Yeah, nice elaboration. Bonus brownies for you :)

Thanks.

Oh yes, there is one more important thing: there is no region-locking for the Chinese servers. Japan's app store app is region-locked, but it isn't very surprising... I guess (Japan-only happens a lot to the games I want to play). Personally, my region (Singapore, although far away from China) seems to be officially recognized by Bilibili, so no illegal playing of the game for me.

Personally, I really, really hope that someday DMM will stop with the region-locking for at least Kancolle. I don't know if the developers can do anything about this, but one can hope... I guess.

I also had a chance to play Kancolle "blind" lately, since I have been using a temporary laptop and did not wish to install unnecessary stuff on it. It was very fun playing with 2-5's LoS, since half of my shipfus aren't high levelled (< L80) to climb over the LoS wall, even when I can do Saiun+seaplane-stuffing (but can only do so blindly). This is why I also hope that in phase 2, they will fix this problem - without viewers, the game is quite challenging to play. Without the viewer, even if others have figured out the mechanic for you, you would need a PC to visit the wiki, a calculator, pen and paper... just to play the game. This was why I wrote about the LoS part, since it is essentially a hidden stat.
