
金剛？！
Kongou?!

伊勢サンは私たちの後を付いて来てクダサーイ
Ise-SAN, please follow after us!
うるさいな！　突入隊は敵地に乗り込んでからが本番なんだからな！
Shut up! The main event is after we break into enemy territory!
Oh!伊勢サンの活躍楽しみデース
OH! I'm looking forward to your efforts DESU.
（ゆっくりですすむデース‼）
(Please take it easy and advance DESU!)
（低速だけど　燃料費舐めるんだぞ‼）
(We may have low speed, , but don't mock our fuel consumption!)
戦艦も大変だなぁ・・・
The battleships are having it rough, too...

戦艦

航空戦艦なら扶桑さんたちもいるから安心デスネー
For aviation battleships, we have Fusou and her group, so that's good.
航空戦艦って言ったら私たちだろ！
I'm an aviation battleship too, you know!
改造にも追加されるんだぞ‼
I became one after remodeling!

い・・・伊勢と日向には負けたくないの・・・！
I...I don't won't to lose to Ise and Hyuuga...!
戦艦　扶桑
Battleship Fusou
扶桑！？
Fusou!?

さすがに３人戦艦が集まると・・・
As expected, when three battleships gather together...
四人例えば航空戦艦姉妹ネ‼
If you're talking about groups of four, it's the aviation battleship sisters!
君の姉妹は戦艦（？）だけだから～
Your sisters are just regular battleships~
やめれ‼
Stop!

It gets crowded...!

戦艦　山城

はいはい　もうケンカはやめやめ！
Alright, that's enough. No more fighting!
姉様　いつまで遊んでるんですか
Nee-sama, how long are you doing to play around?
げっ！日向！
Gah! Hyuuga!
キリシマ！？
Kirishima!?

今日はまだ練習があるでしょ！
You still have practices to do!
比叡と榛名が帰ってきました　次は私たちが出撃よ！
Hiei and Haruna have returned, we're going to sortie next!

やましろ～
Yamashiro~

私たちもコンビ芸やった方がいいのかな・・・
I wonder if we should form a pair routine...
いや・・・いいんじゃないかな・・・
No...I think it's alright...
（コンビ芸て）
(for combination routines)

潜水艦
Submarine

じゃあ　今日は　潜水艦の説明ねー
Okay, we will explain about submarines today.
みんなはこの潜水艦と戦うのが主なお仕事だからよく勉強しておいてね
It's your main job to fight these, so study up on it, alright?
（はーーーい）
(Ye-s)

えー　まずこれが潜水艦なんだけど・・・
Well, first off, this is a submarine...

！！

潜水艦にトラウマある子多いなー
Looks like there are a lot of sub trauma victims...

仕事
Work

じゃあ　実戦に関しては五十鈴に来てもらったからちゃんと聞いてねー
Well then, for combat, we have Isuzu here, so listen properly.
（今日は由良が出撃しています）
(Yura is sortied today)

私たちの仕事は潜水艦への攻撃です
Our job is to attack submarines.
潜水艦は雷撃距離までは攻撃してこないから砲撃戦の間にいかに多く撃沈させるかが勝負ね
Submarines won't attack until the torpedo exchange, so you'll win if you can sink many of them during the shelling battle.
（対潜が高い　＝　潜水艦への大ダメージ）
(High antisub = High damage to submarines)
（潜水艦は雷撃しかできない‼）
(Submarines can't do attack with anything other than torpedoes!)

あの・・・もし潜水艦以外の補給部隊や戦艦と戦闘になった場合は・・・？
Excuse me...what if we're fighting things other than submarines, such as supply fleets and battleships?
あーよくあるわよー　そうね・・・
Ah, that happens a lot...let's see...

戦艦の砲撃が当たらないこと祈る・・・かな
Pray that you're not hit by their attacks...I guess.
えええええええええ！
Eeeeeh!?

敵泊地で五十鈴の翔鶴と瑞鶴を見たという情報が・・・
There's been news from Isuzu that she's seen Shoukaku and Zuikaku at the enemy anchorage...
へぇ
I see.

ウチ正規空母少ないしその子たちが来てくれれば私たちもお休みできるかしら
There aren't many regular aircraft carriers here, so maybe we'll be able to relax too if they come.
あはは
Ahaha

ってなんで泣いてるの！？
...Why are you crying!?

諜報

五航戦が来るということは・・・赤城や飛龍たちが・・・
For the 5th Air Attack Force to come...Akagi, Hiryu, and everyone will...

ああ　そういう事ね・・
Ah, so it's about that...

（微笑ましいね。Note）
(How charming.)

確かにそういう記憶も私たちの中にはあるけれど
Certainly, such memories exist within us,
私たちは私たちでしょう？
But we are ourselves, right?

だから心配しないで
So don't worry.

私たちはいなくなったりしないわ
We won't disappear.

イギリスから来た料理

イギリスのお料理食べてみたいです！
I'm like to try some food from England!
Oh!　クッキングはちょっとネ・・・　ダメデース
OH! Cooking is something I...shouldn't do.

金剛お姉さまが日本に来てすぐにイギリス式のカレーを作った時にね・・・
Kongou-oneesama made England-type curry right after she came to Japan...
（スープカレーとパン）
(Soup curry and bread)

パンはちょっと・・・　パカパカする
The bread was kind of...gloppy.
スープが水っぽくって食べにくい
The soup was like water and hard to eat.
でも　肉じゃがと材料は一緒だから便利だな
But it was with the meat and ingredients so it was convenient.
パンはやめてご飯にかければいいんじゃない？
What about using rice instead of bread?
スープに小麦粉を混ぜて　とろみを付ければ食べやすくなるのでは？
How about mixing some flour in the soup to thicken it and make it easier to eat?

という感じで全否定された上にもはや別の食べ物になっちゃって
And it ended up being something completely different at the end.
（カレー自身は好調なんだけど）
(I personally like curry, though)
それ以来お料理しなくなったのよ
And she didn't do any more cooking from then on.
スープカレーもオイシーのにみんな食べてくれまセーン
Soup curry is delicious, but nobody would eat it!

駆逐艦のお仕事
Destroyer's Work

今日の演習は「遠征」です！
We will be practicing expeditions today!
船団護衛は駆逐艦の主な任務だからしっかり練習しましょう
Acting as fleet convoys is a destroyer's chief duties, so practice well.

あの　私たちの主な任務は潜水艦戦闘じゃ・・・
Um, isn't our main responsibility fighting submarines?
出撃先が上常に潜水艦の出現が予測される海域とは限りません！なので　駆逐艦は遠征に出たり提督に秘書艦として日がな1日つつき回されたりします！
Prior to sortieing , it was reported that there are no submarines expected in this area of the ocean. Therefore, the destroyers will act as the admiral's private secretaries and get poked around during the expeditions all throughout today!

ちょっと　提督をそんな悪し様に
Hey, let's not slander the admiral that...

つつかれるんだって・・・
Poked around, she said...
一日中だって・・・
All day, she said...
触られたりするのかな・・・
I wonder if we're going to be touched...
つつくんだから触ったりもするんじゃない？
They're going to poke and touch us?
えーーやだーーー！
Huh, I don't wanna!

そう言うように提督ラブ敵から頼まれました！
And like that, the admiral's love rivals were called out!
ライバルは若芽のうちに絡んであげって
And the sprouts will clash together and form rivalries.
いくらで？
For how much?
給糧艦　間宮のタダ券5枚！
5 food vouchers from the supply ship Mamiya!
安！
How low!

I haven't done much work as his secretary ship, but...

別に触ってもいいけど　時間と場所は弁えてほしいネ！ （金剛）
I don't really mind the touching, but I'd like for him to know the proper time and place! (Kongou)
何度もつつくのはやめていただきたいわ　（霧島）
He just wouldn't stop with the poking. (Kirishima)
スカート引っ張んないでほしいんだよなー　（加古）
Wish he wouldn't pull at my skirt. (Kako)
あれは何かの作戦行動ではないのか！？　（那智）
That wasn't some sort of tactical maneuver!? (Nachi)
・・・っていう話は聞くわね
...Is what I've heard.

時間と場所も弁えないんだー
He doesn't know the proper time and place!
艤装触られるのやだー
I don't want him to pull on my rigging!
何度もつつくんだってこわーーい‼
He won't stop poking, how scary!
私も間宮の羊羹１本くらいもらえるかしら・・・
Maybe I'll just take one order of sweet bean jelly from Mamiya...

この子は最近帰ってきた姉妹艦の三隈です
She recently came back to the base, she's my sister ship, Mikuma.

航空戦艦　伊勢　よろしくねー
I'm an aviation battleship, Ise. Nice to meet you.
同じく日向だ・・・
And I'm Hyuuga...
（モガミン　モガミンてね・・・）
(Mogamin...said Mogamin...)
はじめまして　最上型2番艦三隈と申します
Nice to meet you, I'm the second in the Mogami class of cruisers, Mikuma.

よろしくまりんこっ☆
Nice to meet'cha☆

うわぁ・・・めんどくさそう・・・
Woah...she looks troublesome...

愛称
Pet Name

・・・その・・・モガミンと言うのは・・・？
...So...what's Mogamin...?
三隈がつけたボクのあだ名です・・・
It's her nickname for me...
なるほど愛称か・・・
I see, a pet name...

ならば　私も親愛を込めてモガミンと・・・
In that case, I will also be filled with love and call you Mogamin t-
だっダメです！やめてくださいよー！
Y-you can't! Please don't!

そうだな・・・姉妹艦でもない私が愛称でなど・・・
That's right...someone with no sister ship like me can't have things like a pet name...
えっ？そうじゃなくて・・・‼
Huh? That's not what I meant!
（モガミンっていうのがイヤなだけで）
(Just don't call me Mogamin)
もー　日向はしょうがないなー
Aww, that's alright, Hyuuga.

これから　私のこと「いせりん」って呼んでいいよ！
From now on, you can call me Iserin!
（日向のことはひゅうとんって呼んであげようか？）
(ShallI call you Hyuuton, then?)
絶対やだ
Absolutely not.
（しかもひゅうとんとか他○艦みたいだし）
(And Hyuuton sounds like a certain other *S ship...)

気を取り直して
Pulling Together

それじゃあ遠征について説明するわね
Alright, now let's explain expeditions.
資源を運んだり　護衛をしたり　練習航海に出たり　直接戦闘ではない任務ね
Transporting resources acting as convoys, going on practice voyages, pretty much tasks not involving direct combat.

遠征は駆逐艦だけで行くんですか？
Do just destroyers go on expeditions?
そういった作戦もあるけれど
That kind of strategy exists, but
基本的には軽巡洋艦が旗艦として一緒ね
Usually, light cruisers will act as the flagship and you'll go together.

作戦内容によっては空母や重巡が入ることもあるし
Based on the operation, aircraft carriers and heavy cruisers may come,
私たち航空戦艦が入る任務もあるわよ
And there are tasks involving us aviation battleships, too.
（北号作戦）
(Operation Kita)
日向先輩もですか！？
Hyuuga-senpai, too!?
駆逐艦　初霜＆霞
Destroyers Hatsushimo & Kasumi

まぁ　6隻で言って運べるのは中型貨物船１隻分かっていうささやかな作戦だけどねー
Well, it's just a modest operation where six of us are transported inside a medium sized freighter, though.
そういうこと言わない！
Don't mention that!

任務いろいろ
Various Duties

他にはどんな任務が？
What other kinds of duties are there?
そうねよく行くのだと鼠輸送作戦とか・・・
Well, one that's commonly done is rat transport operations... (Tokyo Express)

鼠！？鼠を輸送ですか！？
Rats!? We're transporting rats!?
違う違う　夜間にこっそり運ぶから鼠みたいだった意味　俗称ね
No, no. It means that we stealthily transport materials in the middle of the night. It's just a name.
俗称といえばさ！
Then say it from the start!

あと　アレも俗称あるじゃん　えーと　ほら！
And a certain something also has a common name...um, you know!
ボーキサイト運ぶ任務なんだけど・・・あッ
The mission where we transport bauxite...ah!


赤城給食！
Akagi Feeding Time!
小破
Slight Damage

タンカー護衛
Tanker Convoy

私たちまだ海に入れないんですが　どうやって練習するんですか？
We still haven't entered the water yet, so how are we going to practice?
陸地を走っての練習になるわねー
It'll involve just running on the ground for practice, huh.

走るんですか・・・　大変そう・・・
Running, huh...sounds hard...
大丈夫かなぁ
I wonder if it will be alright.
まぁまぁ
It'll be fine.

足腰鍛えて燃費よくしておくことに越したことはないから！
It's never a waste of time to train your leg muscles to improve fuel consumption!

・・・と低速で燃費激悪の戦艦様が言ってんぜー
...Says the low speed fuel hog battleship.
軽巡洋艦　天龍
Light cruiser Tenryuu
ひどい！
How mean!

今日の先生は
Today's Teacher is...

輸送任務なら私たちにお任せ！
Leave transport operations to us!
軽巡洋艦　木曾＆那珂＆大井
Light cruisers Kiso, Naka, and Ooi

先輩方は輸送任務がお得意なんですか？
Senpais, you're skilled with transport missions?
すごいわよーなんたって
Yeah, they're pretty great.
実戦にほとんど出ずにずっと輸送任務やってたから！
Because they're always doing this instead of actual combat!

そういうこと言うのやめてくれませんか
Please don't say things like that!
泣きますよ
I'll cry!
ごめんごめん
Sorry!
私も輸送任務は得意なのよ～
I'm good at transport duties, too~
松輸送作戦では東松2号船団の旗艦を務めたんだからぁ
I served as the designated flagship of CruDiv18 under Matsuya's transport operation~
軽巡洋艦　龍田
Light cruiser Tatsuta
すごいです！
That's amazing!

まぁ　その作戦で沈んだんだけど　ウフフフ・・・
Though, I did end up sinking in that operation. Heheheh...
ええええええええ（ｒｙ
Whaaaaaaat!?

ーーーー

艦隊を組もう
Assemble a Fleet

じゃあ　軽巡は駆逐艦5人と艦隊作ってー
Alright, light cruisers, form a fleet from the five destroyers.

軽巡洋艦　由良
Light cruiser Yura
駆逐艦　夕立＆五月雨
Destroyers Yuudachi and Samidare

駆逐艦　初霜＆響
Destroyers Hatsushimo and Hibiki
軽巡洋艦　名取
Light cruiser Natori

うーん　なんていうか・・・別にいいんだけど・・・
Uh...I mean...it's alright, but...
いいんだけど　もうちょっと縁起のいい艦隊にしよ？
It's alright, but maybe we should form fleets with better omens?

多号作戦
Battle of Ormoc Bay

駆逐艦　初春
Destroyer Hatsuharu
駆逐艦　島風
Destroyer Shimakaze
初春！私たちも行くよ！
Hatsuharu! We're going, too!

これ島風！そのように急にては・・・
Hold, Shimakaze! If you hurry in such a manner...
あっ！
Ah!

うわーん‼やめてよー！
Aah! Stop it!

蜂の巣にされておる・・・
She struck a beehive...
おそろしや・・・
How dreadful...

おまえら抜錨だ！ついてこい！地上だけど
We're setting out, you lot! Follow me! Though it's still on the land.
はいっ！
Yes!
駆逐艦　潮＆涼風＆磯波＆電
Destroyers Ushio, Suzukaze, Isonami, and Inazuma

電！おせーぞ！列乱すな！
Inazuma, what's the holdup!? Don't disturb the line!
そんなことじゃいつまで経っても観艦式になんて出られねーぞ！
You won't pass the naval review with something like that
（大丈夫？）
(Are you alright?)

おーし！よくやったなおまえら！
Yeah! Nice work, you lot!
なかなか　筋がいいじゃねーか！
You have some nice muscles after all!

天龍って　何気にこういうの向いてるよね・・・
Tenryuu seems suited for these kinds of things for some reason...
姉さんキャラと言うか・・・
Like an older sister character...
おまえら　シメにもいっちょ行くぞ！
Everyone, let's finish this up!
はいッ‼
Yeah!
そうね・・・
Seems that way...
真似と純血（？）・・・
(Too many pixels, テヘ☆)

貴重品
Valuables

んじゃ　輸送の練習ねー　この箱をひとり1個ずつ持ってー
Alright, now for transportation practice. Take a box, one at a time...

燃料と鋼材とゴムが入ってるから落とさないようにね
There's fuel, steel, and rubber inside, so don't drop them.
海で落としたら回収できないんだから
We can't recover them if they fall in the sea, after all.
ほんとだ燃料と鋼材と・・・
It's true, there's fuel and steel and...

なんで　ゴムのおもちゃなの！
Why are there rubber toys!?
だって生ゴムなんて貴重品　用意できるわけないじゃん‼
But crude rubber's valuable, there's no way we could prepare some for this!

じゃあ　なんで蛇なのよ‼
Then why snakes!?
みんな驚くかなーって　おちゃめ？
Thought it would surprise everyone, you know. Some mischief, you know?
は！？
Huh!?

ーーー

走れ！
Run!

よーし　最後は長距離練習航海の練習！鎮守府まで走るよ！
Alright, last is some long distance voyage running training! Run all the way to the base!
あっ
Ah!

そんなに張り切りすぎると・・・！
If you encourage them that much...!
走れ走れー！
Run, run!

ま・・・待って・・・
W...wait...

みんな待ってぇぇぇ・・・
Wait for meee...

低速の私たちが駆逐艦につていけるわけないでしょう・・・
There's no way our low speeds could be a match for those destroyers...

ごほうび
Reward

今日はたくさん走ったから間宮で冷たいもの食べようか・・・
Since we ran a lot today, let's eat something cool at the base...
わー‼
Yay!

アイス食べてもいいですか？
Can we have ice cream?
いいよー好きなもの食べなー
Sure, pick whatever you want.
私　羊羹がいいな！
I'd rather have sweet bean jelly!

さっそくタダ券使ってあげるなんて優しいじゃない
Well aren't you nice, using up your vouchers right off.

この人数じゃ自費（？）もならないとだし
With this many people, you're going to end up paying out of pocket.
え？
Huh?

そんなの提督にツケるに決まってんじゃん
It's obvious that the admiral's going to take care of this.
（Nope）

駆逐艦　舞風ちゃんが転入してきました
Destroyer Maikaze has moved in.

こんにちはー！陽炎型駆逐艦舞風でーす
Good morning! I'm a Kagerou class destroyer, Maikaze!
趣味はダンスでー 暗い雰囲気は苦手です！
My hobbies are dancing (from the kanji) and I'm bad with gloomy atmospheres!

For someone to join at this time, perhaps she was born overseas? Her hair is blond.

筑摩先輩に会いたいな！
I'd like to meet Chikuma-senpai!
筑摩先輩って重巡の？
She's a heavy cruiser, right?

じゃあ　重巡寮から回ろっか
Then let's go around the heavy cruiser dorm.
うん！ヨロシクねー
Yeah, let's!
ねぇ　どうして筑摩先輩に会いたいの？
Hey, so why do you want to meet Chikuma-senpai?

野分の行方を聞きたいから・・・
I'd like to ask about Nowaki's whereabouts...
合わせない方がいいんじゃ・・・
Maybe they shouldn't meet...

接触禁止
No Contact Allowed

あの建物は？
What's that building?
空母寮だよ
It's the aircraft carrier dorm.
正規空母や軽空母　水上機母艦の先輩方が生活してるの
The regular aircraft carriers, light carriers, and seaplane mothership senpais live there.
へぇ
I see.

そういえば　伊勢先輩が空母寮には連れていくなって言ってたね
Come to think of it, Ise-senpai told us not to take you here.
どうしてかな・・・
I wonder why...
空母　加賀
Aircraft carrier Kaga

空母　赤城
Aircraft Carrier Akagi
戦艦　日向

あ・・・赤城に雷撃はさせないぞ・・・‼

重巡洋艦　青葉
Heavy cruiser Aoba

青葉先輩何してるんですか？
Aoba-senpai, what are you doing?
しーっ！敵に気づかれちゃうから！
Shh! The enemy will notice us!
敵？
The enemy?

べっ別に演習が厳しいから逃げてきたんじゃないからねっ！
I-it's not like I ran away because the exercises were too tough!
逃げ出してサボってるんですね・・・
So she ran away and skipped, huh...

青葉先輩がサボ・・・‼
Aoba-senpai is at Savo...! (See Second Battle of Savo Island/Battle of Cape Esperance)
吹雪ちゃん？
Fubuki-chan?
吹雪にとってサボは禁句です
Looks like Savo is a taboo word for Fubuki.

撤退
Withdrawal

ダメです！青葉先輩はサボっちゃダメです！　今すぐ戻って下さい‼
You can't skip, Aoba-senpai! Please go back now!

I've heard that the Myoukou-class's Ashigara-senpai holds an alias as the Hungry Wolf.

飢えた狼・・・
Hungry wolf...

こう？
Like this?
はらへったー
I'm hungry!
ちがーう！
No!

狼と・・・
The Wolf And...

飢えた狼っていうのはこの精悍なボディと機能美を類える言葉なの！
The Hungry Wolf refers to this fearless body and functional beauty!
決して腹ペコじやナイの！
It in no way refers to being hungry!

ね・・・姉さん　そんなに怒らなくても・・・
Ne...neesan, you don't have to get that angry...
重巡洋艦　羽黒
Heavy cruiser Haguro

Yes, that is a fine response.
では先輩としてお主にアドバイスをひとつくれてやろう
Then as an upperclassman, I shall give you a piece of advice.
突撃を主とする我らが見るは常に前！
Always face forward when on the attack!
前方に集中してこそ活路が開けるのじゃ！
Facing forward itself is a means of survival!

姉さん・・・私がとっておいたアイスクリーム勝手に食べましたね・・・
Nee-san...you ate the ice cream I left aside, didn't you...
いいか！常に前じゃ！　振り返ると死ぬぞ！　我輩が！

Um...what happened to Nowaki after that?
あなた・・・野分ちゃんの僚艦だった子ね

ごめんなさい・・・私を助けに来てくれた所までしか憶えてないの・・・
I'm sorry...I don't remember anything other than the place where she came to save me...
そう・・・ですか・・・
I...see...

どうしよう・・・　いつになくシリアスな展開！？
What should I do...it got all serious all of a sudden!

ーーー

能美島
Nomishima (Island near Etajima)

利根先輩どちらへ？
Tone-senpai, where are you going?
決まっておろう　筑摩の気がそれているうちに撤退じゃ
It's a given, I'm retreating while Chikuma's attention is drawn.
向こうの島あたりまで逃げれば大丈夫じゃろ
I should be alright if I escape to an island on the opposite side.

マジメな話してるみたいですけど逃げちゃっていいんですか？
But they're having a pretty grave discussion, is it alright to just run?
めずらしくシリアスな感じですよ
It's unusually serious for once.

それより　自分の命のほうが大切じゃ
Rather than that, my life is of more importance.
友にとうないに
She is no friend of mine!

利根出撃するぞ！
Tone, setting out!
シリアス空気だいなし・・・
Ruined the serious mood...
あっ！利根姉さん‼
Ah! Tone-neesan
翌日　逃げ込んだ島で大破してる利根先輩が発見されたそうです
The next day, Tone-senpai was discovered on the island she escaped to with serious damage.

妖精への祈り
Prayer to the Fairy

結局　野分ちゃんのことはわからなかったね
Guess we didn't learn anything about Nowaki-chan after all.
筑摩先輩も追いかけて行っちゃったし
Chikuma-senpai went after her, too.
まぁ　そのうち見つかるよー
Oh well, we'll find her eventually.

そうだ！早く見つけようにお祈りしておこうかな
That's right! I'll pray for her fast discovery, then.
どうして　猫さんにお祈りするの？
Why are you praying to cat?
野分がみつかりますよーーーに‼
Please let Nowaki be found!

なんか猫の後ろにスゴイパワーを感じたの！
I can feel a great power behind the cat for some reason!
妖精さんかなぁ？
Could it be a fairy?

Heh...you all fell for it!

これで任務は失敗よ！
Looks like you've failed your mission with this!
あーっ！
Ah!

残念でしたー
Too bad~
っていうか赤城さんトラウマをネタにされてでもボーキサイトを食べたかったんだ・・・
I mean, even though they're joking about Akagi's trauma, she still wanted to eat bauxite...
本当にお好きなんですね・・・
She must really like it...

どうしたの？
What's the matter?
いや・・・
Well...

赤城が食べたぶんのボーキサイトはどこから捻出したのかと思って
I was wondering where the bauxite you ate came from.
全部　食べたでしょ？
You ate all of it, didn't you?

翌朝　ボーキサイトの残量を確認した　提督の絶叫が鎮守府に響き渡ったそうです
The next day, the remaining amount of bauxite was checked. The admiral's screams resounded all across the base.

今日はお待ちかねの海上訓練を行います！
Today we're going to start the much-awaited sea training!
戦艦　伊勢

最初は兵装なしとかでやるんですか？
We're not going to do it first without equipment?
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
その気持ちはわかるんだけど・・・
I understand what you're feeling...
重いし不安だもんね
Their weight makes you nervous, huh.

兵装なしでも練習はできるけど
We can practice without weapons,
実際出撃するときは重装備に改造されてたり遠征の荷物持ったりするから・・・
but if you go sortie for real, get your equipment remodeled, and carry expedition materials...
＊イメージ図

コツつかんどかないと下手すると友鶴よ？
You could end up Tomozuruing if you screw up, you know?
兵装ありで練習します！
I'm going to practice with equipment!

ざっくり説明するとー
To describe it loosely...
海面に出た後
After you go on the surface of the sea,
安定したら　動けーって思ったら動くから
you start moving after you feel stable and ready to go.

あの・・・
Excuse me...
できればもうちょっと具体的に・・・
Could you please describe it more completely?
ざっくりすぎます・・・
It's too vague...
そう言われても呼吸の仕方を説明するようなものだからなぁ・・・
Well, it's like teaching someone how to breathe...

うーん・・・具体的に・・・
Hmm...concretely...

なんか　そういうふうにできてるから大丈夫！
Well, if you feel up to it, it'll be fine!
やればできる！
You can do it if you try!
投げた！
She gave up!

サポータ
Supporter

えっ？　伊勢先輩は海に出ないんですか？
Huh? You're not going on the sea with us?
海に出ると燃料使っちゃうでしょ？
You use fuel when on the sea, right?
南方海域強襲偵察で燃料スッカスカなのよ
Southern Sea Assault Reconnaissance uses up a lot of fuel, you know.

大丈夫大丈夫　燃費がいい重巡が補助するから
But it's alright, we have some fuel efficient heavy cruisers to help out.
安定感もあるでしょ
You can count on them.
それなら・・・
In that case...

あと　万が一転覆してもイムヤとゴーヤが
And in the worst case scenario, Imuya and Goya will-
潜水艦　伊58＆伊168
Submarines I-58 and I-168

雷撃処分！？

誰から行く？
Who's going first?
わたし1番目とか無理だよー！

まっすぐ立たないと斜めになってたら転覆するよー
If you don't stand straight up, you're going to go diagonal and capsize...

足は揃えてー裂けちゃうよー
Bring together your legs, they're splitting.

何かに似てると思ったら・・・
We thought it looked similar to something...

負けないって空母と戦艦じゃそもそもの役目が・・・
Aircraft carriers and battleships, serve different purposes, though...
（私たち元戦艦だけど）
(We were initially planned to be battleships, though)

ボーキサイトの女王として！
...As the Bauxite Queen!
そっちか
That part, huh.

見えないダメージ

Alright, that's enough for today!

今度海上練習もやるから時間あるときに各自練習しといてね
We're going to keep training on the sea, so do some individual practice if you have the time.
\はーい/
Oka-y!

鎮守府に戻ったらしっかりドックで体休めなさいよー
Get yourselves properly rested at the dock when you get back, too.
どうしてですか？　特に問題はありませんけど・・・
But why? There doesn't seem to be any problems...

明日　筋肉痛がすごいから
Because your muscle pains will be pretty bad tomorrow.
普段使わない筋肉だからすごいよ
It uses muscles not usually used, so it'll be pretty intense.
！！

ドックでゆっくり休みましたがそれでも筋肉痛がひどかったです
They rested at the dock, but the muscular pain was still intense.

それに国民的人気も圧倒的に長門さんたちのほうが・・・
And nationally, you're overwhelmingly more popular...
（私はずっと隠（？）されてましたから・・・）
(I was always kept a secret, after all...)
国民的人気・・・
National popularity...

But you're the one who ended with with all the anime and manga afterwards!
創作も含むんですかっ！？
We're including productions, too!?

ホテル大和
Hotel Yamato

どうして大和先輩はホテルって言われてるんですか？
Why were you called a hotel?
うっ・・・
Uu...
ストレートに聞くねー
Asked it directly, huh.

居住性のよさと重要艦として動かしづらいってのがあったからね
It's because she was pretty livable and didn't move much because of her important ship status.
燃費の問題もあるけど
And the fuel comsumption, too.
うう・・・
Uu...
居住性ですか・・・
Livability, huh...

居住性といえばアイスもそうだけどなんたって大和は冷暖房完備だからねー
Not only did it mean there was ice cream, but Yamato had complete air conditioning as well.

そうだよー
That's right.

お洋服や兵装が違うので聞くまでわかりませんでした
Your Western clothes and uniforms are different, so I didn't know until I asked.
ボクたちの問題点を改善したのが鈴谷たちだからね・・・
It's because Suzuya's group was made with improvements from our issues...
鈴谷型とも言うし
It was even called a separate Suzuya class.

でっ・・・でも最上型はちょー仲良し姉妹艦なんだよっ！
B...but the Mogami-class of sisters gets along REALLY well!

なんてっだって　重巡の中でも姉妹艦全員沈んだのは最上型と古鷹型だけなんだから！
That's because within the heavy cruisers, only the Mogami and Furutaka classes completely sank!

全然自慢になってないよ鈴谷・・・
That's nothing to brag about, Suzuya...
（気持ちはうれしいけど）
(The meaning got through, though)

ーーー

お使いできるかな？
Can you do a Favor?

熊野ー　ちょっとお使い行ってきてもらえる？
Kumano, can I ask you for a favor?
はい
Alright.

これを間宮まで届けてきて
Deliver this to Mamiya, then.
了解しました
Understood.

あれ？　伊勢先輩　熊野知りません？
Huh? Ise-senpai, have you seen Kumano anywhere?
間宮までお使い行ってもらったよー
I had her run an errand to Mamiya.
えッ　もしかしてひとりですか？
Wha-! Was it by herself?
それだけど？
What of it?

ダメですよ！熊野はひとりだと絶対に帰ってこれないんすよ！？
You can't! If she's alone, she'll definitely never come back, you know!?

何それ呪い！？
Is that some kind of curse!?

