"Yang?" you ask, a bit confused. "That does not sound very American."

"A lot of us were sold off to the Republic of China after the war," Yang explains with a sigh. "Heng Yang was my new name. Used to be Samuel N. Moore."

"And you didn't want to have a guy's name?" Kongou grins.

Yang shrugs. "That, and it's bad luck to rename a ship. Though I suppose I turned out to be the lucky one after all: the others were all scrapped, sunk, or broken down for spare parts... which later went into me, of course."

That's... actually kind of horrifying. You're really not used to feeling that way about anything, but being repaired with pieces from your cannibalized sisters kind of warrants it.

"And you, Laffey?" Sara presses. "You're the one they said 'would not die', right?"

Laffey smiles. "Yeah! It's the reason I got to be a museum ship after the war, even though... well, all I ever really did was blast shore batteries."

"Those still shoot back at least," you point out. "And you are both okay with taking on this mission, instead of fighting the main battle?"

Yang nods with a sudden enthusiasm. "I've got my own body for once, not one cobbled together from the scraps of my sisters. We've all got a chance at a new life, and I'm not gonna let that chance slip away."

"Good," you tell them. "I look forward to seeing your performance." They exchange nervous smiles with each other before nodding back at you.

When you look up, you notice that your team have left your side: Sara is speaking with Lexington before the latter leaves. Kongou is leading her sisters in a rowdy cheer of some sort... looks energetic, if undignified. Even Prinzessin has found her "sisters", and is talking with them in German.

Mutsu stands by the waterfront, looking back at you. Though she's smiling, you can tell it's a sad smile.

You're not about to let your younger sister leave that easily. She seems relieved as you approach her at a pace that could only be described as "driven".

"Hey, sis..." she begins, only to have her words cut short as her eyes go wide.

You embrace her.

Not normally one for open shows of emotion, you allow yourself this moment of affection towards your dear sister. She seems stunned by it, before eventually returning the embrace just as warmly. The two of you share a tender moment together, not caring about any of the onlookers or what they might think: because for possibly the first time, you just don't give a damn.

"Jeez, sis. You're embarrassing me," she mutters as you hold her, though you can tell she's just saying that.

When you finally do separate, you do something that stuns her even more...

... you salute her.

It's another gesture you never use with Mutsu, ether in private or in public. It's something for accepting orders, or to be used between fellow officers. A salute is never something you use with your family. But this time, it feels appropriate.

She knows what it means, though her shock is readily apparent: you're treating her as not just family, but as a comrade. You're effectively passing the mantle of representing the Big Seven on to your little sister.

"You are ready," you tell her.

She salutes you back. "I'll see you later, Nagato."

And then she turns to leave. It's a good thing she's not looking back, it wouldn't do to have her see you cry. Yamato, however, spies you... and favors you with a knowing smile.

When you finally return to your destroyer escorts, you hear Yang talking to her sister in a low voice...

"Nagato can't be THAT bad. You're just freaking out."

In a sudden flash of insight, you know immediately what must be done.

"How much do you know about me?" you ask Yang.

"Ummm..." the girl frowns, caught off guard by your question. "You're one of the Big Seven?"

"Correct," you reply. "And how big?"

"Really big?" Laffey offers.

You nod at her. "Correct. My sister and I are so big and so powerful that just one of our turrets has a similar weight to a fully-loaded destroyer."

"How many turrets do you have?" Yang gulps.

"Four."

Moving quickly you snatch Yang up in your left arm, and lift Laffey with your right. Without your own support equipment your strength is still sufficient to hoist them both as they squeal in a mix of surprise and delight.

"This Nagato's guns will never be aimed at her friends," you reassure them. "Not ever."

"Now, are you my friends?"

Both girls start nodding immediately.

"Good."

Looking out over the departing shipgirls, you notice that Maryland is surrounded by American battleships... you think you see Arizona, Carolina, and California with her.

Nagato-chan isn't unusually threatening to other battleships.

>>38024506
Seems like we got a pretty quick consensus, so I'll start writing.

>>38024506
As you close in, it's not difficult to hear Carolina: the woman known throughout the fleets as the "Showboat" is notoriously outspoken.

“Whaddya mean you're not comin' with us?” Carolina demands in an undeniable southern twang. “What's more impornant than this?”

You see Maryland calmly explain in a few words that you and Yamato have a critical role to play in supporting the main fleet that unfortunately demands that she can't go into battle beside them.

