Intrepid for me because she's friendly, energetic and has interesting hobbies which I'm also into so there wouldn't be any shortage of topics to talk about with her. She's also quite awkward in a clumsy sense and I quite relate to that. Appearance wise, I really like her blue eyes and gray hair combination Unfortunately she suffers from the classic Essex class curse of being overshadowed by big boobs/ass ![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7008)


gnarlytoestep

Enterprise as well >Badass without being too rough or intimidating >Cute without being an uwu Moeblob >Sexy without it being degrading to her character >Based on possibly the most famous warship ever >Has the general look and vibes of the protagonist of an action light novel >Yui Ishikawa >Lots of gap moe potential She just works well as the poster character for the game (though I know Saratoga and Helena are the faces of CN).


pahusejjukjskoe

Just the Yorktowns in general.


Impossibu

Duke of York. I like her assertiveness and oozing charismatic personality. Her knowledge of Shakespearean literature is something to behold, and she could sing me poems with her sweet voice while I rest in her lap. She's a good support ship, gameplay wise, until Vanguard came along. I always deploy her with Helena, and then Cleveland and San Diego to fuck people up. And exotic personality, and with a nice body to back it up. So yeah, perfect ship. In game and in design.


_Fun_Employed_

Shakespearean vampire lover club


NerdyWarChronicler

Belfast. Just Belfast.


CurtisLemaysThirdAlt

Yorktown. Genuinely sweet but not weak by any extent. One of the few genuinely professional Kansen (except when she’s drunk). MILF energy when Hammann’s involved (seeing her care about others is incredibly endearing). Call it a hot take but I like nice people.


Maxburns345

Perseus. She may start out socially awkward and rude, but she gets better as you get closer to her. Also, she's really freakin cute!


Hyper_Drud

Marblehead. She’s an excellent example of not judging a book by its cover. I love it when she let’s her smart side out even if for a moment.


Sirboomsalot_Y-Wing

Not to mention her surprisingly illustrious career early in the war despite being one of the Omahas


WrestleCrazyGamer

New Jersey thus far. She's so full of energy and genuinely seems to be into you. The kind of girl who'd wanna listen to you about your favorite stuff for hours just to see you smile.


Prinz_Heinrich

I agree


Murphy12138

i agree too.


jeffisnotepic

Akagi. She's dedicated and compassionate, willing to do anything for those that she loves. She's also perfectly content just hanging out with the one she adores.


DarkFlameMazta

New Jersey, I like Socially active and Fun girls to hang out.


Unfieldedmarshall

Duca Degli Abruzzi. Very good Meta Wise, love her design and that serious Dignitary attitude is attractive.


hotstuffdesu

I really want a Nimi (Z23) in life. She's the perfect balance of Tsun and Dere that you can't help but tease, same with the likes of Rin (Fate) or Makise (SteinsGate). Intelligent, great to have conversations with. Diligent and hardworking, will take care of you but not spoil you too much. She also looks great in glasses, that first free skin of her was OP.


Upset_Environment_31

I have so many answers to this except I have to pick just one and... Hornet. She's wild, she's kind, she's a tease, she's life and living itself. She's a breath of fresh air.


ChernobylFirefighter

Helena: she is the cutest cinnamon roll ever. She is not just cute but she needs to be protected and she is willing to help the commander too. She was a real fighter in the war but sadly sunk at Kula Gulf. She also has awesome skins too so for me it is Helena.


TheGamingKid338

I can agree with that she is almost always one of my secraterys


CT_Rex501stLegion

Amagi She is a very elegant, kitsune, with a mom/older sis like personality, intelligent, intelectual and cares a lot about people around her. Even though her health isn't good, which is another reason why I love her, because that makes me want to protect and care for her. And her base art and skin are godly perfect for me, and illustrates all her elegance and perfection.


