I don't know English well, what's the pun on her name?

The artist said "unfortunately, we will never know" so there appears to be no canonical answer.

That said, it would be difficult to come up with a good pun for "Acheron". Alternatively, she is Star Rail's incarnation of Raiden Mei/Ei, which has more potential: "Raiden" -> "riding", which could be used for something benign (e.g. "riding the Star Rail") or some form of sexual reference (e.g. "riding deez nuts", cf. post #5614078).

I started playing this game for the story, nostalgic (for me) arcade shooter gameplay and amazingly designed enemies. The hot gacha women were just a cool side thing for me. However, this is the first skin that actually made me salivate. In my mouth. And opened my wallet.

I was definitely skeptical on a lot of the other $60 skins but I think they’ve figured out what skins the people really want and are probably willing to buy regardless of that $50/60 tag. I’m certain this will probably their most successful gacha skin

If you consider gacha rolls obtained in the pack you're paying closer to $40 for the skin, and around $20 for the 10 advanced gacha rolls and 15 ordinary gacha rolls. Does it still suck? Yeah, but it's not just the skin you get for the price.

If you converted the rolls to gems, then the price for those would be around $80... but I don't think most people are desperate enough to do that.

I thought this dance that Marie, Oshida, and Andou did in the OVA "Commander WAR" was pretty cute. :)

Of course, the tank dance at the end was cute as well. :D

Probably based on a canon 1D but thats just me

yeah thats definitely a Canon of some kind.
and yeah having the added battery grip makes a DSLR fucking huge

The Japanese Kancolle strategy wiki's page for Isonami includes a long digression on why Isonami's camera in this pic must be a Nikon rather than a Canon, basically because Nikon from its beginnings was a major manufacturer of optical equipment for the Imperial Japanese Navy, while Canon was much more affiliated with the Army (cue booing and hissing from IJN shipgirls). Said digression then digressed even further into the long postwar struggle between Nikon and Canon for SLR camera supremacy. Otakus will otaku, I guess.
