I Only Wanted to Build Light Cruisers, but Ended Up Building Super Battleships

[Shipgirls] [Abyssals] [Super Battleship] In a world where shipgirls wage a bitter war against the Abyssals, Naia is a broke student with no connections, trembling through the shipbuilding ceremony at Azure University. While everyone else is praying for a battleship, she makes one frantic wish after another: A light cruiser will do! Please, I can't afford to maintain a big ship! But when a deafening cannon blast erupts from Dry Dock Number One and the fog clears, a 195-centimeter steel-clad beauty stands silently before her.

"A Dragon Ash-class battleship. Standard displacement: 150,000 tons. Armed with twelve 556 mm main guns..."

Staring at the steel-armored sea dragon before her, Naia promptly breaks down. "How outrageous is the maintenance bill going to be? I think I'll just faint again!"

Only when Hood, her smiling Royal Navy homeroom teacher, announces, "The academy covers all maintenance costs," does Naia realize that she hasn't gone bankrupt. In fact, she got an invincible industrial behemoth for free?! The Abyssal forces stare at those twelve 556 mm guns, lost in thought, while Naia clings to her shipgirl's leg. "Jin'er, from now on, we can do whatever we want!"
