*** [[spoiler:The mission to capture an abyssal would succeed, netting the team the one who led the attacks on Okinawa. This came at the cost of Shoukaku and Hibiki, who were killed in action. When Yvonne interrogates the abyssal, the latter identifies herself as Yorktown, causing the former to go into a fit of rage and attack the latter. A [=JMSDF=] officer managed to overhear the interrogation, and in a panic, reports to his superiors that the abyssals are [=USN=] shipgirls. When the Nationalists get wind of this, they spin it so that it comes out as "The abyssals are led by [=USN=] ship girls." Yvonne is essentially kicked out of the country, and the US is treated as a pariah. Meanwhile the Japanese ship girls would then be sent off on a mission to Ironbottom Sound, with neither them or their commanders aware that it is a trap set up by Arizona for express purpose of using the girls as sacrifices for the Abyssals. A BigDamnHeroes moment would've ensued, where Washington would manage to get in contact with Thresher and had the latter launch the nukes from the submarine she had been inspecting.]]

** There were points from the post-restart writing committee that were never implemented because the restart never went beyond Chapter 6.
*** The primary one: [[spoiler:We find out exactly just how ''Washington'' was summoned and how the CIA got their hands on her without the [=USN=] ship girl program even knowing that she existed. A group of college students, completely unaffiliated with the [=USN=], managed to summon her.

A crossover is when two mediums are explicitly stated to be interacting, for example Kan Colle and Arpeggio. This is an expy.