Carolina seems set to shout something else, but Arizona puts a hand in front of her. The usually loud girl falls silent as Arizona says a few carefully-chosen words.

Maryland nods, and gives a short reply of her own that seems to stun Cal and Carolina. Ari simply nods grimly, offering a terse word or maybe two and extending her fist. After a moment's hesitation, Mary nods and pounds her sister's fist with her own before they all go their separate ways.

“She told me to kick ass,” Mary tells you as she looks over the two fully-armed destroyers nestled in your arms with an amused expression. “That your new battle plan, Nagato?”

>>38024924
This is mostly a planning/bookkeeping update. You'll have a series of choices for how to start the operation:

First is insertion strategy, which will in all cases assume a night operation:
>Air drop
>Amphibious strike
>Sneak in overland

Second is how aggressive you want to be:
>Scout first
>Move in quiet
>Move in with force

Third is how to split your teams
>Destroyers may move ahead as scouts
>Whole team moves together
>Split the group into three teams of two

Twenty minutes will be given, and I'll check back to see if something resembling a consensus was reached in that time.

>>38025114
It's the Kure Naval Arsenal: previously a WWII-era dockyard that produced ships like the Nagato. Now a facility there serves as the main research and development site for Kanmusu related technology.

Defenses are unknown, presumed to be effective to powerful. Exact layout is unknown.

>>38025046
>>Sneak in overland
>Scout first
>Split the group into three teams of two

>>38025046
>>38025217
In that case

>Sneak in overland
It seems like they'd sooner expect attacks from the Abyssals than attacks by land. It also offers more cover.

>Scout first

>Split the group into three teams of two
Sowing confusion and being mobile should benefit us, though I don't like making this decision before we've even scouted the base. I think grouping needs to be decided after we have more clear objectives.

>>38025217
>presumed to be effective to powerful

>>38025115

I guess I'll change that to destroyers scouting then

Do we have any equipment for producing smoke screens? Something like that would be pretty valuable I think.

We have an aircraft carrier with planes for scouting. I think the destroyers should be doing what they normally do, protecting the heavier ships from smaller targets.

Though I'm not sure how much that applies now with human bodies and everything.

>>38025330
Sounds good.

>>38025381
I'm not sure how well tiny planes will be able to scout or fight inside buildings though.

>>38025381
Adding to that, I don't even know if something like Kanmusu aircraft carrier planes would even be detected with normal radar.

>>38025411
In that context I meant scout as in doing a flyover of the base to try and understand where everything is and how to approach it.

>>38025381
I don't know if you've ever heard a radial engine that big, anon, but that shit's LOUD.

>>38025443

September 19th, 2053. 04:00 hours.

The area around Kure harbor has been largely abandoned since the rise in sea level accompanying the Abyssal attack. The outflow of people was further encouraged once the Arsenal was reactivated, of course. Now, it's a mostly submerged stretch of coast lined with the remains of abandoned buildings: a perfect place for you and your team to hide once the truck that carried you down from Aomori got close enough for you to ditch.

"I plan to split us into three teams," you announce. "Laffey, Yang, and Prinzessin will be one team. Sara and Mary will be the second. I will partner up with Kongou. Prinzessin?"

"Ma'am?" the German replies eagerly.

"You will take your team towards the Arsenal. Observe, but do not risk detection. Note defense distribution, weapons emplacements, and named buildings. Then return to this point, which I will be designating as Rally Point Zulu."

Prinz Eugen nods, her eyes betraying an unyielding determination. "Of course. Wait for us here."

At around 04:30, Prinzessin's team returns.

"Their defenses are... actually pretty poor," she announces. "There's an obvious blind spot on their perimeter to the north side, which is where the research labs are clustered."

"The fences are low, too," Laffey adds excitedly. "I hopped over it like three times."

"Indeed, it was almost impossible to get her to stop," Yang teases as her sister pouts.

Prinzessing coughs once to silence her younger teammates before continuing. "We determined there are three labs, and pinned One as their weapons lab. Two is where our sisters' spare bodies are being kept. Three is..."

She stops, suddenly unsure.

"Something's being done there. I get a bad feeling."

And then the third lab for obvious reasons.

Lab 2 is one of our key objectives though even if it isn't 'immediately useful.' In fact, the humans there might hold the spare bodies hostage or something if we don't secure it fast enough.

