Azur Lane: I Really Didn't Mean to Be Surrounded by Shipgirls!

Nowadays, half of the Kantai Collection fanfiction comes from Xunhuiliu; the other half comes from Fatao fanfiction. The Search for the Flow was pioneered by the underwater lava ten years ago, and it took a full ten years to write! Their results might not even be as good as the pioneers. I'm really tired of seeing it. Because novel writing is so accessible, anyone can try their hand at it, resulting in a wide range of quality in ship girl fanfiction—some are overly sentimental, others are about Bao Si (a character from a popular novel), and still others are riddled with flaws. It just doesn't have any exciting moments! Those who survived mostly fall into the two categories I mentioned. After all, they've been tested by the market, and as long as they interact with the original characters, even if it's just a mundane story, people will still buy it. There's no charisma in the main character, no grand ambitions, the daily goal is just to tremble. The ship girls throw themselves at the protagonist the moment they meet; they have no reserve whatsoever, and their daily lives revolve around exploiting him. Just let things take their course, it's all the same anyway. Readers cursed while still reading. Two chapters a day, perfect for a quick read before bed. However, the author also had his difficulties. The protagonist was just an ordinary human being, whose intelligence was inferior to that of Amagi and the others, and whose strength was inferior to that of Musashi and the others. The villains, the Sirens, are even multiverse bosses, and the final boss, X, is a high-dimensional omniscient being. Our protagonist, on the other hand, was just a shut-in before he transmigrated. Even with cheat codes, he's a complete coward. Besides living off women, the only way he can barely make ends meet is by inheriting the port. What? Main storyline? Don't decent people skip this? This leads to a formula where over 90% of new Kantai Collection (KanColle) books follow the exact same pattern, lacking any innovation. It seems that besides giving out perks and making the ship girls jealous, there's nothing else to enjoy, and it doesn't even have the most basic elements of writing a novel. Introduction, development, transition, and conclusion? Everything went smoothly! Another issue is the age-old problem of human beings and polydactyly. Should humans exist? Logically, ship girls should protect humans, but humans include men, and men are not allowed to look at ship girls. However, humans definitely include both men and women, so humans are not allowed to exist. Not only humans, but even male animals must be turned into females and fucked! Then, polydactyly goes without saying, and it also has to become the female ccc. What exactly did the ship girls protect? (Image) Therefore, most ship girl fanfics involve some eroticism, which readers can enjoy. However, some authors have attempted to change this, such as historical naval battles with a different skin, crossover anime and ship girl novels, a Star Wars ship girl novel I recently read on Qidian, and this book follows a plot-driven approach. Because there was no precedent to follow, and the two worldviews were not even overlapping with each other, it was very difficult to succeed, and most of them flopped. This book was a little better off. It's not a bad thing for the protagonist to be a bit stronger. Its potential is definitely much higher than those that cross game ports, because their strategies are already fixed. However, the plot is not easy to handle, and there may not be a guaranteed readership to read it. Those who engage in erotic content generally have long-time readers who know them well. Who doesn't visit porn sites at least twice a week? But very few people will actually read about a worldview they're not interested in. Even if it's the main storyline, if it's not interesting, nobody will read it. Let's see how the author handles it; after all, they've written two million words, so they should have some experience. Online articles are essentially old wine in new bottles, but they are by no means simply copied and pasted; in fact, the information is often distorted in the process. To vent your frustrations and then defend yourself is to prove you right.

I hope you don't create that weak, submissive male lead type. This character trope is really becoming a pattern; basically, 9 out of 10 books use this nonsensical, silly character.

Is the author creating fanfiction based on the anime or the game?

I'm tired of mindless farming fanfiction. Are there any other "starting from scratch" Granblue Fantasy stories like this one? This one is pretty good, are there any others? Platform doesn't matter. #(Crying)

If it were just a normal, unfamiliar relationship, it would be fine, but the inclusion of future memories makes things very complicated, especially the ship girl memories in games (you know what I mean). In this situation, they're essentially two different entities. It would be better to omit this plot point altogether and let the protagonist build the port on their own, rather than relying on intermittent memories. It's really strange. Personally, I think this setting is superfluous.

It's so bland, no exciting moments. And the deus ex machina and the protagonist's own power are stuck at the toxic point—they'll die! It's already released, but the source of the power and the abilities are still unclear. If this drags on any longer, it's doomed. When writing fanfiction, you need to explain the overpowered abilities clearly and understandably. It's obvious the author wanted to create something different from current cat-ship girl fanfiction, but they've fallen into a trap. Of all the books Lu has written in recent years, only his "Leisurely Daily Life" is truly good. It covers eight factions, though the romance moves too fast, and it's currently on hiatus. The author could take a look and find inspiration there.

The more I write, the more plot holes there are and the weirder it gets. #(So sad)

The plot is bland, and the ship girl trend is off. 1. The plot is too boring ヽ(ー_ー)ノ or rather, the plot is too bland. 2. Character issues: There's too little development on popular ship girls, while Chuyue has too much screen time. It's not that I dislike them, but the author's writing style is off. Having played Kantai Collection for six years, I can't help but like the popular ship girls (I like some of the white and blue rarity ones too). If the author doesn't change the direction, it feels too bland and uninteresting to continue reading. Of course, it could also be that the author isn't updating enough, so some of the more exciting parts haven't been revealed yet. I hope the author doesn't abandon the story or leave it unfinished. Keep it up!

I thought it would be a commander-like story like "Wowo Shit," but it turns out it's just a bit of in-game knowledge, equipment guidance, research, modification, enhancement, and breakthroughs, and a negligible Rubik's Cube-based intelligent resonance. It's a little better than Peach's work, but it's not exactly interesting either. It's just average. Sigh, who's going to fill in the gaps in my understanding of classic elements like the spacebar jump, tactical maneuvering, and modern naval warfare theory? Essentially, it's still just kids playing house. (Commanders must know how to command, and ship girls must know how to use naval guns, wrong). The author is cutting ties with Peach's work on one hand, and on the other hand, it's not hardcore. Whether it's retrieved or not is unimportant. The author should at least know what they want to write and what kind of audience they want to attract. The novel currently feels very confused to me. The protagonist wants to participate more but doesn't know where to start. The cautiously revealed information doesn't have much effect. In the end, the breakthrough point is still the classic method of building new ships and forming a small group. But then again, if you've already lured Yunxian away, what else can you do if everyone else doesn't follow you? There's nothing new here.

Having watched the Sakura Empire arc end, I feel the protagonist hasn't improved at all, and his personality is quite boring. The plot is getting increasingly dull.
