15/17: Not sure what's going on, other than that the fleet seems to have finally leveled up to the point where they can overcome Airfield Hime (she mentions “Musashi” in her text, but the character never appears at any point). I also have no idea how/why they have Yahagi hogtied, or why the Abyssal Fleet suddenly seems to have regained the edge, nor why Battleship-Symbiotic looks so lackluster in the last panel of this... Man, this is an odd one.

2013 Fall event E-5 gives Musashi as reward, and Yahagi drops there at a very, VERY low rate, and the devs decided to extend the event period so that people have more time to farm for Yahagi.

And then people were disappointed because Yahagi's stats were kind of half-assed :s

You're assuming everyone plays this game only for stats.

It could be for collection too. It's not called Kantai Collection for no reason.

For some it was for Collection, but for some others, it was for stats + collection.

And for many others it's because they simply like the unit. Ask about stats to all those teitoku with Lv 99 maruyu.

Before translations are complete:

Did they forget to drop Yahagi after a battle and that's why the girls keep coming?

I think that's getting to what's going on... The tag on Yahagi, if I remember, says "over-time" or "after hours", so I think she's been tagged as a a long term prize-drop.

Probably it's Extended battle/match.
It works like injury time/extra time in soccer added after the 2 x 45 minutes game are over.

And Yahagi is the prize drop for that extra time.

And really painful for both sides.
