Wow Zuikaku tsundere toward Kaga is canon O_O

Go go Zuikaku. Akagi in this anime is reserved to Bucky, so you have free reign here

No no, why stick to a pair when you can have a threesome love triangle?

In Zuikaku's lines, she sends an attack squadron into the admiral's office after being groped multiple times, while her sister simply allows the admiral to play with her skirt while laughing nervously. Plus her marriage lines are totally dere.

So yes, Zuikaku IS tsundere. Besides her physical design says it all, twintails and a flight deck chest.

More Zuikaga cuteness.

she has a bump, the flight deck goes to ryuujou and zuihou still

So far the only carriers to show up are the ones that use bows and arrows. The others that use scroll decks and paper have not shown up yet. Might be a design choice to keep the audiance from asking even more questions.

cloud04 · 2015-02-20, 15:26

Those are light carriers though

Ithekro · 2015-02-20, 15:43

Shouhou-class uses a bow. As does Houshou, and Ryuuhou.

The scroll users are Ryuujou, Unryuu-class, and Hiyou-class.

Chitose-class is even more odd as the seem to use puppet airplanes.

Taihou uses a crossbow, so that might fit in as a more advanced carrier.

SaintessHeart · 2015-02-21, 01:18

Note the difference in the bows. Akagi, Kaga, Shouhou and even Souryuu all use standard bows. But the cranes use Hankyu, a Japanese halfbow.

Chitose-class are Taoist sorcerers. They animate the paper planes.

- You know, I would think that having flat flight deck would give them more of an advantage in using a bow...

Ithekro · 2015-02-21, 01:40

Which is why it is odd that Ryuujou doesn't have a bow.

wavehawk · 2015-02-21, 01:59

Seriously speaking, one of the traits of of the mythical Amazon women as that they cut off one of their breasts in order to be able to fire a bow and arrow more quickly and smoothly. Granted, the way Japanese Archery (Kyuudo) is done is a bit different from the western method (The bow is normally raised above your head and brought down to aim, as opposed to being drawn straight at chest level in western archery), so it's probably much less of a concern.

All the carriers were drawn by different artists initially, right? Could just be the artist doing a different take with the Chitose-class.

cloud04 · 2015-02-21, 02:04

they still should be in reference to what the actual ship was

Estavali · 2015-02-21, 02:18

Going through the artist list, I think this may really be a case of artist's preferences =3. Shibafu (1st & 2nd CarDiv, Houshou) goes for daikyu with noticeable joints while Konishi (5th CarDiv, Zuihou) drew shorter ones. All the onmyouji & puppeteers come from Kuurokuro and bob, whose only carrier was Shouhou, used an unconventional design for her bow =3

same goes for the unryuu class due to artist?

Yup, Unryuu and Amagi, and even Akitsu Maru, are Kuurokuo's work =3

CQB also exist in the past - shortbows allow easy maneuver in a town or during a siegebreak; after scaling a ladder bows and arrows can provide fire support from high cover at the top of the wall on the poor buggers in the courtyard.

On horse archers it is a much better technique. It allows the horse archer to pick off mobile targets (NCOs, cavalry lancers, etc) where infantry would be pained to kill.

I noticed that all the carriers wear chest protectors. So they are safe from self-injury by their bowstrings.
