Azur Lane: The Animation is an anime adaptation based on the Azur Lane game. It is directed by Tensho and animated by Tensho's Bibury Animation Studio. The series aired from October 3, 2019 to March 20, 2020.When the Earth's oceans are attacked by a mysterious alien force called the Sirens, four major nations, Eagle Union, the Royal Navy, the Sakura Empire, and the Ironblood form the "Azur Lane" military alliance to combat the Sirens using shipgirls, girls fused with naval warships. Eventually, the Sirens are defeated, but a rift forms between the factions, with the Eagle Union and Royal Navy coming in opposition against the Sakura Empire and Ironblood, where the former factions wished to use humanity's own strength to defeat the Sirens as opposed to the latter factions' willingness to use the Sirens' own technology to defeat the Sirens.Licensed by Funimation, both the sub and dub can be viewed on their website and Hulu.

 Azur Lane / int_14431f9
comment
Enterprise and Akagi: Both are suffering from what happened to their older sisters; however, Yorktown survives, albeit severely crippled, while Amagi perished. These events caused them to enter dark territories; for Enterprise, it was entering a Superpowered Evil Side, while for Akagi, she forms a deal with the Sirens behind her country's back.

Sir Not-Appearing-in-This-Trailer: Even though the Ironblood are mentioned in the trailers, the only one who really shows up (and for a very short bit) is Z23. Even then, she doesn't get as much focus as the other Starter ships and Unicorn and it's only in the anime introduction we get to see more of them (with Prinz Eugen and Bismarck getting the most focus).

comment
Mythology Gag: Ayanami and Akagi's codenames, "Citrus" and "Phoenix", respectively, are actually the censored names they appear with in the game's Chinese server. Some of the girls are introduced in shots having a similarity to their default pose artworks, such as Prinz Eugen and Norfolk. The anime will find ways to include dialogue directly from the game into the story.

Adaptational Sexuality
 Azur Lane / int_2bb06191
comment
Adaptational Sexuality: Because of the absence of the Commander, it's not too surprising that the girls are either depicted as not having their romantic orientation being brought up at all or be rather distinctly lesbian. Most notably, Akagi is clearly shown to have a much more intimate relationship with Kaga than in the game, even directing her Yandere behavior towards her in the absence of a Commander. Lesser cases being Atago being more skinship friendly with Takao (much to Takao's distress) and Prinz Eugen mildly harassing Hatsuharu. It's hinted that Akagi's relationship with Kaga is just a ruse on the former's part to make the latter go along with her plans.

Out of Focus
 Azur Lane / int_32da91b8
comment
Out of Focus: Of all of the four major nations, Ironblood has the least focus so far. Along with not really appearing in the trailers other than a few shots, none of their ships are even in the initial credit sequence (Prinz Eugen and Z23 get added later). However, they have been mentioned, have some emphasis in the opening credits, and even the battleship SMS Bayernnote This is notable because there isn't a shipgirl depiction of her in any ship girl game at the time the anime came out can be seen during some of the establishing shots of the base in the first episode.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome
 Azur Lane / int_3ed23024
comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: After the first battle, a lot of the ships are shown to be damaged and Enterprise herself is shown to still be worn out from combat. A lot of ships here need time and rest to recover and as shown, her gear wasn't fully repaired, making her almost fall to Zuikaku if the Royal Navy's reinforcements hadn't come in when they did. Also, the small fleet that got attacked by Zuikaku and Shoukaku were not only taken out easily, current reinforcements had to assist them, meaning that they had their hands full in combat.

Butt-Monkey: San Diego. Most of her appearances has her on the receiving end of misfortune. The first episode has her perform in a nonexistent concert as Laffey, Javelin and Unicorn, who were searching for Unicorn's Living Toy U-chan at the time, just look as if they don't care one bit. The second episode has her as one of the first onscreen casualties shown after the battle in the first episode, and her name's even introduced as she's face down in the water. She's shown later whining about how her ship got damaged. The third episode shows her getting chased by a shark, where Saratoga has to help her deal with with offscreen. Thankfully, the fourth episode gave her a small break, but she gets misfortune again in Episode 6. Hammann is just as bad as San Diego, as many scenes she's featured in shows her getting beaten easily by enemy forces or just for Hornet to mess around with. She maybe even worse than San Diego in this regard as when the latter got her small break above, the former somehow gets roped in to helping Ning Hai and Ping Hai with their business, to her annoyance.

Broken Ace: While she's respected by her peeps and is considered to be a legend, Enterprise feels all they're good for is fighting; furthermore, she hasn't gotten over what happened to her older sister, Yorktown. It's not surprising that she ends up being akin to Ash at times, who also applies. Akagi is Sakura Empire's greatest military asset. However, she never got over Amagi's death.

