It seems like a bizarre play onKantai Collection, a popular online game from Kadokawa featuring personified moe warships, but it only gets stranger the further down this rabbit hole you go....

We’ve had some pretty good mouse and keyboard options over the years, especially from Razer with theirQuartzandHello Kittycollections, but finding a cute controller from PlayStation or Xbox has proved to be a bit more difficult....
