Kantai Collection - Game Introduction

Have you heard about Kantai Collection (艦隊これくしょん) ? Today, i will be introducing the free-to-play browser game that is all-rage in Japan.

 

Kitakami, my ace Torpedo Cruiser (CLT) Ship.

Developed by Kadokawa, Kancolle was released in 23 April 2013 on DMM website. The game was originally intended limited for 10.000 IN JAPAN. However, the game gained popularity with the combined usage of Cute warships (Yes, those girls in the game are Warships.) and Popular VA (Voice Actors) and went Viral. As a result, Kancolle currently have 2.8 millions user registered. As a side note, Foreigners outside japan are actually banned to access the DMM website, however they are not actually banned from the game itself. My next post is about 'How to Register', so stay sharp!

My Commando I Fleet - Kitakami Kai, Hyuuga Kai, Kongou Kai, Akagi Kai, Yuudachi Kai, and Chikuma Kai.

So what's the main attention of the game? Well actually if you wanna take my own opinion, what makes me to keep playing is the Kanmusu (艦むす, Fleet Girls).They're based on actual ships that took part in World War II, and a part of Imperial Japanese Navy. However, the bigger catch was the 'Seiyuus' or Voice Actors that really popular such as Ayane Sakura, Nao Touyama, Rina Hidaka, Uesaka Sumire, Risa Taneda, Yuka Iguchi and many more, and all voiced at least 8 different Kanmusus each person!

Night Battle

The gameplay is kinda simplistic. You take a role of an Admiral (提督 teitoku), Assemble your Kanmusus into a fleet and sortie them on a mission to defeat the enemy, which is known as 'Abyssal'. There have been speculations about the true nature of the Abyssal, whether they are based from the actual allied warships or if they're former kanmusus that were sunk. However, there was really no official information about Abyssal. So who are they? You have your own answer.


There you go, guys. I'll update soon when i want to.

Truly Yours,
