I correctly identified the 406mm/16-inch guns, but funny thing is, I discounted both Wisconsin and Indiana because of the shipgirl’s scar. Her scar is on her left cheek, whereas both Wisky and Indiana only ever got damaged on their starboard (right) side. In the end, I had been thinking she might be Hawaii (because the in-game 305mm art is similar to the 406s).

[@GuardianEPlays]

Ah, a logical conclusion, understandable

[@Sira_Kackavalj]

Indiana a South Dakota BB, Pittsburg a Baltimore CA, Fargo is a modified Cleveland class CL, Bell is a Fletcher and Herring is a Gato sub

[@GuardianEPlays]

Yes, indeedy, thanks for writing it out!

[@warsmithandrath449]

Super hyped about the FDG L2D skin. Never have my gems been more ready.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Gems around the world trembled at the L2D reveal

[@ResillyusXD]

Nice to see AL getting a MomoTalk update.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Yeah, a texting feature just makes too much sense these days.

[@senormichalecenera4654]

Congrats on the greeting bro, Nice speech btw and expecting next week will be a ride. Especially the Easter Egg was an Oath Skin of PR4 Anchorage.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thank you~! The celebration event should be a blast!

[@Epubworld]

Surprisingly I liked the Pittsburgh and Bell more than Indiana. Pitts looks like the Mogador of the Baltimore class and Bell looked like she was a Sakura empire DD in Eagle union uniform. Glad to see your message in the live stream! didn't know you covered the game since the start of AL. Love what you do and hope you keep killing it.

[@GuardianEPlays]

They all look great! I really like the entire batch. Yep, we've been at it for a very long time! I think our first Azur Lane video was Atago's rate-up - the first new banner in the game.

[@TacoLex]

Pittsburgh with her western outfit and side ponytail… That does something to a man

[@bumbayker]

I think Unicorn's skin was suppose to be for the last event since it clearly looks like it's race themed. But it didn't make the cut.

[@marcorodriguez8792]

Didn't make the cut? Poor Unicorn...

[@evaman0182]

I mean it looks more like it shouldve been with the sports theme from the idol event

[@GuardianEPlays]

That's certainly possible - it wouldn't be the first time that a skin wasn't finished in time for a particular set, so it lagged behind.

[@Wolfpack_Br0]

Literally spewed my drink directly in my sister's face when I heard Indian😂 And OMG I was right on my guess!!!!

[@GuardianEPlays]

Good call! She just came right out at the start.

[@Solidgchin]

I was really happy to see you in the creator segment. I hope you saw all the commanders cheering you on in chat.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thank you, that really means so much to me~ o(TヘTo) You guys are the best.

[@lock8030]

I’m so excited for the FDG L2D. She looks absolutely breathtaking. This will be my first AL yearly anniversary so I’m excited.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Anniversaries are always a good time! Have fun and enjoy!

[@thenoblegerman2637]

14:28 You know it’s a Shipgirl game when the animators don’t know how how the drive rods of a steam engine work

Hahah, well they have their priorities, I suppose

[@Physsyra]

Western skins were long overdue, and it's so good to see them putting that AL flair to great usage on these lovely ladies A shame for no USS Texas in the old west update, but it is what it is

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thrilled with the theming, I think it makes a lot of sense. I guess they're saving Texas for another day!

[@CheeseInvader]

do every stream has this screenshot rewards? I started watching kind of late in the stream and didn't notice those =/

[@GuardianEPlays]

I think this is the first time they've done it. Only a limited number of winners, so it was a tossup to get the gems.

[@Siddhartha13]

Our bro got feature on the official stream. Congratz bro, you deserve it.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thank you very much~! o(TヘTo)

[@carlosgironjr.]

So if we post all 4 manjus, we will all get 800 gems? Or only the first four people?

[@hassathunter2464]

Just a few lucky ones, see their tweet "Bounty: 200 gems for 20 Commanders"

[@GuardianEPlays]

It does look like it's limited to a certain number of commanders.

