Kantai Evangelion Ep.2
Ibuki Maya, or, Ibuki "Maya" enters the show.
She seems to admire Akagi Ritsuko.....NOT.
(Extra Notes)
I just Googled it, apparently there was a carrier named "Ibuki" designed and constructed during the Pacific War, but the construction was cancelled before they finish and she was eventually scraped after the war. If she was finished and made her appearance in the game, then I bet this connection between Ibuki and Akagi will look vastly different.
