Whatever credit or victories we've had have been taken by the shipgirls already. The brass isn't going to fund a force that's behind the times.

This is all...

This is all the fault of shipgirls.

Does that really have anything to do with shipgirls? Shouldn't you be blaming the abyssal enemies?

Be a little sympathetic to my unhappiness at losing my job. If shipgirls didn't exist, we may have found a different way to fight the enemies.

I-I guess so. Who knows what would've happened then.
