Red's ramblings:
a) I am willing to sponsor translation of other Arpeggio dojins; interested translators PM me and we can discuss the terms).
b) I want a second season!
c) so is Arpeggio a copycat for KanColle or vice versa?

E-hentai tip of the gallery:

7) Correct order is important. If you see a gallery with incorrect order (including front cover not being the very first page), you can upload a correctly ordered replacement. Remember: details do matter! You can learn more about what are the valid reason to replace a gallery at https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=19709

"c) so is Arpeggio a copycat for KanColle or vice versa?"

Vice versa if anything, Arpeggio manga started in 2009, Kancolle is from 2013.

Okay. Now let's translate that other Moe Blue Steel doujin that DOESN'T have dreamsex.

"c) so is Arpeggio a copycat for KanColle or vice versa?"
As pointed out, Arpeggio is older. There's also the matter of media. The only similarity they have is 'navy ships as girls' and even then only KanColle is run-of-the-mill mecha-musume. Arpeggio goes for the full-on bishoujo archetype approach.

And thus, through great sacrifice, Takao finally got to show Gunzou her engine.
In ga--...simulations.