熊野帰投する
Kumano Returns to Base

雨程度ではまけません・・・わあああああ
I won't lose to this bit of ra....iiiiiii-

You invented Tatsuta-age, right?
Note: Tatsuta-age was invented by Tatsuta's head cook.It involves flavoring the item to be fried in soy sauce and cooking sake, covering it in potato starch, and deep frying it.
そうよ～
That's right~

でも　どうして小麦粉の代わりに片栗粉を使おうと思ったんです？
But why did you decide to use potato starch instead of wheat flour?

貧乏だったからよ？
Because I was poor?~

小麦粉が買えなくて仕方なく片栗粉を・・・
I couldn't afford flour, so I had to settle with the starch...

What's wrong?

赤城・・・
Akagi...

上から「最近　資源の減りが早いが「食欲の秋」にかこつけている者がいるんじゃないか？」って・・・・
The higher-ups were saying "Recently, resources have been decreasing quickly. Isn't there someone using autumn appetites there as an excuse?"...
なんでそれで私の名前が出るの
Why did my name come up from that.

まったく失礼な話だわ・・・　赤城の食欲には季節など関係ないというのに・・・・
Sheesh, what a rude thing to say... Even though your appetite has nothing to do with the seasons...
（だから空母は関係ありませんって）
(That's why I said the aircraft carriers had nothing to do with it)

えっ　失礼じゃない？そっちのほうが失礼じゃない！？
Huh? That wasn't rude? Isn't that the rude part!?

第１２話

少し前に潜水艦の先輩が配属されました
A while ago, the submarine upperclassmen joined.
潜水艦　伊168、伊58
Submarines I-168, I-58

こないだの試験しで会った人もいるかんもしれないけど・・・
Though there may be some people who met them during that test the other day...

誰か会った・・・？
Did anyone meet them...?
ううん・・・？
No...?
どこだろう・・・
Where were they...?

スミマセン　スミマセン！
I'm sorry! Sorry!
すみませんでち・・・
Sorry-dechi...

全員に気付かれなかったんだ・・・‼
Everybody didn't notice them...!

ーーーー

大活躍
Working Hard

どうしてご挨拶がこんなに遅れたんですか？
Why were the greetings delayed this long?
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
ふたりは配属されてからずっと出撃しっばなしだったからね
It's because these two have been on constant sorties since they were assigned.
戻ってきてても入渠してたし
And they go to the dock every time they return.

すごいです！大活躍なんですね！
That's amazing! You're doing a lot, right!
そーでち！大活躍なんでち！
Right-dechi! We're working hard-dechi!
大活躍っていうか・・・
Speaking of working hard...

大破しても疲労してもへとへとでも旗艦から外れようとしなくて・・・
Even with major damage and fatigue, being completely exhausted but not being leaving the flagship position...
（もうやめなよー）
(Just stop already!)
（まだ出れますから‼）
(I can still go out!)
えっ！？
What!?

これくらい五十鈴の苦労に比べば・・・
But compared to what Isuzu had to do through...
（まだまだ！）
(It's not enough!)
ドＭ！？
Masochists!?

頑張れば・・・
Try Hard Enough, And...

でも　今はお休みになったんですね
But it's become a day off for now.
お休みっていうよりは・・・
Rather than it being a break...

見かねた司令部が「旗艦が大破したら戻ってくる」よう厳命したのよ
We've had strict orders from Headquarters, who couldn't take it anymore, to come back if our flagship gets seriously damaged. (Wow, they fit in the update...)
（無理しすぎないようにって）
(Said not to overdo it)
司令部ストップ！
A stop from Headquarters!

私たちもっと頑張れたのにねぇ
If only we could try harder...
そーでち　もっともっと頑張れば・・・
Right-dechi, if we could try even harder...

五十鈴みたいに　改二にしてもらえたのにー‼
We could have received a second remodel like Isuzu!
改二ってそういうふうになるものなんですか！？
Is that how you get a second remodel!?
＊なれません
*It's not.

ーーー

かいてん
Rotation

潜水艦ってそんなにすごいんですか？
Are submarines really that great?
先制雷撃ができて対潜攻撃を引き受ける囮役としても優秀で・・・
They can torpedo attack preemptively and are excellent as decoys to draw anti-sub attacks...

ダメージを受けても入渠時間が短いから回転率を上げ・・・
And even if they get damaged, their repair times are short, so their turnover rate is...
かいてん！？
Kaiten!? (Torpedo modified as a suicide weapon)

その「かいてん」じゃなくて回すほうの・・・
Not that "kaiten", I meant you're easily replaced...
回！？
We're expendable!?

（うわぁぁん）
(Waaah!)
（ごめんごめん）
(Sorry!)
よくわからないけど「かいてん」は禁句なんだなっておもいました
I don't really get it, but I think "kaiten" is a taboo word for them.

伊19
I-19

そういえばもうひとり一緒に来るんじゃなかったっけ？
Come to think of it, weren't you supposed to come with somebody else?

あ　伊19のことですか
Ah, you mean I-19?
あー　そうそうその子
Ah, yeah. That girl.

実は・・・
Actually...
（ごめんね～
忘れ物したから
とりにいってくるね
先に行ってて（＞∇＜）ノ）
(Sorry~
I forgot something
so I'm going back for it.
Go on ahead of me（＞∇＜）ノ )


----

後姿
Rear View

どーしたでち？
What's up-dechi?
あの・・・なんか後ろからみてると水着が・・・
Well...looking at you from the back, I've been thinking...

下着みたいだなって・・・
You swimsuit looks kind of like underwear...

ぱっ・・・ぱんつじゃないでち！だから恥ずかしくないよっ！
Th-....they're not panties-dechi! So it's not embarassing!
（水着でち！）
(It's a swimsuit-dechi)
（あはは）
(Ahaha)

仲よくできるかな？
Can we get Along?

まぁ　とにかく潜水艦ぶたりと仲よくしてあげ・・・
Well, in any case, please get together with these two submari...

あれ？
Huh?
（しらゆき　ふぶき　はつはる　わかば）
(Shirayuki Fubuki Hatsuharu Wakaba)

・・・何人が減ってない？
...Haven't we lost some people?

曙さんと子日さんとあと何人か逃げ出しましたー
Akebono-san, Nenohi-san, and some others ran away.
潜水艦トラウマ組か・・・
The submarine trauma group, huh...

ーーー

たいへん
Tough

すみません！逃げちゃった子も決して悪気があるわけじゃ・・・
I'm sorry! It doesn't mean the girls who ran away mean anything bad...
慣れてるから大丈夫よ　こないだも・・・
We're used to it, so it's okay. Even recently...

ああ？潜水艦？
Aah? Submarines?
・・・
重巡洋艦　愛宕、摩耶
Heavy Cruisers Atago, Maya

うふふふふ
Ufufufufu
よろしくおねがいしますねぇ～
It's nice to meet you~
軽巡洋艦　龍田
Light Cruiser Tatsuta

ううう・・・
Uuu...
もうその話はやめるでち‼
Don't mention that anymore-dechi!

潜水艦って大変なんだなぁ・・・
Looks like the submarines have it tough...

仲よし
Getting Along

でも　仲よしの艦もいるんでちよ！
But, there are ships we get along with, too!
由良とか鬼怒とか！
Like Yura and Kinu!
軽巡洋艦　鬼怒、由良
Light Cruisers Kinu, Yura

あの子らは潜水隊旗艦もやったからねー
Must be because they were flagships of submarine fleets.
潜水隊の旗艦って潜水母艦だけじゃないんですね
So submarine fleet flagships aren't just submarine carriers, huh.
（知りませんでした）
(I didn't know that)

あとは母艦の・・・名前なんだっけ・・・
Also, there were the motherships...what were their names...
えーっとえーっと・・・つ・・・つる・・・
Umm, umm...Tsu....Tsuru...

剣埼と高崎！
Tsurugizaki and Takasaki!
誰！？
Who!?

－－－

名前
Names

ええと剣埼さんと高崎さんというのは・・・
Umm, who are Tsurugizaki-san and Takasaki-san...?
剣埼は剣埼　高崎は高崎でち！
Tsurugizaki is Tsurugizaki, Takasaki is Takasaki-dechi!
も～
Come on~

その名前で呼ばないで~
Don't call me that~
瑞鳳って呼んでよー
Call me Zuihou...
軽空母　瑞鳳、祥鳳
Light Carriers Zuihou, Shouhou

祥鳳先輩と瑞鳳先輩・・・？
Shouhou-senpai and Zuihou-senpai?
ふたりは元々給油艦／潜水母艦として設計されていて最終的に軽空母になったのよ
The two of them were originally planned to be tankers/submarine carriers before finally converting into light carriers.
その時の名前が剣埼さんと高崎
And their names at that time were Tsurugizaki and Takasaki.
なるほどー
I see!

真の名前ってやつですね・・・
So it's their true names, huh...
（かっこいい！）
(Cool!)
うーん　ちょっと違うかなー
Well...it's kind of different...

潜水艦はすごいのです
Submarines are Amazing

空母のみんなとは結構仲いいんだよー
We get along pretty well with the carriers.
特に仲のいい方とかいるんですか？
Is there anyone you get along particularly well with?

赤城と加賀なんかはすごく仲がいいよ
We get along really well with Akagi and Kaga.
あと蒼龍と飛龍も
And Souryuu and Hiryuu, too.

正規空母の先輩と！？
With the regular aircraft carrier upperclassmen!?

イムヤさん！
Imuya-san!
イムヤさん　あの時は本当にありがとうございました・・・！
Imuya-san, thank you so much for that time...!
正規空母　加賀、赤城
Regular Aircraft Carriers Kaga, Akagi

もー　そんなに堅苦しくしなくていいってばー
Aww, you don't have to be that formal, you know.
いや　そういうわけには・・・！
No, we cannot do something like that...!
潜水艦ってすごい！
Submarines are amazing!

駆逐艦　暁、電、雷
Destroyers Akatsuki, Inazuma, Ikazuchi

ん～・・・　（まぶしー）
Mm~ (It's bright...)

あれ？　響・・・
Huh? Hibiki...
目が覚めたら
When I woke up...

響がロシアの子になっていました
Hibiki became a Russian girl.
（おはよう）
(Good morning)
駆逐艦 Верный（ヴェールヌイ）
Destroyer Верный(Verunui)
誰！？
Who are you!?

ーーー

ロシア語
Russian

響ちゃんがロシアの子に！？
Hibiki-chan became Russian!?
駆逐艦　白雪、吹雪、深雪
Destroyers Shirayuki, Fubuki, Miyuki
それで　言葉がよくわかんなくて・・・
And we can't really understand her...

私に任せて！
Leave it to me?
えっ？
Wha-?

ねぇ・・・
Hey...

吹雪ちゃんってロシア語できたんだね
So Fubuki-chan can speak Russian.
（知らなかった）
(I didn't know that.)
あれ　多分うちらもやろうと思ったらできると思う・・・
I think that we could probably do that too if we tried...
そうなの！？
Really!?
声帯にいる妖精さん的な意味で
In a vocal cord-related way. (Same VA)

日本語？
Japanese?
（こんにちは！）
(Hello!)
（やぁ・・・）
(Hey...)

（あなたのお名前は？）
(What's your name?)
（ヴェールヌイ）
(Verunui)

（どこから来たの？）
(Where did you come from?)
（体調は悪くない？）
(Are you feeling alright?)
（日本語は話せる？）
(Can you speak Japanese?)
うう・・・
Uu...

にっ・・・日本語で・・・大丈夫から・・・
I-...I'm fine with...Japanese...
そう？　よかったー
Really? Thank goodness.

相談
Consultation

加賀先輩に相談してみました
They asked Kaga-senpai for advice.
艦の記憶が急に戻ったのかもしれないわね・・・
Her ship's memory may have suddenly returned...
正規空母　加賀
Regular Aircraft Carrier Kaga

響は戦後はソ連に引き渡されたそうなのでそれでしょうか
Hibiki was handed over to the Soviet Union after the war, so maybe it's that.
多分そうでしょうね
Seems that way.
何かきっかけに艦の記憶がよみがえる娘が結構いるのよ
There happens to be a good number of ships that have recalled memories around here.

例えば赤城の「慢心」とか・・・
Like Akagi's "conceit"...
ああ
Ah!

赤城スイッチ！
The Akagi Switch!
また変な名前付けられてる・・・
Another strange name was given to her...

きっかけ
Catalyst

何か　きっかけになるようなことはなかったの？
Did something happen to cause this?
それらしい言葉とか
Like a familiar phrase or something.
たしか昨日・・・
Well, yesterday...

宴会をしてた千歳先輩たちの片付けを手伝ってて・・・
We helped clean up Chitose-senpai's banquet...
宴会の手伝いをあなたたちにやらせてたの！？
They made you help with that!?
軽空母　千歳、隼鷹
Light Aircraft Carriers Chitose, Junyou

そこに「うぉつか」っていうロシアのお酒があったから珍しいなってみてたら・・・
And there we saw a strange drink from Russia called "vodka"...
まさか響がウオッカを飲ん・・・！？
Don't tell me Hibiki drank...!?

これはダメよって言われて紅茶とシャムをもらいました
But they told us we couldn't and we got some black tea and jam.
ほっ・・・
I see...

ーーー

思い当たること
What Comes to Mind

でも　これまでも紅茶は何回も飲んだことありますよ
But we've drank black tea plenty of times.
ロシアンティー　金剛先輩に振る舞ってもらったことにあるもんね
Kongou-senpai made some Russian tea for us, too.

じゃあ　それ以外に思い当たることは？
Well, do you remember anything other than that?
あっ・・・
Ah...
何かあるの？
Did something happen?

でも・・・
But...
怒ったりしないから何かあるなら教えて？
I won't get mad, so tell me if there's something.

多分　あの子たちへの怒りを上回ることはないから・・・
It probably wouldn't exceed my anger towards those girls...
（ただでさえ食事ギリギリなのにどこからお酒なんて出てきたのかしら・・・）
(Even when it's so close to mealtime, why is there sake around, I wonder...)

昨夜の出来事
Last Night's Incident

その後　お菓子を分けていただいたので4人で夜のお茶会をしてたんですけど・・・
Afterwards, we split up some sweets and the four of us had a tea party at night...
（すみません～）
(Sorry...)
・・・口封じのつもりだったんでしょうね
...So you promised to keep it a secret.
（あなたたちも夜間時間熟練（？）だけど）
(Though you're all skilled at nighttime)

それで？
And then?
遅くなってしまったのでそのまま私と響の部屋で4人で寝たんですが
It became late, so we slept in the room that I share with Hibiki...
たまたま　夜中一緒に目が覚めたのでお手洗いに3人で行ったんです
And by chance, three of us woke up in the middle of the night, so we went to the restroom together.

帰ってきたら響が布団に包まってて
And when we came back, Hibiki was wrapped up in her futon.
ちょっと気になったんですけどそのまま寝たんです
We were kind of bothered by it, but we let her sleep.
・・・なるほどね
I see.

その時に何かあったんでしょうか・・・
It seems that something happened at that time...
もしかしたら3人がいない間に響も目が覚めたんじゃないかしら・・・
Perhaps she woke up when you three weren't around...
あ
Ah

ーーー

原因
Cause

もしかして響は私たちがまたいなくなったと思って？
Maybe Hibiki thought we were gone again?
ふむ・・・
Hmm...

あなたたちを守るために強くならなければという思いは十分きっかけになると思うわ
I think the thought of having to become stronger to protect you all would work well enough as a catalyst.
響・・・
Hibiki...

じゃあ　響に私たちはもういなくなってりしないよって教えてあげられれば・・・
Then if we teach her that we won't go away anymore...
（名前なんだっけ）
(What was her name, again?)
そうね・・・
Maybe...
（じゃあ　ベルちゃん？）
(So, Bel-chan?)

赤城は後悔の念に苛まれるだけだから一発ガツンとやれば収まるのだけど・・・
We managed to sort out the regrets that plagued Akagi with a single whack, though...
（今回はやめておいた方がいいわね）
(Sounds better not to do it this time)
がつん・・・！？
A whack...!?

解決方法
Solution

今日も
Tonight,
みんなで一緒に寝るのです！
let's all sleep together again!

お布団くっつけてみんなで寝よー
Let's snuggle in the futon and sleep together!
ヴェールヌイ真ん中ね
Verunui, you're in the center, okay?
構わないが・・・
I don't mind...

お布団の隙間に落ちるのですー
I'll falling into the futon's gap!
もうちょっとそっち詰めてよー
Move over there some more!
電気消すよー
I'm turning off the lights!

・・・暖かい
....It's warm.

夜　目が覚めて
Waking up at Night

あれ？響・・・
Huh? Hibiki...

・・・おはよう

I don't have a place to make them here, so please wait, okay?
（ごめんなさいね）
(I'm sorry)
（はーい！）
(Oka-y!)
結局　ハロウィンよりも鳳翔さんお手製の慰問袋が駆逐艦の間で大流行しました
In the end, rather than Halloween, it was Houshou's handmade comfort bags that became all the rage amongst the destroyers.
（Ｏｈ！体とられたネ‼）
(OH! She got me!)

第15話

今日は4人1組で海軍戦闘と遠征をやってまらいます
We'll be having teams of four doing naval battles and expeditions today.
海軍戦闘ですかっ？
Naval battles?
戦艦　日向
Battleship Hyuuga

戦闘っていっても摸擬戦だから安心して
It's a mock battle, don't worry.
多少は痛いけど
It might hurt, though.
（えーー‼）
(Wha!?)

あの　旗艦の先輩はいらっしゃらいないんでしょうか・・・
Um, aren't upperclassmen coming with us as flagships...?
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
今回は駆逐艦だけでいってもらうけど大丈夫
We're just going with destroyer this time, but it'll be alright.

伊勢が水上偵察機飛ばしてちゃんと見てるから
Ise's watching over with sea reconnaissance planes, after all.
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
水上訓練の時遊んでた罰だ・・・！
Her punishment for playing around at the water surface training!

ーーー

出撃！
Sortie!

いよーし！行くぞーっ！
Alright! Here we go!
駆逐艦　深雪
Destroyer Miyuki
（ひゃっほーう！）
(Yahoo!)

そういえば叢雲ちゃんは？
By the way, where's Murakumo-chan?
磯波ちゃんたちと一緒に行くって・・・
She said she was going with Isonami's group...
駆逐艦　初雪
Destroyer Hatsuyuki

べっ別に深雪に気を使ったワケじゃないんだからね！
"I-it's not like I'm taking you (Miyuki) into consideration, okay?!
第十九駆逐隊が人数足りてないから仕方なくなんだから！
It's because the 19th destroyer unit doesn't have enough people, so I had to!"
駆逐艦　叢雲
Destroyer Murakumo

って・・・
Is what she said...
あー　言いそう
Ah...sounds like her.
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

感動
Passion

深雪ちゃーん　あんまり突出したらダメだよー
Miyuki-chan! Don't go out so much!
（ひゃほ～う）
(Yahoo~)

・・・

深雪ちゃん？
Miyuki-chan?
大丈夫？お腹痛い？
Are you alright? Does your stomach hurt?

みんな　こうやって出撃してたんだなぁ・・・
I...always wanted to sortie with everyone like this...

ーーー

船影？
A Ship?

ん・・・なんかいる・・・
Hmm...something's there...
ホントだ
You're right.

先に出た子たちかしら・・・
Perhaps it's some girls who went before us...
お仲間ならちょっと挨拶してくるか！
If they're comrades, then let's greet them!
でも　第六駆逐隊の子たちだったら危ないんじゃない？
But won't it be dangerous if it was the 6th destroyer unit?
うっ・・・
Urg...

私が目視で確認してくるよー
I'll check with my own eyes.
気をつけて・・・って
Be caref-...wait,

深雪ちゃん　それフラグ‼
Miyuki-cyan, that's a flag!

敵出現！
The Enemy has Appeared!

ここを通りたくば我々を倒して征け！
If you want to pass,you must defeat us!
軽巡洋艦　夕張？、鬼怒？、名取？
Light Cruisers Yuubari(?), Kinu(?), Natori(?)

えっ・・・
Huh...

えって　先ば・・・
Well, let's...
うおおおおおおおお！　初海戦だええええええ！
Wooooooooah! Our first naval battleeee!

深雪様が一番乗りだーーーー！
Miyuki-sama's the leader of the chargeeee!
深雪ちゃん楽しそうだしいいか・・・
She's having fun, so we might as well...

ーーー

必殺技？
Special Move?

よっしゃ行くぜっ！単縦陣で突撃だっ！
Here we go! Attack in single layer formation!

くらえっ深雪スペシャル！
Take this, Miyuki Special!

ねぇ　深雪スペシャルって何？必殺技？
Hey, what's a Miyuki Special? A special move?
え？
Huh?

なんかカッコいいし強そうだろ？
Sounds cool and strong, doesn't it?
スペシャル！
Special!
ノリで言ってるだけなんだ・・・
So she's just saying it in the mood...

楽しそう
Enjoying Herself

やられたっ失敗したぜチクショー！
They got me, screwed up, dang!
深雪ちゃん楽しそうだね
Miyuki-chan looks like she's having fun.
だねー
Yeah.

きゃッ！
Kya!
初雪ちゃん！？
Hatsuyuki-chan!?

弾幕張ります！初雪ちゃんは今のうちに回避を！
I'll say down some suppresive fire! Take this time to avoid!

弾幕・・・素敵な響き・・・
Suppresive fire...was a lovely sound...

白雪ちゃんも十分楽しそうだけどね・・・
You're having plenty of fun yourself...

ーーーー

夜戦！
Night Warfare!

っち・・・倒しきれなかったか！
Tch...we didn't defeat them!
どうする？夜戦行く？
What should we do? Go to night warfare?
私は大丈夫です！
I'm fine with that!
夜戦・・・得意だし・・・
We're good at it, after all...

お？夜戦行っちゃう？
Oh? Going to night warfare?
わ・・・私だって・・・夜戦は・・・得意なんですよ・・・！
I...I'm good at....night combat too...!
ちょっ　そんなに夜戦夜戦言うと・・・
Wait, if you keep saying night warfare...

夜戦と聞い・・・
Did somebody say night war-
軽巡洋艦　川内
Light Cruiser Sendai

面倒くさいのが湧くでしょっ！
Something annoying will pop up!
（なか　じんつう）
(Naka  Jintsu)

補給
Resupply

どうする？追撃戦やる？
What will you do? Pursue?
いいです　全力で遠慮します
No thanks. We abstain with all our might.

じゃあ　撤退！
Then it's a retreat!
みんな気をつけてね・・・
Take care, everyone...
そこの岬越えればすぐだからね！
It's just past that cape, after all!

駆逐艦相手の練習も結構疲れるわねー
Practicing with destroyers gets pretty tiring, too.
臨時補給所
Temporary Supply Zone
耐久は減らないけどお腹は空くしね
Our endurance doesn't go down, but we get hungry.

まぁ　なぜかダメージ受けてる艦もいるけど？
Well, for some reason, there's a damaged ship here, though.
川内ちゃん　他のとこでもやったの・・・？
Sendai-chan, did you go somewhere...?

ーーー

帰還
Return

これを持って帰ればいいんだよね？
So we should take this and return?
弾薬と鋼材とバケツか手分けしようぜー
Let's split up the ammo, steel, and buckets!

結構重いね
It's pretty heavy.
速力落ちそう～
My speed might drop~

・・・重い・・・下ろしたい・・・
...Heavy...want to put it down...
えっ？
Huh?

明日から本気出すから・・・
I'll do my best tomorrow, so...
（もう・・・）
(I'll just...)
いや　今日！今！　今　本気出して！？
No, today! Now! Do your best now!

結果報告
Result Report

お疲れ様　全員成功ね
Good work, everyone succeeded.
（おお～！）
(Wow~!)

この調子なら次はより本格的な訓練でも大丈夫そうね
At this rate, you all will do fine with a more genuine training mission next time.
本当ですか！？
Really!?
ええ
Yeah.

さ　鎮守府に戻って補給しましょう
Well then, let's resupply at the base.
みんなで甘い物でも食べましょうか
Let's all have something sweet.
（わーい！）
(Yay!)
うう・・・
Urgh...

今日の訓練結果　全員成功

第16話

今日は空母寮に遊びに来ました
Today, they dropped by the aircraft carrier dormitory.
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
おはようございまーす
Good morning!
いらっしゃい　ごめんなさいね　まだ食事中で
Welcome. Pardon us, we're still in the middle of a meal.
軽空母　鳳翔
Light Aircraft Carrier Houshou

あなたたちも食べる？
Would you like to have some, too?
正規空母　赤城
Regular Aircraft Carrier Akagi
朝ご飯はもう食べたので・・・
We've already eaten breakfast...
そう
I see.

ねぇ　ボーキサイトとってー
Hey, get some bauxite
ご飯おかわりー
More rice, please!
お漬け物もうないの？
Are we out of pickled vegetables?

・・・なんらかの数値がものすごい勢いで減って・・・
...It feels like some numberical count somewhere is dropping like a rock...
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

ーーー

釣り
Fishing

じゃあ　私たち行ってきます
Alright, we'll be off, then.
正規空母　加賀
Regular Aircraft Carrier Kaga
いってらっしゃい
Take care.
出撃ですか？
Are you sortieing?

資源調達だからどちらかというと遠征かしら
We're going to replenish resources, so I guess I could call it an expedition.
赤城
Akagi, here.
って釣りじゃないですか‼
Wait, isn't this fishing!?

資源調達も大事なお仕事なのよ？
Keeping resources stocked is an important job, you know?
完全に晩ご飯のおかず的な資源ですよね！？
These resources seem geared more towards dinner side dishes!

あなたたちも仕事でするでしょ？釣り！
Don't you do some fishing, too?
（トンボ釣り！）
(Dragonfly fishing!)
Note: This is a term used by the Japanese navy to refer to rescue missions where destroyers would assist in extracting downed pilots who have taken emergency landings)
私たちのは食べられない釣りなんで・・・
Our kind of fishing can't be eaten...

製造機
Production Craft

夕飯を何にするか考えないと
I should think of what to make for dinner.
えッ　赤城先輩たちが釣ってくる魚じゃないんですか？
Huh, it's not going to be the fish that Akagi and Kaga will catch?

主食１皿じゃ足りないでしょう？
One dish of the main course won't be enough, you know?
サラっといったー！
Stated so nonchalantly! (There may also be a pun here, but eh.)

何がいいかしらねぇ・・・
I wonder what would work...
（今日も暑いわね・・・）
(It's hot again today...)
（そう？）
(Really?)

そうだ　焼き鳥にしましょうか
Alright, let's go with yakitori.
鳳翔さん！加賀を見てそのメニューはやめてあげて！
Houshou-san! Please don't think up that menu while looking at Kaga!
Note: Midway reference in that yakitori could describe how that went for the carriers there.

ーーーー

焼き鳥
Yakitori

今日の夕飯は焼き鳥ね
We'll be having yakitori tonight.
（わーい）
(Yay!)

種類は何がいいかしらね
What types would you like?
ねぎま！
Spring onions and tuna!
つくね！
Chicken meatloaf with eggs!
砂肝！
Gizzards!
軽空母　龍驤,飛揚,準鷹
Light aircraft carriers Ryuujou, Hiyou, and Junyou

皮！かわ！カワ！
Skin! Skin! Skin!
正規空母　飛龍
Regular Aircraft Carrier Hiryuu

やめなさい　大人げない
Stop, that's immature.
正規空母　蒼龍
Regular Aircraft Carrier Souryuu
うう・・・　第二次攻撃命中しました・・・
Uu...the second strike was a hit...

被弾
Bombed

ふたりは焼き鳥何がいい？
What would you two like for yakitori?
正規空母　瑞鶴、翔鶴
Regular Aircraft Carriers Zuikaku, Shoukaku

私はなんでも大丈夫です
I'm fine with anything.
私は・・・
I'd like...

七面鳥は焼き鳥じゃ出ないから大丈夫よ
Turkey isn't an option for yakitori, so it's alright.

あら　瑞鶴が被弾するなんて珍しいわね
My, it's rare to see you get hit like that.
ボケ殺しは被弾じゃないし！
Getting shut down isn't a bombing! (Might need a more suitable equivalent)


ーーー

巻物甲板
Scroll Deck

お夕飯もだけどお昼のことも考えないと・・・
There's dinner, but I also have to think about lunch...
（ごはんの事ばっかりですね）
(It's always about food, huh.)

天気いいから甲板の虫干ししましょ
The weather's nice, so let's air out my deck.

巻き寿司もいいわねぇ
Roll sushi could work...
だから　人を見てメニュー思いつくのやめてください！
Like we said, stop thinking of menu items while looking at people!
（太巻きじゃありません！）
(This isn't a sushi roll!)

甲板？
Deck?

そういえば　洋風先輩と瑞鳳先輩は飛行甲板をお持ちじゃないんですね
Come to think of it, you two don't seem to use flight decks.
軽空母　洋風、瑞鳳
Light Aircraft Carriers Shouhou, Zuihou

弓で飛ばせるし・・・
We launch them with bows...
一応　こことかにあるんだけどね
We used to have them over here, though.

まぁ　まっすぐで平たいとこがあれば飛ばせるから・・・
Well, any straight flat place could work, really...
（平たい・・・）
(Flat...)
ちょっ・・・私のほう見ないでよ！
Wait...don't look over at me!

（じゃあ・・・）
(Then...!)
誘爆！？
A chain reaction!?

ーーー

どんぶり
Bowl

お昼は海軍ラーメンにしてみました
Lunch will be naval ramen.
（どんぶり）
(Porcelain bowl)
シャハンメン！シャハンメン！
Shrimp! Bamboo! Shiitake! Bean Sprouts! (Note: She's actually saying another name for naval ramen, but I decided to shove in what's in it instead)

なんだか変わった形ですね
It looks kind of different from what I remember.
そのどんぶりウチが作ってん 独特のシルエットでしょ？
I made that bowl. Doesn't it have a unique silhouette?

最初に作ったやつはひっくり返ってしもてな・・・
The first one I made wouldn't stop falling over...
（力作やったのになー）
(Put so much work into it, too)

そこで友鶴事件の反省を元に改良したんやで！
So I used the Tomozuru Incident as a basis and improved it to what it is now!
（カッコええやろ？）
(Isn't it cool?)
普通のどんぶりでいいんじゃ・・・
Seems like a normal bowl could have worked...

ほうれんそう
Report

ねぇ　隼鷹ちゃん　聞いた？
Hey, Junyou-chan. Did you hear?
水上機母艦 千歳
Seaplane Mothership Chitose
聞いた　聞いた
Yeah, I heard.

今日の夕飯は焼き鳥！
Tonight's dinner is yakitori!

焼き鳥っていったらねぇ・・・
When it comes to yakitori...
日本酒でも焼酎でもなんでも会うよねぇ
Sake, distilled spirits, anything fits with it...

