>In the Autumn of 2014 | a new member joined the Nishimura Fleet.
>Yama
>Yamagumoooooo!
>[5th Ship of the Asashio Class, Asagumo]
>Where are you Yamagumo~
>There she goes all "Yamagumo Yamagumo" like...if the person isn't here, there's no point calling for someone that ain't there.  |  How creepy...
>Ehhhh?!
>[What...]
>[Back when Fusou hadn't come to the Naval District]
 >[WHere is Onee-sama]
 >[That's how] [it was.]
>But once Yamagumo is here, the Nishimura fleet will finally be all together!

>Don't use the name of the Nishimura Fleet so flippantly | Only Onee-sama and I can use it, alright?
>It's fine, Yamashiro
 >Thankfully, Submarines are the only abyssals that penetrate into the Naval District Waters. | Even Destroyers can go.
>It's just that we only have TWO WEEKS to find Yamagumo...
 >Two weeks is enough! Just leave it to me!
>As you are, Asagumo, there's not a chance in hell we're putting you in.
>You've barely even gotten here.
>It's just a bunch of subs, watch me send 'em belly up in front of you! | If I don't go, Yamagumo will definitely be too shy to show up!
>You will be a good girl and stay at base!
 >Mm...?  This map....
 >Only four ships at most can sortie | well then | who among us will sortie?

>Why...
 >What kind of formatino is this?!
>[2nd Ship of the Fusou Class, Yamashiro Kai]
 >[1st Ship of the Mogami Class, Mogami Kai]
>Ehhh, even me~
>[3rd Ship of the Asashio Class, Michishio Kai]
 >[5th Ship of the Asashio Class, Asagumo]
 >[*note: Since the equipment slots have been crammed with Zuiun, Sonar and Depth Charge launchers, all the main guns were removed.]
 >Onee-samaaaaaa, that kind of place doesn't suit me!
>The flagship of the Nishimura fleet is you, Yamashiro.
 >Nobody is better suited.
>Michishio, Asagumo | I hope we'll see your sister soon.
 >Just leave it ot me!
>I will definitely bring Yamagumo's cute face back for you to see, so you just wait for us!

>Wait for me, Yamagumo
>[From here on out, we'll be forever together!]
>Sortieing!

>Is Asagumo not ready yet?
>She'll be out in a few minutes.
>But thank goodness
>Since it's a DD, the docking time is rather short...
>It's not good at all!
 >It's because of that child that we keep retreating and retreating!  |  how many times have we retreated from the first node because she got taiha'd?
 >Enough is enough!
>That's why i hate her.

>That kind of low-leveled, childish character!
>What is the commander thinking?
>To take an untrained newbie | and then throw her into a search and rescue unit.
>Thanks to her we haven't even managed to get a drop at all, nevermind the drop we want.
>I don't care about whether she was part of the Nishimura fleet | I don't want to take care of Asagumo any more than necessary!
>Shut up!!
 >If we're talking destroyers, Shigure's clearly better.  |  You guys are thinking the same thing, right?
>I didn't...
>Agreed!
>At this point, I--

>Don't want to have to carry Asagumo around!
>I can hear you all, idiots!
 >[Given that it's not like the Nishimura Fleet were particularly amazing friends]
 >[and we don't have a single happy memory]
 >[I'm the one]
 >That's sick of being dragged along by you all...
>You want me to look for Yamagumo?
 >Yeah... | Let's not ask Asagumo anymore...

>Shigure, you've already upgraded to Kai II | Among the destroyers, your abilities and luck are both quite high.
>Moreover, you've served extensively in the large operations with good results. | So this time, as well,
>I'd like to ask you to join us.
 >She'll refuse, of course, but no matter what...
. >Thank you,
>I'm so happy that you see me so positively!
 >N-not like that! | I was just appraising you in terms of your combat performance and abilities...
>It's because you're interested in me that you took all that time to read up on me, right? | I'm really happy!
 >That's why I said it's...it's not like that!
 >Although I hate serving alongside Asagumo....
>But if this girl starts to think that she and i have something going on....
>Just kill me!

