Warspite does the English returnee thing better than you, Kongou. She even looks more English, and seems to be more fluent in Japanese than Kongou is in English.

Completely outclassed.
Since when Warspite is a returnee when she's clearly not a Japanese.
Kongou was never a 'returnee'. Kongou is a Japanese who happens to be born in England. Correction: I guess English by blood but a Japanese national in ever way.

Kongou was born in England, too. Plus, that was a joke - but Warspite does do the stereotypical returnee thing better thsn Kongou. She looks more English, speaks me English, and is very foreign. Kongou? Not as much.

It could be argued that she's British-Japanese. English mother and Japanese Father.
I hope some doujin author makes Warspite constantly mistake Kongou for HMS Tiger, with the appropriate hijinks ensuing
(HMS Tiger was not actually based on Kongou, but a lot of people over 100 years have mistakenly claimed she was, so for the sake of having interesting doujin narratives, let's pretend that she was a brothersister from another mother)

To be fair the difference between a half/quarter-sister and a cousin isn't really that great. Plus Kongou having an actual English sister makes for a better story material than her having just English cousins.
Well Kongo was based loosely on the HMS Lion design, which is was HMS Tiger is an improvement on, in a similar way. Both Tiger and Kongo correct the firing arc problem of the third turret from the Lion, Princess Royal, and Queen Mary (all more or less cousins or half-sister ships).
Warspite.Since you've taken the time to come to Japan, what say you try learning Japanese...You can converse with me, if you like!while using English as seldom as possible?I'll do just that!Th-...that's quite all right. I'm managing nicely with Iowa.When in Rome, do as the Romans do.But wouldn't even you forget your English if you don't use it now and then, Kongou?