発・千代田　宛・加賀先輩　「また飲むべえ空母が飲む算段立ててます」でよろしくね
From: Chiyoda To: Kaga-senpai Send: "The alcoholic aircraft carriers are scheming to drink again"
水上機母艦　千代田
Seaplane Mothership Chiyoda
（りょーかい！）
(Roger!)

海の幸
Seafood

ただいまー
We're back.

お帰りなさい　釣れました？
Welcome back. Did you catch anything.
大漁よー
It was a big haul!

このサザエやウニは？
Are these mollusks and sea urchins?
（どうやって　とったんですか？）
(How did you get these?)
イムヤさんたちに釣った魚と交換してもらったの
We traded with Imuya-san's group with some fish we caught.

海女さん！？
Shell divers!?
潜水艦　伊58、伊168
Submarines I-58, I-168

帰ろう
Let's go Home

そろそろ帰らないと
We should be heading back now.
あら　もうそんな時間なのね
Oh, it's already that late?

じゃあ　気をつけて帰ってね
Then please take care on the way home.
（敷地内だけど）
(Though it's on the same premises)
（またおそぼー）
(Come back anytime!)
今日はありがとうございました
Thank you very much for today.

じゃあ　私たちも夕飯にしましょうか
Well then, let's have dinner.

（やきとりたのしみー！）
(Looking forward to the yakitori!)
（はいはい）
(Please do)
ちょっと舞鶴海軍工廠が懐かしくなりました
Started to miss the Maizuru naval shipyard a bit.

第17話

夕立ちゃんと時雨ちゃんって2回改造できるみたいだよ！
It looks like Yuudachi-chan and Shigure-chan are getting second remodels!
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki

そうなの！？
Really!?
改造？
Remodels?
本当に？
Are you sure?
すごーい
Wow!
駆逐艦　村雨、白露、夕立、時雨
Destroyers Murasame, Shiratsuyu, Yuudachi, Shigure

ところで　どこでその情報手には入れたの？
By the way, how did you find out about this?
（かなり重要な事じゃないのかい？）
(Isn't this pretty important?)

さっきもらった資料に紛れ込んでて・・・
It was mixed in with the documents I received...
Ｐａｐｅｒ：秘
Paper: Secret/Confidential
極秘資料！？
Confidential papers!?
（ずいぶんズカンだね！？）
(It looks pretty cartoony, though!)

ーーー

改造とは
About Remodels

ほんとだ　さらなる改装って書いてあるー
It's true, it says that there are additional remodels.
下のほうは何書いてるのかよくわかんないねー
I don't understand what's written below that...
ねー
Yeah...

よくわかんないけど　こないだの響ちゃんみたいのでしょ？
I don't really get it, but it's like what happened to Hibiki-chan earlier, right?
たぶんそうっぽい？
Probably seems that way?
（よくわかんない）
(I'm not sure)

じゃあ　ふたりはどこの国の子になるの？
So, which countries are you two going to be from now?
いや　改造＝外国の子じゃないから・・・
Wait, a remodel doesn't mean becoming a foreign girl...
（響ちゃんは別！）
(Hibiki-chan's a special case!)

改二とは
About Second Remodels

なんだー　外国の子になるんじゃないんだ
Huh, so you won't become a foreign girl.
そうだよ～
That's right...

ふたりのは五十鈴先輩とかがなる改二ってやつみたい
It seems like you'll have a second remodel form like Isuzu-senpai.
あー　あれかー
Oh, that?
Ｔｅｘｔ：　五十鈴　改二
Text: Isuzu Second Remodel

おっぱい大きくなるやつ！
The breast enhancement kind!
改二ってそういう認識なの！？
Is that what you think second remodels are about!?

ーーー

反対
Resistance

改造はんたーい！
I'm against remodels!

龍驤先輩！？
Ryuujou-senpai!?
軽空母　龍驤（や！）
Light Aircraft Carrier Ryuujou
改二はんたーい！
I'm against second remodels!

胸部装甲の集中強化はんたーい！
I'm against concentrated chest armor strengthening!
みんなそういう認識なんですね・・・
So everyone's equating it to that...

あの・・・改二＝おっぱいというわけではないですから・・・
Excuse me...second revisions do not equal breast changes...
（全体的な強化です）
(They're strengthened in all ways)
なんやーそれならよかったー
Oh, that's fine, then!

大きな問題
Big Problem

私も反対よっ！
I'm against it, too!
暁ちゃんまで！？
Akatsuki-chan too!?

暁も気にしてたんやな・・・
So you're concerned about it too...
（わかるで・・・！）
(I totally understand...!)
そんな小さいなことではありません！
It's not about something that small!
小さ・・・っ！？
Sma-...!?

この極秘資料を見る限りではふたりともずいぶん雰囲気が変わっているわよね
From what I can tell after reading these documents, it seems that you two will have quite a change in presence.
そうだね
Seems that way.

ふたりだけ先に大人っぽくなるなんく許さないんだから！
I won't let you two become more adult-like first!
（私も一人前のレディなりたいのに！）
(Even though I'm the one who wants to become a proper lady!)
ずいぶん小さいことだなぁ・・・
That's a pretty trivial thing, too...

ーーー

ユニット
Unit

時雨ちゃん・・・
Shigure-chan...
駆逐艦　雪風
Destroyer Yukikaze
雪風ちゃん！？
Yukikaze-chan!?

どうしたの？
What's wrong?
時雨ちゃん・・・改二になるんだね・・・
Shigure-chan...you're getting a second remodel, huh...

あっなれるってだけで　今なるわけじゃ・・・
Oh, it's just that I'll be able to get one, it's not like it's going to be right now...

「呉の雪風、佐世保の時雨」改二になるときはユニットでと思ったのに・・・
Even though we'd get second remodels as a unit because of our slogan...
いつの間にユニットになってたんだい！？
Since when did we become a unit!?

スイッチ
Switch

改造ってどうやったらできるのかな
I wonder how you get remodelled...
（やってみたいっぽい）
(It seems like I'd like to try)
んー　そこまではわからないかなぁ
Hmm...I don't know about that...

こないだの響ちゃんみたいにスイッチ？があるんじゃない？
Perhaps there's something like a switch like with Hibiki-chan?
あー
Ah!

赤城スイッチ
Akagi Switch!

あれって　響スイッチとかになるんじゃないんだ？
That didn't change to the Hibiki Switch?
みんな　赤城スイッチって呼んでるよ？
That's what everyone is calling it.

ーーー

あそこ
That Place

時雨ちゃんのスイッチって何っぽい？
What seems to be Shigure-chan's switch?
ボクのスイッチか・・・
My switch...

やっぱりあそこだよねぇ・・・
It's got to be there...
あそこかぁ・・・
That place, huh...
スリガオ・・・
Surigao...

とはいえ　わざわざスイッチは入れるのもなぁ・・・
Nonetheless, they purposefully put in that switch...
つらいよねぇ
Must be tough.

じゃあ　時雨ちゃんと夕立ちゃんが活躍したところを再現すれば！
Then, if Shigure-chan and Yuudachi-chan repeat their achievements...!

悪夢
Nightmare

夕立ちゃんの活躍って言ったらなんだろう？
What's Yuudachi's achievement, then??
やっぱりソロモンの悪夢っぽい？
Seems like the Nightmare of Solomon after all?

悪夢かー
A nightmare, huh...

寝る前に怖い映画見たりとか？
Like when you watch a scary movie before bed?
枕の下に心霊写真入れてみるとか？
Or when you sleep with ghost photography under your pillow?
私　うつ伏せで寝ると怖い夢よくみるー
I get nightmare a lot when I sleep face down...

・・・って
...Wait!
私が見るんじゃないっぽい？
Seems like I'm not the one to see the nightmare?

ーーー

素敵な・・・
A Lovely...

悪夢でもないかー
So it's not a nightmare...
それは私が見せる側っぽい・・・？
Seems like something I'm supposed to show...?

やっぱり赤城先輩みたいに自分で何かしたのじゃないとダメなんじゃない？
It seems like you to have to realize something you've done, like Akagi-senpai.
（まんしんしちゃったとか）
(Like becoming conceited)
そっかー
I see!

じゃ・・・
Then...

私たちが敵艦やるから！
We'll be the enemy ships!
（ステキなパーティしよ！）
(Let's have a lovely little party!)
（友軍役）
(Role of friendly troops)
そこまでして再現したくないっぽい！？
Seems I don't want to repeat things that far!

結局
In the End

結局　どうたったら改二になるかわかんなかったね
Looks like we never understood how second remodels are done.
そうだねぇ
Yeah...

まー　でも私と時雨ちゃんが改二になるのは確実っぽいから・・・
Well, since we both seem guaranteed to have a second remodel...

実戦でもって活躍すればいいっぽい？
Shouldn't it seem that we should just do more in combat, then?

夕立ーー！
Yuudachiii!
主砲に魚雷もあるはずなのにー！
Even though I have these guns and torpedoes! (Murasame's night attack - 主砲も魚雷もあるんだよ！ Sayaka reference)
一番なのにーっ！
Even though I'm the first! (Shiratsuyu...all the time)
うわああ
Waaah!
いつか絶対に改二になるうと誓う白露と村雨でした（＋吹雪も）
Shiratsuyu and Murasame swore to get a second remodel one day (Fubuki, too).

ーーーー


第１９話

鎮守府各寮に「こたつ」が配備されました
All dormitories at the base have had kotatsus deployed to them.

伊勢はまたサボって・・・
Looks like Ise's idling again...

ふむ・・・近代化改修か・・・
I see...a modernization improvement, huh...

なんだ　ちゃんと仕事してるんじゃ・・・

戦意
Fighting Spirit

なんだか　みなさんだらけきっちゃってますか・・・
It looks like everyone's become lazy...
これじゃあ戦意高揚どころか戦意喪失ね・・・
Rather than helping with fighting spirit, it's decreasing it...

ほら　みんな！　出撃よ！
Come on, everyone! Time to sortie!
外寒いからパス～
It's cold out, so I pass~
日向行ってきて
You go, Hyuuga.

撤去します
We're removing them.
即決ですかっ！？
That was a fast decision!

風紀

この設備は撤去します！
We will be removing this equipment!
なっ・・・なんで！？
Wha...why!?
（あとそのサングラスは？！＊顔バレ防止）
(And what's with those sunglasses? *To prevent face recognition)

やめてよぉ！戦意下がっちゃうよ！？
No, stop! My fighting spirit will drop!
（寒い！）
(So cold!)

こたつがあるほうが明らかに下がってるでしょ！
It has been made apparent that it is the kotatsu that drops it!

折衝なぁ～・・・
You barbarians~...
戦意高揚に逆効果なので日向先輩の判断ですべて撤去されました
Since they were counterproductive to raising fighting spirits, Hyuuga-senpai decided to take away all of the futons.

理屈
Reason

そろそろ　寝ましょうか
It's about time to go to sleep.
そうですね
Alright.

妙高姉さん！
Myoukou-neesan!

どうしたの初風ちゃん　怖い夢を見た？
What's wrong, Hatsukaze-chan? Did you have a scary dream?
そうです！とっても怖い夢を見たんです！でも大丈夫！
Yes! A really scary one! But it's alright now!

こうやってくっついていれば安心ですから！　・・・と
"Because I'll be fine if I cling on like this!" ...she said.
何その理屈！！
What's with that reason!?

羨ましい
Envious

それで朝になってもべったりくっついてるってわけ？
And she was still hanging on even after morning came?
なんだ　羨ましいのか？
What, are you jealous?
違っ・・・！
N-no...!

抱きつきたいのなら私でよければ構わないが・・・
If you want a hug, then I wouldn't mind...
（さあ！）
(Come!)
だから違うって！
I said that's not it!

違うのか・・・
Not it, huh...
ああ
Ah.

抱きついてほしいなら羽黒が・・・
If it's hugging, then try Haguro...
がっ・・・がんばります・・・！
I...I'll do my best...!
違ーう！
Wro-ng!

ーーー

居住性
Livability

このままでは妙高姉さんが不憫じゃない？
If this continues, won't it be bad for Myoukou-neesan?
ふむ
Hmm.

少しの間　羽黒に交代してはどうだ？
How about switching with Haguro for a bit?
我が妙高姉妹では一番居住性がよいのだが
In our line of Myoukou sisters, she is the one with the best livability.
えっ・・・？
Huh...?

とにかく私でも那智姉さんでもいいから少し妙高姉さんを解放してあげなさいよ！
Anyhow, it can be with Nachi-neesan or me, but let go of Myoukou-neesan!

飢えた狼さんはちょっと・・・　固そう・・・
The Hungry Wolf seems...kind of hard...

せっ・・・精悍ボディなだけよ！
It...it's just a fearless body!

それじゃあ
In That Case

とにかく　このままってわけにはいかないでしょう？
Well, we can't just leave her like this, can we?
出撃命令があるかもしれませんしね・・・
We never know when there are orders to sortie, after all...

それじゃあ駆逐艦寮に送り届けてこようかしら
I suppose I'll escort her back to the destroyer's dormitory, then.

ダメです！衝突しないようにしてないといけないんです！
No! Not in a way that will end up in a collision!

はいはい曳航～
Alright, towing time~
いや～！
Noo~!
くっついてればぶつからないってことだったのね・・・
Guess there won't be one if they're stuck together...

ああ　あれはぶつからないようにと
Ah, so that they wouldn't collide,

ぶつからない・・・
Wouldn't collide...

ならば私も最上にくっついていたほうがいいな　フフフ
Well then, I guess I should cling on to you too in this case. Fufufu
！！！
重巡洋艦　三隈

でしたら三隈もモガミンにくっついておきますわー！
Mikuma shall cling onto Mogamin too, then!

ユニット組めなくなっちゃう！
We couldn't assemble that unit!
雪風ちゃんどうしてもユニット組みたいだね・・・
Yukikaze-chan really wants to form a unit...

先輩
Senpai

私はもう戻らないわ！
I won't go back!
衝突する夢を見ないようずっと妙高姉さんにくっついているんだから！
I'm clinging onto Myoukou-neesan now so I won't see any dreams where I collide with her!

初風ちゃんダメよ？
Hatsukaze-chan, that's not good, you know?

私室では構わないけれど鎮守府ではちゃんと妙高先輩と呼ばなくてはダメよ？
I don't mind it in private, but around the base, call me Myoukou-senpai, alright?
あ　ご・・・ごめんなさい・・・
Ah, S-...sorry...

そこじゃないです先輩って突っ込みたいけど
I want to interject and say that's not the problem,
それ以上になんかドキドキする・・・！
But this is making me nervous for some reason...!

いつか
Someday

ちゃんと元のお部屋に戻りなさいな
Please go back to your original room.
でも・・・
But...

あなたは一人前の旗艦になるためにみんなと一緒にもっとお勉強しなくちゃいけないでしょう？
You have to keep studying hard with everyone and mature enough so you can become a flagship, right?

一緒に出撃することになったら　その時は側で私のことを守ってちょうだい？
And if we end up sortieing together, could you please be by my side and protect me?
・・・わかりました　・・・妙高先輩・・・
...I understand....Myoukou-senpai...

今晩部屋を変わってやろうか？
Want to switch rooms tonight?
い・・・いらないわよっ！
I-...I don't!

ーーー

お姉さん
Older Sister

同型艦の姉や妹がいるのにどうして妙高姉さんに甘えたがったのかしら？
She had ships in the same class as her, so why did she come to Myoukou-neesan?

あの子は少し遅れてここに来て陽炎ちゃんたちとは隊も違ったから甘えにくいんじゃないかしら
That girl came here a bit later and her unit is different from Kagerou-chan's group, so maybe it was hard to go depend on someone.
駆逐艦の子たちは同型艦でも4人1組なことが多いですしね・・・
Those destroyer girls have a lot of four member teams, after all.

駆逐艦にはそういう事情もあるのね・・・　悪いことしたかしら・・・
So destroyers have circumstances such as that...I wonder if I acted badly then...

あら　偉いわねぇ
Oh, how admirable.
立派なお姉さんじゃないか
Aren't you a wonderful elder sister.
姉さんさすがです・・・
As expected from you, sister.
ちょっ・・・やめ・・・！
Wa-...sto-...!

夢見る駆逐艦
Dreaming Destroyer

どうしてそんなに怖い夢をみるんだろうね
Why did you have those scary dreams?

・・・沈むって
...Sinking...
え？
Huh?

毎晩毎晩「沈む」って単語を聞かされるのよ！
It's because every night, I'm forced to keep hearing the word "sink"!
なんで！？
Why!?
ごうもん？！
Torture?!

雪風が「沈みません！沈みません！」って寝言を毎晩言うからこっちが沈む夢を見るのよ・・・！
Yukikaze keeps saying "I won't sink! I won't sink!" in her sleep every night, so I end up having dreams about sinking...!
（みんなが帰ってきたら絶対部屋変わってもらうんだから）
(When everyone comes back, I'm definitely changing rooms!)
あー・・・
Ah...
（雪風は沈みません！沈む訳にはいきません！）
(Yukikaze won't sink! It's impossible to sink me!)
（うーん　沈・・・沈む・・・妙高姉さん・・・）
Nngh...si...sink...Myoukou-neesan...)

知ってる人もいるみたいだけど
There may be some here who already know,
今回は敵飛行場を攻撃することになりました
but this time around, we're tasked to attack an enemy airfield.

突入する海域はサーモン諸島海域・・・
We will enter through the Salmon Archipelago area...

先輩！吹雪ちゃんの様子が！
Senpai! Fubuki-chan's status is...!
・・・サボ・・・サボ・・・っ！
...Savo...Savo...!
大丈夫！ほら！今回はそっち方面には行かないから！　ね？！
It's okay! Look! We're not going in that direction this time! Okay?!

参加希望
Volunteers

今回は支援艦隊の随伴艦としてみんなの中から2名作戦行動に参加してもらいます
We're able to bring along a support fleet for concurrent operations, so we will need two from your group.

誰か希望者は・・・
Are there any volunteers?

はいっ！
Here!
駆逐艦　綾波
Destroyer Ayanami
駆逐艦　夕立
Destroyer Yuudachi

ちなみに長距離支援攻撃の随伴だから戦闘とかはないからね？
By the way, it's going to be long distance support, so there won't be actual combat, okay?
えー！
Aww!
じゃあ　参加しなくていいっぽー
Seems I don't want to do it, then.

ーーー

一番艦
First Ship

誰か参加したい人いない？　矢面に立たないから安心だよー
Are there any volunteers? You won't bear the full brunt, so it's easy....
戦闘ないっていっても・・・
Even though there's no combat...
実戦はまだちょっと怖いよね・・・
Going out to actual combat is still scary...

こういう時はやっぱり吹雪が行くべきだって！
At these times, it's your job to go!
ええっ？
Wha-?
やっぱほら一番艦が行かないと話しにならないじゃん？
Well, look. If the first ship doesn't go, then what's the point?
えっ・・・ちょっ・・・
Hu-...wai-...

あー自分が一番艦だったらがんばるのになー
Ah, I'd do my best if I were the first ship...
残念残念・・・
What a shame...
こういう時だけ一番艦言うのやめてよーっ
Stop saying "first ship" only at these times!
あー
Ah.

前衛支援と決戦支援で２艦隊出る可能性もあるからね？
There's vanguard and decisive battle support, so two fleets can head out, you know?

出撃！
Sortie!

準備できたー？
Are you ready?
はい！
Yes!

よし！じゃあいきますか
Okay! Let's head out.
あれ？４人だけですか？
Hmm? With just the four of us?

今回は資材をたくさん使うから支援も節約しないとなのよ
We're going to use a lot of resources, so the support has to be conservative, too.
でも・・・
But...

およそ節約という装備には見えないのですが・・・
Your equipment doesn't look very conservative...

第２１話

武蔵先輩が鎮守府に配属されたそうです

武蔵先輩って大和先輩の妹なんだよね？
Musashi-senpai is Yamato-senpai's younger sister, right?
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
うん　大和型の二番艦だね
Yeah, the second ship in their type.

ーーー

恥ずかしがり屋
Shy Person

そういえば大和もここにいると聞いたのだが？
So I've heard that Yamato is here, too?
奴は案外恥ずかしがり屋だから出てこれんのかな？
She's unexpectedly shy, so is that why she hasn't come yet?

武蔵先輩お会いにならないんですか？
Aren't you going to greet her?
もちろん会いたい　・・・のだけど・・・
Of course I will...but...

久しぶりの再会だから武蔵先輩が言って通り恥ずかしがってるのかな・・・
Maybe she's a bit shy reuniting with her again all this time like Musashi-senpai said...

武蔵が沈んだのは身代わり？みたいな感じだったしどんな顔で会えばいいのか・・・
It felt like Musashi acted like a sacrifice when she sank, so I don't know what kind of face I should meet her with...
Note: I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like it refers to where Americans focused their attacks and sank Musashi rather than Yamato in the Battle of the Sibuyan Sea.
違ったー！
It's completely different!

再会

It ended up being far longer than a short doze.

しかし貴様には本当に感謝しているぞ　残念ながら艦首浮力は保持できなかったがな
But I'm very grateful for what you did. It was a shame I couldn't maintain my bow buoyancy back then.
吾輩こそ最後まで共に戦えずすまなかったのじゃ
I myself am sorry for not being to fight together to the end.

やっ・・・大和先輩！あきらめないで！！
Ya...Yamato-senpai! Don't give up!

大和先輩と武蔵先輩は姉妹艦なのにずいぶん雰囲気が違いますね
You're both sister ships, but the type of atmospheres you project are completely different.

ん？　そうか？
Hmm? Really?
全体敵に黒っぽい・・・というか・・・
It's like you're completely dark...and...

ああ　私は夜間迷彩を施していたからな　木甲板を黒く塗るっていたんだ
Oh, I was given night camouflage and my deck was painted black.
なるほど　夜間迷彩ですかー
I see, night camouflage, huh.

いや　だからと言って拭いてもとれんぞ
No, it isn't something you can wipe off.

塗装
Coating

シルバーフレームのメガネがキラキラ光ってお洒落ですね
Your sparkling silver-framed glasses are quite stylish.
出撃前に塗装を塗り直したこともあったからな
It's because I would receive a fresh re-coating before sortieing off.

・・・塗装を？
...Your coating?
きれいに塗りなおしたんだぞ
It was done quite well each time.

塗装・・・　内外舷総塗粧・・・
Coating...a full body redecoration...
駆逐艦　深雪
Destroyer Miyuki

つまり知的アイテムかと思いきゃ頭はいつもお正月・・・
So instead of it being an intellectual item, it's more like you're always in the New Year...
Note: At the end of the year and before critical events, ships would be freshly repainted from head to toe. They would bring in the new year with a final decoration on the mast (the glasses in this case).
撃つぞ
I'll shoot.

主砲
Main Gun

さっ・・・さすが大和型主砲も立派ですね！
A-...as expected from a Yamato-class, your main guns are also wonderful!
そうだろう？
Right?

では挨拶代わりに一発・・・
Then instead of greetings, have a single shot.

もーーっ！　ちゃんブザーならしてくださいー！
Hey! Sound the buzzer first, please!
びっくりしましたー！
What a shock!
すまんすまん
My bad.

艤装
Rigging

武蔵先輩も大和先輩みたいに居住性いいんですか？
Are you as livable as Yamato-senpai?
気になる・・・
I'm interested...

ああ　大和より私のほうが内装が豪華なんだぞ？
Yeah, my interior is actually more extravagant than her's, you know?
では失礼して・・・
Then if you would excuse us...

ほんとだ～武蔵先輩のほうがフカフカだ～
It's true~ She's fluffier than her!
ふかふか・・・ふかふか・・・
Fluffy...fluffy...
しょっ・・・おまえたち・・・っ！？
Wha-...what are you...!?

２０発
Twenty

大和型は装甲もとてもすごいんですよね？　被雷しても平然としてたとか・・・
The Yamato class has amazing armor too, right? Like you could shrug off a torpedo attack...
ああ　自慢の410mm鋼だ
Ah, my renowned 410mm steel armor.

ふふふ　試してみるか？
Fufufu...want to test it?
いえっ　そんな！
No, I couldn't!
いいから　やってみろ
It's alright, give it a shot.

では失礼して・・・
Then please pardon me...
もっといいぞ！
Keep going!

すまん　２０発以上はダメだ・・・
Sorry, more than twenty is too much for me...
（魚雷敵な意味で）
(In a torpedo type of meaning)
轟沈
Instantly Sunk

ああああああすみません！
Aaaaah, I'm sorry!

ーーーーー

お風呂
Bath

今日はお疲れでしょうからドックでゆっくり休んでください
You must be tired, so please go rest at the dock.
では　ひとつ風呂浴びてくるか・・・
Well then, guess it's time to take a bath...

あれ？武蔵は？
Oh? Where's Musashi?
今しがたお風呂に・・・
She was just about to take a bath...

・・・ちゃんと準備した？
...Did you prepare for it?
何の準備ですか？
What kind of preparations do you mean?

わーっ！武蔵先輩のお風呂溢れすぎですーっ！
Wah! Musashi-senpai is overflowing the bath too much!
脱衣所水浸しになってるぞ！
It's even flooding out into the changing room!
畳が！畳がーっ！
The tatami! The tatami mats are...!
武蔵先輩が進水した時一気に水位が上昇し周囲は水浸しになったそうです
Apparently Musashi-senpai raised the water level and flooded her surroundings when she first launched.

大和型専用
Yamato-class Only

す・・・すまない・・・
S...sorry...
いえ・・・こちらも調査不足でした・・・
No...we should have prepared more...

お部屋のほうはしっかり調査して大和型専用ベッドにしてあるんですよ
But we've made the proper preparations for your room, with a bed made especially for the Yamato-class!
（大和先輩と同室になります）
(It's going to be in the same room as Yamato-senpai)
それは楽しみだな
Looking forward to it.
ワジュロの天蓋付きです！
It comes with a trachycarpus palm canopy!
Note: In order to conceal the construction of Musashi, it was completely covered in trachycarpus.

大和・・・

みんなが一生懸命作ってくれたから何も言えなくて・・・！
Everyone worked really hard on it, so I couldn't say anything...!

ここじゃあ油虫100匹か鼠１匹で上陸許可の代わりに間宮のただ券がもらえるんだぜ？
Here, you can get a free Mamiya voucher for every 100 cockroaches or for each rat instead of shore leave, you know?

つまり　油虫上陸ならぬ油虫間宮だな！

最近遠征の手伝いばっかりじゃない？
Haven't we been doing nothing but helping with expeditions recently?
確かに・・・
Seems that way...
今までは運ぶ資材も練習用だったけど今のって本物だよね・・・
We've been doing practice runs with transport materials, but now we're handling the real thing...
本物の遠征任務・・・
Actual expedition missions...

ということはそろそろ艦隊に着任できるのかな！
Maybe this means we're about to start working for the fleet!
そうかも！
Maybe!
噂では・・・
There's a rumor...

新しくできた大型艦建造ドックで資材をいっぱい使うかららしい・・・
That the newly completed large scale construction dock uses a lot of materials...
（見習いの手も借りたい・・・）
(So they're using the apprentices to help out, too...)
だからかー！
So that's why!

ーーー

必要資材
Necessary Materials

大型艦建造ってやっぱり戦艦かな？
Large scale construction means it's for battleships, right?
司令官は装甲空母？を建造したいらしいよ
Apparently, the commander wants to build an armored aircraft carrier.
装甲空母！？カッコイイな！
An armored aircraft carrier? Cool!

空母だとやっぱりボーキサイトをたくさん使うのかな
Since it's an aircraft carrier, it must use a lot of bauxite.
（ボーキ？　鋼鉄？）
(Bauxite? Steel?)
装甲ってついてるくらいだから鋼鉄もじゃな？
But having it armored means the same for steel too, right?
なるほど・・・だから最近・・・
I see...so that's why recently...

空母の先輩たち元気ないんだ・・・
The aircraft carrier upperclassmen aren't feeling too well...
おなかすいた・・・
So hungry...
軽空母　隼鷹
Light Aircraft Carrier Junyou
困ったわねぇ・・・
Oh dear...
軽空母　鳳翔
Light Aircraft Carrier Houshou

あれ？赤城先輩がいない・・・？
Huh? Akagi-senpai isn't there...?
こういうとき一番ぐったりしてそうな赤城先輩が！？
Even though she's the one most likely to be lifeless at this point!?
君ら結構ひどいなー
You guys are pretty mean...

ゲン
Gene

噂の大型艦建造ドックを見に来ました
They went to see the aforementioned large scale construction dock.
うわーおっきい！
Woah, it's huge!

あっちで建造やるみたいだぜ！
Looks like they're building over there!
戦艦　陸奥
Battleship Mutsu
あら見学？
Oh, taking a look around?
はい！
Yeah!

陸奥先輩が監督を？
You're supervising this?
まぁ誰でもいいんだけどゲン担ぎって提督がね
Well, anyone can do it, but the admiral said to have gene carriers, so...
どんなゲンなんです？
What kind of gene?

爆発つながりって
The explosion-related type.
ひどい！
How cruel!

ーーー

建造？
Construction?

建造は順調ですか？
Is the construction going well?
それが全然なのよ　赤城と加賀に手伝ってもらってるんだけど資材が足りませんってエラーが出て・・・
Not at all. Akagi and Kaga helped out, but errors are popping up saying there aren't enough resources...
もしかして・・・
Don't tell me...

Akagiii!

装甲空母大鳳
Armored Aircraft Carrier Taihou

というわけで大鳳先輩が鎮守府にやってきました
With that taken care of, Taihou-senpai joined the base.
（こんにちはー！）
(Hello!)

航空母艦「大鳳」です
I'm the aircraft carrier Taihou.
最近式の密閉型納車と装甲甲板を備えた最新鋭の正規空母です！
I am a state-of-the-art enclosed hangar type aircraft carrier with an armored deck!
特徴は装甲空母ですので中破でも艦載機を飛ばせます！
The special characteristic of armored aircraft carriers is that they can launch planes even at moderate damage!
流星でも烈風でも問題ありません！　あと・・・
Ryuusei and Reppu planes, anything is fine! Also...

あと・・・爆発オチ・・・も・・・いけます・・・っ！
Also...suitable with...explosion jokes, too...!
そういう特徴はいいから！いいからね！？
We don't need that special feature! Okay!?

ーーー

装甲甲板
Armored Deck

これが装甲甲板ですか！カッコイイ！
So this is an armored deck! Cool!
装甲部は20mmDS鋼板上に75mmCNC甲板を装着してあるのよ
The armor consists of a 75 mm CNC deck above 20 mm of DS steel plates.
Note: I'm no warship expert, so correct with better information if you want.
飛行甲板自体は普通の木製甲板なんですね
The flight deck itself is just an ordinary wooden deck, right?
ラテックス張りだって聞いたことある・・・
I've heard that a latex coating was used...
あー・・・
Ah...

