Yet, for most of the episode it was hard to tell there was a war going on. KanColle is initially set up as a bit of a war flick, to the point where our series starts with a recitation of the Gosei. What I found strange were the amount of conflicting dualities present from the get go. What we have is still basically an amalgam of Aoki Hagane no Appregio and STRIKE WITCHES. All that in itself is not exactly strange, by anime standards. Not only are these kanmusu possessed by WWII warships, they’re also thematically inspired by them, to the point where they’ll suffer looking like martians in order to do their ship cosplay.
The premise is pretty much as described in the preview, with kaiju the Abyssal fleet emerging from the depths to terrorise humanity, and water skiing heroines are the only ones to stop them. From the point of view of Passerby : The Casual Anime Watcher, this introductory episode was… somewhat of a strange beast. Preface: I know much less about World War II warships than I know about tanks, and have never played Kantai Collection: The Game so I walk into Kantai Collection: The Anime as one of the naïve audience.