SIR_TAX_FRAUD

The lady lex mostly because she's my favorite ship in game and in real life. reason one is she will take care of my dumbass, reason 2 she is a great singer so I will have music to listen to and sing along to for a long time. Reason 3 she is caring and calm which is a bit like me. So thank you for coming to my talk about the grey lady


zimbledwarf

Azuma. Friendly, wants to get along with everyone, wants to protect, and she offers massages and refreshments. She was going to look like a scaled down Yamato-class before getting cancelled IRL. Her in game design is pretty dope too I guess


Driver_3404

Cleveland because she's just amazing in every way. And also because yes.


Shamastus

Best comment.


WarchiefArthas

Taihou for how caring she is and also diligent in self-improvement as she picks up different talents left and right throughout the story events thus far. She may look scary and unapproachable at first but once you know her, she's just a dorky self-aware cinnamon roll.


Fishman465

the biggest shame is how most of her skins focus on a few traits of her personality.


kazemire88

Naganami. Pretty, sweet, helpful, cute, happy, loyal.


AlexG_005

Trento. She’s cute, sweet, heart-warming, and will always accept you as you are


MentalNinjas

Baltimore. As someone from MD, I’m pretty biased, but I really think she was given one of the most fleshed out design, bio, and personality in the game. The Tom boy aesthetic is sold extremely well through both her skins and voice lines, and on top of that her rigging is just badass. Like her base pose and rigging has to be some of the coolest in the game without resorting to literal mechas like IB or NP. On a purely Waifu level though, Prinz Heinrich. Her design is just perfect.


weiivice

Akashi She has the money


Murphy12138

you just like money.


Cobbil

I can't select between three, and that's mostly due to my stylistic choices being so different. Belfast: What's there not to like? Calm, loving, dependable, and kind. She's the leader of the maids for a reason, and I see her as my Commander's second in command. Taihou: People screech at her alot, but those are the memers who don't know and won't get to learn about the character. She's passionate, loving, and willing to do what she must. Not to make you love her, but to make herself worthy of your affection. In the end, Taihou has small self-esteem, coupled with yandere tendencies as a deflection. And I love her. Marblehead: Originally, this would be Bremerton, but when I thought about it, Marblehead actually earns this spot. On the surface, she's vapid, fashionable, and focused on fashion. But underneath her facade, she's a smart, insecure girl who's fallen in love with gyaru fashion and her commander. She deserves all the hugs and headpats.


Fahrlar

The perfect shipgirl is the one I have on my port... All 500+ of them, but if I have to pick one, she would be Pennsylvania: girl in uniform, short skirt, leggings, strong but caring.


Maximus_supreme

Gotta be Hood for me, First SR I ever pulled and she hard carried me for basically all of my time as a beginner, she's very polite and elegant, I especially like how she doesnt view the battle of the denmark straits negatively Plus out of all the shipgirls I showed to my sister, she liked Hood the most


Pyarox

Formidable \-Cute \-twin tails \-love her personality \-victorian/maid dress \-2 other really big reasons i can't think of right now -wink-


TheGamingKid338

I can agree shes my favourite Royal navy ship


Pyarox

based op


TheGamingKid338

She has a back breaking design


Prinz_Heinrich

Big J, because she’s adorable, kindhearted, and caring


Kmd_saints

Meme(kind of not of a meme too tho) answer, all of the ones I'm gonna oath: NJ, Vittorio, Adalbert, Bremerton, Eugen, Belfast, Musashi, and Shinano. Non meme: it's NJ or Vittorio for me, NJ is energetic in a contagious way and it's hard to argue with Honey. And with Vittorio I could be totally fine just us relaxing, enjoying each other's company reading or something like that.


Loli4lyf69

shinano cuz shinano


F0r3ver

Takao....tough on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside


[deleted]

Her personality is nice too


RowLee88

Enterprise because……..Enterprise![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7192)


Purple-Ad-1607

Gotta say I love Enterprise. She is nice but also serious and has depth to her character.


Dragontalon486

Arizona, no question. She is so adorable and sweet that she's the perfect cinnamon roll (in my opinion). Plus with what happened to her in the past, I feel like she deserves to be happy and have peace of mind. I will love and protect her for the rest of my life, even if I have to do it by myself, and all I would want from her in return is her beautiful smile.


joker0221

I honestly felt bad when she was a meta ship I had to attack at the same time I was working on grinding xp in the lab for a Japanese ship. I quickly switched to a different faction because it just felt wrong.


