Aha! And everyone seems to forget that the Iowa-class (who actually saw a good deal more combat than the Yamato-class) was designed to counter the Yamato (not saying they did a good job of it). In fact, in many ways the Iowas could be considered a 'Super-Battleships' in their own right.

...But at that rate it boils down to an 'Ultimate Warrior' (Yamato) vs 'Ultimate Rogue' (late-war Iowa/New Jersey, or Missouri/Wisconsin anytime) argument... and that never ends well.

No, but to seriously respond to your (the OP's) concern, there are several others out there that could stand toe to toe with the Yamato that have a (slight) chance of implementation into Kancolle, but I don't think that that will happen for quite some time yet. Even the Bismark (who is far weaker than the Yamato) will take a while, in all likely hood (unless they pull a big one on us and implement her this month).
