"A sharp-eyed reader noticed a somewhat embarrassing slip-up on page 14. The 2nd line was not, in fact, about abandoning duty to their country, but on proper usage of handheld explosive devices. The error has been corrected and the offending nut has been sacked. We thank you for your patience."

Alternate History tag, perhaps? 1937 doesn't line up with the mention of air raids (the Nationalist air force lacked the pilots and materiel to operate effectively beyond their borders). Also, Japan/pseudo-Japan seems to already be on the ropes by the time the story begins, what with the schoolgirl suicide units and all.

Seconding what that other person said, this is what Kancolle should've been like instead (maybe in some alternate universe it is). Ironically the author also draws fanart of kancolle, but it's obvious their own original story is way better.
Thanks so much to the translation team! I remember finding this in pixiv years ago and going through all 10 chapters in one sitting at midnight, I had never read a story like this before.

Is this a WW2 story?

Not really, one photo says "1XX7" so either something before or after.

Nanking

Only problem is the fact that was between december 1937 and january 1938.

I think it's more about the second sino-japanese war in general, even thought that begun in july.

Oh, had no idea about that event. Thank you for information.

Better than Hai Furi, should say.

That's kinda like comparing apples with zombie rats.

Well you say 'depressing' but you cant possibly get sad about something you can't even understand! I don't get what is going on so I don't feel a thing.

I'm kinda lost on this one,
I can't comprehend it for most of the part nor can I catch any undertones
Can any one help me out in understanding the series?

I can see that the author is trying to do something more artistic but this ended up feeling quite pretentious, at least to me.

If you don't get this you're simply a low-iq pedestrian. You need a very good understanding of alternate history world war 2 fiction and postmodernist expression theory to grasp this series. It's okay to just give this one a pass and go back to your narutos and citruses while the REAL adults discuss this manga.

I for one find it deeply engaging.

I think this is an interesting comic, but please, get the fuck over yourself.

They were being sarcastic a la the Rick and Morty meme.

Please do not call this a "comic". Manga is an art form, whereas comics are infantile bed literature for 12 year olds who sleep in race car beds.

Are you implying someone in "To Die In June" is going to die?

I'm absolutely horrified by the prospect.
