You mainly need to traceroute the server you belong to. Tracing to DMM site is only if you have issues with entering DMM.com broadly speaking and not getting into any of the flash games for instance because those flash games are hosted on various and independent servers.

Broadly speaking, should you not know which server you belong to you can probably try any one of them. This will not yield accurate result but theoretically speaking most of those servers go through a single known gateway on one of the few last nodes before the literal target.

As for tracerouting itself, I suggest you to not use a standard tracerouting program but use a TCP based traceroute. The KanColle game servers blocks a specific and special type of packet known as ICMP which the majority of the tracerouting program uses. TCP based traceroute gets around that because it does not rely on ICMP.

There are some websites scattered around the internet whereby you use their facilities for TCP based traceroute. However, their results does not equate to the results at your end as you will need to find a suitable software that can do TCP based tracerouting. The results from both sides can thus be then examined.
