@Osoibusa, that is called RNG, as mathmatically/reasonably, you cannot say that a plane slot of 24 is more likely than a slot of +30 to keep all of its planes. That's one situation, and you cannot generalize off of a few lucky goes. I will say that misfortune can happen, and the size of the slot may not matter when you get screwed over by RNG. Also, to the previous commenter, yeah, Kaga is amazing for FP, but I do agree, you'd be much better off with Hiryuu Kai ni if you want attack power. Broadly speaking however, you often want a mix of FP and AS.

@Kuropercher, sorry if I was too insulting, but the OP here loudly declared his adoration for Shoukaku, which is an opinion as well, which is a way of forcing it? Though, on the flip side, it may be more unpleasant to read negative comments, which is probably your point.

@クッキー can you give evidence to back that up? I've never heard of that, and think it may be an unfounded claim, but it would be interesting if true.

tl;dr Shoukaku class isn't unuseable by any means (compared to Unryuu class......secret CVL-class that they are), but currently, despite how well designed they were in real life, the game doesn't represent that, as the current mechanics place them at a disadvantage to other CV classes.
