I would love to say this anime had some plots, but then, I look up the production team on MAL and I'm not seeing any scriptwriter or storyboard writer in the Staff. Just looking at the list and I can see why KanColle anime has horrible CGs, horrible plot and horrible everything except OST.

For a team of merely 8 members, they have 4 music-related roles, 3 administrative roles and 1 character design. There's simply no art director, animation director, and zero writers.

So yes, they couldn't have possibly known what they were doing there. If anything, the story progression was all over the place. We have in every episode cute-girl-doing-cute-things for the first one third, fanservice in the second one third and mediocre melodrama in the last one third (which was immediately hit with Anti-climatica silliness in the next episode, or worse, resolved in the same episode). Not to mention Charisma Break every other episode, and Impending-Doom vs. Plot Armor in every sortie.

At some points, I have to wonder if there was any cliché tropes they haven't deployed in the anime.