"The reason we are here is for our sisters," you remind everyone. "Mary, Prinzessin, I want you to secure lab Two. Kongou and I will investigate lab Three. Sara, I want you to hang back with Laffey and Yang. Keep her safe, you two. And Sara?"

"Yeah, Nagato?" she asks, clearly embarrassed that her aircraft-focused skillset has sidelined her for now.

"I will count on you to come at a moment's notice," you tell her. "When this battle begins in earnest, it will suddenly be an all or nothing affair."

"Count on me," Sara grips the handle of her crossbow tightly.

Your team of kanmusu glide swiftly and silently across the shallow waters in what used to be the small city of Kure. Prinzessin leads you along a safe route, past a museum you hear used to hold a 1:10 scale model of Yamato among other items of interest from your time. You chuckle darkly at the irony: Yamato's now fighting as a pretty young woman, while the model commemorating her death is probably underwater somewhere.

Finally, you reach the section of defenses your scouting team reported. Sure enough, there are two abandoned buildings on a slight rise near the fence line that obscure line of sight, allowing easy access to the base. Your 'skate'-like keeled shoes crunch the ground a little as you move towards the obstacle...

>>38026747
Though you make a louder thump than a destroyer would, it seems that you go unnoticed when you vault over the razorwire-topped fence. On impact you kick up a dust cloud that would definitely give you away if it were during the daylight hours.

Kongou, Prinzessin, and Maryland are right behind you, all landing with varied degrees of finesse. Predictably the cruiser is the best at this, while Kongou... is being true to herself, you figure.

Which is to say she botches the landing and has to bite her tongue to keep from cursing and alerting every guard in the place.

"Move quick," you order. "Keep in radio contact."

You take Kongou towards the mystery Lab, and take a quick look around the building. Two doors, from what you can tell: a side door, and a larger hangar door in the front. That's likely the business end of the building, while the side door is probably a delivery point.

There may also be a rooftop entrance, but that would require some degree of stealth...

You lead Kongou up to the side door, and try the handle.

"Locked," Kongou observes. "That's cute."

Without a word of explanation she fits the muzzle of one of her rifles over the doorknob, which has an electronic key pad, and pushes hard. The whole lock assembly fails, and ends up being pushed straight through the door.

"After you," Kongou offers with a small flourish as you reach an arm through and pull the door open.

Once inside, you make it about ten steps before being greeted by a familiar face...

>>38027307
It's Admiral Clarke's shitter of a son. And Kongou's not happy to see him.

With a snarl she rams a gun barrel into the man's crotch and pushes him into a wall with a thud. The younger Clarke's hands quickly go up in surrender, a look of terror evident in the coward's eyes.

"One word to security and you get to find out what it's like to have a naval rifle in your ass," she grins wickedly.

Clarke gives a nervous laugh. "But it's pointed at my crotch!"

"I know."

The look of dawning realization is priceless.

"Well," he sputters, "I'm kind of fond of you ladies, you know... I mean, yeah, I think you're great! I really admire you all!"

"Fine," you agree reluctantly. "But piss me off and there will be no body for your father to bury."

Clarke gulps hard, and leads you down a corridor. You can hear the man practically gasping for air the whole way, in a state of near panic at your sudden appearance. At a seemingly nondescript door in a darkened hallway, he swipes his access card and steps in.

It's a tight squeeze, but you fit your guns and armor through the door. Kongou comes after you.

Inside are two racks against a wall, with pale-skinned girls apparently asleep standing up. Over the left shoulder of each is a small-bore gun, and across their back is what looks to be a small multi-shot rocket launcher.

"This is our creation," he tells you. "A cheaper kanmusu based on the Littoral Combat Ship Coronado."

"Bullshit," Kongou spits. "You can't make a kanmusu out of a modern ship you daft Yank bastard. Their souls aren't old enough."

"Ah, yes,' Clarke explains, wringing his hands. "They're not quite as... "moody" as you all are. The navies of the world and the UN think their lack of individuality and repressed emotions will make them more effective weapons, you see. They can't deny an order, or think for themselves, really."

"This is wrong. All of it."

"This is what the militaries of the world demand," he counters.

"And what happens to us once these soulless imitations hit the market, hm?" Kongou presses, causing the Captain to back away.

"Well," he offers, "you do know me and my father, right? I can..."

