Lol a bit late though. This is for those who are new and future generations. Fubuki in the game and anime is voiced by Uesaka Sumire. Herself is a graduate from Sophia University in which she majored in the Russian language. This is why user 200018 suggested Fubuki to translate/speak Russian in the reply above.

Am I the only one who realizes that Verniy saying that she's "most senior in level second to the first flagship" naturally implies that she's one of the earliest shipgirls that Munmu's Admiral got, if not the actual second shipgirl he got?

Going back to his earlier strip he started with the best pokemon, Murakumo

Looking at the artwork, clearly the belt is to hold the torpedoes and keep the jacket in place for that constant "fluttering in the wind" look.

If I remember correctly Murakumo was his starter ship, would that make her the strongest in his fleet?

Many small people are sillily stupid about their height ( silly because smallness is not a bad thing ); and small girls can go spare over the matter.

What do you mean "but not really"? Everywhere i look it same day. And why you decided that Gangut was lead-ship when even in design phase project was called Sevastopol?

The initial laying down was ceremonial, work didn't actually start on that very day. And while it might well be the 'Sevastapol-class' in Russian, in English and Japanese (and probably others), it's Gangut. I didn't decide anything myself.

When it comes down to it, ship class' names are just really what the military of a country calls it. If the USN/IJN wanted to call Gangut's class Sevastapol, it would have been. But I suspect that even though all the ships were laid down the same day, Gangut is (semi-)officially the 'first' to be laid down - and in the western class-naming convention, that means that it's the 'Gangut-class'.

Seeing as this is in Japanese (where it's Gangut) and translated into English (where it's also Gangut), there's no need to change it to fit the Russian naming convention.

Different entities count 'first of class' in different ways, viz. laid down vs launched vs commissioned. Given that all of the Ganguts were officially (but not really) laid down on the same day, Gangut is the lead ship, and thus #1 of the class. The last ship launched, certainly - but first in the Gangut class of battleships.

Similarily, Tenryuu launched after Tatsuta - but it's still the first of the Tenryuu-class light cruisers, and Myouoku was the 3rd launched of her class.

Europe generally uses the first to be commissioned, and the US is a little weird in that it's the first ship that Congress gives the okay too - even if it gets laid down after the rest of the class is fully comissioned.

I don't get it, why does Gangut's coat have a belt at the very bottom as well?

NonShinyDude also said:

it doesn't look very practical either...

Imagine a trench coat, with the buttons grouped at the bottom and midsection. But instead of buttons, it uses a belt. Same principle, with an option for letting the air in or keeping the wind off of you.

To keep your coat tightly closed around hips and legs, duh. It's pretty cold in Russia, you know? Gotta have a good layer of clothes wrapped around every centimeter of your body, to keep the warmth in and cold, piercing wind out. But her coat design is retarded. A couple buttons would do, like on a real soviet military coat, no need for a belt, like some kind of FF character would wear.

In defense of those two, they were going on a hunting expedition, not to war. Musket hunting is totally normal, and a magnum .70 cal cartridge from something like a brown bess or a charleville long rifle is certainly powerful enough for hunting boar.

Given her age, Gangut might like using something like a berdan 2 just as well.

I get this feeling that Gangut and munmu's Admiral will get along quite nicely from morning practice with Kiso and the girls as well as facepalming at Gangut's selection of firearms because lolBerdan or Mosin-Nagant.