木製甲板だったのはなんとなく覚えてるのだけどラテックスはどうだったかあんまり覚えてなくて・・・
I remember the deck being wooden somehow, but I can't seem to recall much about the latex...
（ラテックス？　木？）
(Latex? Wood?)

改装してもらう時にラテックス張ればいいかなーって
So I guess it would be nice if I received a latex coating after remodelling.
（いっきょりょーとく？） (一挙両得)
(Two birds with one stone?)
ふわっとしてるなぁ・・・
You're taking this pretty lightly...

ハリケーン・バウ
Hurricane Bow
私は初めて艦首にハリケーンバウを採用した空母でもあるんです
I also happened to be the first aircraft carrier to use a hurricane bow.
Note: A hurricane bow is sealed up to the flight deck. I'm unsure if she was the actual first (Wikipedia says Hermes was the first in 1924), so she could just mean within the Japanese carriers.
おおー
Wow!
軽巡洋艦　大井、北上
Light Cruisers Ooi, Kitakami

こことか・・・
Like here...

こことかです！
And here!

やっぱり頭のあたりが艦首だったか・・・！
Just as I thought, the bow is around that area of the head...!
（コレでハッキリした！）
(It's clear to me now!)
北上さんまだ悩んでたのね・・・
So you were still wondering about that...
（あぶくま）
(Abukuma)

ーーー

閉鎖式格納庫
Closed Circuit Hangar

甲板の他にも閉鎖式格納庫とか50mm装甲のエレベーターとかさすが装甲空母ですね！
As expected from an armored aircraft carrier, in addition to the deck, you also have a closed circuit hangar and a 50mm armored elevator!

でもこんなにガチガチに固めちゃって大丈夫なんですか？
But isn't it problematic for these things to be enclosed together like this?
衝撃波なんかは昇降機の開口部から逃げるようにしてあるのよ
It's designed so that shock waves can escape from the elevator's aperture area.
なるほどー
I see.

（かいこーぶ・・・）
(Discharge area...)

・・・つまりここから？
...So from here?
ひゃああああ？！
Hyaaaa?!

弱点と原因
Weakness and the Cause

とはいうものの結局ガチガチに固めた格納庫が原因で沈んだのよね・・・
With that said, having these enclosed portions is what caused me to sink in the end...

まあ格納庫だけが原因じゃなくて
Rather, it's wasn't just the hangar,
他にもいろいろな要因が重なった結果なんだけど・・・
It was a result of various other factors piling up...
溶接とかダメコンとか
Like the welding and damage control.

はぁ・・・燃料漏れとガスには気をつけないと・・・はッ？！
Phew...I have to watch out for fuel leaks and gas...
はッ？！
Wait, what!?
もッ漏れるとかガスとか言ってもそういうのじゃないからね！？
B-by leaks and gas, I don't mean that sort of thing, okay!?
（もらさないから！）
(Nothing's going to leak out!)
あ・・・はい・・・
Ah...yeah...
墓穴を掘るタイプなんだなって思いました
She seems to be the type that digs her own grave.

ーーー

メリット・デメリット
Merit/Demerit

これだけ装甲が厚いと修理とか大変そうですね
With all this heavy armoring, repairing it must be a lot of trouble.
そう思うでしょう？
You'd think so, right?
でも入渠時間は他の空母のみんなと同じくらいなのよ？
But I actually have about the same dock repair time as the other aircraft carriers.
（中破でも艦載機飛ばせるぶんお得！）
(With the advantage of launching planes at medium damage!)
それはすごいですね！
That's pretty impressive!

ただし　出撃時の燃費は戦艦並みだけどね
However, my fuel consumption is on par with battleships when I sortie.
（なるほどー）
(I see.)
そこでバランスとれてるんですね
That's where the balancing comes in, huh.

お風呂が同じくらいなのに戦艦並みに食べられるなんていいこと尽くめじゃない・・・！
Having the same bath time with the appetite of a battleship, there's no downside to that...!
赤城　燃費の悪さはデメリット　デメリットだから
Akagi, bad fuel consumption is a demerit.

運
Luck

どうしたの？
What's the matter?
さっきから何やら視線を感じるのですが・・・
For some time, I've felt as though I'm being watched...

あなたが噂の大鳳さんね！
So you're the rumored Taihou!
戦艦　山城、扶桑
Battleship Yamashiro, Fusou
姉様　本当に運が低いです！
It's true, Nee-sama, her luck is low!
陸奥さんより低いなんて素晴らしいわ！
How marvelous, it's even lower than Mutsu's!

せひ　今度私たちのお茶会に参加してね！翔鶴さんもいるの！
Please join in our next tea ceremony! Shoukaku will be there, too!
（なんだか失礼なコトを言われてる気が）
(It feels like something rude was said, though)
は・・・はわわわわ・・・
Ha...hawawawawa...

でっ・・・でも改装したら少しよくなるますし・・・
B-...but after remodelling, it gets a bit better...
（大歓迎！）
(Warm welcome!)
陸奥さん改より低いから大丈夫よ！
It's still lower than Mutsu's remodel, so it's alright!
不幸お茶会の期待の星だそうです
She seems to be the promising new star of the unlucky tea ceremonies.

第27話

すみませーん
Excuse me!
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki

陸軍から派遣されてきに三式潜航輸送艇「まるゆ」と申します
I am Maruyu, a type 3 submergence transport boat dispatched by the army.
こちらが鎮守府でよろしい・・・
Would this place happen to be the naval...
きゃあああああ！
Aaaaaah!

陸の船だからってそんなに毛嫌いしなくても・・・！
Just because I'm an army boat, you don't have to be that prejudiced...!
あっ違うんです！そうじゃなくて彼女たちは潜航てとこに反応しただけです！
No, that's not it! They're just responding to the submergence part!

ーーー

なるや？
Maybe?

おまえら騒いでないでちゃんと掃除しろよー
Less chatter and more cleaning, you guys.
軽巡洋艦　木曾
Light Cruiser Kiso
木曾先輩
Oh, Kiso-senpai.

・・・なんだこいつ
...Who is this?
陸軍から派遣されてきた三式潜航輸送艇「まるゆ」です！
Maruyu, a type 3 submergence transport boat dispatched by the army!
だそうです
...Is what she says.

・・・潜航って潜水艦か？
...By submergence, you mean you're a submarine?
そうです！モグラ輸送ならまかせてください！
That's right! Leave the mole transports to me!
Note: Like rat transports but with submarines.

・・・こんなちせえのがホントに潜れるのか？
...Can something this small really dive?
潜水艦ったらもっとデカくて魚雷バンバン撃ってくんだろ
Aren't submarines supposed to be bigger and brimming with torpedoes?
さあ・・・
Uh...
しつれいなっ！
How rude!

トリム
Trim

ちゃあんと潜れますから見ててください！
I can dive properly, so please watch!

次は！次は沈みますから！
Next one! I'll dive on the next one!
無理すんなよ・・・
Don't overdo it...

ーーー

潜水成功
Diving Success

今度こそ行きます！
I'll do it this time!

どうですか！沈みましたよ！
How was that? I sank! (Cough, cough)
今沈んだっていうか落ちてたよな？沈没してたよな！？
Rather than sinking, didn't you just drop? And floundered around!?

潜航
Submersible

ちゃあんと航行だってできるんです！
I can cruise just fine!
急速潜航ぉ～
Crash drive~
Note: A sudden steep dive from the surface by a submarine


ほら！ちゃあんとできるでしょう？
See! I can do it, right?
泳げないやつが溺れて沈んでるようにしか見えね・・・！
It just looks like someone drowning..!

ーーー

急速潜航
Crash Dive

そんな航行能力でちゃんと輸送できんのかよ・・・
You sure you can transport things with that kind of cruising skill...?
（移動すらあやうそうだぞ）
(Seems likely you'd lose them)
できますよ！
I can!

敵に見つからないよう夜に航行して
I move at night and avoid detection by the enemy,
昼は海底に座ってやりすごすんです！
And I sit and wait on the seafloor during the day!

じゃあ　海底に座れない援用はそうするんだよ・・・
Well, what if there's no place to stay on the ocean floor?
そこは急速潜航です！
Then I do a crash dive.

カンでやってるんで たまに安全深度突破したり　海底に激突したりますけど！
Using my intuition, I occasionally safely break through the depths, though I've crashed into the seafloor, too!
だめだこいつ・・・！
She's hopeless...!

運貨筒
Transport Tube
Note: I'm not sure of a good equivalent, but a 運貨筒 is a underwater transport container towed by submarines. They're cylindrical, but the artist drew Maruyu's as a sphere for some reason. She also never actually used one historically. It could be a buoy for all I know.

わかったわかった　とりあえず輸送任務はできるんだな
Okay, I got it. So you can do transport missions.
はい！できます！
Yes, I can!

たしかに運貨筒も持ってるしな それ使って輸送してたんだな
You're carrying a transport tube, after all. You use that to transport materials, huh.
え？使ったことないですよ？
Huh? I've never used it before.
は？
Wha-?

来る途中に落ちてたんでそれっぽいなーって思って拾ってきたんです！
On my way here, I saw it dropped in the ocean, so I picked it up!
それ落ちてたんじゃなくて置いてたんじゃねぇのか！？
Aren't those left for a reason instead of dropped!?

あッ　まるゆが拾ったんですからあげませんからねっ！
Ah! Maruyu found it, so I'm not giving it to you!
いらん！
Don't want it!
（って言うか返してしろ！）
(Or rather, put it back!)

ーーー

敢闘精神
Fighting Spirit

提督んとこに連れてってやるからついてきな
I'll take you to the admiral, so come with me.

(Doesn't seem like a bad guy)
よろしくお願いしま・・・　痛っ
Thank you for the he-... Ow

おまえ怪我してんじゃねーかどうしたんだよ
Hey, you're hurt! What happened?
いえ・・・ここに来る途中・・・
Well...on the way here...

郵便屋さんに「怪しい奴！」って体当たりされて・・・
The postman called me "someone suspicious!" and body checked me...
マジかよ！
Seriously!?
まるゆのこと知らないからってひどいですよね！
Just because he didn't know about me, how mean, right!?

潜水艦に立ち向かうなんて見上げた敢闘精神だな！カッコイイぜ！
Such admiral fighting spirit to oppose a submarine! Pretty cool!
（ほめてやらねーと！）
(Have to praise him sometime!)
まるゆのことも心配してくださいよ！
Please worry about me, too!

お友達
Friends

しょうがねぇなあ
Guess I don't have a choice.

陸出身だし　ここじゃわかねーことだらけだろうけどよ
You seem decent, and there are a lot of unknown things around here.
俺が教えてやっから遠慮なく聞けよな！
I'll teach you about them, so listen up without reserve!
本当ですか！？
Really!?

おう！カレーの作り方からみっちり教えてやるぜ！
Yeah! Starting from the proper way to make curry!
木曾さんとっても優しいです・・・！
Kiso-san, you're so kind...!

ほらアレだ！もうおまえは鎮守府の仲間だろ！それくらい当然だ！
Well, it's that, you know? You're already one of us! It's only natural!
じゃあ木曾さんは鎮守府で一番最初のお友達ですね！
So you're my first friend here at the base, then!

I asked Shouhou, who has the most celebratory name...
軽空母　祥鳳

めでたいこと（祥）と鳳ですもんね
It's "fortune" and "phoenix", after all.

ただひとつ問題があって・・・
But there's just one problem...
？

運が微妙なんだよねー
Her luck is a bit iffy...
なんだかんだで改装に１年かかっちゃってごめんなさい～！
Sorry for ending up taking a year to remodel~!

鬼は外？
Out with Evil?

それじゃ始めるよー
Well then, let's start!

んー・・・　鬼怒先輩を追い出すのってなんだか気が引けちゃうね

駆逐艦　白雪、深雪
Destroyers Shirayuki, Miyuki

鬼を祭る神社や姓に鬼がつく家では「鬼も内」とか「鬼は内」ってやるらしい・・・
Seems like shrines worshiping demons and families with the oni kanji say things like "demons are also within" and "demons are inside"...

（面塚とか鬼島とか）
(Like Menzuka and Onijima)
へー
Huh.
駆逐艦　初雪

じゃあ　私たちもそうしようよ！

Destroyers Hatsushimo, Wakaba
大豆じゃ拾うの大変だもんね
It's hard to pick up soybeans in that weather.
そういう理由なんだね
So that's the reason.
（なるほどー）
(I see.)

後は撒ければなんでもいいってチョコレートとかお菓子撒いてたな
You can throw anything you want afterwards, so there could be things like chocolate and candy.
そっちのほうが後で食べるの楽しいしねー
Those are more fun to eat, after all.
お菓子！
Sweets!

よそはよそ うちはうちです！
They do what they do, we do what we do!

Peashooter

福はー内！
Luck, in!
鬼もー内！
Demons, too!
・・・

What's the matter?
（何か考え事？）
(Something on your mind?)
どうせ撒くなら・・・
If we're going to throw them anyway...

対空機銃に詰めてみたらどうかなって・・・
I'd like to see them fired from an anti-air machine gun...
そんな危険な豆鉄砲ダメだよ！
We can't have such a dangerous peashooter!

噴進砲に詰めても楽しそうだね！
Doing it with a rocket launcher could be fun, too!

Absolutely not!

Welp, that's enough bean throwing!

数え年
Age
Note: The actual term refers to an old method of determining age, where you are one year older at New Year's and start from 1 at birth.

この豆って自分の年齢より１個多く食べるんだよね
You eat one more of these beans for every year of your age, right?
数え年のぶんだね
Based on how many New Year's have passed for you.

いくつ食べればいいんだ？
How many should we eat?
竣工してから今までの年数ぶん・・・？
Based on how many years passed since construction finished...?
やっぱそれになるかなあ
It's probably going to be like that.

えーと　私の竣工日から考えると・・・
Well, from the day my construction finished...

だいたいこれくらい・・・？
About this much...?
そんなに食べられないから適当でいいよ！
You can't eat that much, so just enough is fine!

節分鰯
Setsubun Sardine

節分なので柊鰯を作ったよー
It's Setsubun, so I made a holly sardine!
鰯？
A sardine?
節分鰯って言って焼いて食べた後に残った頭を
You take the head from a roasted sardine after you've finished eating it,
柊に刺して門口に飾るんだよ
and pierce it with a holly twig.
へー
Huh.

柊の葉の棘と鬼が嫌いな鰯の匂いで追い払う・・・
The demons are repelled by the holly leaf spines and the smell of sardines...

There's also talk that the spines will prick those lured to the sardine's scent, too...

恵方を向いて黙って１本食べると願い事がかなうのよ
If you face this year's lucky direction and eat it quietly, your wish will come true.
大阪のほうの風習なんよー
It's an Osakan tradition!

白雪ちゃんのは普通だよね？
Yours is normal, right?
えっと・・・あの・・・
Well...um...

私も手作りで初めて作ったから
It was my first time making it myself,
あんまり上手くできなかったんだけど・・・
And I probably didn't do it too well...

こっちが機雷でこっちが酸素魚雷
This is a sea mine, and this is an oxygen torpedo.
これはスクリュー部分が難しくて・・・
The propeller part on this was pretty difficult...
ある意味　白雪ちゃんもまともじゃなかった・・・
In a way, Shirayuki-chan also wasn't doing it right...

皮膚呼吸？
Cutaneous Respiration? (Skin Respiration)

バレンタイン・・・チョコレートねぇ・・・
Valentine's...chocolate, huh...
軽巡洋艦　大井
Light Cruiser Ooi

大井先輩もチョコレートあげるんですか？
You're also going to give out chocolates?
ええ　北上さんに・・・
Yes, to Kitakami-san...

ところでちょっと聞きたいんだけど
By the way, I'd like to ask about something...

皮膚呼吸ってどれくらいならできなくても大丈夫なのかしら？
How long can the skin go without having to breathe?
（人体のふしぎ）
(Mysteries of the Human Body)
何を塗るつもりなんですかっ！
What are you planning to cover up!?
Note: I thought she was going to dip something that breathes through the skin into chocolate, but she's holding a book about the human body...

嬉しくて

天龍様のチョコだ！
Here, it's Tenryuu-sama's chocolate!

フフ・・・嬉しくて声も出ねぇか？
Fufu...are you so happy you can't speak?

・・・

なんだよおおおおお嬉しくないのかよおおおおおお
Come ooooooooon, aren't you happyyyyyyyy!?
え？天龍ちゃんの言うとおり嬉しくて声も出なかったのよ？
Huh? It's like you said, I'm so happy, I don't have the words for it.

ばれんたいん・・・？
Valentine's...?
チョコレートをあげたりもらたりする日らしいですよ
Looks like it's the day when chocolate is given and received.

チョコレートは興味がないわねえ・・・
I'm not really interested in chocolate...
実際にはお花とかプレゼントならなんでもいいらしいですけど
Apparently, you can also give flowers and any kind of present, too.
あら
Oh.

それじゃあ次のハロウィンに向けて作りためておいたこれが役に立つわね
In that case, what I stored up for next Halloween should come in handy.
慰問袋！
Comfort bags!

チョコで姉さまのパゴダマストを作りまし・・・
I made a chocolate shaped like your pagoda mast....

ごめんなさい　姉さま・・・！私の作り方が悪くて・・・！
I'm so sorry, Nee-sama...! I must have made a mistake...!
原因はそこじゃない・・・とみんな思ったけど言えませんでした
"That wasn't the original cause"...was what everyone was thinking, but they didn't say it.

なんで？
Why?

日向先輩　伊勢先輩　バレンタインチョコです
Hyuuga-senpai, Ise-senpai, here are Valentine's chocolates.

ないわよ
Don't have any.

なんで！？なんでないの！？
What? Why not!?
駆逐艦のハ子たちからたくさんもらったでしょ！
Didn't you get enough from the destroyers?
それとコレとは違うのおおおおお！
That's different than this!!
うざい！
Shut it!

一緒に
Together

はい
Here,

内密に
Privately

そういえば外国のイベントなのに金剛先輩がいないね
Come to think of it, this is a foreign event, but Kongou-senpai isn't around.
たしかに
You're right.
ＮＯ！
No!

バレンタインのことは内密にしてくだサイっていってじゃないデスか！
Didn't I tell you to keep Valentine's a secret!?
戦艦　金剛
Battleship Kongou
せっかくのイベントだったからつい・・・ごめんなさいね・・・
It was the first event after some time, so I just...I'm sorry...

そんな大切なことだったの？
Was it really that important?
そうデース・・・
Right DESU...
こっそり　ワタシだけ提督にバレンタインチョコを贈るチャンスだったのにデース！
It was my chance to secretly be the only one to give the admiral a Valentine's chocolate DESU!
抜け駆けする気だったんだ・・・
So she was planning to go ahead...

司令官へ
To the Commander

私たちも司令官にチョコ贈ったほうがいいのかな
I wonder if we should give the Commander chocolate, too.
でも　会ったことない人だぜー
But we haven't even met him before.
上司になる人なんだし贈らないのも変じゃない？
He's going to be our boss, so wouldn't it be odd to not give him some?
処世術・・・
That's being social savvy...

贈るにしても自分たちだけってわけにはいかないよな
Even if we were to give some, it shouldn't be just us...
（司令官さんへ）
(To the Commander)
でも　駆逐艦のみんながそれぞれ贈ったらすごい量になっちゃうよ
But if all of the destroyers do it, it would make a mountain.
みんなでひとつも少さい・・・？
Maybe have everyone do a part...?

じゃあ・・・
In that case...

みんな　それぞれ好きな味を選んだそうですよ
Looks like everyone chose their favorite flavors.

第30話

鎮守府にまた新しい仲間が増えました
The base has some new comrades again.
駆逐艦　長波、秋雲、巻雲、夕雲
Destroyers Naganami, Akigumo, Makigumo, Yuugumo

夕雲型一番館夕雲です
I'm Yuugumo, first ship of the Yuugumo class.

二番艦巻雲ですっ
I'm the second ship, Makigumo.
四番艦長波だ
And I'm Naganami, the fourth.
・・・って巻雲見えてないぞ
...Hey Makigumo, they can't see you.

巻雲ですっ！
I-I'm Makigumo!
（本当にもうなんなの！？）
(What's with all this!?)

ーーーー

陽炎型？夕雲型？
Kagerou-class? Yuugumo-class?

秋雲は陽炎型の十九番艦だよー
Akigumo's the nineteenth ship of the Kagerou-class!
陽炎型？
The Kagerou-class?

夕雲型じゃないの？
Not the Yuugumo-class?
制服も同じだし　てっきり夕雲型三番艦なのかと・・・
Your uniforms are the same, so I was sure you'd be the third in the Yuugumo-class...
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
どっちかって言うと夕雲型二番なんだけど～
If I had to say, I'm more like the second Yuugumo-class~
(Note: I'm not quite sure what she's getting at with the second, but her second turret was replaced with a machine gun for some reason...)

名前も似てるし　夕雲たちと組んでたから自分では夕雲型だと思ってたんだけど実は・・・
My name's similar, and I was thought to be in the Yuugumo class since I was with them, but actually...
サイズと艤装は陽炎型と同じなのだ！
My size and rigging was the same as the Kagerou class!
へー
I see.

体は陽炎（型）　心は夕雲（型）って感じ？
So it's like my body is Kagerou (heat haze)(-class) and my heart is Yuugumo (clouds at sunset)(-class)?
Note: Or if you want to ignore the name reference altogether..."So it's like my body is hot but my heart is cool?"
その言い方やめてください
Please don't talk like that.

燃料
Fuel

ここに来るまで結構長旅だったでしょ？
It must have been a long trip to get here, right?
フフ・・・秋雲さんの航続距離なら・・・
Hmph...with my cruising range...
結構長かったのです！大変でした！
It was pretty long! And a lot of trouble!

じゃあ　ウェルカムドリンクならぬウェルカム燃料どうぞー
Well then, have some fuel as a welcome drink.
（燃料缶）
(Fuel can)
ありがとうございます
Thank you.

・・・
・・・口にあわなかった？
...You didn't like it?

コレの代わりに魚雷降ろせって言わないよな？大丈夫だよな？
You're not going make me drop my torpedoes in exchange, right? Right!?
Note: Battle of Tassafaronga. Naganami acted as an escort, but to save weight, the supply drum-carrying destroyers left their reloads of torpedoes at the Shortlands, leaving each ship with eight torpedoes, one for each tube.
（ドラム缶・・・）
(A drum...)
魚雷？
Torpedoes?

制服
Uniform

巻雲ちゃんの制服ちょっと大きくない？
Isn't your uniform a bit too big?
ふぇ？
Huh?

そうなんですよぉ～　袖が長くて・・・
I know~ The sleeves are so long...
じゃあ　私が袖上げしてあげ・・・
In that case, I'll raise them up a...
巻雲さんはこれでいいんです
Makigumo-san is fine like this.

こっちのほうがかわいいんです
She's cuter this way.

オブ
x of x

私たち夕雲型は新鋭駆逐艦！主力オブ主力！
We Yuugumo-class ships are the up-and-coming destroyers! The main force of the main force!
つまり夕雲型の中でも一番かわいい巻雲さんはかわいいオブかわいいなのです！
This means that the cutest one of our class, Makigumo-san, is the cutest of the cute!
な・・・なるほどー
I...I see...

はわわ・・・夕雲姉さん・・・
Hawawa...Yuugumo-neesan...
ウフフ　巻雲さん・・・
Ufufu, Makigumo-san...

夕雲さんって結構・・・
Yuugumo-san is pretty, uh...
変わってるでしょ？夕雲型って個性的だからねー
Weird, right? The Yuugumo class prides itself on uniqueness.
秋雲にだけは言われたくないぞ
You're one to be saying that, Akigumo.

はわっ！飛龍先輩！
Ah! Hiryuu-senpai!

あの時はいやな仕事させちゃってごめんねー
Sorry for making you do that back then.
Note: Makigumo torpedoed her at Midway. And she didn't do a good job at it.
（元気だった？）
(Were you alright?)
いえいえ　巻雲こそ・・・
Oh no, I'm also...

はッ　加賀先輩は・・・！？
Ah! Where's Kaga-senpai...!?
ああ　大丈夫だよ～
Oh, it's alright~

朝から赤城さんに遠征に連れ出してもらったから
Akagi-san took her out on an expedition this morning.
（顔見せはおいおい・・・）
(That's their cameo...)
（今日の夕飯のおかずを釣りに行きましょう）

Oh, what a nice scene. Gonna sketch it!

部屋割り
Room Assignment

今日の掃除当番あんたでしょ！
It's your turn to clean today!

久しぶりの再開だったからぁ～・・・
But we've just met after so long~...
あのふたり仲いいんだね
Those two get along pretty well.
同室だからねぇ
They're roommates, after all.

同室といえばみんなの部屋割りどうしようか
Speaking of which, what are we going to do with your room assignments?
部屋かー
Our rooms, huh...

同じ陽炎型だと黒潮ちゃんがひとり部屋だけど
Kuroshio-chan is currently alone if you want to be with your fellow Kagerou class.
（舞風ちゃんは野分ちゃん待だって）
(Maikaze-chan says she's waiting for Nowaki-chan)
（〆切は明日！）
(The deadline is tomorrow!)
夜中に明かりつけて原稿やるから慣れてないと迷惑かけちゃいそうだしなあ・・・
I work on my manuscript with a light in the middle of the night, so I think it would bother people if they're not used to it...

巻雲は夕雲姉さんか長波と同じ部屋がいいなぁ！
Makigumo would like to room with Yuugumo-neesan or Naganami!

絶対いや！
No Way!

えー　いいじゃん巻雲ちゃあん
Come on, Makigumo-chan.
絶対いや！
No way!

巻雲は秋雲の探照灯慣れてるでしょ？
You're used to being my searchlight, aren't you?
慣れてるから嫌なの！
It's because I'm used to it that I don't want to!

そこまで嫌がらなくても・・・
It doesn't seem that bad...
だって！
That's because...!

やばくなってくると原稿手伝わさせられるんだよ！？
When it gets bad, she makes me help with her manuscript, you know!?
（次コレ！）
(Next one!)
（徹夜で！）
(All night!)
それは嫌だ・・・
Yeah, I wouldn't like that...

ーーー

ルームメイト
Roommate

じゃあ　秋組ちゃんはひとり部屋かなぁ
Alright, so you're going to have a room to herself, then?
そっちのほうが作業しやすいからいいけどー
It would be easier to work that way...
それとも長波ちゃんと一緒の部屋にする？
Or would you look to room with Naganami-chan?
（長波ちゃんが良ければだけど）
(If she's alright with it)
んー
Well...

ひとりはちょっと寂しいけど夜は暗くて寝たいからなあ・・・
It's a little lonely being by myself, but I like it to be dark when I sleep...
（原稿手伝いたくないし）
(And I don't want to help with manuscripts)
！！

んー
Mm...

他の姉妹も来るかもだし　しばらくはひとりでいいや
Other sisters could come, so I'm fine with being along for now.
そっかぁ　伊勢先輩に伝えておくねー
I see, I'll tell that to Ise-senpai.

頑張ります
Keep at it

ん？島風どうした？
Hmm? Shimakaze, what's wrong?
・・・
...

島風は姉妹艦じゃないし・・・
Shimakaze isn't a sister ship...
スピードだけじゃなく朝も早いから迷惑かけちゃうし・・・
And not just in speed, I'm also quick to rise in the morning, so it would be a bother...

それに・・・長波と同じとこで寝るのもアレだし・・・
And...sleeping in the same place as Naganami would be kind of like THAT...
Note: Shimakaze sunk with her in the Battle of Ormoc Bay

島風（ひとりでだって）頑張ります！
Shimakaze (because she's alone) will do her best!
島風！？
Shimakaze!?
そんなにルームメイト欲しかったの！？
You wanted a roommate that much!?

Ufufu, large bridges must be popular.
大きい！カッコいい！
Big! And cool!

……

今日は子供たちの人気がぐぬぬーってやらないの？
You're not going to get all vexed at their popularity today?
戦艦　陸奥
Battleship Mutsu
ふ……
Hmph...

高雄型の人気はこの長門や赤城型に次いでだからな！
It's because the popularity of the Takao-class is after those of the Nagato and Akagi classes!
次いで！
Second to them!
なるほどね・・・
I see...

大きい　小さい
Big, Small

大きな艦橋が自慢なんですかよね？
You're renowned for your large bridges, right?
お城みたいって好評だったのよ
They used to be popular because they were like castles.
だった？
Used to?

艦橋が大きいと被弾しやすいとか
Large bridges could be more easily bombed, among other things.

復原性を上げるのに少し小さくしたのよ～
They increased stability, but it was decided to decrease the size a bit~
小さく！？
A decrease!?

艤装服装以外もサイズ変えられるの！？
You can change the size of things other than your rigging attire!?
艦橋ってどこの部分だろう・・・
Which part is the bridge...?

似てない？
Look Alike?

おーい姉貴たち何してんだ？
Hey sisters, what are you doing?
重巡洋艦　摩耶、鳥海
Heavy Cruisers Maya, Choukai
摩耶ちゃんも鳥海ちゃん
Oh, Maya-chan and Choukai-chan.

…お姉さん？
...Sisters?
ん？
Hmm?

うふふ　似てないけど私たちの姉妹なのよー
Ufufu, they don't resemble us, but they're our sisters!
そうなんですか！？
Really!?

鳥海ちゃんだけなら違和感薄いんだけどねぇ
Well, maybe just Choukai-chan looks less of out place.
あー　なるほど
Ah, I see.
ちょっ・・・姉貴！
Hey...! (Use aneki if you want, saying sister is a bit awkward)
あと納得するな！
And don't agree with them!

大きくなったら
Getting Bigger

高雄先輩たちと摩耶先輩たちは姉妹なのに制服が違うんですね
You're sisters, but your uniforms are different.
あー
Yeah.

上のふたりは改装したけどあたしらはしないまま出撃したからなー
The elder two received remodels, but we sortied out without any.
（あたしは後でしたけど）
(I did get one later, though)
そういう理由だったんですね
So that's why.
そうよー
That's right!

だから麻耶ちゃんたちはセーラー服のままなのよー
That's why those two are in sailor uniforms.
妙高さんたちもセーラー服じゃないでしょう？
Myoukou's group isn't wearing any too, right?
えっ？制服が変わる理由ってそれですか！？
Huh? Is that the reason why the uniforms change!?

じゃあ私たちも大きくなったら戦艦や重巡の先輩たちみたいカッコいい服装に・・・！
Then that means when we get bigger, we'll get cool uniforms like the battleships and heavy cruisers...!
嘘だぞ！　青葉とか古鷹とかもセーラー服だろ！騙されるなよ！
That was a lie! Girls like Aoba and Furutaka have sailor uniforms, too! Don't be tricked!

バランス
Balance

あたしの自慢は大幅に強化された対空戦闘能力だな！
I'm known for my heavily strengthened anti-air capabilities!
おー
Wow!

