If they are trapped, than the reader might assume the Abyssal are allussions to the Japanese ships (if only in the Pacific), but there versions of certain boss types would start to resemble Allied ships lost in those event battles, rather than the Japanese ships. Allied shipgirl events might not be the same events the Japanese shipgirls are faced with, or the tale it different for them. A lot of Events in the game are allusions to battles. There are two sides to every battle. A winner and a loser. Though sometimes you can be both. (Win a battle, but fail the objective. Jutland is this. The Germans won that battle based on ships sunk, but lost the objective because they still could not sail freely of the Royal Navy blockade).

Allied events would be tragic for 1942, and into 1943 it there would still be some instances of loses, but by the allusions of 1944 and 1945, the Allied shipgirl numbers are such that tragic level events are rare. The only major one I can think of in 1944 was is actually a moment of heroism and an Allied victory (Samar). Taffy 3 was overwhelmed yet basically defeated the Central Force of the Japanese Navy just by shear deturmination, courage, and I suppose psycological warfare (hundreds of planes and destroyers that charged battleships would be enough to scare even an admiral. And is this case it was a Admiral that had lost his flagship earlier and didn't want to have another one sunk out from under him that day).

But if those Abyssal are to be Allied ships lost facing the Allied shipgirls. Yorktown would be the one at Midway. Arizona at Pearl. Prince of Wales and Repulse at Singapore. Four heavy Cruiser Hime at Savo. Destroyer Hime and Escort Carrier Oni and Destroyer Escort Oni at Leyte. And no torpedo cruisers.
If I were to make Fletcher-chan, research please ^_^
