Kantai Collection/YMMV


 * Ass Pull: In the final episode of the anime, the battle of is going about as well for the fleet girls as the original did, and then
 * Awesome Music: A point of praise for the game and the anime.
 * Here's a piano medley of some of the best parts of the anime soundtrack.
 * Better Than Canon: Some fans think so about the likes of Belated Battleship and Kant-O-Celle Quest. To be fair to Kadokawa Games, fanfiction doesn't have to fit in a strict format (the anime tried to cram six months of naval warfare into about four hours of screen time) or appeal to a mass audience (so the gritty details of politically-incorrect history and warfare can be mined for drama) or make money (so ships that are not so popular in Japan, such as those from Allied navies, can be brought into the story).
 * Memetic Mutation:
 * Somehow, Zuikaku got associated with this funky dance (represented in text as ｽﾞｲ₍₍(ง˘ω˘)ว⁾⁾ｽﾞｲ). And then her voice actress did it.
 * "WANKEEER!"
 * "Poi", "Nanodesu", "BURNING/BANINGU LOVE!", "Pan-paka-pan!/Ta-da!"
 * Suspiciously Similar Song: It has not escaped notice that the anime's opening goes really well with "Savior of Song", the opening theme of Arpeggio of Blue Steel -Ars Nova-.
