+ | ==== Arpeggio of Blue Steel -Ars Nova- ==== | |||
+ | ||||
+ | In 2038, a mysterious fleet of warships, who have lurked around the world in the decades decades before, went on the offensive against humanity. Modelled after ships that appeared in World War II, but possessing weaponry far superior to those in humanity's possession and protected by an indestructible barrier immune to whatever we have to throw at them, humanity quickly loses control of the seas and our military forces are annihilated in the desperate battles against them. The result was a world where humanity's presence in the oceans is no more, with communication via the seas cut off and humans isolated from each other, blockaded by the "Fleet of Fog". | |||
+ | ||||
+ | In 2054, a change became across the Fleet of Fog. The ships of the Fog, impersonal and faceless, started developing "Mental Models", human avatars capable of thinking in ways similar to human beings, with personalities unique to each Mental Model. One of these was the I-401, or, Iona, who made contact with Gunzō Chihaya to become his ship. Gunzō, with Iona and a small band of friends who now crew the I-401, as Blue Steel now seek to create a balance to this lopsided status quo with the Fleet of Fog, to bring a peace where humanity and the Fleet of Fog can happily coexist together. | |||
+ | ||||
+ | ''Takao'' was originally a heavy cruiser of the First Oriental Fleet within the Fleet of Fog. After Gunzō defeats her in battle, Takao falls in love with him and later joins the Blue Steel fleet. In the manga, she is almost destroyed for good by Zordan's fleet but is saved in the nick of time by a surprise attack from Iona and Hyūga. However, her core is salvaged by I-402 and delivered to Yamato, who assigns her to infiltrate a human facility in a special mission with the promise of being allowed to return to Gunzō's side once it is accomplished. The spin-off manga Salty Road follows Takao's days among other humans during said mission.<br /> | |||
+ | ||||
+ | In the Ars Nova anime adaptation, Takao sacrifices her vessel self to save Gunzō and the critically damaged I-401. This results in a super submarine called the Ars Nova with the processing capabilities of both Takao and Iona. At the end of the anime she regains her Mental Model form. In the Cadenza movie, she regains her ship after negotiating as a messenger to the Japanese government of the vibration warheads' codes with the help of Hyuga's skills and enters combat to save I-401 from the fog's student council and buys time in order for I-401 to defeat Musashi.<br /> | |||

ARP Takao — Japanese special premium Tier VIII cruiser.
A Fleet of Fog heavy cruiser modeled after Takao, the lead ship of the Imperial Japanese Navy's Takao-class cruisers. She lost a duel against I-401 while patrolling the Kumano Sea area, and after her defeat, she decided to leave the Fleet of Fog to join the Blue Steel privateers led by Gunzo Chihaya. Takao's Mental Model has a great deal of curiosity, which has led to her unwittingly collecting a lot of information about humanity. This warship has been modeled after Takao as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA-."