"Protect us?" you snarl. "Is that what you were going to say? You wish to consign my sisters to death with one hand and have me feeding out of the palm of the other!?"

"I'd rather the Abyssals rip my bloody heart outta my chest and eat it," Kongou spits.

Before Clarke can reply, a klaxon goes off in the room... and your radio contact picks up a massive burst of static across all channels.

"What?" Clarke shouts. "No! I wasn't betraying you yet... we must be under attack!"

"Hold on a tic," Kongou demands, to no avail.

Behind Clarke the "fake" kanmusu stir in their electronic cradles.

"No! They've activated them in here? Oh God n-"

Captain Clarke's final word is lost amidst a deafening explosion as one of the girls behind him opens fire with her cannon. The blast shakes the whole room and sends dust and chunks of ceiling panel cascading like rain down onto you and Kongou.

The flash is tremendous, and when you can see again after a split second Clarke's head is gone. The shot hit Kongou in the forehead, drawing blood and leaving a nasty bruise over her eye before fragmenting and taking out the wall behind her.

"DAFUQ?" she shouts. "I'LL FUCKING CUT THAT BITCH!"

As you open fire on the false kanmusu in front of you, Kongou leaps into action herself.

"BURNING BODY CHECK!" she shouts as she crashes into you, spoiling your aim. Not severely enough that you don't still do any damage: quite the opposite. Your display of firepower fills the room with smoke and fire from the muzzle flash even as it rips the roof off the building and blasts out the side wall. Bits of concrete and rebar ricochet everywhere, raining from the sky like hail in a thunderstorm. It obscures your sight as you're pelted by fragments of building that do little actual damage, and the building's alarms fall silent.

Your radios still seem to be jammed.

When the dust begins to settle, you can see the two kanmusu you targeted are badly injured: one is unconscious on the floor, and the other is bleeding from her side in the corner.

"KONGOU!" you shout, furious at her intervention. "WHAT THE HELL!?"

"Just look at 'em, Nagato!" she shouts back. "Always check your targets!"

You humor her and look downrange... and your eyes widen.

The conscious kanmusu is clutching at her side, her own eyes wide in pain and fear as she tries and fails to push herself deeper into the corner. Further away from you.

She's terrified.

"If they can't feel, how come they looked so scared when they woke up?" Kongou asks, quieter now than before. "How is it this one stopped following her orders? It doesn't fit with what Clarke told us."

That's when you notice something new. On the terrified kanmusu's back is a broken piece of equipment. It looks suspiciously like...

"A radio," you mutter. "Kongou, is your radio jammed as well?"

She nods. "Yeah. Wait you don't think that's how they're controlling them?"

You nod. "It must be. If we hit that..."

"They may not have the will to fight us," Kongou finishes your thought.

"We need to find that transmitter," you tell Kongou. "But first, toss me Clarke's shirt. He no longer needs it."

You move your turrets so they're not pointed at the cornered kanmusu, and carefully approach her. Your hands go up as she starts, realizing that you're coming closer.

"I do not plan to hurt you again," you reassure her in as soft a voice as you can muster. A shirt lands on your shoulder, and you begin to tear it into strips. "Please see to the second one."

The kanmusu eyes you carefully as you kneel near her and reach out. She tries to keep you from moving her wrist, but you eventually pry her hand away from the wound to get a good look at it.

It looks horribly painful, but it will probably heal just fine. You press the makeshift bandage into her side, causing her to wince before you guide her hand back to the strips of cloth.

"We will come back for you," you promise. "I am sorry... you do not need to fear us anymore."

"How is she?" you ask Kongou as she rises from her patient's side.

"Clocked pretty good," she replies. "She'll wake up with a hell of a headache, but she'll be just fine. Yours?"

"She should live," you sigh. "Thank you."

"Don't mention it," Kongou replies.

When you reach the outside, you're confronted by a vision of Hell.

Normal soldiers don't stand much chance against Abyssal strafing attacks, and the defenders of Kure Arsenal are no different. They've died in droves, and most of their barracks and guard towers are now in flames. Bodies lie everywhere on the ripped-up tarmac as shells burst all around you.

"Glad you could make it!" Mary roars as she slides up next to you. "Before you say it, we've seen what came outta the house of horrors over there. They're engaging the Abyssal fleet out in the harbor."

