Expected Star Trek, was disappointed.

[QUOTE=D3vils Buddy;31533042]Expected Star Trek, was disappointed.[/QUOTE] So a ship that was already 30 years old by the time Star Trek came out, is superceded by some B level TV show's ship. Not to mention that I assume you cannot have submarines in space, and why would it be Japanese.
What's the story behind this? Why would the Japanese, one of our closest allies, be attacking a US carrier group?

A swedish sub sank the USS Ronald Reagan in training, why should this be impossible?

I always find it interesting how Americans and our culture are interpreted in Japanese media. Like in GITS, Cowboy Bebop, and FLCL.

Ok, were shall I begin? 1. Those are American sub officers 2. The Enterprise is a carrier, not a Cruiser although the do show flight-decks, the don't show a carrier, the helo's are SH 60s by the looks of it, and don't have to much combat effectiveness other then Sub Hunting.
Needs more whales.

You'd have to ask the creators. I believe they deliberately wanted the sub officers to wear JMSDF uniforms and U.S. Navy service caps. 2. Was there anything in that Enterprise was called a "cruiser"? Uh, ASW is exactly why they want the SH-60s to be out there. I got the version with English subtitles which explains things a bit better. Still pretty ridiculous though, but at least it's more entertaining than seeing USS Cheyenne sink the entire PLA Navy in Tom Clancy's SSN.

I support the Swedish, they seem like the kind of people that can fuck shit up.
