Abandoning a close friend relying on her to save her life or sanity is also unjustifiable. She made the choice of a hero, and we both know that it's going to turn out to have been the correct one over sensibly retreating and leaving the whole alien mind control thing to the adults who clearly know what they're doing and will definitely solve it without her help.

I think the biggest takeaway here is that letting high school girls with little to no actual nautical expirience take full control of armed battleships with no supervision is a bad idea.

And again, what is your point? Sometimes, the only thing that will work is the seemingly-illogical path, especially in stories. She did her best to make sure her crew wouldn't be in danger, then took all of the responsibility for her personal situation with Moka onto herself; her crew are right to be concerned, but neither you nor I are members of her crew. It seems that by your analysis she's damned if she does, damned if she doesn't.

No, since that would require her staying on the ship.

>then took all of the responsibility for her personal situation with Moka onto herself
Which is not what she should be doing, as she is the captain of the ship she shouldn't forsake the matters of the ship to chase after her own personal matters. She has a responsibility and by leaving the ship in dark times she's shirking her duties.

My point, again, is basically that the end doesn't justify the means. Yes she is doing the right thing in HINDSIGHT (which is afforded to us as the audience/spectators of the story), but it is not the right thing to be doing in the situation.

Let me make an example if you're having a hard time understanding what I'm saying.

Let's say that baby Hitler is vulnerable in his crib, and his nurse-chan can save millions of lives in the future by suffocating him to death (again, this is in hindsight). However would this be the right thing to do given the context of the situation? Ofc not. It's not okay to choke innocent babies. Unless for some reason that nurse knew the horrible things that baby would do when he grew up, you can't justify her suffocating that baby in its crib.

Does this make sense yet?

So yes Moka is doing the right thing (in hindsight) by trying to do the crazy, illogical things that she is doing, without even knowing if it's the right thing to do.

But no Moka is not doing the right thing from a contextual standpoint. This is a reflection of her personality.

A huge flaw for a captain is someone that will put their own personal feelings ahead of the well being of the ship that they're charged with.

>Which is not what she should be doing, as she is the captain of the ship she shouldn't forsake the matters of the ship to chase after her own personal matters.
And as a human being, she shouldn't forsake her close friend who's relying on her to save her life. She's betting that she can save both even if objectively , because that's what heroic characters do.

If a character beating the objective odds and saving the day despite their unorthodox actions make you lose faith in them, I really don't think anime is for you. Or any fiction beyond soul-crushingly cynical dytopian stories, really.

>Let's say that baby Hitler is vulnerable in his crib
This is a terrible analogy. Killing random babies is not blind optimistic heroism, it's just killing random babies. It is what it is: a captain ignoring the clinical rationality of standard doctrine and trying to save the day without sacrificing what matters to her. Nobody knows what the right course of action is at the time, and the doctrine doesn't always get it right. That's not about hindsight, it's about disagreements on what the best thing to do is. Plenty of real-life war heroes are those who did the "wrong" thing, but it ended up paying off. Are those people also bad?

>A huge flaw for a captain is someone that will put their own personal feelings ahead of the well being of the ship that they're charged with.

No. Mike technically didn't violate her order. She would be in trouble and be held answerable to a board of inquiry, but Mike did not order the Harekaze into engaging the Musashi, although she would have been interpreting her order of investigating and report way too liberally by trying to reach the Musashi.

Shiro on the other hand is something else.

Is not abandoning a ship in combat conditions considered desertion, even if it's for a "good" cause?

I would have expected her to give orders to close the distance and execute an offensive boarding action, with her leading the charge to rescue/detain the Musashi crew while helping to protect the other ships from further damage.

Morale, not undermining the command structure, setting a example of how to fulfill one's duty in the face of adversity, etc. etc.

>And as a human being, she shouldn't forsake her close friend who's relying on her to save her life. She's betting that she can save both even if objectively , because that's what heroic characters do.
Sure, but the ship should come first. She even said it herself, that all her comrades on the sea are like her family, so it's ironic that she would abandon them to go and try to 'save' moka. And by 'save' I mean suicidally charge through a figurative oceanic minefield littered with bullets and explosions.

>If a character beating the objective odds and saving the day despite their unorthodox actions make you lose faith in them, I really don't think anime is for you. Or any fiction beyond soul-crushingly cynical dytopian stories, really.
I have no problem with this. It's fine to be unorthodox. It is NOT fine to abandon your family in times of need and to shirk your duties just because you want to go see your friend. This isn't unorthodox, this is just scummy.

>This is a terrible analogy.
I was illustrating how just because dramatic irony exists, it doesn't necessarily make it right for the characters to act according to that irony. Yes killing the baby would save millions in hindsight, the audience knows that, however doing so is wrong and immoral for obvious reasons. Yes going to try to meet Moka is probably the right thing to do in hindsight since it will progress the plot and lead to developments and since the MC has plot armor, however abandoning the ship when she doesn't even know the things that we know, just illustrates her shaky character and resolve. She's unfit to be a captain and she should resign permanently.

