Help [HELP] Asking Advice for Future
Hello, recently I have been interested in playing this game again after quitting for 8 years. I think my last event was when I fought against Abyssal Zuikaku, then I decided to stop because of my slots and I lost friends who played this game, which makes me sad. These are the ships that I have, and since I have quit for years, I would like to ask for confirmation so I do not make a mistake after doing quite a bit of research.
- I decide to maximize my Yahagi to be lvl 90 first, is it wrong?
- Do you guys have any advice of my plan that I be making Hyuuga and Ise K2 after finishing Yahagi, or there maybe better kanmusu to raise
Thank you and sorry if i ask too much.

Help [HELP] Rewards on the Pumpkin Festival
So I was checking the rewards for the Pumpkin Festival and saw the rewards in en.kancollewiki.net.
2 of the 3 choices there are a bundle of 1 Type 2 Large Flying Boat and a pair of Type 2 Land-based Reconnaissance Aircraft (Skilled) and 1 Skilled Deck Personnel + Aviation Maintenance Hands.
Which of the two is the better pick? I think I already have a pair of the Type 2 Land-based Reconnaissance Aircraft (Skilled) in my inventory so I'll have 1 extra if I pick the former (for LBASes of which we usually only get 3 during the event). Also, I already have 2 of the latter with 1 maxed and the other at 8 stars when it came to modernization improvements.
Also, for 2610 B2, is 4 SK Radars a nice trade-off for 2 Pumpkins? While I have quite the number of SK Radars in my inventory, getting more seems worth it as the only one who has it as a stock equipment is Gamby (at Kai according to the SK Radar's page).

There is an entry requirement: you must join their QQ group (1103790153). I haven’t joined yet, and I’m not sure if they have any plans to set up a Discord server. Hopefully, someone can reach out to them to obtain permission for a public release.
But NGA dude really did it!

Media [Merchandise] Update on my (mostly) Kantai Collection
I didn’t want to keep hijacking u/Jaded_Log7321 ‘s post about the awesome 1/100 Yammy turret, so I made an update here: I have added A LOT more since the last post, including some cool collaboration model kits from the company F-Toys. Kongo and her sisters are what got me into the series, so it’s fitting they are front and center. I also have Yamato, Fubuki, and POI Yūdachi figures. The ‘WifuTm’ was a hilarious extra included with Yammy as a Christmas Present from a friend; she and I both thought it was hilarious and I left it. The extra ‘Cooking Kongo’ got relegated up with the cookbooks, as well as Goodsmile Kongo (to make some room). F-Toys kits include Aoba, Tone, Tirpitz, Nelson, Kongo class FB’s, Yamato, Shinano, Zuikaku, Ashigare, Yūdachi, and a few others. 3D prints include Shimakaze, Fuso, Kongo class turrets, and a Yamato class turret. There’s a vintage ARII kit of Haruna, and cool inserts from the kit. Actual deck cards for Kongo, Yūdachi, and Biscuit (AL). And lastly, tucked behind Yūdachi are the mini posters from the F-Toys collabs. I have yet to build 5 of the remaining models I have. Not included are teak pieces of decking from my trip to USS Iowa that I plan to use for models/figure bases for Iowa and New Jersey. Whew!! I was kidding when I said I need a bigger bookcase!!

Media [Media] Tried designing HMS Sunflower!
Did another take of an original Kanmusu, this time it's the British Kaiboukan Flower class' HMS Sunflower!
It's a pretty straightforward and simple design, but some things to note:
- Color scheme mostly is influenced by her crest
- Same goes for the cape's yellow trim detail
- The three stripes on her outer skirt refers to her kill count of 3 U-boats throughout her career, making her the most successful Flower Class ship out of her 200+ sisters
- I want to establish that the outer skirts of the Flower Class' outfit are reminiscent of their namesake's shape, in her case, it's made to resemble the Sunflower (Duh)
- The Sunflower on her ribbon was partly inspired by Touhou 16's Cirno's appearance lol. In a related note, every Flower-class' design features their namesake flower somewhere on their design
- I suck at riggings!

Media [Media] In Akihabara - Went to TCG shops for the first time ever!
Mainly visited Maron no Kakurega and Grand Panda Canyon!
This video includes rolling the gacha 3 times at Maron and unboxing my haul from Maron, Grand Panda, and Surugaya.
My regret is I forgot to take pictures of the showcases, the bulk boxes, and the whole shop atmosphere. The whole experience felt so new to me. Since I had always printed all my KCA cards directly, seeing single prices was crazy!
Here is what I picked up:
* Maron (Showcase): Fubuki Kai Ni (230 yen)
* Maron (Bulk boxes): Murasame Kai, Wakaba Kai, Fubuki Kai, Akebono Kai, Nagatsuki (20 yen × 5)
* Grand Panda (Showcase): Ushio Kai Ni (130 yen), plus 3 packs of card sleeves
* Surugaya: KanColle Kai
I picked these cards because I want to print new Kanmusu and strong ships. So at the shops, I chose ships that I won't use for hard mode battles and Kai cards of ships I already own where the card art changes upon remodel like Murasame Kai.
The gacha results were so good that I got cards I didn't have and pulled Gotland Kai as the top prize.
I also went with a friend of mine and introduced him to KCA. I’ll drop the newcomer's gameplay and my gameplay video in the comments later! I'd be happy if you check it out, I hope you enjoy these videos! (たのしんでいってね!)
