    [Kantai Collection] Distinctive silhouette

    Based on the introduction of Ryuujou from Kantai Collection, and one moment from Lucky Star, shows Ryuujou's pride of her body.

    Contrary to fanbase, Ryuujou is actually proud of her distinctive silhouette.

    Fans tends to exaggerate the traits of most characters. Whether for good or bad I'll leave that up to you. Fanon Ashigara for one is often portrayed as a hopeless Christmas Cake whereas her canon self has hardly any mention of it in her lines.

    Suetake's Ashigara is somewhat more close to the canon Ashigara than what fans most usually portray her as.

    Also, Gachi Lesbot Ooi.

    The anime was kind of damning in regards to popular opinion of certain characters though. Not that I like the fact, but it unquestionably gave fans plenty to take and run away with.

    If the next upcoming animation is of the same caliber, then expect to see even more fans pinning character traits.

    Eh, the first series canonized the Akagi, Ashigara, Hiei, Nagamon and Ooi memes. I don't see why they wouldn't run with fanon interpretations of Tenryuu and other characters who show up in the second series, whether or not they appeared in the first (super perv Iku, boozehound Hibiki, troll-zilla Tatsuta/KTKM, etc.)

    I thought super perv Iku is straight-out canon, judging by her lines. Iku is coooooming and all.

    Now that I think about it, I know what I want to see the most...

    An actual, flesh-and-blood TTK in command.

    Doesn't matter if it's Admiral Bottom, a psychopath Tankboy admiral, animal Admirals, shipgirl admirals, kuso TTKs, etc., or even T-Head admirals; as long as there's AN Admiral around who actually interacts with the shipgirls.