CommanderExcals

Kawakaze I like her protective and mostly kuudere personality but also her design. Not to mention her love lines until to her oath was such a wonderful little character development. From a serious person with a bleak outlook in life to a loving and caring wife that's always waiting for you to comeback just really get's to me and that's why she's the perfect ship for me and even to this day no ship girl nor waifu was able to take her spot of being number one for me.


FreeRoamed

Repulse I can't name specific reasons, I just like it.


TheGamingKid338

Fair enough


LoRd_Of_AaRcnA

Enterprise. There is no one else like her. Won't ever be.


GnomeWarlord69

I love all the foxs, but probably Kaga the most. Why the foxs in particular? "I just think their neat!". ![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)![img](emote|t5_3p20d|7005)


TheUnnamedAuthor

For me, it started out with Graf Zeppelin and her… personality, but after getting Ulrich von Hutten, I found my perfect ship. I enjoy her design, and although she can be rude, she still cares, and that is what I would like my dream girl to be like.


MankuyRLaffy

It's Bismarck, I love the biscuit.


Brotlord2901

The perfect ship is clearly all of the ones i like


Ahshifa

Hanazuki or Manchester for me. Manchester is fun, and Hanazuki is just so sweet and endearing, especially in her secretary story.


GymInGirls

Long Island! I absolutely adore her voice lines, and her history is AWESOME! <3


[deleted]

Thuringen


GyakushinnMiko

It has to be Enterprise for me too. She is cute, looks amazing, has my most favorite voice actor and she has an amazing personality too


LuxuriApopsis

Not really a shipgirl but Purifier. I love her shitposting personality, her love for idols, still able to care for others and her general love for battle


DEVESTATOR2

I can't pick one, so I'll pick siblings so they're the same class Tirpitz because of her past Bismarck because, like her, I'm bad at expressing myself


Hondapants500

The Mighty Hood has to be mine, a proper lady carrying herself with imperial pride has an aura I cannot say no to...


TheGamingKid338

Recenly oathed her so can agree


Ulti-Moon

Akagi and Kaga. Akagi is such an interesting character to me. At the time when the game's story was starting to unravel, she was the most mysterious force who seemed to be working with the Sirens, only to eventually turn on them later on. Even now, it's amazing how smart she is and yet so sadistic towards her enemies, all while caring for her sister and allies. Plus her secretary story definitely shows that while she can be obsessive, she is open to chatting with others and genuinely cares for SKK. Then there's Kaga, who is also super fascinating to me. The event that gave us Amagi is my favorite for obvious reasons, especially because it gave us glimpse as to the dynamic between the two and with Amagi. To see this girl go from a very energetic and battle ready girl to what is basically a shell of her former self is very sad, and makes me want to comfort her even if she doesn't need it. Even so, the growth she has shown is amazing and the love for her sister stayed strong through it all, and while she seems cold, the moments where she lets her guard down are very sweet and shows that younger girl is still there. All that, plus I love floof and boobs.


TheGamingKid338

Post people just sum it up to that last line but good reasons


Ulti-Moon

Well, they were the first ships I ever saw on the title screen, and I am biased towards kitsunes, so it did start off with those reasons only.


Few_Camel_9038

Personally for me my favorite ship in the game is Reno. Her personality is incredibly wholesome and her character archetype is one I have a soft spot for. Passionate cheerleading sidekick, but also can be a hero of her own. Also yeah she's hot


Floden20

Musashi because FLOOF GODDESS


2nd_Lt_Muffin

Tirpitz, because even though she acts all cold at first, but she's a precious angel and we understand eachother


Death_Walker21

The bismarck class for me They are the very sole example of hard on the outside but a very normal girl on the inside


literally_refon

FDG cause MILF, im simple man


granjaveln

The fact that someone voted this guy down makes me sad. Have an upvote. She’s not my favorite, but she’s great.


cillix1580

Mine is Helena Because She's sweet


Lyzen

Graf Spee anyone? ❤️


Hondapants500

Absolutely!


