* TheMenFirst: Deconstructed with Admiral Shimada. He prioritised the lives of his ship girls and had them retreat over ordering them into a SenselessSacrifice of a battle they had no chance of winning. Unfortunately, because said sacrifice would in theory have bought time for the civilians to evacuate, he ended up disgraced and hated both InUniverse and out.

Putting the welfare and lives of your men first and refusing to throw their lives away for nothing sounds noble at first glance, but doing so does not occur in a vacuum and has consequences.