[@marcorodriguez8792]

Eldridge getting a retrofit makes me so happy. She was my second most used DD when I first started playing (first being Laffey). She has helped me get through chapters 5 to 11. As much as i wanted a retrofit for Nagato, a retrofit for Eldridge is just as good 😊

[@GuardianEPlays]

Ah, very appropriate! If past UR retrofits are any indication, I'm sure she'll be quite good.

[@JohnSmith-fy3jy]

Is Indiana En VA same person as Red Hood En VA ? sound quiet similar

[@GuardianEPlays]

Not sure, they do sound a bit similar!

[@cg_4209]

I think the biggest surprise to me was the Eldridge Retrofit. I thought that the next retrofit would be a Big 7, since that was the pattern lately. If anything, I thought Maryland would get one, and eventually Nagato for a UR Retrofit. Welp, all I know is that I got a ring for Eldridge and Anchorage ready. :3

[@GuardianEPlays]

I was certainly not expecting the Eldridge retro either!

[@EagleHawk175]

This is my first AL anniversary as i joined with the Unzen event. Pretty hyped for the and as always, looking forward to your skin reviews. The stream instantly sold me on thd FDG L2D skin.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Annis are always fun! That L2D reveal was pretty huge!

[@jeffreyultimate]

can't wait for indiana's banner

[@GuardianEPlays]

Very excited for her!

[@carlosgironjr.]

When’s your video on the new Brown Dust 2 Beauties coming out? Super excited to see your pulls

[@GuardianEPlays]

The video should go out next week when Morpeah goes live - I'm going to try to consolidate the pulls into pairs!

[@1darkholme]

Super hyped for all the new stuff! It'll be my first AL anniversary, started playing with the Unzen event. I am most excited about the new 3D gamemode and the chat thingy. As you said in the video - i think it really goes a long way! And congrats on being part of the show! Happy 6th anniversary commanders!

[@GuardianEPlays]

It definitely makes a big difference! Can't wait for the different updates to drop, but in the meantime, anniversary should be a blast!

isn't Oceana one of the sirens?

[@GuardianEPlays]

Hmmm, maaaaybe (˳˘ ɜ˘) ♬♪♫

[@eclairmint]

Totally getting Painleve's L2d and Kersaint's skin. Absolute must buy for me among the batch. Their sportwear skins were a bit of a letdown for me personally. Also Anchorage's oath skin ftw!!!

[@GuardianEPlays]

Both phenomenal skins in this set! And Anchorage looks so happy!

[@alvinkwan7215]

No hesitation needed for the FDG swimsuit skin! Going for her the first thing after maintenance ;)

Congrat for 6th anniversary Azurpane and thankyou for cinema in dorm i see can't wait to interaction with Amagi

[@hassathunter2464]

So far Amagi isn't part of 3D dorm :(

[@GuardianEPlays]

Happy 6th Anniversary! We'll have to see who else gets revealed for the first launch. I'm sure they'll trickle in new shipgirls over time.

[@federicoliem7543]

@@hassathunter2464 well friend maybe in future she will add to dorm aniamtion just we waiting this only open door if get nice positive will be add new in future just wait

[@mareczek00713]

I love how Indiana's outfit is clearly inspired by FFXIV female roegadyn, reflecting her muscle mommy status.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Not sure, but certainly a similar archetype!

[@RuggedRunnerOverland]

Hot damn, I really like those western themed skins...never really would've figured we'd get something so niche as a western theme, but some of those skins are must buys for me. Just a shame only one was L2D, but at least they did make a few of them dynamic.

[@GuardianEPlays]

I was pleasantly surprised by the number of Dynamics, like you say. I feel like we should shift more towards Dynamics being the norm, where possible. I'm all for more L2Ds where they can squeeze them in! Western theme is awesome.