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Kaga, to an extreme, towards Akagi. She's a Replacement Goldfish for Amagi, and a failed one at that, and she knows this. She will follow Akagi's machinations without hesitating and will follow them through in her absence as well. Even after the soul-crushing abuse she got at the hands of Orochi!Amagi, she still sides with them because she just genuinely wants to make Akagi happy and figures this is the best way, even if it means facing both Crimson Axis and Azur Lane forces combined, just to protect Akagi and Orochi!Amagi.

Replacement Goldfish: Late in the series, Kaga started to feel that she's a failed version of this as Akagi never stopped longing for Amagi. When Orochi, in the guise of Amagi, spells it out loud, it completely crushes her.

He Knows Too Much: Akashi accidentally stumbles upon a Siren ship while minding her own business, making the Observer almost kill her. Due to this, she escapes with Edinburgh and Sheffield, who happened to be infiltrating the base at the time, and defects to Azur Lane.

Shoukaku and Zuikaku are this to Akagi and Kaga. More apparent with Zuikaku and Kaga who are both defeated by Ash. However, the defeat and nearly losing Shoukaku in the process is what forces Zuikaku to quell her Hot-Blooded attitude and improve herself while Kaga, who believed that Akagi is dead, slowly loses her mind.

Knight of Cerebus: The Sirens. They are treated as a legitimate threat and everyone seems to show serious concern whenever they show up. The one Siren we see so far even resorts to killing someone from the Red Axis just because they had accidentally found out about them. Ash, the alternate version of Enterprise, is this. When she shows up in episode 7, she one shots Akagi and Kaga, and in the following episode, almost kills Zuikaku and Shoukaku if Ayanami hadn't interfered.

comment
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Enterprise compared to her game self is notably this as at the start and at the end of episode 9, she's seen holed up in her room eating rations and other pre-made food. The cause? Yorktown's maiming. In contrast, Game!Enterprise only reaches a similar bad state (ready to go into a suicidal charge) after losing both sisters, seen in the "Solomon Ranger" event. And while Belfast has some difficulty talking Anime!Enterprise out of her state, in the game, Saratoga does so with more ease. Unicorn has some D-Cup Distress, which isn't seen in the game.

Covers Always Lie: The opening for the anime is actually accurate to most of what happens in the first season (even including Laffey and Javelin successfully becoming friends with Ayanami), but the last moment, we see the four nations flash forward, with significant ships showing up (Enterprise for Eagle Union, Queen Elizabeth/Warspite for Royal Navy, Akagi and Kaga for Sakura Empire) ... until the last one shows for Ironblood ... Bismarck. Not only has Ironblood not played a significant role other than Prinz Eugen (keep in mind the only Ironblood ships that have appeared have been the same exact ones that appeared in Prinz's shot in the intro), Bismarck herself hasn't appeared at all in any form - until the very end of the season, where Prinz Eugen mentions about a proposition with Azur Lane to her.

Adaptational Badass: Kaga, in particular, can summon a giant fox that almost killed Unicorn if Enterprise didn't intervene, with her Blood Knight qualities are more emphasized here in contrast to her more subdued self in the game. Akagi can perform a similar trick with a flaming dragon. Enterprise is badass enough in the games, but she managed to one-shot Kaga and almost killed her if Zuikaku didn't interfere. However, due to being worn out from the battle, this is downplayed. While Belfast has some history, like going toe to toe with a battlecruiser, it's surprising to see her take on the katana-wielding Zuikaku with just her bare hands.

Spared by the Adaptation
 Azur Lane / int_7453bc5b
comment
Spared by the Adaptation: The anime doesn't seem to be based directly off events of the game and therefore, actual naval history, so certain characters seem to be alive when they should have been dead and sunken. For instance, Arizona is alive (although she along with a squadron get beat up by Zuikaku and Shoukaku), while in the actual game (and history), she was one of the first Eagle Union ships to go during the attack on Pearl Harbor. And so far (as of the second episode), Hood is alive and well, despite being the first major casualty in the game, being shot down during the Battle of the Denmark Strait by Bismarck. Yorktown, Enterprise's older sister, doesn't explicitly die here, but she is hospitalized for most of the season, meaning something really bad must have happened to her. In fact, the only character who wasn't spared is Amagi, which is confirmed to be Akagi's primary motivation in the anime, and that's because she was already dead before the start of the series.

