I don't suppose "forgive and forget" is in order between allied shipgirls and axis shipgirls? You can think about how Mogami got along with Mikuma and Nachi (both collided with her), or how Aoba got along with the whole lot other cruisers (there is a "Aoba's victims' group" cosisting of around 8~12 ships in Japanese fan fiction, either they were pushed into their death by Aoba, or Aoba failed to come to their rescue). That's mainly because they've basically forgotten half of their service records in selective obliviousness. Nagato and Prinz Eugen had forgotten about Operation Crossroad, while Samidare had forgotten what happened to Hiei back in Ironbottom Sound. Akagi and Kawakaze on the other hand remembers their last moments as they're sunk by enemy action.

Meaning they can get along fine with their fellow shipgirls in the same navy, but with their former enemies, not so much. They'll end up in a teeth-clenched teamwork at best and become an enemy faction that joins up with the Abyssals against us (just like Maya and Kongou from the Fleet of Fog) at worst. Well then, they can have selecive obliviousness upon who sunk them as well.

For instance, Hyuuga has no problem talking about VLS and SH-60K, even though they do come from her former enemy.