Independent-South-58

That’s a difficult question, the 3 ships I would narrow it down too would be Roma, Chkalov or Zara. All 3 are great and well rounded but I do think I lean a bit closer to Chkalov of them


Sunrider999

Belfast. She’s clearly a war maid, devoted to her duty as both warrior and maid. I started in the game for her.


Gremlin_Bastard

I'm going to cheat slightly and say both Shinano and Musashi. 1) because i'm polyamorus, and 2) because both of them are perfect


Ship_Fucker69

Relationship. It connects me with my ships.


trainboy4449

Hood because of her elegant personality and her being one my favorite ships IRL and the reason why is because hood had a interesting history during the inter war era


Tomirk

On one hand Glowworm here is energetic and mad and great, but ark royal is quite cool and surprisingly caring


TheGreatDevourer0308

Laffey cause why not


Sharamik

Damn am I really going to be the first to say Atago? Flirty and confident with a kind and caring heart.


thealex78

Shinano, just chilling around and napping seems nice.


granjaveln

I think I already told you my favorite ship once, but it’s Eugen. I just like Iron Blood’s character designs over all and while I like the riggings of other characters better, like Ägir and August von Perseval, Eugen just wins for me because of her voice and personality. In short, lewd and funny.


Chingiz11

Purifier Bottom text


md_ariq

Z23 cuz I like glasses, lab coats and weird teascher fetish


TheGamingKid338

Defo the best looking starter


Znajomy_Dzumy

Renown. Serious, yet cute. A little dense, adorably so. Diligent, commited to her duties and very hard-working person. And her oath voiceline is just awwwwww...


Muttsurini7673

Roon, she is sweet and like hug while being a beast on the battlefield.


LordNilix

It's a tie between Graf Zeppelin and Roon for me Graf Zeppelin cause she likes to spend time mostly alone which creates a perfect atmosphere for us to relax Roon was my first PR ship and immediately loved her crazier personality and style, that and the hugs are always welcome Both have been in the same fleet since I got em and are my first 125s


Cm210

Taihou, she's a protective yandere what more do I need to say


Ecstatic-Procedure25

Kiev, Beautiful white hair and gorgeous red eyes She WANTS headpats She WANTS to hold hands with you She WANTS to melt in your arms The moment I got her, I bought her skin and in less than two days, oathed her.


Informal_Violinist_4

Vanguard. She can fight, be cool, and is a massive weeb. What more can you ask for? Oh right, she looks great as a maid. 😎


Kriegsmarineskk

Probably Bismarck or Tirpitz Our personalities are very similar, and the skins aren't too bad either


Furydragonstormer

Bismarck for the most part, but New Jersey scares me in how she is the only one who has genuinely challenged Bismarck for that spot


Alban_Z7

Biscuit is indeed best ship🛐


Draiye

AvP I would say she has one of the more realistic looking colors if she were real, long black hair and all that. Not to mention her submissive personality that's revealed later on as opposed to her dominant facade is also very cute, and is something I find attractive in her. :) *AvP-chan when*


New-Freedom-8871

Indomitable. Her personality fits my bill


EukalyptusBonBon21

Enterprise and Bismarck because of their stoic personality


Xviii_reo

Friedrich Der Große, she can be very gentle and a to others referred to as scary or intimidating. But it’s what I look for in a women because during hard times she would tend to cheer me up and tell me that everything will be ok and in certain be forceful towards what’s best for me for example eating healthy, exercising and studying.


NathanN5o4

Azuma because I want to know why she's flying with her katana in chibi.


