I have no idea who is this character and her sprite file is literally named "unknown6".

So...I'm not the only one that thought this lass was from Kancolle at first right?

What is she doing? female masturbation?

Fuck♂️you

This clip has been circulating the past few weeks with AI-voiced Momoi dubbed over saying "NIGA" in rapid succession.

What a cute girl, I hope she isn't talking about callsign 02 of C&C...

I wonder what the other girl is saying...

My shining beam of light

This has to be AI, right? There's no way the fingers being that f-ed up is intentional xD

The right thumb and index finger look a bit too small but otherwise it looks fine? If you mean the one finger growing seemingly in a random direction, It's the left index finger poking out between the right middle and ring fingers.

This artwork is referencing the scene where Sanji talks about the "All blue" for the first time.

COME, BREAK ME DOWN
BURY ME, BURY ME
I AM FINISHED WITH YOU

The voice sounds familiar, is it U-official's VA?

U-official's VA is LilyPichu. So, not the voice of this clip which is InvaderVie

If I were to level one criticism against this guy, it's that he let the enemy vessels get too close. He had a speed advantage over every enemy vessel with the possible exception of Spence and his radars also gave a pretty decisive detection advantage. If he had conducted a fighting retreat, he would have forced the enemy to spread out to chase him down and while Spence might have been able to catch up, Mr. Sea Sparrow and Mr. Harpoon would not have been her friend. He also wouldn't have had to deal with Akagi's aircraft and Musashi simultaneously. Akagi-chan did seriously gimp her striking range when switching to the triple-flight deck loadout so after dealing with Spence and Akagi-chan's aircraft, he could have closed in and either knocked out Akagi-chan with numerous Harpoon strikes or blasted Musashi/FdG with multiple SAM shots to the bridge while staying out of gunnery range, depending on which unlucky sod he spotted first. Instead, he ended up facing all of them at once and paid the price for it.

This is mostly correct, except he and Amagi-chan didn't have the speed advantage. Believe it or not, the Yamato-class can outrun a Zumwalt or Arleigh Burke and that's without even cross-connecting boilers. Certainly the modern-day destroyers could easily out-maneuver Akagi-chan and company, but not outrun them.

It's completely reasonable to simply assume that modern-day destroyers are going to be faster than mid-century battleships and carriers, but that actually isn't the case. Not when it came to the Axis, anyway. They didn't have the access to resources that the Allies had; and the Japanese Empire knew that overtaking the Pacific would require placing a premium on the necessity of speed. Germany had a similar problem -- if they wanted to dominate the Atlantic, they had two choices: through the channel or around Scapa Flow. (If only Bismarck and Eugen sortied with Graf Zeppelin, what a different world we would exist in today.) The only way through or past these two deadly pylons at the time was speed. (Germany tried to disable the threat of Scapa Flow back in WWI. It didn't go well for Germany, but in all fairness, it didn't go all that well for the Royal Navy either. Warspite barely made it back to port from that one intact.)

These days it's not really all that necessary for any sort of ship to haul that much ass, even though America's carriers are (IIRC) quite capable of doing so. Destroyers aren't the up-close-and-personal vanguard they used to be, either.

He kind of was one. Unfamiliarity with old ships and their exact capabilities was forgivable, but he was too arrogant and too confident in tech advantage. This was a highly nonstandard situation and he failed to adapt due to his preconceptions. Simply too inflexible.

something something diesel-electric subs something something winning war games against nuclear carrier group something something

No, but for real -- it does crack me up the US lost 6 war games against sweden's diesel electric submarine

and oh yeah, 40 years ago it happened as well when the NRP Barracuda also defeated the USS Eisenhower.

Wait until you find out that during the interwar period, the US lost every wargame against Japan before 1935.

The question is what tactics was Amagi-chan using that seemed familiar?

That's purposefully ambiguous, because there's only so much detail I can impart through a 4-koma format. The important detail here is that whatever tactics were enacted, that Musashi recognized them but can't quite place where from.