Overhead aircraft, no doubt Sara's, engage in swirling dogfights with their Abyssal counterparts. Most seem too concerned with that to attack any other targets, though you can see that a massive curtain of anti-air is going up from where Sara, Laffey, and Yang are... WAY too much heat, even from those two's armament.

Prinzessin rolls up to meet you as well. "Our radios are jammed!" she shouts over the din. "Started right as the clones started attacking!"

You take a quick look around, spotting a revolving array on the roof of what looks to be a burning command structure. Fire teams are desperately trying to save the structure...

"That is our target," you announce, pointing right at the radio aerials. "That is how they are controlling their private fleet."

Ah, yeah, I forgot about the obvious it seems.

>>38030303
>>38030330
It's "jamming" due to simply being a WAY higher output across the same band that Kanmusu equipment is set to use: which is different from most other civilian and military-use frequencies so that nobody overhears you by accident and so any kanmusu in range of a comm burst never has to adjust their radio to hear you.

It's like getting station bleed, basically.

"Wait, why are you not in the lab with our sisters' bodies?" you ask.

Prinz Eugen winces a bit. "Well, let's say we started receiving 'reinforcements' from the combined fleet..."

"Dark," Kongou declares flatly.

Maryland shakes her head. "Ise and Tex are leading the defense of the lab with Naka and Takao. Souryuu and Zuihou led a group of destroyers up to reinforce Sara and the Sumner sisters."

"Very well." You sigh in relief. "We need to leave that device running as long as possible so the new kanmusu may avoid being slaughtered."

"They feel fear and pain, and none of this is their fault," Kongou explains. "I couldn't bring myself to kill them knowing that. It's not fair to them."

"They deserve a chance too," you conclude.

Mary nods. "Yeah. They do... and so do the Abyssal girls they're fighting, I think."

"I want to help them, Nagato. Like you helped me."

>And we will. Let's go out there together.
>And we will, but we need to thin out their support first.
>We'll get dogpiled out there. We need to wait for the clonemusu to do some of the heavy lifting for us.

When it comes, it will probably be decided in a few rounds of combat... one way or the other.

>>38030631
>And we will, but we need to thin out their support first.

>>38030631
>>And we will, but how the fuck do you plan on doing that? Also, I won't accept some bullshit plan that only includes the words "I'll see you again."

>>38030631
>>And we will. Let's go out there together.

>>38030631
>>And we will. Let's go out there together.

>>38030631

I'm assuming that the clonemusu are only attacking the Abyssals and not us. Still I'm not sure how we're supposed to help both sides here.

>Have someone else go to the radio and prepare to destroy it when the battle is finished
>And we will. Let's go out there together.

My intent is that the clonemusu will certainly feel better if we're fighting alongside them. It wouldn't surprise me of the admirals tried to have them attack and dispose of us too, in which case our side will be ready and waiting to destroy the radio.

"And we will," you promise her. "Together."

"Ain't that just sweet?" a voice greets you as a pair of kanmusu slide to a stop near you.

"Tenryuu? Tatsuta?" Prinzessin asks incredulously. "Why are you here?"

"We got killed," Tatsuta admits. "It was a particularly large Abyssal that got a fair few of us during a torpedo run."

"But hey, there're more to kill out here now!" Tenryuu crows. "So any of 'em that don't look like girls we can slice, right?"

You nod. "That sounds fair to me."

"Excellent," Tatsuta smiles.

I don't really understand how the roles factor into things or even what DC is.

>>38031171
That's not entirely accurate, more like some things people say make me feel like I'm missing something beyond the obvious.

As you advance, you get a good look at the field: about twenty Abyssals of various classes along with three humanoid ones. One is a battleship of some description, darting quickly back and forth between shell fountains as she fires. The second is a light cruiser, small but rather stately-looking. The third is a carrier: confident in her movements as she launches abyssal fighters from a crossbow similar to Sara's.

"Hey, who went and activated horde mode?" Kongou quips nervously.

"Big E?" Mary gasps. "Sandy? Allie too? Shit."

Seems she recognizes all three... as well she should as a former Abyssal herself, you figure.

You open fire with your comrades, scoring a series of direct hits on a massive battleship-type. From the several dozen cloned kanmusu of the Coronado come a stream of rockets launched from those portable launchers they carry. A few even concentrate fire from their undersized guns to bring down an Abyssal cruiser of some kind.