[@Komandor-ss6fu]

New ships, new event, new memories. 6th anniversary is on the corner, this game has become like a part of me, so good 👍👍👍 If Azur Lane is going to go down someday, i will go with it to the bottom of earth. (Hope Azur Lane will be popular no matter the hate, stupid comments from haters etc.; sorry for this emotional thingy😓) I love this game so much🎉🎉🎉 Anyway, from all Russian people, can't wait for next weekend, HAPPY 6TH ANNIVERSARY, COMMANDERS🎉🎉🎉🎉 P.S. still can't understand how they choose shipgirls for retrofits and oath skins, but i waited for at least 3 oath skins, not only one... Hopefully 7th Anniversary of Japanese Azur Lane will be damn great as hell. And congrats on your greeting, it was so awesome as always🎉 P.S.S. Don't know, wanted to type on Russian some words of joy about 6th Anniversary, but i don't want to say something strange, don't even know how to describe this feeling😅

[@GuardianEPlays]

Let it all out! It's good to celebrate the good times and enjoy our precious memories! Happy 6th Anniversary! JP Anniversaries are always a big deal as well, so I expect it to be huge!

[@Komandor-ss6fu]

​@@GuardianEPlays Well, I'll say it like this and write it to other people: Russian: Поздравляю всех командиров с 6 годовщиной Azur Lane, желаю всем хороших новых воспоминаний со своими кансен(корабледевушками😅) и хорошей вам гачи всем, надеюсь все кто вам нужен будут выпадать 🎉🎉🎉 English: I congratulate every commander with 6th Anniversary of Azur Lane, I wish you all new memories with your Kansen(shipgirls😅) and good luck with your gacha everyone, hope that you'll get shipgirls you want🎉🎉🎉

I can't wait for the 30 minutes of poetry video about the FDG L2D. Anchorage Oath Skin. Eldridge Retrofit. I dunno who agrees with me at Manjuu, but they know what I want.

[@GuardianEPlays]

So much lovely art! Eldridge Retro was certainly a big surprise to me!

[@lawrenceallen2627]

I was right !!!

[@GuardianEPlays]

Nice!

[@PenguinDust1969]

I am often as excited for the retrofits as I am for the new ships. I can't wait to see what the new UR Eldridge will do. That FDG skin looks like an insta-buy. I love L2D skins for ships I use often.

[@GuardianEPlays]

People have been clamoring for that FdG L2D for so long, I think it's a tipping point for a lot of folks! So many fun reveals.

[@RichDavis13]

Good livestream. Just wish we actually got 6 ships for our 6th anni like we did last year. Especially because its the USS faction too - there's already way too many names to cover for their navy.

[@GuardianEPlays]

It was fun festive livestream! While it was one less ship, at least they all look fantastic.

[@IJNLoverraa]

Friedrich and anchorage.They certainly stole the event❤🎉

[@GuardianEPlays]

Certainly reveals that people have been asking for!

[@Havok5704]

I was really hoping we could get another tan girl L2d :( North Hampton is the only 1

I do wish that Indiana had gotten a L2D as well.

[@terrencetang6684]

Congrats E on official stream🎉

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thank you~! o(TヘTo)

[@Juanatsu]

I started to play this wonderful game thanks to your videos and that's why I was really happy to see you again in the official live stream. Congrats GuardianE! The new shipgirls looks amazing. I hope to get all of them, specially Pittsburgh. I'm sure I'll enjoy her personality. We got really good skins and I can see Painlevé and Kersaint get a buff and they are more thiccer this time (I have no complaints!). I think FDG skin is an instabuy for me and definitely I'll get her. I didn't expect that Anchorage gets an Oath skin this year. She looks so happy and beautiful. I'll marry her and protect her smile for ever :)

[@GuardianEPlays]

Thank you so much~! (°ω° ) ~♪ This is a truly lovely batch of shipgirls and skins! Can't wait to pull for them, and I hope your session goes well! Must protect that Anchorage smile indeed!

[@araarashinigami]

Been guessing a SoDak since the character art leak. Was right. But I have little interest in her tbh -- not a fan of any of the tomboy type characters whatsoever. Anticipate her being as whatever as Alabama and Mass. Good seeing you in the stream. Most interested in Fargo, UR retro, 3D dorm, and our second daughter.

[@fande7demarzo]

Exactly when is the Anniversary? It's my first anniversary in this game, maybe I'm not a veteran but I truly love Azur Lane and I hope this game become more and more successful, AL it's really amazing

[@GuardianEPlays]

Anniversary event goes live on the 15th

[@Circenate]

Indiana's skin has a very good staging in my opinion. And for good lord who taught Kersaint the expression "cow girl" ? And Fargo wich is in the same vein. For sure they know what there are doing...

