At first glance, it looks like a normal anime, but the curious thing was the staff's decision to make the anime only eight episodes long (which goes against the usual anime cours scheme of 11-13 episodes). The anime's production specifically wanted fewer episodes to increase the animation quality and tell a more compact story.

The anime is based on a web browser game released in 2013 and is set in a world where humanity has lost control of the seas. The threat that has taken over the seas is the Abyssal Fleet.

Synopsis

One day, a Kan-musume arrives at Chinjufu, a special-class destroyer. Her name is Fubuki, who becomes the central character of the story, recounting her days of training as well as her missions in battles alongside other ship-girls against these mysterious enemies.