Affectionate-Chip269

Lützow. Cute slacker who can still (barely) be convinced to do secretary work. Plus, who doesn’t like that plushie? To actually get work done though, I would have to go with Ting An


Captain_Yamamoto

Ulrich von Hutten, for everything. Peak Wife ![img](emote|t5_3p20d|14001)


KitsuneRugby820

Enterprise is an unoriginal and uneducated option for the “Perfect” shipgirl. The ‘perfect’ shipgirl varies depending on what you’re looking at. Yanderes would have ships like Taihō, Roon, and Akagi under its belt; Tsunderes have Admiral Hipper, Hammann, and Shigure; Powerful, brooding types have Tosa, Tirpitz, and Colorado; Leaders include Nagato, Bismarck, and Brooklyn; Mystical types include Shinano, Graf Zeppelin, and AvP; Abusive/degrading types include Ajax, Bache, and Achilles; Easily flustered types include Myuki, Yūgure, and Sirius Scholarly types include Shangri-La, Hood, and Richelieu Sleepy types include Yūbari, Laffey, and Nowaki Motherly types include Yorktown, Hōshō, and FdG Idol types include Lexington, San Diego, and the R.N. C-class of destroyers Good all-arounders including Naka, Grenville, and An Shan And a few more classifications (but I’m kinda outta solid ideas at this point 🙃) It comes down to person preference, but for the love of god, don’t go for the number one cover art choice/literal face of the entire Azur Lane franchise, please…


TheGamingKid338

Shes litteraly my favourite character from the game


Shangri-la-la-la

I mean... do you need to ask?


TheGamingKid338

Im going to guess it's a certain essex class


datareclassification

Z23. Me and her have a lot in common... From the interests of academics to being the eldest in the family/class... Also, her very lovable Character. ~~fuck, I cannot win against her smile. It's like the purest thing I have ever set my eyes upon~~


Dominion-Star-92

One of them would have to be Fusou. She is nice, loving, you get Yamashiro with her, which is also good, and you can never go wrong with having a cat girl as a waifu.


Shoddy_Tomatillo_927

What do you mean by perfect ship?


TheGamingKid338

Your favourite ship/ one thats perfect for you like your ideal one


Shoddy_Tomatillo_927

There are many that fit that criteria for me. I guess the tied for first would be Fusou and Cassin both because they remind me of my wife. In the “Waifu” category it goes to all the Sheppy. Every single version of her. Kuuderes are hot yo.


GeForce_GTX_1050Ti

No love for August ;-; ?


MachineDog90

Lutzow, she loves naps


MilkyCupcake

Tosa, the forgotten floof.


Azurafallz

If I had to choose just one? Depends on the faction. Between all of them though? It's going to be Laffey since she's being carrying my team since I selected her.


Ultraseggs

Belfast needs no explanation


ThePhengophobicGamer

Minneapolis. New Orleans class looks so good irl, and they're tough, with New Orleans and Minneapolis losing their bows, but both were able to make it back to port with temporary bows, New Orleans was made of coconut logs. Plus, Minnie's Christmas skin is top tier.


VJNL

For me Bremerton. Bremerton may look like a lewd and hot waifu but her personality is something that I really love about her. Not gonna be some depressed mf but, I would love to have a girl like Bremerton in my life, just need someone to listen and consult with me ya know? 10/10 waifu


Sir_Gaea

Vanguard, her attitude just is perfect.


X1ll0

Prinz Eugen, because I like the ship irl


GEARSxWARRIOR

I vote for littorio bc she totally has chad energy for picking up woman so I can learn a thing or two from her.


Alarmed-Phase-4291

Atago, she is the opposite of me, big sister vs big brother personality, i can bully her with horror movies and be bullied by thicc thighs and bully takao and the smol cute things called destroyers, smart but cute af thicc but also smol -sometimes-


Jurassic2001

I'd have to go with my always number 1, Atago. She's the big sister type character very charming, very hot, but at the end of it all after a long day of doing my SKK duties I know that when I get home late, she'd be waiting for me, with a warm meal ready, with a beaming and beautiful smile, and would pamper me back to a full charge.


GreenDudewithaGun

San Francisco. Energetic and has a smile that brightens my day


Just-Patrick

Black Prince doesn't get enough love.


MaxedOut_TamamoCat

Too many to say. If forced? Currently Urich.


StarFlyXXL

Tirpitz, excluding the fact she is my faveroute ship IRL she is perfect in-game too. She is hardworking, tall and collected, she cares for everyone around her and works to protect those around her.


PhantomShot-25

Laffey for me, she has been here since the beginning(my stater choice) clam, never worried about anything and would be a great drinking buddy