三番主砲を撤去して連装高角砲２基増設！
My third main battery was removed to make room for two anti-aircraft guns!
さらに対空機銃も大幅に増強！
And my anti-air machine guns were also augmented!

そのかわり・・・
And in exchange...
そのかわり？
In exchange?

大きなバルジも追加したのよねぇ
She got a big bulge as a result.
わああああ！
Waaaah!

改装とは
About Remodels

鳥海先輩はどんな改装をされたんですか？
What kind of remodel did you have?
私は機会がなくて改装はしなかったのよ
I didn't have a chance to, so I never received one.
そうなんですか！？
Really!?
（すみません！）
(I'm sorry!)

だから戦闘能力的には劣るって思われてたんだけどー
That's why she was thought of to be inferior in terms of battle abilities.

姉妹で一番・・・いえ重巡の中でも一番活躍したかもしれないのよね・・・
She may been the one who did the most within us sisters...no, within all heavy cruisers...
Note: Might want verification on this.
改装ってなんだったんだろうな・・・
Then what's the point of remodels...
あわわ
Awawa

メガネ
Glasses

重巡一の戦果ってすごいっすね！
Being number one within the heavy cruisers is amazing!
ありがとう
Thank you.

しかもメガネキャラらしく戦術的に優れた戦闘をやってのけたって話なんだぜ
And like a glasses character, she was known to pull off brilliant battle tactics.
（奇襲作戦！）
(Like surprise attacks!)
でも　作戦自体は失敗したから怒られちゃったけどね・・・
But the operations themselves were failures, so they got mad at me...

っていうかメガネは関係ないでしょ！
...And this has nothing to do with glasses!
なんでだよー　メガネと言えば頭脳派キャラだろー
You sure? Having glasses means being brainy, right?

戦艦　霧島

摩耶と大和

摩耶先輩は大和先輩と仲が良いと聞きましたが…
I've heard that you get along with Yamato-senpai...
仲が良いっていうかよく一緒にいたんだよ
It's more like we were together a lot.

そうそうふたりは並んでると親子みたいだったのよ
That's right, when the two were next to each other, it was like a parent and her child.
ねー
Yeah.
でも　そんなに身長かわりませんよね…
But their heights aren't that different...

戦艦　大和
Battleship Yamato

やっぱり昔は小さくて大きくなって重巡洋艦に・・・！
So she really was small and grew bigger, into a heavy cruiser...!
だからあれは嘘だって！
I already told you that it was a lie!

観艦式で御召艦の供奉艦（バックダンサー）を姉妹で務めたり！
And at the naval review, her accompanying ships (background dancers) were composed of her sisters!
すごい！
Wow!

愛宕先輩はなんと大和先輩を差し置いて第2艦隊旗艦に！
Atago-senpai left Yamato-senpai's group and became the flagship of the second fleet!
おおおお！
Woah!

そのせいで不穏な視線を感じちゃうんだけどねー
But because of that, I started feeling a restless gaze...
金剛と長門と陸奥と大和と武蔵と山城と連合艦隊旗艦じゃないけど愛宕には負けたくないの・・・
Not to Kongou, Nagato, Mutsu, Yamato, Musashi, and the combined fleet flagship, but I don't want to lose to Atago...

もしかして私もあんな感じになっていた可能性があるのかしらって・・・
I've been thinking that there may have been a possibility that I could have become like that...
英国・・・！
Great Britain...!
Note: Takao was given to Great Britain postwar as a compensation ship. However, unlike Hibiki and Yukikaze, they didn't find a use for her and she was scuttled.

Well, I found a nice canal along the way...
（より道しちゃった）
(And stopped by)
Note: I-401 was first planned to be part of an offensive at the Panama Canal.
で　どんな作戦？
So, what kind of operation is it?

ゴーヤの笛が特性でち！
Goya's flute is special!

なんか音が思ってたのとちがうでち…
The sound is different from what I remember...
そんな太い笛で高い音はでないよ…
High pitches can't come from a flute that thick...

右上位だし赤城がそっちどうぞ
The right is for higher ranked one, so please take it.
いいの？
Are you sure?

こっちに座ってるのっておじいさんじゃなかった！？
Wait, don't the old people sit over here!?
向かって右が年配者　左が若者です
The right is for the elderly and the left is for the youth.
Note: Kaga launched in 1921, Akagi launched in 1925.

菱餅

ちょっ　なに食べて…!
Hey! What are you-...!

本物かなって気になって！
I was wondering if it was real!
見ればわかるでしょ
Can't you tell by looking?

いやいや　最近の食品サンプルは本物と見紛うくらいで…
Well, food samples nowadays get mistaken for the real thing a lot...
だからって食べていい理由にはなりません！
That doesn't mean it's okay to eat it!

そういう迷信もあるな
I've heard of that superstition.
戦艦　武蔵

この衣装って大丈夫なのかしら…
I wonder if wearing this will be alright...
どうだろうな…婚礼衣装というわけではないと思うが…
Maybe...I wouldn't call it a wedding dress...

Well, I'm wearing a male outfit, so it's not an issue for me.

Renewed memories of the teru teru bozu
（潜水艦）
(Submarine)
吊るし・・・ッ！！
Being hung...!

って　普通の雛飾りだ…
...Oh, it's just the normal kind.
みんなの成長を祈るんだから変なものは吊らないわよぉ
We're praying for everyone's growth, so I won't hang up anything weird~
それに…
And...

お楽しみはこの後やるお焚き上げだからね～
The fun part is when you burn them afterwards for luck~

仲間

あそこにいるのは…
That person over there is...
潜水艦　伊401
Submarine I-401
雛祭りの時に来た新人ちゃんね
She came during the Girls' Festival.

そういえば挨拶はまだでした
Come to think of it, we haven't been introduced to her yet.
じゃあ　挨拶しに行きましょうか
Then let's greet her, shall we?
はい！
Okay!

…あっでも…
...Ah, but...
大丈夫よー
It's alright~

最初に合ったときはちょっとスイッチ入っちゃたけど今はもう大丈夫だから
It may have triggered a switch when I first met them, but it's alright now.
（ね？）
(Okay?)
言動と背景が合ってませんよ！？
Your words and the background aren't matching!

寄り道
Making a Stop

ごきげんよう！潜特型二番艦伊401です！
Good day! I'm the second ship in the I-400-class, I-401!
しおいって呼んでね！
Just call me Shioi!

しおい先輩だけ着任が遅かったんですね
Your arrival sure took some time.
ちょっと寄り道しててねー
I took a little stop along the way.

寄り道って何をしてたんですか？
What did you do there?
いやーいい運河を見るとつい…
Well, whenever I see a nice canal, I just...
つい！？
You can't help it!?

晴嵐さんたちと一緒にどうやって攻めるか教えるのが楽しくて・・・
It was too fun discussing how to best assault it with the Seirans...
（あの辺とかー）
(Like from over there...)
あっ教えるだけだよ！？
Ah, it was a discussion, alright!?

ーーー

ごあいさつ
Greetings

……

…どうされましたか？
...Is something wrong?
（まさかスイッチが…）
(Did your trigger...)
うーん…
Well...

さっきからずっと気になっていたのだけど…
I've been meaning to say this for a while, but...

どちらの方はどなたかしら…？
Who might that person be...?
わっ！全然気づかなかった！
Woah! I didn't notice her at all!

揚陸艦あきつ丸
Landing Craft Akitsumaru

ふふ・・・迷彩に惑わされたでありますな…
Heh...so you were tricked by my camouflage...
Note: The Akitsumaru had monochrome camoflage
揚陸艦　あきつ丸
Landing Craft Akitsumaru
迷彩優秀すぎませんか！？
Isn't it too effective!?

自分は陸軍の特種船丙型あきつ丸であります！
I am the army's special type Hei-class ship, Akitsumaru!
まるゆさんと同じ陸軍の方でしたか
So you're an army ship, like Maruyu-san.

こちらにはいついらしたの？
When did she get here?
あ　私がここに来たときに…
Ah, when I arrived here...

砂浜に乗り上がってたんだよ
She was washed up on the shore.
（びっくりしたよー）
(It really surprised me)
（大丈夫！？）
(Are you alright!?)
揚陸！？
A shore landing!?

ーーー

敬礼
Salute

揚陸艦らしく上陸しようとしたらちょっと失敗したであります
I tried to land ashore like a landing craft should, but I made a little mistake.
（てへへであります）
(Tehehe)
あきつ丸さーん
Akitsumaru-san!

まるゆではありませんか
Oh, if it isn't Maruyu.
潜水艦　まるゆ
Submarine Maruyu

あきつ丸さん！着任お疲れ様ですっ！
Akitsumaru-san! Thank you for joining us!

まるゆは・・・すっかり海軍の子になってしまったのでありますな…
You've...completely become a navy girl now...
（陸軍が誇る潜水艦だと思っていたのに）
(Here I thought you'd be the proud submarine of the army)
あっこれは大和さんがかっこよかったので真似っこしてたらつい…！
Ah, it was cool when Yamato-san did it, so I just...!

潜水艦？
Submarine?

陸軍魂を思い出すであります！
Remember your army spirit!
すみません～
Sorry~
まるゆさんって…
So Maruyu-san is...

潜水艦だったのね…
A submarine, right...?
そうですよ！？
Yes, of course!

どういうことですか？
What do you mean?
いやね　木曽ちゃんと一緒にいるからてっきり…
Well, since she was with Kiso-chan, I was sure...

木曽ちゃんがまたどこかで小舟でも拾ってきたのかと思ってたわ
That she had picked up another little boat from somewhere again.
（天龍ちゃんも捨て猫とか子犬とか拾ってくるから…）
(Tenryuu-chan picks up stray cats and puppies, too...)
THE　不良！
The "delinquents"!

ーーー

航空艤装
Aviation Rigging

あきつ丸さんは空母なんですか？
Are you an aircraft carrier?
正確には航空母型であります！
To be exact, I am an aviation carrier type!

ちなみに着艦できないので早々に着陸場所を確保するかどこかに不時着するであります！
By the way, my planes can't return after launching, so they can make emergency landings anywhere they can!
（優秀な上陸部隊がいるので問題ないであります！）
(There are excellent landing units out there, so there's no problem!)
えっ
What.

あっでも改になれば着艦も可能でありますよ！
Ah, but if I get a revision, they'll be able to return!
（あきつ丸改）
(Akitsumaru Rev.)

今まで海上輸送用搭載スペースにしか使ったことはないでありますが…
Thought it hasn't been used for anything but marine transport loading space so far...
輸送専門パターン…！
Transport specialized...!
Note: Akitsumaru never did any aircraft support despite having a flight deck.

ダメ
Forbidden

じゃああきつ丸さんは空母寮でしょうか？特種船寮はありませんし…
Then will Akitsumaru-san be staying at the carrier dormitory? We don't have one for special boats...
ん～…そうねぇ…
Hmm...well...
航空戦艦や航空巡洋艦みたいな感じだと思うんだけど…
I think she's like the aviation battleships and cruisers...
（飛行甲板持ってるし）
(She has a flight deck)
なるほどー
I see.

じゃあ　伊勢先輩や最上先輩…
So like Ise-senpai and Mogami-senpai...
（イメージ図）
(Mental Image)
あきつ丸さんに最上さんはダメです～
Don't let Mogami-san near her~
最上…！
Mogami...!
最上先輩の流れ弾で何かあったらしいです
Looks like something happened with Mogami-senpai's stray bullets before.
Note: Akitsumaru's predecessor, Shinshumaru, was directly hit by a stray torpedo hit from Mogami and sunk to the bottom. It was later recovered and returned to service.

排水量
Ship Displacement

しおいさんは大きいですね！
Shioi-san, you're pretty big!
潜特型は特に大きいからねー
Yeah, the Sentoku-class is particularly large.

排水量3530トンなんだよ！
My displacement is 3530 tons!

まさか潜水艦に負けるなんて…
I never thought I would lose to a submarine...
水中だと6560トンだよ！
Underwater it's 6560 tons!
水中…！
Underwater...!

私も水中に潜れば…
If I dived underwater...
竜田先輩は潜ったらだめですよ！
You should never do that!

この後
Afterwards

そろそろ失礼しますね～
It's about time for me to go~
じゃあ　私も…
Then, me too...

あきつ丸さんはまるゆがご案内します！
I'll show Akitsumaru-san around!
私も一緒にいくよー
I'll go, too!

竜田先輩は吊るし雛のお焚き上げ…でしたっけ
So you were going to burn the dolls in a bonfire...right?
ええ
That's right.

ガンガンお焚き上げるわよ～
I'm going to go all out with it~
手に持ってるのつるし雛じゃなくなってますよ！
You're not holding the dolls anymore!

No need to lie about that!

都市伝説？
Urban Legend?

ドックといえバ…深夜に入渠とすると…
Speaking of the dock...when you try to enter it late at night...
誰も入ってないのに入渠中になってて入れないことがあるそうデース…
There have been cases where you can't enter, even when it looks empty...
えッ？！
What!?

あっ！それも嘘ですね！？
Oh! That's a lie too, right!?
やめてくさだいよ～
Please don't do that~

Maybe one that can end up as a joke?

Things like newspapers apparently write joke articles for the day.

Huh.

軽巡北上が提督とケッコンカッコカリ！か？とかは？

鎮守府に新しい仲間が増えました
More comrades joined the base.
睦月型駆逐艦三番艦「弥生」…です…
I'm Yayoi...the third ship of the Mutsuki class...
同じく四番艦「卯月」だぴょん！うーちゃんって呼ばれてまっす！
Likewise, I'm the fourth, Uzuki-pyon! They call me Uu-chan!

ぴょん！？
Pyon!?
駆逐艦　白雪、吹雪
Destroyers Shirayuki, Fubuki
駆逐艦　初雪、深雪
Destroyers Hatsuyuki, Miyuki

卯月でウサギ的なやつかな…
Is it because her name is similar to "rabbit"...?
でも動物の名前とか鳴き声じゃなくて擬音なんだね…
But "pyon" isn't really the sound that they make...
そもそもウサギって鳴くのか？
Do rabbits even make sounds?
声帯が無いから鳴かないけど鼻をぶうぶう鳴らすらしい…
They don't have vocal chords, but apparently they make sounds from their noses...

ぷっぷくぷー！
Puppukupuu!

ーーー

弥生と仲良し
Getting Along with Yayoi

弥生ちゃんて仲良しな子とかいるの？
Do you have anyone you get along with?
…えーっと…特には…
...Um...not really...

駆逐艦　望月
Destroyer Mochizuki

おなかすいた？ご飯食べる？羊羹がいい？燃料かラムネ飲む？
Are you hungry? Did you eat? Is sweet bean jelly alright? Want to drink some fuel or ramune?

望月はごはんくれるから好き…
Mochizuki gives me food, so I like her...
Note: After being sunk, the survivors of the Yayoi drifted to Normanby Island, where they slowly started to starve. Mochizuki and Isonami came to their aid.

望月と初雪
Mochizuki and Hatsuyuki

まったく弥生は手間がかかってマジめんどくせーなー
Sheesh, taking time out to deal with Yayoi is such a bother.
まじ…
Yeah...

あー夜戦になったら本気出すって
Ah, but I'll get serious when it's time for night battle.
（マジでマジで）
(I mean it)
本気出す…
Get serious...

動くとしんどいからぼーっとしてよー
But moving around gets tiring, so I space out...
ひきこもり…
A shut-in...

ふたりの間になにか通じるものがあったみたいです
It seems that something resonated between the two.

ーーー

怒ってないよ
Not Angry

……

え？弥生怒ってないよ？
Huh? I'm not angry.
そうなんだ　よかったー
Oh, that's good.
…ごめん　表情硬くて…
...Sorry, I'm not good with expressions...

じゃあ　怒ったらどうなるんだ？
Well, what's it like when you're angry?
えっと…
Umm...

第三十駆逐隊
Destroyer Division 30

第三十駆逐隊再結成ー！
Destroyer Division 30 has been reformed!
駆逐艦　睦月
Destroyer Mutsuki
（イェーイ）
(Yay)
駆逐艦　如月
Destroyer Kisaragi

大丈夫だよ！任務で組む第三十駆逐隊は如月ちゃんだし！
It's okay! You were within it for missions!
Note: Kisaragi sank early in Division 30.

そうなの？よかったぁ～
Really? That's good~
組み合わせると発動するスイッチもあるんだなと思いました
Guess there are switches that activate with combinations, too.

ーーー

名前
Name

睦月の艦隊ー！番号！19！
Mutsuki's fleet! Destroyer No. 19!
21！
23…
25だぴょん！
25-pyon!
え？33？
Huh? 33?

番号って一番艦二番艦じゃないの？暗号名？
Why numbers and not class order? Are they code names?
うーちゃんは元々「第二十五号駆逐艦」って名前だったぴょん！
I was originally called Destroyer No. 25-pyon!
えーっ！
Really!?

ていうか私たちも元々は番号名だったんだよ
Actually, we had numerical names too, originally.
私が36号で吹雪ちゃんが35号ね
I was No. 36 and you were No. 35.

建造中だけで竣工時には今の名前になってたけどね…
Just during construction, though. We got our current names after completion...
そうなんだ…
I see.

つまり私たちにも実は真の名前があったんだね
So we also had true names, right?
うーんちょっと違う気がするけど…
...Well, it's kind of different...
（真の名前好きだよね…）
(You sure like true names...)

幻惑迷彩
Dazzle Camouflage

ふたりは迷彩仕様だったこともあるんだよね？
You two had some camouflage work done, right?
お試しだけだけどねー
Just as a test.
ダズル迷彩って言うのよー
It was called dazzle camouflage

ダズル迷彩？
Dazzle camouflage?

幾何学模様の縞々の迷彩だよね
It's a camouflage consisting of various geometric stripes.
…幻惑迷彩とも呼ばれる…
...It was also called razzle dazzle...

誘惑迷彩？
A seduction camouflage?

違うよー!
No!

迷彩じゃないけど似たような模様のなら…
It's not a camouflage, but there's something similar to that...
（中に…）
(Inside...)
うわー誘惑迷彩の誘惑攻撃だー！
Woah, a seduction attack!
にゃー！？
Nya!?

ーーー

睦月型
Mutsuki-class

睦月をもっともっと褒めるがよいぞぉ！褒めて伸びるタイプにゃしぃ！
You can praise me even more! I run on praise!
ぷっぷくぷぅ～！
Puppukupuu~!

魚雷って太いわよねぇ～
Torpedoes sure are thick~
えっと…
Um...
あ～　しんど…
Eh...what a drag...
（寝よ…）
(Gonna sleep...)

ボクを呼んだかい？
Did ya call me?
やっちゃってい～い？
Want me to care care of them~?
作戦終了…
Operation complete...
くっそぉ…やるな！
Shoot...not bad!
駆逐艦　長月、菊月、三日月、文月、皐月
Destroyers Nagatsuki, Kikuzuki, Mikazuki, Fumizuki, Satsuki

睦月型ってなんか極端というか振れ幅大きいよね…
The Mutsuki class has a pretty big range of instability...

旗艦夕張先輩
Flagship Yuubari-senpai

弥生！卯月！久しぶり！
Yayoi! Uzuki! It's been a while!
軽巡洋艦　夕張
Light Cruiser Yuubari
夕張先輩久しぶりだぴょん！
Yuubari-senpai, long time no see-pyon!
お久しぶり…です
It's been...a while.

夕張先輩は昨日も旗艦としてサーモン海域に出撃したんだよ！
Yuubari-senpai went to the Salmon Area yesterday as the flagship!
すごいだぴょん！さすがはうーちゃんたちの旗艦だぴょん！
Wow-pyon! As expected of our flagship-pyon!

夕張先輩といえば火力自慢…
Yuubari-senpai's known for her firepower...
昨日も砲雷撃戦で大活躍ぴょん？
Did you show off your gun and torpedo skills again yesterday?
そりゃそうだよぉ～！
Of course she did~
え…ええ…
Y-...yeah...

そうね…
I guess...
Note: Yuubari led them as part of the Sixth Sea Mine Division. The four drum cans are for everyone' favorite, 5-4.
 Also, continuity!

ごあいさつ
Greetings

うーちゃん飛龍先輩たちにも会いたいなー
Uu-chan wants to meet Hiryuu and the others, too!
今日はもう遅いから明日挨拶に行こうよ
It's late today, so let's go greet her tomorrow.

加古先輩や龍田先輩もいるぴょん？
Are Kako-senpai and Tatsuta-senpai here, too?
いるよー
Yeah.

時雨ちゃんや木曽先輩　利根先輩　隼鷹先輩も！
Shigure-chan, Kiso-senpai, Tone-senpai, and Junyou-senpai, too!
隼鷹先輩…
Junyou-senpai...

それはご挨拶にいかないといけないぴょん…
I just have to greet her-pyon...
Note: Uzuki's rear mast was broken after a collision with Junyou on the way back from Leyte.
なんか嫌な予感が…
What's with this bad feeling...
？
軽空母　飛鷹、隼鷹
Light Carriers Hiyou, Junyou

探し物
Looking for Something

そういえば今まで何してたの？
Come to think of it, what have you been doing up until now?
ん…ちょっと探し物…
Mm...was looking for something...

探し物は見つかったの？
Did you find what you were looking for?
一応見つかった…かな…でも…
Thought I did...once...but...

新しいのもらったみたいだから……大丈夫…
It looks like there are new ones now...so it's alright...
Note: See the circled area. You can see in Yayoi's card art that she has a tattered ribbon (most likely Kisaragi's) that she has kept as a memento.

よくわかんないけど大丈夫ならいっか！
I don't really get it, but at least it worked out for you!
あらあら大きいなお返事
Oh my, what an answer.
おーい晩飯だよー
Hey, time for dinner!

第37話

いいねぇ～春だねぇ～
Ah, spring. How lovely~
軽巡洋艦　北上
Light Cruiser Kitakami

うわ　駆逐艦がいっぱいいる…
Ugh, lots of destroyers...

気づかれた！
They saw me!

こっち来た！
And they're coming over!

駆逐艦　深雪
Destroyer Miyuki
（北上センパイ何やってんスかー？）
(What are you doing?)
駆逐艦　初雪
Destroyer Hatsuyuki
（単独行動とはめずらしい…）
(You taking independent action is rare...)
駆逐艦うざああああああああ！
So annoyiiiing!

ーーー

よその
Outsider

てゆーか集まって何やってんの
Actually, what are you all doing gathering up like this?
なんとなく集まってるだけというか…
We just ended up like this...
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
吹雪型の会？みたいな？
Something like a Fubuki class meeting?

いつも一緒にいるのになんでまた…
Even though we're always together, I wonder why...
私たちは基本4人で1隊ですけど所属する隊が変わったりするので
We started out with us four in a fleet, but we went through some changes.
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki
吹雪型駆逐艦交流会みたいな感じっすよ
It feels like a Fubuki class destroyer social.

なるほどねー　そういうやそうだったわ
I see, stuff like that happens.
確かに普段一緒にいない子もいるね
Come to think of it, there's an unusal face with you here.
駆逐艦　磯波
Destroyer Isonami

で　なんでよその子がひとりまじってんの？
So, why is that one outsider with you?
よその子じゃありません！
I'm not an outsider!
駆逐艦　叢雲
Destroyer Murakumo

第12駆逐隊
Destroyer Division 12

私も吹雪型です！失礼な！
I'm also part of the Fubuki class! How rude!
（吹雪型5番艦！）
(The fifth ship!)
えー制服も艤装もひとりだけ全然違うじゃん
Huh, but your outfit and rigging are also completely different.

北上先輩だって姉妹艦の球磨先輩たちと制服も艤装も違うじゃないですか！
I could say the same thing about you compared to your sister ships!
そう言われると確かに…
Now that you mention it...

吹雪達は第11駆逐隊で私は第12駆逐隊だったんです！
Fubuki's group was Destroyer Division 11 and I was a part of Destroyer Division 12!
あー隊が違うのね　なるほど
Oh, and your unit was different, too. I see.

それってやっぱりよその子なんじゃ…
But wouldn't that still make you an outsider...?
ムキー！
Urgh!

ーーー

第11駆逐隊
Destroyer Division 11

叢雲は第11駆逐隊でもあったんすよ
Murakumo was a part of Destroyer Division 11 too, you know.
そうなんだ
Huh.

…って　変なこと聞いちゃった？隊が変わるってアレだよね
...Oh, did I ask something weird? Changing fleets probably meant that something like THAT happened.
別になんてことないっす…
It's nothing, really...

あれ？おかしいな…
Huh? That's weird...
え…あ…ごめん！ほんとごめん！
Huh...ah, sorry! I'm so sorry!

なーんちゃって
Just kidding!
ムキー！
Urgh!

ナイーブ
Sensitive

てか　ナイーブな話なのにあんま気にしてないのな…
Actually, this is a pretty sensitive topic, but you seem pretty okay with it...
そーっすねー
I guess.

いろいろあった気はしますけど
It feels like a lot of things happened,
今こうやってみんなと戦えるだけで嬉しいし
but I'm happy to fight with everyone here,

むしろ叢雲には迷惑かけちゃってるんで
and it feels more like I burdened Murakumo with it.
べ…別に気にしてないわよ
I-...I didn't really mind it.

駆逐艦のくせに生意気なっ…！
What a thing to say, coming from a little destroyer...!
？
Note: Miyuki collided with Inazuma in 1934 and was the only modern Japanese destroyer that did not make it into World War II.

ーーー

磯波
Isonami

で　こっちの子は？
And, who is this girl?
あ…あの…磯波と申します…
U-...um...I'm Isonami...

いつもは綾波ちゃんと敷波ちゃんと第19駆逐隊を組んでます…
I was always with Ayanami-chan and Shikinami-chan in Destroyer Division 19...
でも　たまに吹雪ちゃんと第20駆逐隊も組んだりします…
But sometimes Fubuki-chan would join us in Destroyer Division 20...
ほうほう
I see, I see.

あ…人数が足りないぶんは叢雲ちゃんに入ってもらってて…
Ah...and Murakumo would join when we didn't have enough...
ふむ…
Hmm...

つまり完全によその…
So she's completely an outsid...
ムキー！
Argh!

I型
Type I

その綾波ちゃんたちも吹雪型なの？
So Ayanami's group is also Fubuki-class?
（今いないけど）
(Though they're not here)
えーと　大きく分けると同じ特型なんですけど…
Umm, on broad terms, they're in the same class...

10番艦の浦波ちゃんまでI型で綾波ちゃんたちはII型なんです
Everyone up to the tenth ship, Uranami, is Type I, and Ayanami's group is Type II.
長良と由良たちみたいなもんか
So something like with Nagara and Yura.

あ…でも浦波ちゃんはちょっと変わってて
Oh...but Uranami-chan was a bit unusual.
代理　敷波
Represented by Shikinami

ベースはII型だけど装備がI型なので改II型とも呼ばれてて…
Her base was Type II but her equipment was those of Type I, so she was also called a Type II revision...

どうして私だけII型に混じって…
Why was I the only one mixed in with Type II...
磯波ちゃんとも第20駆逐隊組んだじゃない！
You were in Destroyer Division 20, too!

ーーー

がんばる
Keep Going

…やっぱりさみしい？
...So you do feel loney?
んーそりゃまあ他の子たちもいればうれしいけど
Mm...well, it would have been nice if there some other girls were there with me.

アンタたちもいるし私のことを知ってる子が誰もいないわけじゃないから
I have all of you here, and it's not like nobody knows me.
そか
I see.

私に何かあったら来てくれるでしょ？
You'll come if anything happens to me, right?
ん…がんばる…
Yeah...I'll do my best...

その時のために魚雷磨いていく…
I'll polish my torpedoes for that moment...
頑張るのそっち！？
You're doing your best for that!?
（救助のほうがんばりなさいよ！）
(Save it for helping me!)
Note: Murakumo was critically damaged when attempting to aid Furutaka. Her crew was taken up by Hatsuyuki, who then sank her with torpedoes

水雷戦隊
Sea Mine Squadron

で　北上先輩は何してたんすか？
So, what were you doing?
え…散歩？
Uh...taking a walk?

…お暇なんですね
...You sure have time to spare.
休みなんだからぶらぶらしてたっていいじゃん！
What, is it wrong to wander around on breaks!?

この後　間宮さんのところでお茶するんですが一緒にいかがですか？
We're going have some tea at Mamiya's after this. Do you want to come?
えーどうしようかな…
Uh...let's see...
行きましょうよー！
Let's go!

北上水雷戦隊出撃ー！
Kitakami sea mine squadron, heading out!
なんかちょっと照れるんだけどー
This is kind of embarrassing...

ーーー

レア
Rare

…なにやってんの
...What are you doing?
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise

何って記念撮影ですよ！
What do you mean, I'm taking commemorative photos!
軽巡洋艦　大井
Light Cruiser Ooi
記念？
Commemorative?

いつもは嫌がる駆逐艦の子たちと戯れるレアな北上さんを記録に残してるんです！
I'm saving this rare memory of Kitakami-san playing around with the destroyers, even though she's usually dislikes them!
（レアですよ！レア上さん！）
(It's rare! Rarekami-san!)
…ごめんよくわかんない
...Sorry, I don't really get it.

戯れ
Playful

日向先輩の珍しい姿を想像してみてください！絶対楽しいですから！
Try imagining Hyuuga-senpai acting differently! You'll definitely enjoy it!

うーん
Hmm...
後輩と戯れてる珍しい日向ねえ…
An unusual Hyuuga frolicking around with juniors...

ウフフ　こっちよモガミン
Ufufu, I'm over here, Mogamin!
戦艦　日向
Battleship Hyuuga
待ってくださーい
Wait for me~
私もいますわー
I'm here, too!
重巡洋艦　三熊、最上
Heavy Cruisers Mikuma, Mogami

…がんばれ…！がんばれくまりんこ…
...Do your best...! Keep at it, Kumarinko!
（阻止して…！）
(Stop them...!)
あんまり楽しくなかったみたいです
Looks like it wasn't that fun.

第38話

鎮守府に阿賀野型の先輩方が配属されました
The Agano class has joined the base.
こんにちはーっ！最新鋭軽巡の阿賀野でーすっ！
Hello! I'm the cutting-edge light cruiser, Agano!!
二番艦能代！よろしくどうぞ！
The second ship, Noshiro! Nice to meet you!
三番艦矢矧よ
I'm the third, Yahagi.

というわけで来る作戦に備えて新しい仲間が増えました
With that said, they're here in preparation for the upcoming operation.
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
よろしくねー！
Nice to meet you!

最新鋭だから配属も遅くなったんですね
So you arrived later because you're cutting-edge, huh.
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
違っ…！
Uh, well...!

し…主役は遅れてやってくるっていうでしょ…？
T-...the heroes come at just the right moment, you know...?
（今度は絶対本領発揮しちゃうから！）
(I'll definitely show off my best this time!)
Note: Agano sank without an opportunity to do much.
（活躍した）
(These two did.)

