Azur Lane: Queen's Orders (2023)

[アズールレーン クイーンズオーダーズ]

Studio: Yostar Pictures
Starring: Sumire Uesaka, Asuka Nishi, Yui Horie
Episodes: 2

Synopsis:
Queen Elizabeth agrees to let Valiant be queen for a day to get a taste of what the job really entails.

Impressions:
This is adapted from the manga spinoff of the same title, which centers on Queen Elizabeth and the other members of the Royal Navy. The first episode puts Valiant on the throne briefly to discover that the role of queen is more than she bargained for while the second episode has Queen Elizabeth try to manage the various factions in a get-together where competition is taking the place of unity. It's pretty harmless fluff and the second episode benefits from a larger share of the cast, but unless you're a die-hard fan of Queen Elizabeth or just really have to consume all Azur Lane media, this doesn't have that much to it. Take it or leave it.

Rating:
50/50