[@GuardianEPlays]

I adore the backdrop and setting for Indiana's skin - so good. All of them are really lovely!

[@xxearth25]

I am definitely oathing all 5 new ship girls when they come to the game August 15th! Looking forward to all the new skins. Right now grinding 12-4 to get PR7 done and get coins ready for the new construction banner soon.

[@Mashamazzi]

Do you need to play chapter 12 to grind for PR7 ships? I honestly have no clue where to start with any of them, but I want the green haired one from 7 and the one who got 2nd place too lol

[@xxearth25]

@@Mashamazzi Any chapter will work to get PR exp. You need to make sure you have the required Sardenga Empire/Northern Parilament main fleet ships to get exp for the exp missions to unlock the PR7 ship.

[@GuardianEPlays]

A little prep goes a long way, for sure!

[@GuardianEPlays]

Chapter 12-4 just happens to be the most consistent auto-farming spot for EXP/Coin gain. You don't need to get to Chapter 12 to start, though it'd be recommended to farm story stages Chapter 9 or later, the latest stage you can consistently clear, since there's an oil cap and big coin gain. You can also earn EXP (reduced) from Operation Siren.

[@kirindas4691]

I'm looking forward to the event! A very packed livestream! Lots of great announcements! The skins for Pittsburgh and FDG are very tempting!

[@GuardianEPlays]

It was quite a fun one! The anni event promises to be a good time! The skins are delectable.

[@YuutaKyon]

Manjuu never fails to deliver! I love this games so much!

[@GuardianEPlays]

They continue to deliver the goods!

[@seanallard9335]

I honestly hope that they bring in English VA's for the voicelines. Also, Biscuit oathskin when.

[@hassathunter2464]

Look up english VA and snowbreak

[@GuardianEPlays]

I think the intimidation factor at this point is voicing 700+ ships after 6-7 years. It'd be an absolutely enormous project.

[@naejin]

You try out new mobile gacha, Sword of Convallaria? Combat looks like it might be like Final Fantasy Tactics &/or Ogre Tactics

[@GuardianEPlays]

I haven't, though I've seen some threads about the game recently. Does it seem like there's positive sentiment?

[@naejin]

@@GuardianEPlays so far, people who enjoy turn based SRPG's are enjoying it. Forewarning for GuardianE, this game does not look to be focused on fan service eyecandy. but the mechanics & systems are interesting. Much of combat environment is interactive, where you can shoot explosive barrels, push rocks into enemies, push enemies off into pits, etc. It has observed & learned from it's predecessors & implemented a lot of positive systems such as a way to slowly farm up hero stars without summoning. Chat system & guild system looks like it could use more polish perhaps. But then again, i'm still new to the game

[@kyphrin]

Can't help but be disappointed that Amagi still doesn't have an oath skin... Anchorage's oath skin does look nice though Fargo and Herring are probably my favorites of the new ships, might grab Fargo's skin too

[@hassathunter2464]

We get 2/3 more next month for the JP anniversary

[@GuardianEPlays]

I do think they'd save an Amagi oath for JP, if anywhere. All the ship reveals were really impressive! Great batch!

[@kyphrin]

Fair, I suppose I assumed it'd be revealed for Global since that is where she won the popularity poll. Either way, yeah, I have no complaints on the new ship/skin designs, they were all great for sure!

[@Malficion]

USS Eldridge 😮 If they rework her skill to ALWAYS proc every 15s with 5s duration. That would be insane.

[@GuardianEPlays]

We'll see before too long!

[@kurosumomo]

Nice event, not a big fan of the wild west thematic, but nice non the less. Ironically enough Eldridge is the only SSR (aside of collab shipgirls) that I haven't limit broken and sits at lv.70. I guess this is the way of the game to tell me I have been slacking.

[@GuardianEPlays]

No better reason to limit break her now!

[@hassathunter2464]

Finally an EN live. Great to see you on the stream giving a happy b-day Ships are great, skins... not so much for me, maybe next month. They SERIOUSLY need a random skin when they release an oath for Anchorage...

