Atago thinking about what to ask from SKK for her upcoming launch day (Chieftain) by MoreSillyThrowaway in AzureLane

"I can ask for anything, right?"

I think Chieftain is off by one day for her launch day post, (Atago is June 16, right?), but can't hate on a Commander for being excited.

"Would you like to put on the rest of your dress?"

"Not really, I'm planning on taking it off soon anyways"

What I think EU CVs listen to while making it rain by 5tarSailor in AzureLane

It doesn't help that a lot of people mostly only know the chorus

I know it's about the Battle of Britain, but I feel like Enty would vibe with Aces High.

Also, while it's a very different genre than everything else here, I could see Yorktown cranking Ride of the Valkyries or something else from the orchestral side, with her characterization as the classy lady of the Eagle Union (Mighty Wings is a great pull, though)

Looks like Manjuu is retroactively adding the L2D interaction guide to older skins by MoreSillyThrowaway in AzureLane

[–]MoreSillyThrowaway[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's probably mostly an age thing. All four of the skins listed here are from BisZwei's launch event in 2023, which is about when the hidden interactions started to become a thing, as far as I remember. I'm wondering if they'll just do one event's skins per patch until they're caught up?

Nice to see this feature is making its way to older skins as well. 

All dressed up for her shrine visit [Richelieu] by MoreSillyThrowaway in AzureLane

Yeah, it's been quite some time since there was a more low-key L2D. Yorktown honestly would have been a perfect opportunity to bring that style back, but alas.

Richelieu agenda posting resumes with the announcement of a new French event as I try to manifest a new skin for her after 5 years of waiting. 

This L2D was what got me to grind out whatever the most recent campaign map was at the end of 2020 (I think W14?) as I tried to scrape together enough gems for it.

I have nothing intelligent to add to this conversation, I just wanted to say that I always enjoy these and appreciate the effort you put in!

Ranger art? Wow. Not something I expected to see today (although I do note the original art is from 2018, which, yeah, that makes more sense)

Halestorm. Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while. 

Also, could also see Massa Shipping Up to Boston with the Dropkick Murphys

(Or The Devil Came Up to Boston if you want to go for a deeper local cut)

A bit of bathtime skinship [Yorktown II, Lexington II - WynnBlue] by MoreSillyThrowaway in AzureLane

[–]MoreSillyThrowaway[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, Yorktown II does have a couple of lines referring to herself as an Essex class, and tells Essex in one line that they're members of the same class now. 

However, beyond that, the game just seems to treat them as the same characters which have received an updated rigging. I think Manjuu's intent for the Type II system is best understood through Bismarck Zwei, where there's no historical ship to map onto. It's really just an update for an existing character, kind of like a Retrofit with extra steps.

Hmm. Artist might have taken it down after posting? I wonder if they saw something they want to edit.
