>In the context of Kancolle, the ship is Aoba, the crew are the fairies living in her rigging, and the admiral is, well, us. Therefore, Goto's screwup is a kuso TTK incident, not a failing of Aoba the ship.

During the Battle of Cape Esperance Gotou was the commander of CruDiv6, which was a part of 8th Fleet under the command of Mikawa Gunichi. It's Mikawa scheduled supply run for the night of 11 October and at the same time send CruDiv6 together with Fubuki and Hatsuyuki to bombard Hendersen Field. "Admiral" as in "KanColle TTK" would be Mikawa and Gotou would be then "part" of CruDiv6's flagman ship Aoba (at the time he lived on Aoba after all), part of her crew, therefore in the context of KanColle fault for all the mess can be considered as Aoba's.
