>Oh!
>Didn't we arrange to have a swim meet with the neighboring kindergarten?
>Don't tell me you forgot.
>It completely slipped my mind!
>What are we doing at a swim meet?
>Uhhhh--
>If you're going to the pool, then why not hold a pool party?  (literally: 开游戏会 - hold a games meet)
>Eh

>Isn't it already autumn?
>But don't the shipgirls enjoy swimming every day?
>Given, we don't feel cold whether it's autumn or winter....
>But why are we suddenly goign to the pool?
>Well, think about it.  When you think of school activities, the swimming pool comes to mind.  Likewise, when you think of swimming, the school comes to mind!
>And yet, until now, the pool still hasn't appeared!
>We definitely have to satisfy our readers a little with a swimsuit issue!
>Admiral, you just want to see swimsutis, don't you...

>You sure are a shameless piece of trash...
>I, also, wanted to bring up this issue with you all!
>Ara, Zuihou-sensei and....
>Taigei Sensei?
>I can't believe you still remember me!  Yes, I'm the submarine tender Taigei!
 >You two know each other?
>We're acquaintances.  She works at the second kindergarten.
>That's right!
>I was undergoing repairs for some time, but now I'm mroe ready than ever!  But because I was once a sub tender, I'm still working at the Second Kindergarten.

>At any rate, regarding our playdate (literally: 游园会 - party), our side's kids...
>Everyone, what games do you want to play with the neighboring kindergarteners?
>Swi-mming--!
>So...
>Is that so...
>Well in that case it can't be helped!
>Principal, please don't smile that broadly.
>Of course!  Principal, you'll diligently wait in the office, correct?
>Y...yes, of course!

>The day of the Playdate
>It's a great sunny day!
>With how rarely we come over to swim, it's a blessing to be able to do it under a clear sky.
>So the naval district had this kind of swimming pool.
>Ehh-- >You didn't know before?
>Because the second Kindergarten's swimming classes aren't quite as uncommon as usual, we usually go to the beach...
>Well, I suppose that's true...
>[so that's...how it is...]

>Are the Submarines really good at Submarining?  (Literally: really good at submerging?)
>That's right!  In something as shallow as a pool we'll dive to the bottom in no time!
>That's amazing Dess!  I want to see Dess!
>I'm submerging then!
>Arehhh...Submerging...?
>Gotta watch carefully!
>Slow!

>Hiyoi!
>So fast!  That child's speed is super fast!
>Shimakaze-chan is amazing!
>That's not quite right.  Rather...
>It's the Rensouhou who are really amazing!
>[Diagram/Explanation]

>Hacchan's book...
>Is it alright even if it's wet?
>Oh, this?
>All I have to do are a few adjustments...
>There we go.
>Uwaaahhh--so cool!  A kickboard--!
>[What the heck is this...--]
>Cool, right?

>You're not gonig to swim?
 >Ah, Akagi-sensei
>This child was left here by the Army...But she's a bit of a landlubber (Literally dry duckling, used to describe someone who can't swim)...she doesn't swim.
>Sensei...sorry...I'm just a big burden...
 >Ara ara... don't worry about it.  Everyone has something they're not good at.

>Maruyu, let's go play ball, alright?
>Akitsu Maru-chan!
>You're not alone, Maruyu, I'll play with you!
>Thank you! Akitsu Maru-chan!
>Thsoe two get along very well, don't they.
>Althoguh both of them have some strange characteristics, those two have a good balance.

>Sensei--!
>What is it?
>Sendai-chan disappeared.
 >She probably fell asleep somewhere?
>I just saw her sleeping by the poolside...
>look, there she is.
>Oh!
 >I wonder what happened such that she ended up in this situation...

>I'm coming!
>I won't lose!
>Ha--!!
>Aaahh?!
>Ah, sorry, desu!

>To hit that far away...impressive Dess!
>My torpedos are Japan's best!
>[Note: The author's footnote is that I-19 brought down two American ships with torpedos from 11km and 12km, respectively, during the battle of the Solomon Islands)
>Ah!
>Ah!
>Ah, I-It wasn't intentional, desu!  It's because my water gun's range is too high...
>[Historical FOotnote: due to the extremely long range of the Type 93 Oxygen Torpedo, there was a case in battle where the torpedo missed the enemy vessel and entered Japanese naval waters, sinking an allied (As in Japanese, not the Allies) supply vessel]

>Sensei!
>Ara, what is it?
>I crashed into someone while swimming...
>My goggles got broken.
>Ara...hang on, I'll bring it back to the office and see if I can fix it.
>Let me see that!  I'm here to help you fixit!

>Can you fix it?
>Mmm...at this level it won't be much of a fuss.
>Where did she pull all those tools from...
>Here!  As good as new!
>Ohh--!
>I also gave you a rangefinder and radar!
>Amazing--!  [I can see forever!  (Literally Uooohhhhhhhh)]

>Ah, so you were all here after all!
>401!
>Just got back?
 >Mm!  Classes ended a little early today.  This looks great!  They're all playing in teh pool!
>Your friend?
 >[Hi!]

>She's my apprentice/protege (assistant / kouhai may be appropriate as well). In the future, she'll be a teacher here at the second kindergarten.
>I'm I-401, pleased to meet you!
>I heard from Houshou-sensei that you guys were all going to have a swim meet, and it was really interesting so I came to see!
>...Now that you're here, want to join in as wel?
>Eh?  I can?

>No seriously, she can?
>Of course, it's just a swim meet.  It's only fun when everyone's playing together, right?
>Come and play, 401-sensei!
>Yeah!
>I'm coming over now!

>Repair Ship - Akashi - Akashi-chan loves arts and crafts! If she sees something broken, she'll fix it up right!
>2nd Ship of the J3 Class Submarines - I-8 - Hachi's book can turn into a kickboard!  The contents of hte book are rather hard to understand.
>3rd Ship of the B1-class Submarines - I-19 - I-19 has recently taken to wearing three ponytails!  Because of her early chest development, her swimsuit is rather tight.
>3rd ship of the B1-mk. 2 class Submarines - I-58 - The ornament on her hair was given by her mother.  She really loves it and always wears it.
>1st Ship of the Kaidai-class submarines - I-168 - loves submerging!  But sometimes takes in water while submerging.  For to the submarine sisters this is a common occurence.  Scary!
>Special Model I-400-class Submarine Carrier - I-401 - Energetic and active second-year college student 401 Onee-san is working hard to be an excellent teacher!

>Standard Carrier, 1st Ship of the Akagi-class - Akagi - Akagi-sensei's swimsuit seems to be a little tighter than last year's.
>Standard Carrier, 1st Ship of the Kaga-class - Kaga - Kaga-sensei got a little light-headed when she saw Akagi-sensei in a swimsuit.  Very dangerous.
>Light Carrier, 1st Ship of the Ryuuhou-class - Ryuuhou - Ryuuhou-sensei, until recently, was still a submarine-tender  Whale?  What are you talking about?
>Light Carrier, 1st Ship of the Shouhou Class - Shouhou | Light Carrier, 2nd Ship of the Shouhou-class - Zuihou - Shouhou-sensei was in great condition because she didn't have to wear so many clothes!  It seems like Zuihou-sensei can still fit into her elementary-school swimsuit!
>Special Hei-class - Akitsu Maru - Akitsu-maru Chan is like Maruyu's guardian
>Type 3 Transport Submarine - Maruyu - Will the unsubmergable submarine Maruyu become a problem for the fleet...?  It seems like she and Akitsu-maru temporarily transferred from the Army's kindergarten.
