* TookALevelInBadass: all the German ship girls are down-to-Earth and all business. When they're assigned to fight with the Combined Fleet once they arrive in Germany to assist them in their conflict against the NDP, all the German ship girls get to work and fight alongside Japanese and British ship girls alike.