阿賀野姉ポーズ同じだよ
(Agano-nee, your pose is the same)

ーーー

排水量
Displacement

次世代の水雷戦隊旗艦として設計　建造された阿賀野型はとってもとっても高性能！
Planned as next generation sea mine fleet flagships, the Agano class is really, really efficient!

見てよ！この洗練された体！
Look, at this polished body!
排水量も凄いんだから！
Our displacement is amazing, too!

軽巡洋艦　夕張
Light Cruiser Yuubari

排水量＝胸部の可能性…！
Displacement = Breasts...!
（ちょ！）
(Hey!)

関係あるない
(Un)related

駆逐艦サイズだとやっぱり難しいのかな…
Guess it's difficult for destroyers given the size...
でも天龍先輩たちは夕張先輩と同じくらいでもバイバインだぜ？
But Tenryuu-senpai is about the same displacement as Yuubari-senpai but is pretty stacked, you know?
じゃあ　関係ない…？
So...it doesn't matter?
駆逐艦　初雪、深雪、白雪
Destroyer Hatsuyuki, Miyuki, Shirayuki

軽空母　龍驤
Light Carrier Ryuujou

やっぱ違うな！
Guess not!

気のせい…
Just our imaginations...

なんなん！？
What, why!?
（ヒドイ！）
(How mean!)

花の二水戦旗艦だけあって再会の喜びもひとしおですね
Being able to meet the flagships of the Second Squadron Flowers again must feel great.

阿賀野型はね　別名能代型って言って…
The Agano class has also been called the Noshiro class...

阿賀野先輩！お久しぶりですーっ！

Yay, the tenth division!

花の二水戦かぁー
The Second Squadron Flowers, huh...
私たちも二水戦だったけど…
Even though we were also the second squadron...
花じゃなかった…？
But not flowers...?

みんなそんなに落ち込まないで
Don't get down from that, everyone!

前は前！今は今！
The past is past! The present is now!
これからたくさん活躍して花になればいいんだよ！
We just have to work hard enough to become flowers now!

（第11駆逐隊ファイトー！）
(Go, Destroyer Division 11!)
青春だねぇ
Such youth...

ーーー

大和と矢矧
Yamato and Yahagi

大和先輩と矢矧先輩は雰囲気が似ていますね
You two give off a similar vibe.
矢矧は私と間違えられたこともあるからねー
Well, Yahagi's been mistaken for me before.
大和さーん！
Yamato-saan!

潜水艦　まるゆ
Submarine Maruyu
大和さ…
Yamato-s...

・・・って違うひとですーーーーっ！？
...It's someone else!?

大和に突撃するとは…敵潜水艦ね！
Attacking Yamato...you must be an enemy submarine!
違います！まるゆさんは陸軍の潜水艦で…！
No! Maruyu-san is an army submarine...!

踏ん張り
Bracing

まるゆさんが間違えちゃうくらい似てらっしゃるんですね
Similar enough for Maruyu-san, huh.
（すみません～）
(Sorry~)
そうだ！
Ah, I know!
（私もごめんね）
(I'm sorry, too)

私の艤装つけてみたらもっと似てるんじゃない？
Won't you look even more like me with my rigging?
そんな重装備はさすが…　にッ？！
I don't think I can manage something that hea...vy!?

む…むううう……
C...ca-...
すごいです！矢矧先輩耐えてます！
Wow, Yahagi-senpai is withstanding it!
さすが踏ん張りに定評のある矢矧！
As expected from the renowned bracer!

無理ーっ！
I can't!
やっぱダメかー
Thought so.

ーーー

秘密装備
Secret Equipment

最近の１５．２ｃｍ連装砲と８ｃｍ高角砲カッコイイなー！
Cool, you have the new 15.2cm barrel and 8cm anti-air gun!
いいでしょ　いいでしょー！
I know, they're super nice!

でもね矢矧には秘密装備があるんだよ！
But did you know that Yahagi has hidden equipment?
秘密装備！
Hidden equipment!

みんなにはナイショでこっそり積んだ装備が…
She has a something secret that she keeps a secret from everyone...

これは装備ではないし他言するなと何度言ったら…
I've told you so many times that it's not equipment and not to tell others...
角材！？
A piece of wood!?
Note: Some sailors were saved by floating wood used in damage control operations that were washed out after the Yahagi sank.


駆けつけ
Come Running

まぁまぁ　矢矧　落ち着いて
Come on, Yahagi, calm down.
大切なものなんだからしまってしまって
It's something important, so put it away.

阿賀野姉は矢矧のこと自慢したかったんだよ
Agano-nee just wanted to brag about you.
ね？　阿賀野姉？
Right?
うん…
Yeah...

それに　ほら　いくら艦娘といっても角材はさすがにね？
And, well, even ship girls don't do that.
いや　そこまでやるつもりは…
Err, I wasn't planning to go that far...
ていうか
Or rather...

不穏な空気を感じて長良が待機しちゃってるから…
Nagara is on full alert because of the atmosphere here...
ちなみに那珂ちゃんは間に合いませんでした
By the way, Naka-chan didn't make it in time.
Note: Naka was sent to aid Agano after she became unable to navigate after a torpedo attack. However, news of Agano sinking arrived along the way and she was sent back.

阿賀野係
Agano Duty

まったく阿賀野姉は…
Oh, Agano-nee...
大変そうですね
Sounds like you have your hands full.

阿賀野姉のお世話は能代の係みたいになっててね…
It's like I've become in charge of helping her...
ごはん作ったり後片づけしたりお腹出して寝てるのを直したり…
Like making her food, cleaning up afterwards, and covering her up in bed...

あー！阿賀野先輩燃料こぼしたー！
Ah! Agano-senpai spilled the fuel!
やだぁ　濡れちゃったよ～
Aww, I'm all wet~
もー　阿賀野姉！
Oh, come on!

ほら　拭くからじっとして！
I'll wipe it off, so stay still!
冷たいよー気持ち悪いよー
It's cold! And gross!
お世話というか育児？
Looks more like nursing rather than helping...

末っ子
Youngest Girl

阿賀野型が配属されたと聞いたんだが…
So I've heard that the Agano class has joined...
戦艦　長門
Battleship Nagato
長門先輩
Oh, Nagato-senpai.

…酒匂が見当たらんのだが…？
...But I'm not seeing Sakawa around...?
え？
Huh?
Note: Sakawa met her end with Nagato at the nuclear testing done at Bikini Atoll.

えーと　阿賀野でしょ？能代…矢矧…
Um...it goes...Agano...Noshiro...Yahagi...

置いてきちゃった？
Did she get left behind?

重巡洋艦　利根

利根姉さんどうしたんですか？
Tone-neesan, what's the matter?
大変じゃぞ　筑摩！なんと我々利根型が改二…　はッ
Big news, Chikuma! Our Tone class is getting a second...ah!

…お主らも知りたいか？
...Do you wish to know, too?
今「改二」って言ったのに改めてもったいぶった！
She was just said "second revision", but she's doing it again!

ーーー

知りたい
Want to Know

知りたいか？
Do you want to know?
し…知りたいなー
S-...sure...
気になりますー
I'm curious.
ぜひ教えて下さい
Please tell us.

そこまで言うなら仕方ないのう！
If you want to know it so badly, then sure!
いいか？驚くでないぞ…
Alright? Don't get too surprised, but...

なんと　我々利根型が改二になれるそうなのじゃ！
It seems that our Tone class is going to receive second revisions!
まぁ！
Wow!

驚いたか？驚いたか？
Were you surprised? Were you?
とっても驚きました
Very much so.
筑摩はいい妹だなぁ…
Chikuma is a good sister...

いい妹
Good Sister

日向も筑摩みたいに妹に優しい妹だったら…
Now if Hyuuga was a kind younger sister like Chikuma...
日向いい？出るわよ！
Hyuuga, are you ready? We're heading out!
はい！伊勢姉さん！（支援します！）
Yes, Ise-neesan! (I'll support you!)
伊勢　張り切りすぎ
Isae, you're too enthusiastic.
(妄想日向　いつもの日向）
(Imaginary Hyuuga Usual Hyuuga)

日向！見た見た？どうよ！
Hyuuga, did you see that? Whaddya think?
素敵です伊勢姉さん!
It was wonderful, Ise-neesan!
だからと言って意味はないけどね…
There's no point in saying it...
(妄想日向　いつもの日向）
(Imaginary Hyuuga(Ikazuchi IN) Usual Hyuuga)

ダメ…！こんなに甘やかされたら私ダメになっちゃう…！
No...! If I'm treated like this, I'll become useless...!

理由
Reason

おふたりとも改二になれるんですね
So you two are getting second revisions, huh.
うむ！
Aye!
しかし　利根型が改二ねえ…
But why would the Tone class get one...?

あれじゃな！吾輩は浮き砲台となっても最後まで戦い抜くいだからな！
It must be that! Even when I became a floating battery, I still fought to the bitter end!
Note: Tone was used as an air defense fort after exhausting all of her fuel.
私も日向も一緒にいたじゃん
Me and Hyuuga were with you too, you know.

それに筑摩は…
And Chikuma was...
Note: Chikuma sank at Leyte Gulf, though she did contribute to sinking the USS Gambier Bay.

利根姉さんのおかげで私まで改二になれるなんてとっても嬉しいです
I'm so happy I was able to get a second revision because of you.
そんなことはないぞ！筑摩も活躍してではないか
By no means! You did quite a bit as well, did you not?

怖…っ！めっちゃ怖…！
S-...so scary...!

改造
Remodelling

改二になると重巡洋艦から航空巡洋艦になるんですね
So you're going from a heavy cruiser to an aviation cruiser with this.
うむ！さらにたくさんの艦載機が積めるのじゃ！
Aye, and with many ship-borne planes to boot!
衣笠みたいに重巡のままじゃないんだ
So you're not staying a heavy cruiser like Kinugasa, huh.

あれ？でも最上先輩たちは最初の改造で艦種変わりますよね
Hmm? But Mogami-senpai's group changed their class on the first remodels.
損してるじゃん
Looks like you lost there.
何っ！
What!?

あれじゃ！吾輩らの空母改装計画もあったらしいしの！　千歳や千代田のようになるに違いない！
Well! We had plans to be remodeled into aircraft carriers! And become something like Chitose and Chiyoda!
ええっ？空母ですか！？
Huh? A aircraft carrier!?
あたしたちや扶桑型もあったんだよー
We and the Fusou class had that, too.
（結局航空戦艦になったけど）
(Though we ended up becoming aviation battleships)

ちなみに鈴谷たちもね
By the way, Suzuya's group also...
ムキ～！
Grr~!

ーーー

改二になるために
To Second Remodel

で　改二とはどうやったらなれるのじゃ？
So, how do we get this second remodel?
たしか　ある程度訓練練度を高めれば良いと…
Well, it's usual to practice and get enough proficiency...
ふむ
I see.

練度を高めるか…
To raise proficiency, huh...
しかし　提督に無断で出撃するわけにはいかんからのう…
But we can't sortie without the admiral's permission...

そういえば　筑摩たちは何をしておったのじゃ
Come to think of it, what were you all doing?
（あたしもいるよー）
(I'm here, too!)
吹雪ちゃんの砲撃練習を見てました
We were going to watch over Fubuki-chan's shelling practice.
なるほど　自主訓練か！
I see, independent training!

ならば　予定を変更して今日は艦隊演習にするぞ！
Well then, let's change those plans and do some fleet training today!
えーっ！？
Huh!?

演習用海域にて
To the Practice Area

すまんが胸を貸してくれ！
My apologies, but please allow us to join!
戦艦　大和、武蔵、陸奥、長門
Battleships Yamato, Musashi, Mutsu, Nagato

むむむむむむ無理です！絶対かないっこないですよ！
I-I-I-I-I-I can't! This definitely won't work out!
大丈夫！安心するのじゃ！
It's all right! Nothing to worry about!

負けて得られるものもあるのじゃ！
You gain things even from losing!
負ける前提ですか！？
Our loss is a given!?

ーーー

雷撃
Torpedo Attack

うう…怖い…
So scared...
何を言っておる！
What are you saying!

駆逐艦の売りは標的に肉薄しての強力な雷撃じゃろ？
Isn't the appeal of destroyers your powerful torpedo attacks?
そ…そうですけど…
W-...well, yes...

ならば　奴らに１発お見舞いしてやればいいのじゃ！
Well then, send them off with one shot!
うう…１発でなんとかなるものなのかな…
Urk...I wonder if that one shot is enough...
大丈夫じゃ！
It's okay!

１発でダメでも武蔵は２０発あてればなんとかなる！
If one isn't enough, Musashi can just do twenty!
そんなに撃てませんよ！
She can't shoot that much!

演習の後
After Practice

やっぱりボロ負け…
We were crushed after all...
わっはっは楽しかったのう！
Wahaha, that was fun!

ドック空いていますかね…
I wonder if the docks are open...
それなら大丈夫今回は模擬戦だから汚れが落ちれば…
You don't have to worry about that. This is a mock battle, so it just gets washed away...

ね？
See?
（お埠は空くけど）
(They are open, though)

ーーー

設計図を手に入れろ！
Obtain a Blueprint!

何！？鍛錬しただけでは改二になれんだと！
What? We won't get a second revision just through training!?
「改装設計図」が必要なのだそうよ
It looks like remodel blueprints are necessary.

その改装設計図」とやらはどこで手に入るのじゃ！間宮で売ってあるのか！
And how do we get that!? Does Mamiya sell it!?
ええと　「改装設計図」は多数の勲章をもらう活躍をした司令部に贈られるんですって
Umm, "Remodel blueprints are sent to headquarters who have been awarded with many medals", it says.

ならば　どうすれば勲章をもらえるのじゃ！
Then how do we get medals!?
拡張作戦とか特殊作戦で活躍すればいいみたい
Looks like you have to work hard in expansion and special operations.

あーーー！めんどくさいのう！
Gah! How troublesome!
（勇者フブキよ　聖なる卵と４つ集めて　聖剣を手に入れるのじゃ）
(Hero Fubuki, gather the four sacred orbs and I'll give you the sacred sword!)
(えーー）
(Come on, really?)
なんかどこかで見たような…
I think I've seen this before...

勲章
Medals

ん…？勲章…？
Hmm, medals..?

こないだ提督が勲章もらったって言ってたような…
I think I've head that the admiral received a medal recently...
何！？
What!?

ならば　さっそく提督の部屋からギンバイ(かっぱらい Navy jargon)してくるのじゃ！ゆくぞ筑摩！
Well then, off to pilfer it from his room! We're off, Chikuma!
ええっ！？
Eeh!?
あっ…
Ah...

勲章ひとつだけあっても…
It was only one...
（多数のって言ってたよね…）
(It said that you needed a lot, right...?)
（それよりギンバイはダメのでは…）
(Isn't the pilfering part the bigger problem...?)
後日　司令官さんが「利根に原因不明の八つ当たりされた」と仰っていたそうです
Later, the commander said that he was the target of an unprovoked outburst of anger from Tone.

利根先輩どうしたんですか？
What's the matter with Tone-senpai?
駆逐艦　吹雪

重巡洋艦　利根
Heavy Cruiser Tone
今回の作戦は索敵が重要でね…
Well, enemy detection is essential for this operation...
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
索敵なら利根先輩の得意分野じゃないですか
Isn't that her field of expertise?

こないだ航巡になれなかったでしょ？
She didn't become an aircraft cruiser, remember?
勲章が足りなかったんですよね？
We didn't have enough medals, right?
航空戦もできる艦を重点投入する方針だから…
There's also an emphasis on having ships that can launch planes...
あー…
Oh...

でも　何か声をかけたほうがいいんじゃ…
But shouldn't you at least say something...
（めちゃくちゃスネてますよ）
(She looks pretty upset)
それがね…
About that...
伊勢ー

戦艦　扶桑
Battleship Fusou

今　扶桑たちと交代で出撃してるから逆効果にしかならないのよ…
I'm taking turns sallying with Fusou's group, so it would only backfire...

艤装

みんな集まってー
Everyone, gather around!
戦艦　大和
Battleship Yamato

伊勢たちは出撃してるから私が今回の作戦を説明するわね
Ise and the rest are sortieing, so I'll be doing the explanations for the operation this time.
あの…
Excuse me, but...

兵装はどうされたんですか？
What happened to your equipment?

46ｃｍ三連装砲と零式水上偵察機が出撃艦隊に持っていかれちゃって…
The sortieing fleet had to take my 46cm triple turret guns and Type-0 spy planes...
武蔵先輩も艤装なしで歩いてました
Musashi-senpai was also walking around without her rigging.

海域名
Area Names

今回の作戦は南西海域方面３海域攻略が目的です
Our objective in this operation is the capture of three areas in the southwestern seas.

海域はそれぞれ「サメワニ沖」
They're divided into the following areas: "Sharkodile Sea",
鮫…鰐…
Sharks...and crocodiles...
Note: Battle of Java Sea (Location at Surabaya, where "sura" is shark and "baya" is crocodile in Javanese)
（フカヒレ　ワニのステーキ）
(Shark Fin | Crocodile Steak)

「ズンダ海峡」「ポートワイン沖」にわかれてて…
"Mashed Soybean Channel", and "Port Wine Sea"...
Note: A slight change to Battle of Sunda Strait makes it about mashed soybeans and Port Darwin to Port Wine
ずんだ…ポートワイン…
Mashed soybean...and port wine...

フルコースですね！
So it's a full course!
えっ？
Huh?

弾着観測射撃
Spotter-assisted Artillery Attacks

本作戦より弾着観測射撃が可能になりました
Starting with this operation, we are now able to perform spotter-assisted artillery attacks.
（おーーー！）
(Wow!)

弾着観測射撃は観測機で砲弾が落着した地点と目標との距離・効果を観測し
Spy planes are able to mark where our shots land and make the necessary adjustments.
修正を加えることでより正確で強力な攻撃を可能にします
These corrections allow for a more accurate and powerful attack.
（左にズレてるよー！）
(It's off to the left!)

より正確！強力！かっこいい！
More accurate! And stronger! Cool!
しかし…
However...

みんなは観測機搭載できないから弾着観測射撃できないのごめんねえええええええええ！
You all can't equip spy planes, so you can't do it! I'm sorrrrrrrrrrrry!

おかえりなさい　はい　燃料
Welcome back. Here, fuel.
ありがとー
Thanks!

…どうしたの？
...What's wrong?
みんなのまっすぐな目に耐えられなくて…
I can't bear looking at everyone's honest eyes...

教育って大変ね…
Training must be tough...
やっぱり伊勢ぐらいゆるいほうが適任なのかしら…
Maybe Ise's casual attitude is right to have after all...

You can do the job just fine being cheery.

そうですね…って早！
I guess...woah, that was fast!
まぁ　そんな時もあるよね～
Well, this can happen, too~
やられたのじゃー
They got us!

楽しい！
Fun!

それにしても弾着観測射撃は楽しいのう！
At any rate, spotter-assisted artillery attacks are certainly enjoyable!
正確で強力な砲撃ができるんですよね？
You can perform more accurate and powerful attacks, right?

うむ！主砲と電探でじゃな…
Aye! With our batteries and radars...
えっ？電探で攻撃するんですか！？
Huh? You can attack with radars!?
（イメージ図）
(Mental Image)

そうではない！電探で敵の位置を捕捉してじゃな…
Not quite! The radars pinpoint the location of the enemy...
（目標位置確認！）
(Location marking confirmed!)
ですよね
Thought so.

次は主砲全門一斉射とかしたいですね
I'd like to try out an all-out volley next time.
そうじゃな！
Indeed!

The usual missions are important, but capture campaigns are always exciting.

そう聞くと早く実戦に参加してみたいよなー
Hearing that makes me want to hurry and join the fight.
そうだねー
Yeah.

作戦に参加してれば魚雷バンバン撃ってやったのになー

Good morning, Item Store Girl!
こんにちはー　配達ですか？
Good morning, are you on a delivery?

違うよー！私も艦隊所属になったの！ほら　艤装つてるでしょ？
Nope! I'm part of the fleet now! See my rigging?
ほんとだー
You're right!

工作艦　明石　よろしくね！
I'm the Repair Ship Akashi, nice to meet you!
よろしくお願いしますー
It's nice to meet you.
このやりとりがしばらく続いたそうです
Looks like she'll have to keep repeating this exchange.

工作艦
Repair Ship

工作艦ってどんな艦なんですか？
What kind of ship is a Repair ship?
各種工作機械を搭載してて艦船の修理や整備ができるんだよー
They can repair and perform maintenance on ships with a variety of equipped tools.

艦娘なのに修理ができるんですか？
You can repair even though you're a ship girl?
移動できる工廠って感じかな！
It's kind of like I'm a mobile shipyard!

工廠ということは…
Being a shipyard means...

かわいい…
How cute...
妖精さんじゃないよ！？
I'm not a fairy!

便利
Convenient

どうして移動する必要があるんですか？
Why is it necessary to be mobile?
（本拠地　拠点　泊地・修理　損傷）
(Headquarters | Base | Anchorage/Servicing Damage)
遠方で損傷すると本拠地まで戻って修理しなきゃいけないでしょ？
You have to travel back all the way to headquarters to get repaired when you take damage, right?
でも　私なら多少の損傷は泊地に停泊して修理できるの
However, I can serve as an anchorage to repair minor amounts of damage.

ドックじゃなくても修理できるのは便利ですね
Being able to repair without a dock is pretty convenient.
私も船だからなんでも修理できるってわけじゃないんだけどね
But I'm still a ship, so it's not like I can repair anything.
（修理できるのは小破までだし）
(Just up to minor damage)

あと　修理を途中でやめて出撃できるところは便利なとこかな
It's also convenient that repairs can be stopped at any time so the ships can sortie out.
入渠時間を気にすることなく修理できるんですね
So repairs can be done without having to worry about the docking time.
でも…
However...

修理時間が足りないからいっぺんに来られると時間かかるからね！
There's never enough time for repairs, so if everyone comes at once, it still takes a while!
（飛行甲板見て下さい）

So being the prototype makes me the older sister, huh...
悪いこと言っちゃったわね
Guess I said something I shouldn't have.

I'm sorry, Shimakaze. If there's anything I can do as a friend to make up for it...

ふたりともすごい波だね　相当速度が出て…
They're both pretty impressive. With matching bow waves...

あれ？
Huh?

天津風の艦首波は見た目だけよ
Amatsukaze's bow waves are just for show.
（速度は私たちとあまり変わらないわ）
(Her speed is about the same as ours)
そうなの！？
Really!?

艦首
Ship Bow

なんか癖で大きい波を起こしちゃうのよね…
I tend to keep making these big waves...
（島風がいちばーん！）
(Shimakaze's first!

でも　これで　速度を錯覚させて　敵の攻撃を回避したこともあるのよ
But with this, I'm able to mask my speed. I've avoided an enemy attack like this before, too.
へー！
Wow!

だから遅くてもいいのよ！
So it's alright to be slower!
天津風ちゃん…
Amatsukaze-chan...

私のダブルカーブドバウを付け替えてあげられれば…
If only you had used my double curved bow...
だっ…大丈夫です！今はほら！連装砲くんもいますから！
I-...it's alright! Look! Rensouhou-kun's with me now!

ーーー

大丈夫
Alright

神通先輩は優しすぎるのが玉にきずよね
Jintsu-senpai's over-kindness is her single flaw.
優しいというか心配性というか…
Well, maybe it's more like being a worrywart than over-kindness...

天津風ちゃん　前！前！
Amatsukaze-chan, look out!
え…？
Huh...?
天津風ちゃん！
Amatsukaze-chan!

ぶつかりそうな時は飛び越せば大丈夫！
Leap over it when you're about to collide and you'll be alright!
普通はできないよ！
That's normally not possible!

そろそろ
About Time

そろそろ帰るわよ
It's about time to head back.
もう　戻っちゃうの？
We returning already?
みんなの訓練も見てあげようと思ってたのに
I thought I was going to watch you all train.

今回は島風が競争しようって言っただけで！
This time it was just Shimakaze wanting to race!
でも　せっかくだか…
But, we might as well...
天津風の引っ越しもまだなので！
Amatsukaze still hasn't moved in!

そう…じゃあみんなの鍛錬はまた次の機会に
I see...then we'll save the training until next time.
はいっ！ありがとうございました！
Yes! Thank you very much!

せっかく神通先輩が訓練見てくれるのに…
We even got her to watch over training...
（もったいない）
(What a waste)

あのねぇ　神通先輩は確かに優しいけど…
You know, Jintsu-senpai is kind...
（じゃあねー）
(Goodbye, then)

訓練に関して鬼よ
But she's a demon when it comes to training.
（思い出すだけで震えが…）
(I'm shivering just by thinking about it...)
！？

部屋割り変更
Room Change

というわけで　私は天津風のとこに行くわね
Alright, I'm going to Amatsukaze's now.
うう…
Sniff...

[Shimakaze Intensifies]

大丈夫
Alright

雪風の寝言大丈夫なの？
Are you alright with Yukikaze's sleep talk?
島風は大丈夫！
I'm alright!

寝言が聞こえなければいいんでしょ？
It's no problem if you just don't hear it, right?
まあ　そうだけど…
Well, yeah...

おやすみなさ…
Good ni-...

島風ちゃん寝るの早！
That was fast!
島風ちゃんは一度寝ると朝まで起きないし朝も早いそうです
Shimakaze-chan doesn't wake up until the morning once she sleeps, and she wakes up early, too.
（だから大丈夫）
(So it's alright!)

第43話

なんと今回の作戦では
It seems that in this operation...
駆逐艦　深雪、初雪、白雪、吹雪
Destroyers Miyuki, Hatsuyuki, Shirayuki, Fubuki

無理言ってるのはわかってるの…
I know it's asking a lot...
でもお願い！
But please!
軽巡洋艦　阿賀野
Light Cruiser Agano

私からも頼む！
This is coming from me, too!
戦艦　長門
Battleship Nagato

ああああ頭をあげてください！先輩方そこまで言われたら…
P-please raise your heads! If you're going to go that far...
まだ半人前の私たちが実戦に出ることになりました
...our half-fledged group is going to engage in live combat.

ーーー

何がある？
What is There?

ピーコック島に何があるんですか？
What's at the Peacock Islands?
酒匂って知ってる？
Do you know about Sakawa?
軽巡洋艦　能代
Light Cruiser Noshiro
置いてきちゃった妹さんですよね
The sister that you left behind, right?
その子がね…
About her...

もー！こうなったら自力で鎮守府に着任するんだから！
Sheesh! I'll just get to the base by myself!
軽巡洋艦　酒匂
Light Cruiser Sakawa
酒匂はいっぱい訓練したからひとりで大丈夫…
Sakawa did a lot of training, so she'll be fine by herself...

（ぴゃーーー！）
(Pyaaa!
（コーチクルー？　クルッテー　エー　ヴァー）
(Are they coming...? They will... Yes... Va...)

そこの海域から出られなくなったらしいの…
She ended up being stuck at that area.
（ドコダ　ドコイッタ）
(Where is she? | Where did she go? )
セルフ捕虜！
Self-imprisonment!

姉妹
Sisters

わかりました！未熟者ですが精一杯がんばります！
Understood! We may be green, but we'll do our very best!
すまない…酒匂は私にとっても妹のような…
Sorry about this...Sakawa is like a little sister to me.
ちょっと待って下さい
Wait a moment.
軽巡洋艦　矢矧
Light Cruiser Yahagi

長門さんには陸奥さんがいらしゃるじゃないですか！
Don't you have Mutsu-san?

それをいうなら矢矧だって大和の妹分的なアピールしてるじゃないか！
If you're going to say that, aren't you acting like you're Yamato's younger sister!?
（お互い様だ！）
(It goes both ways!)
うっ…！
Urk!
酒匂先輩は愛されてるんだなあって思いました
Sakawa is pretty loved, I thought.

新装備
New Equipment

うーん　ビビってるねー
Yep, they're scared.
そりゃ　いきなり実戦なんだから怖いでしょうよ…
Well, they're heading out to the real thing all of a sudden, so it's a given...

そこでみんなに新装備をプレセントするよ！
So we have some new equipment as presents for all of you!
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
新装備…ですか？
New...equipment?
今回の作戦に特化した装備よ
They're specialized for this operation.
戦艦　日向
Battleship Hyuuga

はい！ソナーと爆雷！
Tada! Sonars and depth charges!
ソナーと爆雷のシナジーでより効果的な攻撃ができるよ！
Using the synergy of sonars and depth charges, you can perform even more effective attacks!

新装備…
New equipment...
対潜特化…
Anti-sub specialized...
シナジー…
Synergy...
より効果的…
Even more effective...
かっこいい！
Cool!
素直で助かるわー
Glad that you like them.

主義
Doctrine

出撃メンバーは私と阿賀野と第11駆逐隊の4人ね
The sallying members will be comprised of me, Agano, and the four from Destroyer Division 11.
（よろしくねー）
(Let's do it!)
よろしくお願いします！
Let's do our best!

阿賀野先輩たちが出撃するのはわかるんですが
I understand why Agano-senpai would be a part of this,
川内先輩は大丈夫なんですか…？
But is Sendai-senpai alright with this...?
大丈夫だよー
It's all right!

対潜ってことは夜戦ないんでしょ？
So anti-sub means no night battle, right?
じゃあ行かなーい
Then I'm not going!
軽巡洋艦　川内
Light Cruiser Sendai

…って
...She said.
夜戦主義…
The Night Battle Doctrine...

ーーー

伊勢型
Ise-class

それじゃ出撃！
Then let's go!
はいっ！
Roger!

（お！めずらしい島だ！）
(Oh! What a weird island!
わわっ！
Woah!

ひゃっ！
Hya!
（あの島影は…？）
(What's that island in the distance...?)

伊勢先輩　真っ直ぐ前見て進んでください！
Ise-senpai, please look ahead and advance!
いやー　どうもまっすぐ進むの苦手でさー
My bad, I'm not too good with that.
（特に気になるものがあるとつい…）
(When there's something interesting, I just...)
日向先輩も考え事をしてふらふら進むことが多いそうです
Seems that Hyuuga-senpai's advances are often also shaky due to being deep in thought.

対潜
Anti-sub

敵影発見！
Signs of the enemy detected!
会敵します！
Engaging the enemy!

敵潜水艦魚雷発射！
Enemy submarine torpedoes have fired!
みんな！対潜行動行くよ！
Everyone! Prepare to perform anti-sub maneuvers!
せーので…
Get ready, and...

跳んで！
Jump!

これが対潜行動なんですか！？
These are anti-sub maneuvers!?
（びっくりした…）
(That was a surprise...)
（陣形ととのえて攻撃に移るよー！）
(Get into formation and get ready to attack!)
そうだよ！
That's right!
私のオリジナルだけどね！
It's my original concept, though!
（スリルあるでしょ？）
(Pretty thrilling, huh?)