They don't seem to recognize you as allies, however, as several of them pelt you with fire from their cannons. A rocket strike throws Tatsuta onto her ass.

"Kyaaah!" she shouts, rolling to get back onto her feet. She managed to take that shot to a turret, but she lost it from the blast.

Likewise, Kongou just took a rocket strike to the back. There's no serious damage, but too many more of those could be a problem.

DC is difficulty class: what you need to roll as a target. With three simultaneous rolls for that target, you can have a critical success (three passes), a success (two passes), a failure (one pass), or a critfail (none pass). The post with the most passes of the first three responses is taken.

>>38031225
>>Hold off on the radio, engage the monstrous Abyssals
Kill the node, blow the tower, subdue the abyssal girls in that order

>>38031287
Going with this.

>>38031225
>Hold off on the radio, engage the monstrous Abyssals

>>38031287
"The node", anon? There's still a little less than 20 of them out there, and none of them are command-critical.

>>38031225
>>Hold off on the radio, engage the monstrous Abyssals
>Kill the node, blow the tower, subdue the abyssal girls in that order
This seems like a good idea.

>>38031225
>>Hold off on the radio, engage the monstrous Abyssals

Except, there is no node to kill.
It'd be a good idea, if it was actually based on fact instead of wishful thinking.

Engaging the monstrous Abyssals is still fine. Along with shooting planes out of the sky if there is opportunity.

Avoiding the tower for now is risky but we can't really play it safe now.

You continue pouring fire on the Abyssals, raking the "bridge" of a cruiser and setting it ablaze. Torpedoes streak away from Prinzessin like flashing lances, blasting a pair of destroyer-types right in their grinning maws. Waves of planes, both American and Japanese, rain bombs down onto the seas as Tenryuu and Takata laugh, slicing and shooting wildly through the monsters.

Mary dashes ahead, locking in a close range duel with "Allie", who you figure may be the battlecruiser Alaska. She succeeds in knocking the girl around, though at a certain point they're too close to shoot. Instead they begin trading powerful body blows.

Kongou is shouting the names of moves you've never heard of, all of them beginning in "BURNING!". She's absolutely in her element as rockets and shells and bombs burst all around you.

Then, even more help arrives: torpedo blasts rock several abyssal ships. Looking towards the horizon, where the sun is just beginning to rise, you see the sail of a full-sized submarine. Atop it is a man, square-shouldered and far too lackadaisical in his appearance to be a Captain.

You catch a glimpse of Lionfish poking her head out of the water, looking around at the craziness on the surface, then shaking her head and diving once more.

"Seems that Admiral Clarke was right!" you shout at nobody in particular.

As the sun continues to rise, causing the surface of the sea to sparkle and burn beautifully, something strange happens.

It begins very suddenly with Maryland and Alaska, who fall to the water with screams of pain. San Diego and Enterprise join them shortly afterward as Abyssal aircraft begin to fall from the sky or outright disappear.

The monstrous abyssals, or at least the ones with at least one mouth, roar in agony.

"What's wrong!?" Prinzessin shouts to her, dashing forward unopposed to help however she can.

"She... MUTSU GOT IT!" Maryland shouts back, laughing even as she cringes in pain. "FUCKING MVP, HOLY SHIT IF I KNEW IT WOULD HURT THAT MUCH THOUGH..."

Trust me, there's a difference. You have no way of knowing what it is though, so I'm afraid I can't tell you.

If we saturation-shell the tower, we could end up losing vital equipment, not to mention what it will look like to the rest of the world.

>>38031854
and your point is? I think we can equate most of the humans on base with Nazi SS personnel

>>38031890
Our role should be to punish (if necessary) other Kanmusu, we should leave the humans to punish their own, I think.

>>38031854
>Totally gonna kill some humans.
Ah, that's a good point. Shit.

I'm changing my vote to: >Shoot the tower now

>>38031890
>and your point is? I think we can equate most of the humans on base with Nazi SS personnel
That's fucking ridiculous. Dehumanizing people is exactly why we're in our current situation. You're making excuses.

>>38031890
Yes, because the maintenance personnel for the main base totally knew about the brainwashed girls.

Or how it looks when after the abyssals are defeated, the Kanmusu suddenly turn?

Brainwashing!

They were gonna get us all along!

To pre-empt this: if you change your vote and the system will allow it, please delete your older vote. Makes it easier to count.
