Sorry. This video took a while to be finished, I'm still feeling weak due to my low blood. :3 Thanks for waiting fellow shikikans! More FUN FACTS about ships: ru-vid.com/group/PLhRsCXiNuDoviyBUcjaCJf3yYLxzSXkrK Subscribe for more Azur Lane contents!
Admiral Hipper (and Blücher) were also the smallest of their class, Prinz Eugen was larger and Seydlitz and Lützow would've been too if they were completed. So there's another reason for her flatness, and maybe a chance that Blücher will be flat too since Hipper seems to have more positive feelings for her than her other sisters. And Prinz Eugen's bitterness towards being a lucky ship goes deeper than that, she may have survived but she had to live through most of the Kriegsmarine surface fleet sinking. And then got nuked twice. So she views her "luck" as more of a curse rather than a blessing like you see with a lucky ship like Enterprise or Zuikaku.
As someone who learnt japanese, english, chinese and german, might I add that it must be really confusing for the japanese to speak the german words although they learn english. Ie before learning german, i always pronounced prinz eugen as Prince Eugene, but in reality, its more appropriate to pronounce it as Prin-tss Oy-gen (Oy like Oy mate and Gen like den from garden)
Another fun fact it's Tallinn in her mission reminder dialogue she says "missions are important, they were during my time in Ironblood and they still are now" This is a reference to her past in Germany
Another Fun facts about Admiral Hipper: The British reported only seven ships were lost, totaling 32,806 long tons (33,332 t), along with damage to two more. The Germans claimed Admiral Hipper had sunk thirteen of the nineteen freighters, while some survivors reported fourteen ships of the convoy were sunk.
Dracheneifel said that Prinz Eugen took all the luck from the other ships in her class. True enough, and maybe another reason Hipper is jealously angry at her sister.
If you've seen Sound Euphonium!, you know our Hipster's VA is Yuuko. Blonde and tsundere 🤣. Fun fact, Yuri (her VA) plays the trumpet just like Yuuko in Euphonium.
I think the secretary idle 1 actually refers to how only sms Blucher was sunk during the battle of Dogger Bank in ww1 while under command of Franz von hipper
I’d really like to see some older ships like mikasa to be added. Even if not “meta” or anything it would be nice to see what they come up with for designs
next IB event maybe? I think Blucher, along with some other destroyers are all that is left to their surface fleet (discounting design ship blueprints and ships from WW1 or older)