ーーー

楽勝？
A Cinch?

よっしゃあ！爆雷命中！
All right! The depth charges hit!
おー　調子いいね
Oh, aren't we in good form.

開幕の雷撃さえ避けちゃえば問題ないですもんね！
It's no problem if we just avoid their initial torpedo attack!

この調子ならボスも楽勝…？
Maybe the boss will also be a cinch at this rate...?
こらこら慢心はダメだぞー
Hey, watch that ego.

敵任務部隊もいるんだから
There's an enemy task force, after all.
？！

ボス
Boss

なんとか突破…次はボス戦だよ！
We somehow managed to break through...next is the boss!
はいっ！
Right!

あの…ボスということは噂に聞く鬼とか姫とかなんでしょうか…
Um...so we've heard rumors that bosses are demons and princesses and such...
違うよ？
Not really.

耐久力あるから1回じゃ倒せないのは一緒だけど
Just something with high stamina that won't go down in one go.
ちょっと強い潜水艦？　てとこかな
Probably, a pretty strong submarine?

じゃあみんな行くよ…
Then let's go...
（がっかり…）
(Disappointment...)
ってアレ？
...Huh?
ボスはきちんと倒しました
The boss was easily taken care of.

ーーー

艦隊出撃！
The Fleet Sorties!

それじゃあ行ってくる
Then, we're off.
酒匂を必ず連れて帰るからな
We'll definitely come back with Sakawa.
はい！お気をつけて！
Yes! Be careful!

そう言い残して出撃する鎮守府最強艦隊の後ろ姿は
Seeing off the base's strongest fleet's departing figures with those words,
とても力強く誇らしいものでした
was a very powerful and magnificent thing.

その姿を見て
Looking at them then,
私たちもいつかあんなふうになれたらな…と思いました
I wanted us to become like that someday, too.

燃費以外は
With the exception of fuel consumption.
燃料も弾薬もほぼ尽きてる…
The fuel and ammunition are pretty much gone...
えーっ！ドック25時間待ち！？
What!? 25 hours at the dock!?

再会
Reunion

酒匂！
Sakawa!
あーっ長門だ！
Ah, it's Nagato!

酒匂　久しぶり
Sakawa, it's been so long.
矢矧ちゃん！
Yahagi-chan!

酒匂…
Sakawa...
ぴゃあ？どちら様ですか？
Pya? Who are you?

うそうそ！阿賀野ちゃんと能代ちゃん！
Just kidding! Agano-chan and Noshiro-chan!
置いて行かれたのでちょっと意地悪したそうです
Looks like she wanted to get back at them a bit for being left behind.

第44話

今日も雨かぁ
Rain again today, huh...
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki
すっかり梅雨だね
We're completely in the rainy season now.
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

今日は練習お休みだっけ
Are we taking a break from practice today?
伊勢先輩が雨で調子悪いから休むって…
Ise-senpai said the rain is making her feel down, so she's taking the day off...

たしかに雨の日は調子でないよね
Yeah, rainy days tend to do that.
海も荒れるし　視界も悪いしね
The ocean gets rought and it's hard to see, too.
でも…
But...

雨が降ると元気が出る人たちもいるみたいだけど…
It looks like there are some who love it when it rains...

ーーー

雨にも負けず
Beat the Rain

潜水艦の先輩たちにもいろんなタイプがいるんだね
Looks like there are various types within the submarines, too.
？

濡れるのが好きじゃないタイプ
Types that don't like to get wet
（スマホがぬれるとこまるから…）
(I don't want my smart phone to get wet...)
潜水艦　伊168
Submarine I-168
（はちは本読むから…）
(Hachi reads books...)
潜水艦　伊8
Submarine I-8

濡れても平気タイプ
Types that are fine with getting wet
潜水艦　伊19
Submarine I-19
潜水艦　伊58
Submarine I-58

濡れても平気な上に水たまりで遊ぶタイプ？
Types that are fine with getting wet and jump in puddles?
（大丈夫？！）
(Are you alright!?)
潜水艦　伊401
Submarine I-401
潜水艦　まるゆ
Submarine Maruyu
コケただけだよ吹雪ちゃん！
She only fell over, Fubuki-chan!

憂鬱
Melancholy

まるゆさんの白い水着が茶色に…
Maruyu-san's white bathing suit is now brown...
勘弁してほしいぜ…
Give me a break...
軽巡洋艦　木曾
Light Cruiser Kiso
木曾先輩！
Kiso-senpai!

まるゆさんの付きそいですか？
You came with Maruyu-san?
おう
Yeah.

他の連中と外で遊びたいって言うから連れてきたんだが…
I took her here because she wanted to play with these guys out here...
（きゃ～～）
(Kya~)
（どろんこしゅーふくー！）
(Mud repairs!)
泥んこですね…
And she got all muddy...

まるゆと水着を洗うの一苦労なんだよな…
Cleaning her and her swimsuit is hard...
保護者の憂鬱だ…！
A guardian's melancholy!

新開発
Newly Developed

傘が薔前檣に当って上手く差せなかったからいいアイテムを開発したんだ
I developed a new item that lets us hold up umbrellas without our foremasts getting in the way.

これを使って…
We use this, and...

じゃじゃーん！
Tada!

無理に傘差さなくても艤装外したほうが良いんじゃないかな…
Rather, wouldn't it be easier to just take off our riggings...?
（煙突に雨入らなくてとく済むし）
(Our chimneys can handle water fine)

雨水
Rain Water

あそこにいるおのは…
Over there, isn't it...
飛龍先輩と蒼龍先輩？
Hiryuu-senpai and Souryuu-senpai?
正規空母　蒼龍
Aircraft Carrier Souryuu
正規空母　飛龍
Aircraft Carrier Hiryuu
Note: It might be better to reverse the name tags in this case.

大事な空母甲板を雨ざらしにしていいんですか！？
You're alright with using your precious carrier decks to collect water!?
いやー
Well...

雨が降ると反射的に雨水集めちゃうんだよね…
When it rains, we just reflexively collect rain water...
鎮守府でお水に困ることなんてないんだけどねー
Even though the base has no shortage of it...
もったいない気がして我慢できないそうです
They feel it's a waste and can't help themselves, apparently.

ーーー

飛行甲板
Flight Deck

雨といえば空母寮は…
Speaking of rain, the carrier dorm must be...

また準鷹先輩が倒れてるーっ！？
Junyou-senpai has collapsed again!?
軽空母　準鷹
Light Carrier Junyou

大丈夫ですか！？また雨漏りで被弾したんですか！？
Are you alright!? Did you get bombed by roof leaks again!?
いや…雨漏りは直してもらったんだけど…
No...that was fixed, but...

虫干しサボってたら飛行甲板と艦載機がしなしなになっちゃって…
I skipped on airing my scroll, so my flight deck and planes are all mushy...
紙！
Paper!

憧れの
Anticipation

だからちゃんと虫干ししなさいっていったでしょ
I told you to air out that thing.
軽空母　飛鷹
Light Carrier Hiyou
うう…すみません…
Uu...sorry...
そうです！虫干しはとっても大切であります！
That's right! Airing out your scroll is important!
揚陸艦　あきつ丸
Landing Craft Akitsumaru

あれ？あきつ丸さんは普通の飛行甲板じゃなかったでしたっけ
Huh? I thought your flight deck was the usual type.
たしかに今はこのような甲板でありますが…
It's true that I currently have a deck like this...

改になると飛鷹殿たちのような甲板になるのであります
But after my revision, I get a type like Hiyou-dono's group.
それは不便になるんじゃ…
But isn't that more inconvenient...?
とんでもない！
By no means!

移動時に小さく収納できる　飛行甲板は大変便利なのであります！
It's easily stow-able and small when moving, so it's very convenient!
飛行甲板も一長一短あるみたいです
Looks like flight decks have their own advantages and disadvantages.

気違い
Enthusiast

龍田先輩　またてるてる坊主ですか？
Tatsuta-senpai, are you doing rain charms again?
ええ
That's right.
軽巡洋艦　龍田
Light Carrier Tatsuta

量が多いと怖いって言われたから提督のお部屋にだけ飾ろうかなって
I was told that they were too scary in large amounts, so I'm thinking of just doing it in the admiral's room.
（潜水艦）
(Submarine)

もしかしてまたあの怖いてるてる坊主ですか…
Don't tell me you're doing that scary one again...
さすがに今はウチにも潜水艦の子たちが来たからちょっと気を使って…
Well, we have our own sub girls here, so I took that into consideration...

敵潜水艦って書いておいたの
And wrote "Enemy Submarine" instead.
（敵潜水艦）
(Enemy Submarine)
微妙な気づかい！
What a minute concession!

てるてる坊主
Rain Charms

これだけじゃ寂しいからみんなを模したのも作ってみたのよ
It felt lonely with just these, so I made some resembling the others.
かわいい！
How cute!

あとは暁型とか高雄型とか球磨ちゃんとか
Like the Akatsuki, Takao, and Kuma classes.
帽子や髪型はわかりやすいですね
They're easy to tell apart with their hats and hairstyles.

頭部以外だとお洋服で表現したのとか…
And even some based off their uniforms...
妙高型と川内型ですね
The Myoukou and Sendai classes, right?

艤装にこだわった大和型は力作よ
The Yamato-class one with its rigging is my masterpiece.
艤装の重みで中破してませんか！？
Isn't it damaged from the rigging's weight!?

ーーー

いつものやつ
The Usual

そういえば扶桑先輩のいつものやつって梅雨のもあるのかな…
Speaking of which, I wonder if Fusou-senpai does the usual thing during the rainy season, too...
艦橋はてるてる坊主にはできないんじゃないかな
I don't think her bridge can do rain charms.
そうだよねー
Guess so.

って扶桑先輩…
Oh, Fusou-senpai...
戦艦　扶桑
Battleship Fusou

と長門先輩！？
And Nagato-senpai!?
戦艦　長門
Battleship Nagato

これで子どもたちに大人気よ！
You'll be very popular with the children with this!
そうか…！
Really...!
あれはアドバイスなのかな…
Is that supposed to be advice...?

雨水
Rain Water

この窓を水を叩く感じ…懐かしいな…
Seeing the rain hit the window...is so nostalgic...
重巡洋艦　加古
Heavy Cruiser Kako
そうだね…
Yeah...
重巡洋艦　古鷹
Heavy Cruiser Furutaka

窓開けたら外で遊んでる連中の水しぶきが入っちゃうか
I wonder if water will spray in from those guys outside if we open the window.
お掃除大変になっちゃうね
That wouldn't be fun to clean.

雨の日は部屋がより水族館ぽくなるので落ち着くそうです
Looks like their room becomes even more like a relaxing aquarium on rainy days.
Note: The Furutaka class's windows always had to be closed because water would leak in from their portholes from waves. They were called aquariums by the other ships as a result.

There were a lot of days off due to rain, after all.
ライムジュース単品で！
I'll just have the lime juice!

初雪ちゃんは…

ひきこもって貯めたおやつ券を使う…！
She's using up the tickets she saved up staying indoors...!
おやつ券セレブ！
She's a ticket celebrity!

どりこの１・・４の牛乳濃い目割で！
I'll take my Dorikono strong with a 1:4 milk ratio!
Note: Dorikono, like Calpis, came in a concentrated form to be combined with liquids. It was originally invented to help calorie absorption.
贅沢！
How extravagant!

そしてお茶菓子はシュークリーム！
And I'll be having the cream pastry!

Really!? I want to try your snacks!
気合！入れて！比叡オリジナルスコーン作ります！
I'll try my best, and make some Hiei-original scones!
No!気合入れるのは…
No! If you put in that effort...

比叡オリジナルスコーン間宮さん風完成しました！
Hiei's original scones, done Mamiya-style, are complete!

Is that alright?

お茶会はみんな一緒のほうが楽しいネ！
Tea parties are best enjoyed with everybody!

And...

あのような感じはよくないカラネ…
Something like that isn't very good...

シロップ漬けをお茶菓子にする場合はお砂糖を入れなくても美味しく飲めマース
If you're going to use syrup on the snacks, you can enjoy the tea just fine without sugar.

What about you?

私たちは間宮さんに頼んでたカレーの具材を取りにきたのよ
We came to pick up the curry ingredients that we ordered from Mamiya-san.
大和先輩たちは何のカレーにするんですか？
What type of curry were you planning to make?

いつものコレよ
The usual kind.

いつもの！？
The usual!?
（チキン）
(Chicken)

ーーー

賜餞？
Celebration?

伊勢海老食べたことないね…
I've never eaten spiny lobster...
初めて見た…
It's the first time I've seen one...
戦艦はすごいね…
Battleships are amazing...
駆逐艦　子日、五月雨、大潮
Destroyers Nenohi, Samidare, Ooshio
あっごめんなさい
Oh, sorry.

じゃあ　みんなに伊勢海老カレーご馳走するわね
We'll share some of our lobster curry with you all, then.
少しずつになっちゃうけど
The portions might be small, though.
（わーい）
(Hooray!)

じゃあ　私たちもチキンカレーご馳走しますね！
Then we'll share our chicken curry with you!
大和先輩　アイスクリームも作ってください！
Yamato-senpai, please make some ice cream!
ええ
Sure.

（やったーー！）
(Yay!)
戦艦　日向、伊勢
Battleships Hyuuga, Ise

賑やかだけど何やってんの？お祝い？
It sure is lively here. What's going on, a celebration?
みんなで夕飯作って食べようって…
We were going to have some dinner toge-...
ああ　食事会ね
Ah, a dinner party.

お祝い＋食事＝賜餞があると聞いて！
We heard that there was a (celebration + food = ) reception going on!
Note: I chose an equivalent, I'm not sure how 賜餞 works out.
空母寮のみんなさん
Everyone from the Carrier Dormitory
え？！
Huh!?

え？賜餞なの？何のお祝いか知らないけど賜餞なら提督の奢り？
It's a reception? I don't know what we're celebrating, but it's the admiral's treat, right?
賜餞！奢り！食べ放題！
Reception! His treat! All you can eat!

いやあの　セルフなだけで…
No, well, we have to do it ourselves...
(○賜餞…お祝い事等での食事会）
(Reception: A celebratory dinner party)

間宮さんいないからセルフでご飯作るんだって！
Mamiya-san's not here, so we have to make our own food, huh!
じゃあ好きな材料使えるじゃん！
So that means we can use any ingredients we want!
伊勢海老とか使おー！
Like those spiny lobsters!
もちろん提督のお財布は大破しました
Needless to say, the admiral's wallet was heavily damaged.

第46話

おはよー
Morning!
おはよー
Morning.
駆逐艦　綾波、敷波、深雪、吹雪、初雪、白雪
Destroyers Ayanami, Shikinami, Miyuki, Fubuki, Hatsuyuki, Shirayuki

あれ？綾波ちゃん雰囲気変わった？
Huh? Did you change something about yourself?
特になにもしていないのだけれど…
Nothing special, really...

でも…
But...

髪が伸びてるー！？
Your hair got longer!?
（ほんとだ）
(It's true)

ーーー

前兆
Sign

こんなに伸びるまで気づかないほど会ってなかったけ…
Could it really have grown this much without us noticing...?
昨日　訓練の時一緒だったじゃん
We were even with her at practice yesterday.

でも　髪ってひと晩でこんなに伸びないよね？
But hair doesn't grow like this overnight.
伸びないでしょフツー
Not normally.
これはもしかして…！
Could this be...

改二になったら身長や体の一部が大きくなったり
髪が伸びたりする現象の前兆…！？
A sign of the second remodel phenomenon, where your height and other parts of your body may become bigger!?

な…なんだってー！
W...what!?

具体例
Concrete Example

改二になると見た目が変わることがあるのは知ってたけど前兆なんてあるんだ
I knew that your appearance changes after a second revision, but I didn't know there were signs.
聞いた話では…
From what I've heard...

夕立ちゃんの目が急に赤くなったらどこかに遊びに行くようにしたり
Yuudachi-chan's eyes turn red and then she acts like she wants to play somewhere,
（最近ヒマっぽい…）
(Seems dull recently...)
駆逐艦　白露、夕立
Destroyer Shiratsuyu, Yuudachi

（今日はこれを使おう…）
(Let's use this today...)
（白？！）
(White!?)
普段は柄物のハンカチを愛用してる響ちゃんが白いハンカチを使い始めたら暁型お泊り会をして
And Hibiki-chan starts using a white handkerchief instead of her favorite patterned one, so the Akatsuki-class has a sleepover.
駆逐艦　暁、響
Destroyers Akatsuki, Hibiki

気分転換させるらしい…
Seems like a change in mood...
気分の問題なの！？
It's a mood issue!?

ーーー

立ち位置
Role

理由はともかく急な変化だしマジでなるのかねー
Regardless of the reason, I wonder if this sudden change means it's happening soon...
どうでしょう…
I wonder...

てことは暁型　白露型に続いて綾波型にも先越されちゃうのかー
This means that the Akatsuki, Shiratsuyu, and now the Ayanami-class beat us to it now.
しかも綾波ちゃんは駆逐艦ネームシップで最初だね…
And Ayanami-chan's the first destroyer nameship to get it...

吹雪ちゃんがショックのあまり自己暗示を…
Fubuki-chan is starting autosuggestion from the shock...
ワシントン条約制限下で設計された、世界中を驚愕させたクラスを超えた特型駆逐艦の一番艦、吹雪です。私たちは、後の艦隊型駆逐艦のベースとなりました。
I'm Fubuki the first ship of special-type destroyers designed under the regulations of Washington Naval Treaty that set new standards and shocked the world We served as the basis for the destroyers to come (etc)
Note: No punctuation because it was originally like that.

おっとり？
Slow-tempo?

ほ　ほら　綾波ちゃんはすごい武勲がね…
Y-you know, it's because she had some impressive feats of valor
ひとりで艦隊戦やったもんね…
She fought a battle all by herself, after all...
うう…たしかに…
Yeah...you're right...

綾波ってそんなにすごかったの？今はおっとりしてるのに
Was she really that amazing? Even though she's so slow-tempo now.
そっか　深雪ちゃんは知らないんだっけ
Oh right, I guess you wouldn't know.

私と初雪ちゃんが見た綾波ちゃんをたとえると…
The Ayanami that me and Hatsuyuki-chan saw was...

猛訓練モードの神通先輩か悪夢モードの夕立ちゃんかな…
Kind of like Jintsu-senpai in hell training mode or Yuudachi-chan in her nightmare mode...
（イメージ図）
(Mental Image)
軽巡洋艦　神通
Light Cruiser Jintsuu
？！

ーーー

変更点
Changed Areas

考えてもわかんないし青葉先輩に情報ないか聞いてみようよ
Since wondering about it isn't going to do anything, let's ask Aoba-senpai if she has any information.
そうだねー
Guess so.

そういえば綾波ちゃんから吸気口がお椀型になったんだっけ
Come to think of it, a bowl model was used for the intake ducts starting from you, right?
うん
Yeah.

あとは艦橋が大きくなったり主砲の仰角が増えたかな
And the bridges got bigger and the main battery angle was increased.
へー
I see.
その代わりバランスが悪くなって…
But balance got worse in exchange...

流れを継いだⅢ型で深雪ちゃんに迷惑を…
The Type IIIs that continued this trend a caused a lot of problems for Miyuki-chan...
あー…
Ah...
Note: Type III is Akatsuki onwards. If you recall, Inazuma collided with Miyuki and sank her.

影
Shadow

というわけで
With that said,
青葉先輩に間宮券で情報をもらいました
we got the information from Aoba-senpai in exchange for some Mamiya vouchers.
どれどれ…
Let's see...

綾波
改二
Ayanami
Rev. 2

かんか影がある！
There's some sort of shadow!
あと確かに髪が長い！
And her hair is indeed long!

ーーー

黒　…
Dark...

一番活躍したのが夜戦だったからかしら…
Perhaps it's because my best moment was in night battle...
だから制服も黒っぽいのかな？
Is that why your uniform is also dark?
夜戦迷彩？
Night camouflage?
そんなのやったことないよ
She's never had that.

こっちに「正に猛り狂う黒豹」って書いてる
"Like a Rampaging Black Panther" is also written here.
黒豹！？
Black panther!?

黒豹って言うとあの豹だよね…
They're talking about that panther, right...?
ネコ科の大きくて強いやつだな…
That big and strong type in the cat family...

今はどう見ても黒豹って言うより黒猫だよね…
No matter how you look at it, she's more of a black cat now, though...

夜目
Night Eyes

改二になると探照灯と照明弾持ってるんだね
Looks like she'll come with a searchlight and flares.
（いいなー）
(How nice)
えっ
Really?

あの時はどちらも使わなかったと思うとだけど…
I don't think I used either of them that time, though...
そうなの！？
Seriously!?

あったら便利だったってことじゃないの？
Maybe it's because it would have been nice to have them.
じゃあその時はどうやって敵を見つけたの？
Then how did you find the enemy then?

それは目視で…
It was with direct eyesight...
黒豹だけに！？
Like a black panther!?

ーーー

いつ？
When?

綾波ちゃんはいつ改二になれるの？
When are you going to receive that second revision?
ええと…
Let's see...

この資料には「かなり高い練度」で改造可能って…
This document says it's possible at a "considerably high level"...

かなり高い練度
Considerably High Level

じゃあ　まだまだか…
So it's going to be a while...
高い練度ってだいぶ先っぽいよなー
A high level means that it's going to be near the end, huh.
私たちまだ見習いだしね
We're still learning, after all.
（そうですね…）
(Yeah...)

髪
Hair

すぐに改二になれなくて残念？
You disappointed that you're not becoming that right away?
みんなの力を合わせないと勝つことはできないですから…
We can't win without all of us cooperating, after all...
そっか
Gotcha.

てかこの髪どーすんの
So what are you going to do about that hair?
（邪魔そう）
(Looks annoying)
そうですね…
Well...

元の長さに切ってまた同じ長さになるころに改二になれるよう頑張ることにしましょうか
I'll have it cut to how it was before and try my best to become ready for my second revision by the time it grows back.

じゃあ　部屋に戻ったらアタシが切ってあげるよ
Alright, I'll cut it when we get back to our room.
ぜひお願いします
Please do.

第47話

今夜は七夕！ということでみんなで笹飾りを作るよー
It's Tanabata tonight, so let's make some decorations!
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
（はーい！）
(Yeah!)

作った飾りは用意した笹に吊るして…
Hang up your finished decorations on the bamboo we've set up...
扶桑先輩今回は笹になってるのかな
I wonder if Fusou-senpai is going with bamboo this time...
吹き流しかも…？
Maybe a streamer?

たくさん吊るしてねー
Hang up all you want.
戦艦　扶桑
Battleship Fusou
（おりひめ）
(Orihime)
そっち！？
She's doing THAT!?
我々に吊るしてくれても構わないぞ？
We don't mind if you hang them up, you know?
戦艦長門
Battleship Nagato
（ビッグ7）
(Big Seven)
もうひとりいた！
And there's another!

ーーー

短冊
Wish Strips

笹希望者は置いといてまずは短冊にお願い事を書いてみよう！
Let's not mind the bamboo right now and write down your wishes first!

（はーい）
(Okay!)
何書いてもいいんですか？
Can we write down anything?
いいよー世界平和でも自分自身のお願いでも！
Sure, like world peace or a personal wish!

吹雪ちゃん…？
Fubuki-chan...?

クリスマスはいい事書いてた吹雪ちゃんが…！
The Fubuki-chan that wrote down such a nice wish at Christmas is...!
（あ…）
(Ah...)
改二祈願
(Second Rev. Prayer)

吹き流し
Streamer

短冊が書けたら飾りを作るよー
After writing down your wishes, next is making decorations.
最初は吹き流しね
We'll start with streamers.

なんで吹き流しを吊るすんですか？
Why are streamers hung up?
織姫の織り糸を表してて機織上達の願いの他に魔除けの意味もあるんだよ
They represent Orihime's fabric strands and also serves as a charm against evil if getting better at weaving doesn't interest you.
こいのぼりにもついてるでしょ？
There are carp streamers too, remember?
吹き流し…
Streamers...
（折り紙持ってきたよー）
(I brought the origami paper!)
駆逐艦　天津風
Destroyer Amatsukaze

（ありがたや　ありがたや…）
(Thank you for everything...)
（拝まないで！）
(Don't start praying!)
魔除けは五色だからでしょ！私のは普通の吹き流し！
They're charms because they're multicolored! Mine's just a normal streamer!

ーーー

投網
Casting Net

伊勢先輩これは何ですか？
Ise-senpai, what's this?
駆逐艦　深雪
Destroyer Miyuki
それは投網だよー
That's a casting net.

（へー）
(Huh.)
豊年満作・豊漁で食べるものに困りませんようにって願いを……
They're used to wish for a bountiful harvest so there are no problems with food...
はい！　いいですよー
Sure, no problem!

赤城先輩も一緒に作りましょう
Let's make some together.

ちょっ…赤城先輩なんで投網ばっかり作ってるんですか！？
Wha-...why are you only making casting nets!?
（やっぱり）
(Figures.)

巾着
Handbag

この袋はいったい…
What is this pouch...?
駆逐艦　初雪
Destroyer Hatsuyuki
それは巾着で昔のお財布だね
That's a handbag like the wallets used in the past.

金運アップを願って自分のお財布を吊るしたりもするんだよ
You hang these up to wish for better luck with money.
紐で口を閉めているところが節約や貯蓄を表していて…
Using your mouth on the cord to close it up symbolizes frugality and saving up...

ん？どうしたみんな一斉に…
Hmm? Why is everyone all...
（長門せんぱい）
（長門せんぱーい）
(Nagato-senpai!

（大人気…！）
(I'm so popular...!)
戦艦の燃費は必要経費だから！
A battleship's fuel cost is a necessary expense!

ーーー

千羽鶴
Paper Crane String

病気じゃないのに千羽鶴折るんですか？
We're making a paper crane string even though nobody is sick?
千羽鶴は元々長寿を折るものだからねー
It was originally about wishing for longevity, actually.

七夕飾りでは家の長老の歳の数だけ折って飾るんだけど…
As a Tanabata decoration, just the oldest member of the household would fold and hang it up...
鎮守府で一番年上なのって…
The oldest one here would be...
進水日なら金剛先輩じゃない？
Based off launch date, wouldn't that be Kongou-senpai?

確か金剛先輩が進水した年が…
Come to think of it, since she launched, it's been...

ひゃく…
A hundred...
（多い…）
(Woah...)
ひとりひとつ折ってそれまとめよう！　ね！
Let's make one each and pool them together! Okay!?
Note: Kongou was constructed in 1913...

紙衣
Paper Garment

この龍驤先輩が持ってるやつみたいなのなんですかー？
What's this thing that looks like what Ryuujou-senpai carries around?
駆逐艦　初霜
Destroyer Hatsushimo
確かに似てる…
It does look similar, but...

これは神様の着物で裁縫が上手になって着るものに困らないようにって願いをかけるんだよ
That's meant to represent a god's clothing and is used to wish to improve at sewing so there are no problems with clothing.
駆逐艦　若葉
Destroyer Wakaba

着るものに困らないようにかー
So there are no problems with clothing...

ならば我々は中破・大破しないようにだな…
So it's about not getting to moderate-to-heavy damage for us, huh.
お洋服着られなくなっちゃうもんねー
We lose our clothing then, after all.
艦娘ならではの新解釈…！
A new interpretation just for ship girls...!

ーーー

屑籠
Waste Basket

最後は屑籠ね
Last are waste baskets.
どうやって作るんですか？
How do you make them?

（投網）（屑籠）
(Casting Net) (Waste Basket)
真ん中を吊るす投網を逆さまにして飾りを作る時に出た紙の切れ端を入れるの
You invert the casting nets and put the paper scraps inside of them.

これは物を粗末にしない整理整頓をするという意味が…
This has the meaning of not wasting things and keeping things tidy...

すみません今すぐ部屋片付けますすみません
Sorry, I'll clean up our room now, I'm sorry
（部屋が片付きますように　片付きますように…）
(Please let the room be cleaned, be cleaned...
伊勢と日向の部屋の様子はコミックス2巻で！「宣伝」
Learn about their room in volume 2! (Advertisement)

ほおずき
Lantern Plant (Physalis Alkekengi)

七夕の日ってほおずき市の日でもありますよね
Tanabata is also on the same the day as the annual lantern plant fair in Sensouji.
（ほおずき市）
(Lantern Plant Fair)
いまから買って飾っておけば丁度お盆の時期に色づくからね
If we buy and decorate one now, it should bloom just in time for O-Bon.

ほおずきといえば
Speaking of lantern plants,
駆逐艦　文月
Destroyer Fumizuki
地方では「ふづき」と呼ばれていてほおずきが咲く「文月」が「ふづき」になったとも言われてるそうよ
The people there calls them "fuzuki" which blooms in July (Fumizuki).

じゃあ　ほおずきは文月ちゃんの花だね
So the lanterns are Fumizuki-chan's flowers, huh.
駆逐艦　皐月
Destroyer Satsuki
明日はみんなでほおずきを買いに行くか…！
Let's go buy some tomorrow!
それは名案だ！
That's a good idea!
駆逐艦　菊月、長月
Destroyers Kikuzuki, Nagatsuki

ーーー

七夕そうめん
Tanabata Soumen

お夕飯は七夕そうめんですよー
We're having Tanabata soumen for dinner!
給糧艦　間宮
Supply Ship Mamiya
夜空を見ながら食べましょうね
Let's eat while watching the night sky.

どうして七夕にそうめんを食べるんですか？
Why do we eat soumen noodles on Tanabata?
七夕に食べる中国のお菓子「索餅」が日本ではそうめんになったんだけど…
A Chinese pastry called sakubei used to be eaten on Tanabata, but that has since been changed to soumen...
Note: Sakubei is produced by adding rice powder to flour and twisting them like a rope

そうめんを織り糸に見立てて機織が上手になりますようにとか
Perhaps it's because it looks similar to weaving strands.
天の川に見立てて食べきることで愛が成就するよう…
It also resembles the Milky Way, so you can eat it wishing that your love will be realized...

（恋愛成）
(Love Success)
突然現れた金剛先輩がものすごい勢いでそうめんを食べつくしてますーっ！
Kongou-senpai suddenly appeared and is eating with terrifying vigor!

翌朝
The Next Morning

笹飾りって最後に海や川に流すんですよね？
You let the bamboo wash away in the ocean or river at the end, right?
そうなんだけど…
That's right, but...
海に！？
In the ocean!?

この扶桑笹飾りとしての任務をまっとういたします！
This is a suitable mission for the bamboo Fusou!
（艤装はもったいないので外しました）
(I took off my rigging since it would be a waste)
は！？
Huh!?

離して！私は立派な笹飾りとして…！
Let me go! I will go as a wonderful bamboo decoration...!
最近は海が汚れるとかいろいろあって流すのはダメだから！流さないから！
The ocean has been polluted recently among other things, so we're not doing to do it!

