Azur Lane - Sakura Past and Future

In the year 202X, an unexpected accident changed everything.

During what should have been a routine day, a curious green-furred cat scientist accidentally pressed the wrong button on one of her experimental machines. The result? A catastrophic dimensional anomaly now known as the Cascade. Within seconds, fourteen Kansen from the Sakura Maritime Self-Defense Force (SMSDF)-modern shipgirls created to defend their world-were suddenly torn away from their reality.

Some were in the middle of training exercises, others were still moored at their homeport, and a few were en route to their port call. None of them expected to be transported to an unfamiliar world-a place of unfamiliar skies, strange waters, and signals that made no sense to their sensors.

Fortunately, through training, cooperation, and sheer determination, they managed to establish contact and found an uninhabited island where they could temporarily set up a safe haven. Though they had survived the transition, they were now stranded in a world they didn't understand.

This world was known as Azur Lane.

Here, Kansen also exist-but with the form, armament, and doctrines of mid-20th-century warships. In this realm, the mysterious Sirens are rarely seen, but a bitter war is already being fought between two powerful factions: Crimson Axis and Azur Lane.