>Idiot! Idiot! Harrumph~!!!
>[Uwahhhh]
>I ain't asking you for shit!
>Onee-sama | I really can't stand this fleet anymore.
>Asagumo's level is too high so she keeps getting taiha'd | I don't know how many times we've retreated.
>Everyone's reaching the limits of their patience.
 >Please allow Shigure to replace Asagumo!
 >If this is done, it'll be much easier to get S-ranks | and the chances to obtain Yamagumo will also increase.
>Moreover.... | compared to me, maybe it's better that Onee-sama be the one to lead everyone....
>Yamashiro
 >These days that go by in this naval district aren't particularly harsh. | Once you're properly trained, doing your own job is quite easy.
>And we're allowed to choose people we get along with and sortie as a group.
>This was inherently a good thing, but...

>This situation cannot continue as is.
>Even an unseasoned child such as Asagumo | will one day be forced to fight on the field of battle.
>When that time comes, what then shall we do?
>I  hope that there will always be people, no matter the circumstances, who will be willing to stand by their comrades;
 >Who will help everybody to work together and fulfill the tasks before them.
>And I am convinced that Yamashiro will be that leader.

>Not a single hit?!  What are you doing?!
>Aim!
>Are you even aware that you're hlding us back?!
 >If you're going to look for Yamagumo, then do it right and | Asagumo!
 >[Why is Michishio-nee like this?]
 >[Be a little...kinder!]
>I did my best!  |  But this is all I can do!
 >[sigh]

>[Ahhh....it always feels like this...]
>This can't go on like this...
>>There's no way we can look in this weather...
>Lucky, it's divine providence!
>...Uwahh, what the hell was I thinking...
>Mogami, could you join our meeting?
>Ahh, mmm....
 >Due to the heavy rain, our search today is hereby suspended.
>Until further notice
>The Search for Yamagumo is suspended indefinitely.

>That's unacceptable! Are you abandoning Yamagumo?!
>It's just a temporary suspension, we're not giving up.
>RIght now we're going to reflect on our failings.
>As things are right now, we have no chance of success. | I'm sure everyone has realized this?
>Everyone here....
>doesn't seem to want to see Yamagumo.
>I didn't say anything like that!
>We have no time. We can't rest, even for a day. | This kind of thing...
>Yamagumo or not, | it doesn't matter to you, huh?

>Doesn't matter my ass!
 >Whether it be Yamagumo or you, you're both my important sisters!
>[For Michishio-nee, it clearly doesn't matter.]
>[Whether it be Yamagumo]
 >[or me.]
  >Hands off!  You two argue as soon as you're together.
>Both of you, calm down.
 >Asagumo, sleep in Shigure's room.  |  You hear?
>Here, a pillow.
>Is there anything else you're missing?
>Nothing...I'm fine.

>Michishio-nee....
 >why does she love to bully me?
 >If it were me I would definitely love and cherish my younger sister!
>I wouldn't be a big jerk like Michishio-nee!
 >Michishio's a good girl.
>Huuuh?! What about that jerk is good?
 >That ill-tempered grounchy windbag!
>She is very harsh on you, | but she is also quite harsh on herself.
>Easy on herself and harsh on others is mroe like it.
>It's not like that.
>Every shipgirl here | is an experienced veteran who has gone through harsh training.
 >If you can't be harsh on yourself | you won't be able to live on like this.

>[Really...is she just trying to say I'm not harsh enough on myself?]
>In that case...
>Am I a bad child...?
>I believe that you
>are a good child.
>We should be rushing to find Yamagumo...
 >And yet we're just resting...
>Goya's Torpedo-san is reaaaal smart Dechi!
>[Exercise area | Unauthorized Personnel Forbidden]

>Michishio-nee--!!
>You jerks!
>Ouch!
>Ganging up on someone!
 >That's just underhanded!
 >[Kill the submarines...]
 >Throwing rocks are forbidden! [That's against the rules!]
 >Anyway,

 >It was Michishio who asked us to spar with her.
 >[Eh...?!]
 >Asagumo, you...
>The suspension of the Yamagumo Search Operation
>Doesn't mean you can just laze around all day!
>[So...Michishio-nee was training on her own.]
 >If you want to beat subs, | set up your equipment and come!
>[Even though she's already so much stronger than me....]
>I--...
>Don't actually know how to use my ASW equipment!
 >If you don't know how to use someone, look at someone else for reference.
>You should have said something like that from the beginning! Go to hell!
>Wouldn't you be angry if I said it?
 >Yes, I'm fucking pissed!
>I knew ittt
 >[I'm at fault as well, to treat my own younger sister like that...]
>Right, I'll go and teach you.  Put your rigging on.

