Well, Minazuki can be a bit lax at times, but she's managed to do everything that needs doing.

Thanks, ma'am!

It seems her combat performance is pretty unimpressive, though...

It's true that she's not as good as the others when it comes to fleet combat or torpedo runs, but those aren't the end-all be-all.

We can't keep going without transport operations and convoy escorts, after all. I think if you've got that stuff down pat, that's more than enough.

I see, so it's like having the right person for the right job, huh?
