<Worldview>.
The story takes place on a blue planet, unknown to us, where 71% of the earth's surface is covered with water.
The Sirens, a deformed enemy from another world, suddenly appear. To counter the overwhelming power of this foreign enemy, mankind has formed a global alliance called "Azur Lane," centered on four major camps.

Union" that respects freedom
Royal," which values glory
Iron-Blooded," which praises unity
Shigesakura," which honors the bonds that bind us together

Using the "Cube," the collective wisdom of these people, the girls were born with the power of warships of steel.
Sometimes heroic, sometimes beautiful, sometimes dynamic, they overcame the barriers between the different camps, and their activities stopped the invasion of the Sirens, and their power seemed to have been almost completely defeated.

However, whether it was because of the difference in philosophy as to whether the Sirens' power should be used or not, or perhaps it was because of their thoughts as human beings, rather than as Funé, the two groups were unable to come to an agreement.
Some of the forces represented by "Shigesakura" and "Tekketsu" broke away from "Azur Lane" and started activities as "Red Axis.

In order to monitor the movement of "Red Axis", "Azur Lane" established a new base in the middle of the ocean and gathered its forces.
The situation is in a state of crisis. No one knows the fate of the girls yet. ......

＜Introduction
Blessed are the blue seas!

The girls of Azur Lane,
The girls of "Azur Lane" have defeated the great offensive of the mysterious enemy "Sirens" who came from outside the world.
However, the battle will always be the same.
Just as in the past when mankind fought for supremacy over the seas, "Azur Lane" and "Red Axis" were at odds with each other due to differences in ideology.
And time passed...
