I don't play Kancolle, but most of my irl friends played the game (some of them also tried tourabu when the game first opened). When I talked to them about the kiwame changes, they're actually baffled. It's completely unlike Kai Ni when it comes to dialogue (and character) changes, and they say kiwame's character change is quite extreme. One of them suggested keeping another copy of the sword: 1 kiwame for battles and 1 non-kiwame as secretary; another one suggested to just stop playing if the character you like is treated like that by the devs. What they dislike is the extreme stats change from non-kiwame to kiwame, because it forces the player to kiwame a sword if they want to keep using him in the more difficult maps. And I do want to use Imanotsurugi in map 5 and 7, his kiwame stats are wonderful. I'd love to try completing Kebiishi-ed 5-4 with Sanjou swords only (I wonder if anyone's tried?)

A bit more info: in Kancolle, all stats addition in Kai Ni is less than 50% of Kai stats. Even after marriage in kancolle, which lets the ship to go over lvl 99 (max lv 150 after marriage) and gives some stats boost, the character doesn't suddenly start talking about the Teitoku in all their lines either. So even my Teitoku friends are baffled with the direction Tourabu's going.

And I agree, Horikawa not mentioning Kane-san in his lines and Hizamaru not calling Anija would feel so weird.

...am I a bad aruji if Imanotsurugi's destroyed line makes me feel relieved that he still thinks of Yoshitsune (and Benkei and Iwatooshi in extension) in his last breaths?