Except if her XO followed her order, none of these are relevant because there would be no danger in the first place. As far as morale goes, I have a sneaking suspicion that most of the crew are going to be happier taking part in Mission Rescue Captain over Mission Run Away While Captain's Friend Dies.

>Sure, but the ship should come first.
Which is why she decided she had to go by herself instead of staying with the Harekaze.

>She even said it herself, that all her comrades on the sea are like her family
She wants to save everyone, not just her command.

>It's fine to be unorthodox. It is NOT fine to abandon your family in times of need and to shirk your duties just because you want to go see your friend
Restating something in more emotive language is not an argument, and leads me to suspect that you've just already decided you hate Mike and nothing will ever register to the contrary.

>I was illustrating how just because dramatic irony exists, it doesn't necessarily make it right for the characters to act according to that irony.
In a nonsensical way. This is not dramatic irony, it's not hindsight, it's someone playing against the odds in order to protect everything. The situations are not analogous.

Let's fix the analogy. What if the nurse had some reason to believe that the baby might grow up to kill millions, just like Mike has some reason to do what she did? She can't be sure, and even then maybe it's a long shot, but suddenly the choice is much more gray, especially when she's playing personal risk rather than sacrificing a baby.

>just illustrates her shaky character and resolve
So unresolved she charges in danger by herself because she can't put her crew at risk nor can she abandon someone who needs her.

>She's unfit to be a captain and she should resign permanently.
Yeah, you already made your mind up long ago.

>>141248709

I see, I agree it's absolutely fucking impossible.

The fastest pitch ever recorded went 169.14 km/h, which by the way, the batter MISSED.
Musashi's Type 94 naval guns fired shells at a velocity of 2808km/h, over 15 times the speed of said fastest pitch.

Not only that, but they're not even hitting the shell like you would a baseball. They're launching their own shells to an intercept point clear of their own ship, which means a whole new set of ballistic calculations. And they're doing this all by eye and turning wheels. What a load of shit.

Then they wouldn't have markings on the flight deck for the main and tail rotor of helicopters.

But they do so where are they?

You should have seen this coming from the moment Tama started banging away with an AA gun, given planes aren't supposed to even exist and the (25mm?) doesn't have the range to hit Zeppelins.

This kind of thing is inevitably going to show up if you port ships that were designed with heavier-than-air aircraft in mind directly into a setting where said heavier-than-air aircraft don't exist.

>>141250159
SW never gave any numbers of the velocities and ranges of the proton torpedos or the size of the vent.

The ships in Haifuri have established, real world numbers on their weapons which we can draw conclusions from.

The animators have the numbers. They know the numbers. They just think we're too stupid to realize how impossible it is.

>>141250238
Not to mention the Sea RAMs on the Sarushima.

Not going to shoot down too many airships with those, considering they only have a range of about five miles.

Maybe their airships are different to ours and just used to lift smaller things for other purposes. According to the interview, the people there doesn't believe that human can fly so their airships don't have any pilot.

Look, Princess, they knew the position of Musashi. They new the range to Musashi. They knew when the shells were fired, from which turret, and what velocity they were fired at. They had the shells on radar and were tracking their approach. They knew exactly where the shells were going and where they would land.

It's not rocket science to intercept them considering they're travelling on a fixed ballistic arc. It's no more difficult to hit the incoming shells than it would be to hit an incoming aircraft. In fact, it'd be easier.

Only Harekaze crew would be stupid enough to attempt this.
Only Captain Mike's ship lucky enough to pull this.

But it's her ship, she's fucked if she lost it. Not that her luck are that shitty.

She reminds me of Sena.

>>141250585
If her luck was good why did she hit the debris?

>>141250538
Mike's luck is actually long-ranged.

First chapter of the manga shows her jet ski breaking down (because she tried to backflip with it), so she swims back to shore to find someone to tow it back for her. In the time she was gone Maron came across it, towed it back to the pier and then fixed it before leaving. Mike literally comes back to find her ski completely fixed and waiting for her without lifting a finger.

>>141250637
Hitting the debris might have saved her from worse fate, who knows what is in the Musashi.

Holy fucking shit, Mike is a cunt.

Worst Haifuri.

Abandoned her fucking ship in the midst of duties.

I hope being incarcerated is the least of her worries.

Absolute cunt. Never did like her much, but she's fucking the least likeable person this season, and I'm watching Mayoiga too.

>They had the shells on radar and were tracking their approach
t. I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about

Harekaze is fitted with 1 (one) small surface search radar. Not air search, not A2D search, and definitely not a fucking 3D illuminating radar. The only reason the shells were picked up is because they were travelling at such a flat angle due to the close proximity. The directions given by the radar operator are absolute dogshit as well.
>They're heading straight for us!
>Vague 10 second countdown
Without looking at the already vague as fuck radar screen, Tateishi gives elevations to the gunners, who also have no view of the radar screen or any sort of ballistics instrument.

You're seriously implying that schoolgirls with no software or mapping whatsoever can shoot down mach 2 projectiles at close ranges while accounting for tumbling, wind influence, warship coast and no FCS.

Absolutely hilarious, why even have SeaRAM when little girls are obviously the answer?