[@GuardianEPlays]

At such a convenient hour, too! Glad to be able to join the celebration! I definitely wish we had that individual ship skin randomizer. It has a permanent spot on all survey responses.

just thought it was strange NONE of the other South Dakota sisters showed up since Indiana is the final ship to complete their class collection, you think at least one of them would show...next man I was hoping we would get something to power up Enterprise (a retrofit, a new version of Enterprise I am not picky!)...fingers still crossed it will happen soon....and third ha I already oathed Anchorage...so an oath skin the match is super cool! Now Baltimore needs one, I mean I was surprised when I recently oathed Bremerton and SHE has one but not Baltimore...

[@GuardianEPlays]

Happy to see more of the South Dakota class - I'm definitely a fan. I think they're saving a special time to bring out an upgrade to Enty. Would love to see an oath skin for Balty as well.

[@Avalon64]

@@GuardianEPlays heh it's not just more, its the final piece that completes their Class of Battleship and its always cool to see Sisters of any class getting to work together...I mean at least their class is done...unlike say the Cleveland or Fletcher Class where there are simply WAY too many sisters to realistically put in the game at least not for a long time...lol

AL is basically Kancolle with a lot of fanservice in a paralel universe where Japan didn't have "fear of success" in the West.

[@Mashamazzi]

I'm pretty sure I got in to Azur Lane because Kancolle was only in Japan/Japanese, but I could be wrong cause it's been a while..

[@AdmiralHibi]

@@Mashamazzi Similar reasons for me. Japan just like to gatekeep their games from western due many incidents in the past.

Thought Indiana would be UR,unfortunately not but still,i'm mega very hyped for her!!! Well,i'm still waiting for Champagne to get a new skin,but i really liked Indiana a lot and might get an oath ring and her skin along. And sheesh,those Kersaint and Painlevé skins are buffed as hell XD,pretty sweet that big Friedrich got a new skin too. Damn,i almost cried again with the music video(Every year almost crying coz of those),twas also fun seeing GuardianE watching GuardianE,had loads of fun with the stream and the chibis and 3D modellings too,very hyped for that message exchange thing and to see if Oceana will get variant colors or not. Anyway,have plans for the oath ring? I'll use this one for Sovetsky and best of luck with the new characters

[@GuardianEPlays]

I kind of thought she was going to be a UR myself, though I do think they'd get a bit of backlash since we'll undoubtedly get a UR for the JP anniversary next month too. Lots of lovely new skins, and that music video was so sweet. It was awesome seeing the animation and all our shipgirls enjoying themselves. There's so many potential homes for the oath ring!

[@n4rut089animereviewer]

@GuardianEPlays In general, it feels like enthusiasm for the game is turning away from story to lewd plot armor as seen in recent swimsuit and racing skins. Another example is the time when players were asking for Yamato or Iowa BBs. Anyway that's how I'm seeing at this point in time, I think the devs still have time to change that mentality.

[@somsokca7836]

It would absolutely be overkill if we get a UR this close to the JP anni which is a guaranteed UR event.

[@mcdonkey500]

where is this UR sub you speak of

[@araarashinigami]

Average Eagle Union simp who can't tell the difference between a destroyer and submarine. XD

[@GuardianEPlays]

I personally would have preferred another ship to be the UR retro, but I am glad we did get one revealed for the EN anni at all. I think the skins are really awesome too!

[@droman655]

Imfucking tired of events. Just stop and fix opsi3hours a day just doing the same node week after weekyostarhasfotgottenthre game is supposedtobr fun

[@GuardianEPlays]

How are you doing 3 hours of OpSi per day? You can Strategic Auto which will get your full Meta coordinates every day in like 10 minutes.

Their running out of skin ideas

[@Mashamazzi]

Good thing they're not running out of ship girls to reuse the great skin ideas on

[@GuardianEPlays]

Hm, doesn't really seem like it to me.

[@vegassincity702]

Lame english.

[@GuardianEPlays]

Aw, I think they did alright. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I do think it has advantages for the purposes of a livestream.
