Thanks for trying to convince me that this is possible. Now this is an interesting piece of history there, just where did you find such information(the IJA vs IJN part)?

Look, I like to keep a neutral thought when it comes to this. At first, I don't think this is going to happen. However, there will be some factors that made me think twice about the possibility. I wouldn't mind if they add Allied kanmusu if they do it right. Now before this thread continues to become just like an angry hall of roman senators in most debate, let me conclude this: Yes, it is possible but risky. However, all decision is decided by Kadokawa itself. We could only expect the result to be either favourable or a dissapointment. First thing first: I am 140.112.5.4, just got my account registered today.

Your theory was solid, I agree, the reasons will be stated below with other stuffs.

Personally I'm a self-acclaimed enthusiast of WWII naval history, and have a group of friends interested in military-related knowledges as well. Sadly I was born in a country of historical Japanese occupation as well as following self-identity issues (go check where the IP belongs to, then wiki "Japanization" and "Feb 28, 1947"), and as a result, I face a s**tload of local internet noobs that thought IJN was the strongest navy except the USN during WWII, just because they feel attached and nostalgic to Japanese rule. This includes the cry of not wanting Allied shipgirls' introduction (hence the reason why I agree with you).

That's why I did some personal research on IJN, as in what their strategy was, where their industrial strength ranked globally, and of course, their relations with IJA.
