There fact that she's also the final reward for this event in particular is probably playing a part in the complaining. If this was, say, the reward of a regular short/medium event, or an intermediary reward, the backlash would have probably be a lot less intense (it would have probably been similar to Italia/Roma's introduction, a few people complaining but moving on quickly, especially considering how good her stats are).

The problem is that this event started to be hyped pretty much the day after the previous one. It also feel like one of the most difficult and tedious events since the introduction of the difficulty system. Under those conditions, I feel like people were bound to be disappointed one way or another, even if she wasn't drawn by Shibafu. The fact that she's a foreign ship, and an USS CV in particular, also probably played some part in it (people would have probably care less if she happened to be an Italian or a French ship).

She's still glorious though. :>