 Azur Lane / int_c313d43a
comment
Azur Lane and Crimson Axis: They are both powerful factions but their methodologies in dealing with the Sirens are completely opposite to one another. Azur Lane are comprised of True Companions with all members helping each other while the latter faction is practically an unstable alliance that will eventually fall apart if the constant secrets and backstabbing continues.

comment
Irony: Enterprise's catchphrase, "Owari Da" note Translates to "It's Over!" is usually associated with her Signature Move, Lucky E. However, in here, it leads to a bad stroke of luck here that her gear broke down, leaving her open to Zuikaku.

Cliffhanger

comment
Cliffhanger: The second episode ends with Belfast rushing in saving Enterprise from Zuikaku, introducing herself as "a maid passing by". The tenth episode ends with Purifier and Enterprise firing at each other with Kaga emerging with Project Orochi, causing cataclysm in the Sakura Empire. It got worse as the following two episodes were delayed for three months.

Shout-Out
 Azur Lane / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Beyond mythology gags, several items are references to other works: The Opening Narration of the first episode is one big homage to Ron Perlman's introductions to each Fallout game. Episode 1 has Enterprise utter this line, and in Gratuitous English to boot. Ash says it too in Episode 12. In Episode 2, the battle damage at the base has shot-for-shot similarities◊ to the aftermath scenes in the movie Pearl Harbor. There's a shot-for-shot◊ recreation of Kisaragi's sinking in KanColle, but Cleveland, the target, survives here. After saving Enterprise from Zuikaku, Belfast introduces herself as "just a maid who's passing through." Likely accidental, but Belfast basically paraphrases Spider-Man's "With great power, comes great responsibility" in Episode 4. Enterprise chasing a missile to destroy it in Episode 12 will be very familiar to Ace Combat players.

Lighter and Softer: So far, the events of the anime don't recreate the actual battles of war, so many ships that were supposed to be sunk are alive. With the exception of the Sirens, Akagi, Kaga, and possibly some Surprisingly Realistic Outcome moments, the anime is considered to be rather light compared to the game itself.

Adaptational Wimp: Certain ships get taken out easier than others. In particular, San Diego, a ship that would normally be effective against Akagi and Kaga, got taken out offscreen and she's shown as one of the first casualties onscreen. She's seen whining about her ship later. The small fleet consisting of Northampton, Helena, Arizona, Long Island, Hammann, and Hornet are all easily defeated (with exception to Hornet) offscreen by Shoukaku and Zuikaku, and even Hornet's shown barely hanging out as she's dodging most of Shoukaku's planes. Even after reinforcements come, Hornet herself is shown being too worn out to fight. This is actually something of a game callback. The six ships form a game-legal fleet: three Main Fleet ships (Arizona, Long Island, Hornet) and three Vanguard ships (Northampton, Helena, Hammann). What's more, all six ships are Rares or Elites readily available early in the game (Long Island is a Starter Mon). It's a newbie fleet. No wonder Shoukaku and Zuikaku took them apart.

San Diego. Most of her appearances has her on the receiving end of misfortune. The first episode has her perform in a nonexistent concert as Laffey, Javelin and Unicorn, who were searching for Unicorn's Living Toy U-chan at the time, just look as if they don't care one bit. The second episode has her as one of the first onscreen casualties shown after the battle in the first episode, and her name's even introduced as she's face down in the water. She's shown later whining about how her ship got damaged. The third episode shows her getting chased by a shark, where Saratoga has to help her deal with with offscreen. Thankfully, the fourth episode gave her a small break, but she gets misfortune again in Episode 6.

Know When to Fold 'Em: Of all people, Akagi. She warns Kaga against fighting Enterprise, orders a retreat as soon as their objectives are sufficiently accomplished, and even had Zuikaku in reserve to cover the retreat. Prinz Eugen chooses to surrender once she finds out the Royal Navy reinforcements are coming in and it's not just Belfast.

Early-Bird Cameo: Nagato of the Sakura Empire is shown, although covered, during the opening sequence. She's shown in the following episode when Enterprise narrates the four factions, and is shown in person during the fourth episode. Hood herself is briefly mentioned during the first episode and is very briefly shown in the opening sequence. She briefly appears in the following episode and is fully shown in the third. As shown in "Last Supper" Steal, the credit sequence introduces a small amount of characters who hadn't appeared anywhere in the first episode (or opening sequence) yet. A lot of those characters appear in the third and fourth episodes.

Easily Forgiven: No one in Azur Lane holds any hard feelings towards Ayanami when she ends up as their "prisoner of war". Downplayed concerning Akagi and Kaga. While they will indeed be facing punishment for their crimes, it won't be as severe since Nagato admits that all of Sakura Empire is responsible for letting Orochi get out of control.