…そうなの？
...Really?
そうなの！
Really!
笹飾りは鎮守府の規則に従って処分し短冊はお焚き上げしましした
The bamboo was disposed according to base regulations and the paper strips were burned.

いや…もう近くまで来てくれてるから迎えに行くだけ…
Not quite...it's already pretty close, so we're just going to meet them.

ビスマルク級超弩級戦艦のネームシップビスマルクよ！
I'm the nameship of the Bismarck class of super dreadnaught battleships, Bismark!
戦艦　Bismarck
Battleship Bismarck

増えてる！
There's more of them!
駆逐艦　深雪、初雪、白雪、吹雪
Destroyers Miyuki, Hatsuyuki, Shirayuki, Fubuki

鎮守府に着任したのってレーベちゃんだけじゃなかったっけ？
You weren't the only one to be assigned here?
ふたりは遅れてこっちに来てたんだよ
These two were delayed, so they arrived later.

マックスは割りとすぐに会えたんだけど…
I found Max pretty soon, but...
ビスマルクにはてこずらさせられたわね…
Bismarck gave us a hard time...
（私が悪いみたいじゃない）
(It's sounding like it's my fault)

噂に聞いたことしかなかったから何度か見逃してたんだけどね
We only knew her through hearsay, so we kept missing her.
頭を知らない人を探すのって案外難しいわね
It's unexpectedly hard to look for someone without knowing their face.
私は何度が手を振ったりしたのよ？
I was waving my hand, you know?
名前しか知らなかったの！？
You only knew her name!?

クラス

レーベちゃんたちのZってどういう意味なの？
What does the "Z" stand for?
駆逐艦っていう意味の「Zerstorer」の頭文字と計画順番号だよ
It's the first letter of Zerstorer, or destroyer, with the project number at the end.
Note: The Z1 class had boiler problems and revisions made it all the way to a Z5 class.
私たちの第三十●号駆逐艦って名前みたいな感じかな？
So it's something like our Destroyer No.30 names?

他にも1934型って言い方もあるわ
It was also called the 1934-class.
そっちは特I型…？
Like our Type-I class...?
なんだか似てるようで似てないねー
It's hard to say, really.

あッ　あと一番艦の僕にちなんでマース・クラスって呼ばれることもあるよ
Oh, and it was also called the Maas class after me.
それは吹雪型と同じだねー
Sounds just like the Fubuki class.
マース・クラス…
Maas class...

デース・クラス…
Dess class... (Pfft)
戦艦　金剛
Battleship Kongou
深雪ちゃん？
Miyuki-chan?

姉妹
Sisters

レーベちゃんが一番艦ってことはお姉さんなんだ
Since you're the first ship, that makes you the older sister, huh.
そうだよ！僕のほうがちょっとだけお姉さんなんだ！
That's right! Just by a bit!

マックスのほうがお姉さんっぽいよな
Max seems more like one though, right?
（代表的なお姉さんのイメージ）
(Representative older sister image)
幼い姉は珍しい…？
Guess immature older sisters are rare...?

筑摩よ！鎮守府に外国の艦があるぞ！
Behold, Chikuma! There are foreign ships at the base!
（利根）
(Tone)
人を指差しちゃだめですよ利根姉さん
Tone-neesan, it's not good to point at others.
（筑摩）
(Chikuma)
ホントクマー！いんたぁなしょなるクマー！
It's true, kuma! How international, kuma!
（クマー）
(Bear)
おい！大声出すなって！
Hey! Don't yell!
（キソー）
(Kiso)
Note: 木曾だキソ. Kuma goes kuma, Kiso goes kiso.

そうでもないね…
Guess not...
（多数？居たわ）
(There's a bunch)
うん…
Yeah...

改二
Second Revision

レーベちゃんたちって改二になれるんだ！
Wow, you all have second revisions!
みたいだね
Looks that way.

でも　これ　なんて読むんだ…？ぜッと…
But, um, how do you read this...? Ze...
ツヴァイよ
It's zwei.
（数字の２）
(It's how you say "two")

ツヴァイ！
Zwei!

ツヴァイなりたいねー！
I want to become a zwei!
ツヴァイ…素敵な響き…
Zwei...such a wonderful sound...
改二よりツヴァイだな！ツヴァイ！
Sounds way better than "kai ni"! Zwei!
レーベちゃんたちの国の言葉はなんだかとってもカッコいいです
Their country's language is really cool for some reason.

カッコいい
Cool

私の名前はなんていうの？
What would my name be?
えーと…吹雪はSchneesturm（シュネーシュトゥルム）かな
Hmm..."Fubuki"(blizzard) would be "Schneesturm".
かっこいい！
Cool!
軽巡洋艦　天龍
Light Cruiser Tenryuu

じゃあオレは？
How about me?
天龍さんは地名だからなあ…Himmeldrache（ヒンメルドラッヘ）とか？
Given the characters in your name (sky dragon),something like..."Himmeldrache"?
めちゃくちゃかっこいいじゃねぇか！
Woah, that's super awesome!

ちなみに眼帯はAugenbinde（アウゲンビンデ）で
By the way, "eyepatch" would be "augenbinde",
剣はSchwert（シュベーレト）って言うんですよ
And we call swords schwerts.

天龍ちゃんが急にキラキラしてるんだけど何かあったの…？
Did something happen? Tenryuu-chan suddenly started shining...
軽巡洋艦　龍田
Light Cruiser Tatsuta
レーベちゃんたちの国の言葉は戦意高揚効果もあるみたいですね…
It looks like their country's language has the affect of raising fighting spirit...

きらい
Hate

そういえばマックスの自己紹介ちゃんと聞いてなかったよな
Come to think of it, we haven't heard your self-introduction yet.
ちゃんと名乗ったけど…？
I'm pretty sure I said my name...
挨拶だけじゃなくて自分の説明をする…
It's also a time to explain a bit about yourself...

えっと…Z1型三番艦マックス・シュルツ　レーベとともに戦ったことがある方の名からいただいたの
Well...I'm the third ship of the Z1 class, Max Schultz. My name came from someone who fought alongside Leberecht.
新型タービンは難しい子だけどシフト配置が自慢ね…
My new model turbine may cause problems, but my shaft horsepower is what I'm known for...

あと…機雷は嫌いかしら…
And...I hate mines...
Note: It's a pun. They're spelled the same way. Z3 sank to British mines.
あれってあっちで一般的なギャグなのなか…
I wonder if that's a popular joke over there...
（はち先輩も言ってよね）
(Hachi-senpai said that, too)
（機雷なんてダイキライ！）
(I hate mines!)
潜水艦　伊8
Submarine I-8
どうなんだろ…
I wonder...

あの姉妹
Those Sisters

ちょっといいかしら…
Could I have a moment, please?
姉さまに何かご用でしょうか？
Do you need something from Nee-sama?
お願いがあるのだけれど…
I have a request, if that's alright...
戦艦　扶桑、山城
Battleships Fusou, Yamashiro

姉さまになんてことを！
How dare you!
いいのよ　山城　お望みであればどうぞどうぞ
It's alright, Yamashiro. If you have a request, please let me know.
本当に！？Danke!
Really!? Danke!

写真で見た時から気になってたけどすごいブリッジね！クールだわ！
I've been interested in it ever since I saw the pictures, but that's an amazing bridge! How cool!
（本当に倒れないわ！）
(It really doesn't fall!)
姉様パゴダマストに触るなんて…）
(How dare she touch Nee-sama's pagoda mast...!)
扶桑先輩たちの艦橋は海外でも人気だそうです
Looks like their bridges are even popular overseas.

What's that?
お酒を飲む器ですよ
That's something to drink sake from.
（おちょこです）
(A sake cup)
これが？こんなに小さいのに？
This? But it's so small.
ビスマルクさんたちの国ではもっと大きいんですか？
Are they larger in your country?

私の国ではこれが標準サイズよ！
This is the standard size where we come from!
でか！
It's huge!
これを何枚も飲むの！2倍や5倍のサイズもあるのよ
You can drink as much as you want from these! There are even double and quintuple sized versions.

なんて良い国…！
What a wonderful country...!

(Revised in clothing only)

芸者さんってアイドルなのかな…
Do geishas count as idols...?
歌や踊りで人を楽しませるとこは同じだからいいんじゃないかな…
They sing, dance, and entertain, so why not...?

猫
Cat

あら　かわいい猫！
Oh, what a cute cat!

ねぇ　この子私の部屋で飼ってもいい？
Hey, is it alright if I keep it in my room?
ペット禁止という決まりはないのでいいんじゃないでしょうか…
We don't have a ban on pets, so I guess it's alright...
じゃあ決まり！あなたの名前はオスカーね！
Very well! Your name is Oskar!
Note: Also known as Unsinkable Sam, there was a cat said to have survived three ship sinkings before living out the rest of its life in the United Kingdom. Bismarck was the first victim.

それじゃあ行きま…
Well then, I'll be o-

この後もなぜかやたら穴に落ちて
Afterwards, holes would start popping up at random,
ビスマルクさんのお部屋に行くのに大変苦労しました
And it was very difficult to return to her room.

数日後
Several Days Later

深雪ちゃーん　初雪ちゃーん　お昼食べに行こー
Miyuki-chan, Hatsuyuki-chan! Let's go have lunch!

はーい…
Kay...

あれ？深雪ちゃんは？
Huh? Where's Miyuki-chan?
レーベちゃんたちのとこに行ってる…
They went over to Leber-chan's place...
また？
Again?

なんか話が合う？んだって
She said they're on the same wavelength or something...
そうなんだ…
I see...
（なんか申し訳ないね…）
(I'm feeling kind of sorry now...)
Note: Like Miyuki, they sank before the Pacific War started.

ちょっ！そんな格好で艤装と制服どうしたの！？
Woah! What are you doing like this without your rigging and uniform!?
うう…
Urgh...

暑さで溶けてアレになったから私はもう訓練には行けない…
I'd melt and become like that because of the heat, so I can't train...
そんなネタ仕込む余裕があるなら訓練行けるでしょ！
If you're able to make a joke like that, you should be able to go!

今日の訓練は
Today's Training is...

しかし　こう暑いと訓練もかなりキツそうだね…
With this heat, training is going to be pretty tough, too...
（えー　今日はー）
(So, for today...)
そうだねー…

水上訓練の予定でしたが気温が高く日差しも強いためみなさんの健康を鑑みて…
We planned to have some water surface training, but the temperature's high and the sun's strong, so in the interest of everyone's health...
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise
あの　服装って…
Hey, that outfit means...
うん…
Yeah...

海に入って遊び…　方が一のための水泳訓練とします！
Having fun in the sea...as swimming training sounds like a better idea!
やっぱり！
Thought so!

水着
Swimsuit

水着を持っていないのですが　制服のまま入るんですか？
I didn't bring a swimsuit with me, so should I just go in with my uniform?
実際は服のまま泳ぐほうが訓練にはなるけどいきなりは大変だから
Realistically, swimming with your uniform on would be more like training, but doing it all of a sudden is a bit problematic, so...

提督にお願いしてみんなのぶんの水着を用意してもらいました！
I asked the admiral and he prepared swimsuits for everyone!
提督が用意する水着って…
The kind of swimsuit the admiral would provide would be...
もしかして…
Don't tell me...

これが提督指定の水着です！
These are the uniforms provided by the admiral!
（キブフ）

やっぱり！

顔浸けないと一番乗りじゃなくない？
If you don't do that, you won't be the first, you know?
（夕立ちゃんに先越されちゃうよ）
(Yuudachi-chan's going to take it)
うっ…

顔を浸けるのは少し勇気が必要です

みんなはこの練習しないほうがいいんじゃないかな…
Maybe it's best if you don't practice this...
（浮いて泳げればいいんだし）
(You can just swim while floating)

日焼け止めこれオススメだよ！

潜らないなら帽子！帽子かぶっとけ！
If you're not diving, use a hat! Try it on!
Tシャツ着たほうがいいよ…
Wearing a shirt would be better...

そんなに過保護にしなくても…
You don't have to be that protective...

大規模作戦前に無駄遣いはだめ！
No wasting things before a large-scale operation!
それに１０も話し終わるころには就寝時間になるでしょ
And besides, after ten stories, it would already be your bedtimes.
戦艦　日向

あと　ろうそくを使うなら狭い部屋じゃなくて談話室で
Also, the candles are meant to be a lounge rather than a small room.

戦艦寮になにかいるのかもしれないね…
Maybe there is something at the battleship dorms...

I was sleeping next to the wall, but some sounds in the middle of the night woke me up...
そしたら…
And then...

壁の向こうからドン…ドン…って何かがぶつかる音と
I could hear something thumping on the other side of the wall.

「呪われた潜水艦」どっちがいい？
Or "The Cursed Submarine", which would you like?
Note: UB-65. Girder accident during construction killing two, three workers died from diesel fumes prior to launch, one person went missing after being swept away, it sank to the bottom after a ballast tank fracture, and there was a torpedo explosion right before its first sortie.

天龍先輩と龍田先輩が休暇をとっているのは知っているか…？
Did you know about Tenryuu-senpai and Tatsuta-senpai taking a day off...?
駆逐艦　菊月
Destroyer Kikuzuki
たしか　おふたりで３日合旅行に行ってくるって言ってたような？
Yeah, they said there were going on a three day trip, right?

先週　天龍先輩が駆逐艦寮をうろうろしているのを見かけたんだ…
Last week, I saw Tenryuu-senpai loitering around the destroyer dorms...
軽巡洋艦　天龍
Light Cruiser Tenryuu

天龍先輩は大きな黒い袋を担いでいて何をしているのか聞くと…
I asked what she was doing with the big black sack over her shoulder...

「夏は大量にとれるからな！」って笑ってたんだ…
She laughed and said, "You can get a lot of them in the summer!"
イヤアアアアア
Ahhhhh!
自分で話しててもぞわっとするな…
Even talking about that gave me shivers...

第52話

来週　進水式カッコカリを行います！
Next week, we'll be having your launching ceremonies (provisional)!
戦艦　伊勢
Battleship Ise

へー進水式カッコカリだって
A provisional launching ceremony, huh...
何やるんだろうねー
I wonder what we'll be doing.
カッコカリだし　仮だけど進水する…？
It's provisional, but we'll still launch?
なんだそれ（まんまじゃん）
I don't get it (It's the same thing).
駆逐艦　深雪、初雪、白雪、吹雪
Destroyers Miyuki, Hatsuyuki, Shirayuki, Fubuki

（なんだろねー）
(What will we do?)
（ねー）
(Yeah)
（気になる）
(I'm curious)
（ねー）
(Yeah)

えーーーーッ？！
Wait, whaaat?!
（むらくも　いそなみ）
Murakumo Isonami)

ーーー

事情
Circumstances

進水式ってアレですよね海に出ますよー的な
So a launching ceremony means heading out into the water, right?
（今回やるのはカッコカリだけど）
(Though this time it's provisional)
そう！
Right!

ということは仮だけど出撃できるようになるんですよね
So that means we'd be able to sortie despite it being provisional...
そうそう！
Yeah!

そもそもカッコカリとはいえなぜ　こんな中途半端な時期に…
But why are we doing this when we're not finished...
いやーそれがね…
Well, you know...

今度の大規模作戦で戦力の拡充をしないとなーって提督が言ったら
The admiral said we have to increase our battle capabilities for the upcoming large scale operation,
上が鎮守府の艦娘たちに手伝ってもらえばいいじゃないって…
And the higher ups said to just use the shipgirls here...
軽いなー…
How casual...

準備
Preparations

というわけで！
With that said!
進水式カッコカリに向けて準備をしなければなりません！
Proper preparations have to be made for the provisional launching ceremony!

私たちの場合は命名も艤装も終わってますけど何を準備するんですか？
But our christening and fitting-out are already finished, so what is there to do?
旗とか垂れ幕とかじゃないの？
Maybe something like a flag or hanging banner?
それもあるけど…
Those would work, but...

今回は絵葉書を作ります！
For now, we'll be making postcards!
絵葉書って進水記念のですか…？
Postcards to commemorate the launching...?

そう！
Yeah!
進水記念絵葉書って艦娘が作るんだ…！
Wait, the shipgirls make their own launching commemorative postcards...?

ーーー

カード？
Card?

どういうのを作ればいいんですか？
How should we make them?
そうだねーいろいろあるけど…
Let's see, there's a wide variety of them...

艦の写真や完成予想図の絵だったり
Like a photograph of the ship or their finished blueprints,
名前から連想するモチーフをデザインしたりとかかなぁ
Or something like a design associated with the ship's name.

私たちの写真…
Our photographs, huh...

自己紹介的に得意なこととか書いたら楽しそうだよね
So it's like a self-introduction where we show off our strong points.
（成績の数値とか）
(Like our performance grades)
じゃあ深雪スペシャルって書こ！
Then I'll write a Miyuki Special!
それ絵葉書から脱線し始めてるから！
That's starting to stray off from the postcard's point!

雪景色
Snowy Landscape

伊勢先輩の絵葉書はどんなのだったんですか？
What was your postcard like?
えーと　いくつかあるんだけど昔作ったやつは艦と伊勢神宮の絵だったかな…
Um, there were a few of them, but the one I made had the ship and a picture of the Grand Shrine at Ise...

そっか　名前が地名由来だと風景が描けるんですね
I see, so place used as the origin of the name is drawn as the scenery.
私たちは天候や自然現象だから結構難しいね
Since our names are about weather and natural phenomena, that's pretty hard to do.

私だったら吹雪の中を進む絵とかかなあ
Maybe I'll do one of me going through a snowstorm.
（南にしか行ったことないけど）
(Even though I only went south)
私は艦に真っ白な雪が積もってる感じ…？
Maybe I'll make one with the ship covered in snow?
山がうっすら白くなってるとか…
A mountain lightly covered in white...

「深雪」はこうだな！
"Miyuki" would be this!
（真っ白！）
(Completely White!)
たしかに深く降り積もった雪！
That's some deep snow, alright!

ーーー

吹雪風
Blizzard Style

（艤装は重いので外しました）
(Took off her rigging since it was heavy)
さっきのイメージで描いてみようっと
Let's draw the image I thought up.

できた！
Finished!
（吹雪　がんばります）
(Fubuki, doing her best)

（ゆきかぜ　しずみません）
(Yukikaze cannot sink)
雪風もできました！
Yukikaze's done, too!

かぶってるー！
They're overlapping!
駆逐艦　雪風
Destroyer Yukikaze

モチーフ
Motif

陽炎ちゃんたちも悩んでるみたいだなあ
Looks like Kagerou-chan's group is having trouble, too.
駆逐艦　不知火、陽炎
Destroyers Shiranui, Kagerou

駆逐艦　黒潮
Destroyer Kuroshio
って黒潮ちゃん悩みすぎだよ！？
...And Kuroshio-chan is having too much!

全然思いつかへんから昔のやつ参考にしようと思ったんやけど…
I couldn't think of anything, so I thought about using some older works as reference...

荒々しい鰹の一本釣り漁の絵やねん…
And it was some rough art about pole-fishing tuna...
鰹は踊る黒潮に！
Dancing fish along the Kuroshio Current!

ーーー

涼風
Refreshing Breeze

自分の名前から連想するものなあ…
Something associated with our names...
駆逐艦　五月雨、涼風
Destroyers Samidare, Suzukaze
わたしは紫陽花と雨とかかなぁ
Maybe I'll draw some hydrangea and rain.

涼風…涼風…うーん…
Suzukaze...a refreshing breeze...hmm...
涼風ちゃんは絵にするの難しそうだね
Must be hard to put your name into art.

閃いたっ！
I've got it!

これでどうでいっ！
How's this!?
そうなんだけど…そうじゃないというか…
Well...I'm not too sure...

既存のデザイン
Existing Designs

私は朝焼けの海とかかしら
Maybe I'll have the sunrise over the sea.
駆逐艦　雷、暁
Destroyer Ikazuchi, Akatsuki
私はカッコいい雷を描くわ！
I'll draw some cool-looking lighting!

でも電とかぶっちゃうか…
But that would conflict with Inazuma's...
大丈夫なのです！
It's alright!
駆逐艦　電
Destroyer Inazuma

電にはこのデザインがあるのです！
Inazuma already has this design!
私も…
Me, too...
駆逐艦　響
Destroyer Hibiki

ズルい！
How unfair!

ーーー

なんだかんだで
One Thing or Another

みんな　印刷終わった？
Is everyone finished printing?
（はーい！）
(Yes!)

伊勢先輩
Ise-senpai
何？
Yes?

これって誰に配るんですか？
Who are we giving these too?
私たちの進水式って一般公開しないですよね…
Our launching ceremonies won't be open to the public, right?
はっ！
Oh!

それは考えてなかった…
I hadn't thought of that...
えーー？！
What!?

誰に渡す？
Give it to who?

とりあえず全員分をファイルして提督に渡すとして…
For the time being, let's file them all away and give them to the admiral...
あとはお世話になってる人とかに上げればいいんじゃない？
And I guess it would be fine to give it to people you're grateful to?

お世話になってる人って…
People we're grateful to...
間宮さんとか？
Like Mamiya-san?
長門先輩に渡そうかなー
Maybe I'll give one to Nagato-senpai.
でも一番最初は…
But the first person is...

記念絵葉書もらってください！
Please take our commemorative postcards!
伊勢先輩！
Ise-senpai!

なっ…なんなのさ～
Y-...you guys~
意外と涙もろい伊勢先輩でした
Ise-senpai is unexpectedly quick to cry

第53話

そろそろ始めるから集まってー
We're starting soon, so line up!
戦艦　伊勢、日向
Battleships Ise, Hyuuga
はいっ！
Yes!
駆逐艦　吹雪
Destroyer Fubuki

あれ？
Huh?

あの…司令官さんはいらっしゃらないんですか？
Um...is the commander not coming?
いやー今朝はすごく張り切ってたんだけど…
Well, he was really excited about it this morning...

大規模作戦の会議だって上に呼び出されてしまって…
But he was called by the higher-ups to attend a meeting about the large-scale operation...
進水式カッコカリはウチらが勝手にやってるから上は知らないんだよね
They don't know anything about our provisional launching ceremony since we're doing it on our own, after all.
そうなんですか…
I see...
（ざんねんです）
(That's too bad)

ーーー

修祓
Blessing

じゃあ始めるねー幸運艦よろしく！
Alright, let's begin. Off to you, lucky ship!
（幸運艦言うな）
(Don't call me that)
正規空母　瑞鶴
Aircraft Carrier Zuikaku

え…えーと…
So...err...
みんなに…幸？…あれ…
May everyone be...happy? ...Huh...

私こういうの苦手なんだけど！誰か他に…
I'm not good at this sort of thing! Someone switch with...
（ふそう　むつ　たいほう　しょうかく）
(Fusou Mutsu Taihou Shoukaku

…やっぱり私がやるわ…
...I'll do it, after all...

命名
Christening

命名は済んでるから形式だけになるけど　みんなの名前を呼ぶから返事してね
Since you all have already been christened, just answer when you hear your name.
（はーい）
(Okay!)

特型駆逐艦吹雪型一番艦　駆逐艦吹雪
First ship of the special-type Fubuki-class, destroyer Fubuki.
はいっ
Here!
同二番艦　駆逐艦　白雪
Likewise, the second ship, destroyer Shirayuki.
はいっ
Here!
駆逐艦　白雪
Destroyer Shirayuki

なんか卒業式っぽい…！
It's like a graduation ceremony...!
進水式カッコカリです
It's a provisional launching ceremony.

ーーー

除幕
Unveiling

次は餅を撒くから集合してくれ
We're throwing the mochi next, so gather around.
戦艦　長門
Battleship Nagato
（はーい）
(Okay!)
……

除幕はなしかー
No unveiling, huh.
別に体に名前は書いてないんだからやる必要ないでしょう
It's not really necessary since their names aren't written their bodies.

いい案だったと思うんだけどなー
And here I thought it was a good idea...

スク水除幕式
School Swimsuit Unveiling
水着のままで進水させられるわけないでしょ…
It's not like we're going to launch them in swimsuits...

撒餅
Mochi Throwing

（※おもちはラップでう巻いてあるので後で艦娘がおいしくいただきます）
(The mochi are wrapped up, so the girls can eat them afterwards)
では　撒くぞ！
Alright, I'm starting!

そーれっ
And go!

こらーっ！空母ども～っ！
Hey, you carriers!
ていうか私たちの進水式なのに私たちがお餅拾っていいのかな…
Come to think of it, it is alright to take the mochi for our own launching ceremony...?
さあ…
Who knows?

ーーー

支綱切断
Rope Cutting

じゃあ順番に進水の準備してー
Alright, start preparing for the launching coming next.
（はーい）
(Okay!)

ってこれなんですかーっ！？
Wait, what is this!?

え？支えてる綱
Huh? It's a support rope.
それは見ればわかります！
I can tell by looking!

この斧で切って進水させるんだよー
You'll be launched after cutting it with this axe.
（ひとり１本ずつあるから後で記念にあげるね）
(We have one for each of you, so we'll give it in commemoration afterwards)
この姿勢でですか！？
From this position!?

支綱切断２
Rope Cutting 2

綱はともかく後ろ向きはなんとかならないんでうか
Putting aside the rope, why do we have to turn around?
（度胸試しじゃないんですから）
(It's not like it's some test of courage)
えーでも
Well, you see...

あんなふうに前向きで進水すると…
If you launching facing forward...
（本当にやるの？）
(You sure about this?
（大丈夫です！）
(It'll be fine!)
駆逐艦　島風
Destroyer Shimakaze

島風一番乗り…
Shimakaze, heading out fi-

いいいいやアアアアアアアアアアアア！
WAAAAHHHHHHH!
勢いつきすぎてああなるよ
The excess force would cause something like this.
後ろ向きでお願いします！
I'm fine facing backwards!

ーーー

支綱切断３
Rope Cutting 3

それじゃあ…
Here we go...
ちょっと待ってください！
Wait a moment!

もー今度は何？
Come on, what is it now?
この瓶はなんですか！？
What's with this bottle!?

この綱を切ると連動して瓶が落ちてすねあたりにぶつかるんだよ
It's linked so that it'll hit against you when I cut the rope.
根性試し！？
Is this some sort of will-power test!?

支綱切断４
Rope Cutting 4

カッコカリでもゲン担ぎをね
We'd still need to follow the superstitions even if it's just provisional.
ゲン…ですか？
Superstitions...?

船体に叩きつけに瓶が割れないとその船は不幸になると言われているから
They say that if the bottle doesn't break along a ship's hull, the ship will become unlucky.
そうなんですか…
I see...

まぁ　さすがに本物の酒瓶は怪我しちゃうから…
Well, since using the real thing would hurt...
（これ持ってて）
(Hold this)

いたくない（らしい）飴細工の瓶と水風船　どっちがいい？
Would you rather have the (probably) painless candy bottle or the water balloon?
（らしいってなんですからしいって！）
(What do you mean by "probably"!?
水風船でお願いします！
The water balloon, please!

ーーー

整列
Lining-up

全員進水したー？
Has everyone launched?
（はーい）
(Yes!)
んじゃ　隊ごとにざっくり整列してー
Alright, then line up in your groups.
軽巡指示よろしくー
We'll leave the rest to your designated light cruiser.

頑張ります！
We'll do our Best!

じゃあ　締めのひと言お願いするわね
Alright, please give us some closing words.
私ですか！？
From me!?
よっ　世界中を驚愕させた特型駆逐艦一番艦！
Go for it, first ship of the Special-type destroyers that shocked the world!

ええと…
Um...
私たちは実戦経験もほとんどなく先輩方のお役に立てるのか不安な部分がたくさんあります
We don't have much real battle experience, and there are many things we're worried about if we'll be able to help out our seniors,

でも駆逐艦として自分たちの役目を精一杯務めることでみなさんのお役に立ちたいです！
But we'll serve our roles as destroyers the best we can to help everybody out!

特型駆逐艦吹雪型一番艦　吹雪以下全駆逐艦一生懸命がんばります！
First ship of the special-class destroyers, Fubuki, and all us destroyers will do our very best!

それはだな…
Well, that's...

このように同時に2方向へ出撃するのだ！
Where we sortie at the same time in two directions like this!
（本土）
(Mainland)
つまり片方の作戦にしか参加できないんですか？
So you can only participate in one of them?
そうなるな！
That's how it goes!

どっちに出撃するんだろう…
I wonder which one we're going in...
うーん…
Hmm...
駆逐艦　白雪

大和先輩達と一緒なら後方待機なんじゃないかなあ…
If we're with them, we'd probably be waiting in the rear...

駆逐艦　響、暁
Destroyers Hibiki, Akatsuki
そうだね…
I guess...

せっかく用意したのにもったいなかったな…
What a shame, I even prepared...

親ばかだなあ…
Aren't you the protective parent...

なんだよ！チビ相手に戦えるわけねーじゃねーか！ふっざけるな！

ゼロ…オイテケ…！
Give me...zero...!

ゼロって零式艦戦のことでしょうか…？
Would that be the Type-0 planes...?
多分そうやろうね　（手にも持っとるし）
Probably. (We're carrying them)
でも　装備を渡すわけには…
But it's not like we can just hand them over...

…ところで　ゼロで何するのん？
...By the way, what are you doing to do with them?
ン…
Mm...

ヒコーキゴッコ…
Playing planes...
おもちゃに！？
As toys!?

零式
Type-0

ゼロはあげられへんけどお姉ちゃんが特別に
I can't give you a Zero, but Big Sister will give you something special:
今だいブームの「妖怪が出てくるお札　零式」をあげるわ！
A "Type-0 talisman that summons spirits" that's all the rage now!

ヨウカイ…ゼロ…？
Spirits...Zero?
せやでー！この零式持って艦載機飛ばすときみたく気合入れてみ！
Yeah! Hold it and concentrate like you're going to launch planes!

ン…！
Nmph...!

これどない？
How about this?
ホシイ！
Want it!

作戦成功？
Operation Success?

烈風はあげられへんけどこの紙人形あげるわ
I can't give you a reppu, but you can have this paper doll instead.
がんばって烈風にするんやで？
Try your best to make it a reppu, alright!
ガンバル…！
Try my best...!

渡してしまって大丈夫なのか？
Was it alright to just give it over?
ウチらと飛ばし方違うし　そもそもあれだけじゃ無理やから
We launch planes differently, and you can't do it with just that anyway.
そうなのか…
I see...

あれに夢中になっとるうちにMI作戦も終わるやろうし
We'll be able to finish the MI operation while she's distracted like this.
何にせよ北方棲姫の無力化成功やで！
At any rate, we made the Northern Princess powerless, so it's a success!

いいのかなあ
I wonder if it's alright...
こうして無事AL作戦は成功？しました
And so the AL operation was a sound success(?).