>I...want to be as strong as Michishio-nee!
>Don't expect me to gentle hold your hand all the way!
>I hate being gentle! (note: we can tell)
 >I know... | It's fine if you're not gentle.
>But
>I want to be closer with Michishio-nee!
>Well I don't want you to be!
>[Fusou nee-sama]

>Fusou, a letter for you.
>Who wrote it?
>[Dear my beloved elder sister, Fusou][Please forgive me. Unfortunately, I will be going on ahead.][Yamashiro]
 >[W...]What am I going to do.... I....should go to be with Yamashiro, right...
>She's on suicide watch!  |  If we don't find Yamashiro soon...!
>If we're talking about Yamashiro, she's at the factory...?
 >[Suicide...]
 >[Scrapping...]
 >Yamashiro!!

>Onee-sama...?
 >Yamashiro...
 >[Kai II?!]
>Why'd you write that letter!
>You gave me the wrong impression!
 >Well....the Kai II's changes are rather subtle... | so doesn't this mean that I am forever burdened with this misfortune...?  [So I got scared and...]
>I'm stronger than ever over here too!
>You only just got remodeled...
 >Everyone's so cool...they've all gotten stronger
. >In comparison, I...

>Mogami...?
>December 31st, New Year's Eve
>What'cha doin', Hyuuga?
>I wanted to add a special Zuiun into my New Year's Money (note: Otoshidama) Envelope (note: the envelope has its own unique name, Pochibukuro).
 >A special...
>is that the Zuiun 12A?
 >[Could there be a Zuiun][I don't know about?!]
 >Hm?  Don'y know about it?  |  It's new equipment included in the Yamashiro Kai II
>The Nishimura Fleet's currently at 1-5 looking for Yamagumo-chan!
>A new model, huh...
 >Mogami probably wouldn't like my standard model Zuiun...

>Lookie lookie!  |  The New Year's greetings came in the mail!
>There's New Year's Money/Otoshidama!
>This kind of Otoshidama/New Year's Money is a little unusual.
>[THe fuck is this]
>[Ah, Zuiun, ehhh....]
>What the hell is Hyuuga doing...
>[Here ya go~!]
>It says it's for you.
>For me?
>[Oh!]
>[Ka-type Observation Autogyro]
 >Isn't that great?

>Let's work hard together again!
 >[Thank you, Hyuuga onee-san]
 >Mm!
>Hyuuga-dono, do you know where I left my Ka-type?
>[lol I unno]
 >It's your own fault for not keeping on eye on your beloved plane.
 >Yamashiro and company once more began their search oepration. | Now they could reliably get S-ranks.
>But that alone | does not guarantee that Yamagumo is obtained.
 >The battle went on until the last day.

>We did it! Perfect Victory!
>[But...we're out of time.]
>[If we don't get her this time...]
 >[It'll be--...]
>Nobody's here....
>Could it be... | that the Naval District is out of berths?
>We definitely made sure that wasn't the case before we sortied!
 >[That's true...if it was so easy to meet her, we wouldn't...]
 >Hmph!  I don't care anymore!  |  Yamagumo or whatever, I don't care!

>Now is not yet the time to give up! | Let's look for her elsewhere! (note: didn't she always drop from 2-5?)
 >We can't go anywhere else with this fleet composition.
>This is our unit's last battle | we've gone together down this road until now...
>[I want to look for her with everybody!]
 >There's no way anything would be so easy! | Quit bawling!
 >The hell
>Michishio-nee, aren't you crying too?!
 >Crying my ass!  [I'm sweating from my eyes!]
 >And here i thought Michishio-nee was that kind of bloodless, tearless...oww!
 >I'll beat your ass!
>[Ahhh,] it's already at this point....
>Yamashiro!  If you don't stop them fast...

>No way...if even Yamashiro starts crying...| Stop...at this rate...
>I'm also...
>going to tear up...
>Uu~mmmm | Par~don me, y'all~ while you're all busy and all~
>I'm the 6th Ship of the Asashio class | Yamagumo~
 >[Ara~~] Somehow, I'm feeling a little nostalgic~
 >[Yama]

>[Yamagumo-!!]
>>Umm~....
>I finally managed to meet everyone after all this time desu~ | To think that all these problems came up~....
>Well, it's nothing bad.
>After all, from here on out--

>[Everyone's finally all together once more!]
