None. I've never understood the fascination.

Honestly, I prefer most of the Kancolle versions of IJN "ships" over their AL counterparts. However we need more than just Nagato from Kancolle, but Kongo, Yamato, Bucky, Shimakaze, Atago, and, of course, Yudachi.

Overall, Kancolle remains more faithful to its historical inspiration. Azur Lane has its handful of winners ( like I can't imagine KC ever topping AL's version of Hood ) but they lean more heavily into the booba aspect of gacha.

Sadly the parent company of KC has no interest in foreign collabs.

I am not a real fan of Anime and have the same reservations @AdmiralThunder had responding because I am not sure where "Speed Racer" falls in Anime market.

Again, from the 1960's and early 1970's.   But, as a kid, I watched a lot of this show and enjoyed it.

And, the powers to be,  made a US movie out of the animated series in 2008.    Yeah.

Honestly, I watched Speed Racer again, and realized it was actually a pretty darn good anime adaptation, especially when compared to a lot of failed ones we're getting nowadays (Cowboy Bebop stands out for this).

Sure, it's crazy colorful (almost TOO much color) but the characters are pretty on-point imo.

Couldn't have beaten John Goodman as Pops though. Wow.

Was that your way of saying Brock Samson?

Could be, but I am sorry for not too familiar with the said character. Just want to keep Bob in check cuz guy literally mentioned character from Overflow 🤣

Back to the topic, since wishing for Kancolle isn't that practical as both companies will not collab, I will just wish for another Legend of the Galactic Heroes rerun, their voice lines are quite nice.

Here's a link to the television series which has Brock Samson as a character.
The Venture Bros.  TV Series  2003–2018  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0417373/

The Legend of the Galactic Heroes collaboration was a nice collaboration, and I wouldn't mind them doing it again.
I don't think the anime is as good as other series (Uchuu Senkan Yamato or Kantai Collection season 1),
but "obtainium" is better than "unobtainium", eh?  🙂

Yup, and the cool calm male voice lines from LOGH are quite nice to have during the heat of battle. There's a reason I set ARP Nachi/Gunzo Chihaya instead of characters like ARP Ashigara when I am in the mood of using anime voicelines. Calm voices doesn't hurt my head. Missed my opportunity to buy everyone from the LOGH franchise last time and would be nice to complete my collection.

Frederica Greenhill is the commander I welcomed to my port, from that collaboration.
Pleasant to listen to, in my opinion. 
But, since I enjoy many of the more outspoken Commanders, such as ARP Kirishima/Yotaroh, you may have to take my opinion with a figurative grain of salt.  🙂

Same choice here, I didn't fork out doubloons to buy others and in hindsight, I should.

Ryan Reynolds voiceover, of course.

 

And Blind Al as the first blind Commander (other than Jingles).

No voiceover required.

Interesting idea, but it leaves out the 'fun' that could be had with a character for voice lines. Maybe Marvin the Martian or Foghorn Leghorn would make a better voiceover version. Then again, how many players might remember these characters, and how badly could WG mess up any voice acting...?

 (...now where did I put those Loony Tunes DVD collections...)

I would use sound themes and effects instead of voice over. After all that's what the cartoons did.

Loved Legend of the Galactic Heroes. Looks like there'll be at least one more season. I have to rewatch the last season, should be dubbed by now.
