Also, after conquering Hawaii, there are two events—one increases his command points by 30, and the other upgrades "Great Art of War" to "Supreme Art of War."

Scarlett Tougou / スカーレット・東郷
Command Points: 480 (510)

Recruitment: None.

Skill: "Aerial Superiority" (大制空) — Increases fighter damage of allies, in the same combat zone, by 10%.

Nagumo Keiko / 南雲 圭子
Command Points: 330 (360)

Recruitment: None.

Skill: "Education" (教育) — Increases experience gained by allies, in the same combat zone, by 40%.

Growth Rate: +4%

Comments: Her bonuses, coupled with her growth rate, make her a strategic tank. Does not have offensive potential, but "Education" makes her worth deploying regularly.

Tanaka Raizou / 田中 雷蔵
Command Points: 180 (330)

Recruitment: None.

Skill: "Blaster" (爆走) — Can move twice during "Player Strategy Phase."

Growth Rate: +6%

Comments: Starts weak, but becomes a powerful cannon-based admiral through events. His second event increases his third slot by 40%, and gives 30 command points; Retia Adolf's second event increases his fourth slot by 40%; and events with Coyote Malar, Mirja, and Koo Rothsch give 30 command points each. Finally, an event after building three "Breast Shrine" gives 30 command points.

Yamamoto Mugen / 山本 無限
Command Points: 510 (540)

Recruitment: None.

Skill: "Public Peace Boost" (治安改善) — Increases the public peace of a region by 2.

Growth Rate: +1%

Comments: After 25 turns, his health will randomly worsen during post-battle. Eventually, he will be lost (again by random chance) and replaced by Koga Hitomi who retains his levels.

Koga Hitomi / 古賀 ひとみ
Command Points: 510 (540)

Recruitment: After 25 turns, deploy Yamamoto Mugen until he exhausts himself. (There will be three events of him getting hospitalized.) She will soon replace him while keeping his levels.

Skill: "Public Peace Boost" (治安改善) — Increases the public peace of a region by 2.

Skill: "Berserk" (凶暴士) — Increases all damages by 20%. Activates a phase after taking damage.

Growth Rate: +4%

Shibagami / 柴神
Command Points: 960

Recruitment: His recruitment event is available after Mikado performs the "Kamikaze" ceremony.

Skill: "God's Miracle" (神の奇跡) — Increases all damages by 30% against disasters.

Skill: "Interference" (妨害) — Decreases missile damages by 300.

Growth Rate: None.

Comments: His first slot is fixed with "Dog Palace," leaving only 330 command points spare. If the Japanification Plan was accepted, Mikado will eventually replace him. He does not gain levels, and therefore has no growth rate.

Mikado / 帝
Command Points: 960

Recruitment: Accept the Japanification Plan, and then conquer 14 regions. She will eventually replace Shibagami depending on how many beginning-of-the-turn events obstruct her automatic recruitment event. Alternatively, if the Japanification Plan was refused, she temporarily replaces Shibagami following events related to manipulating the Fugaku monster. Joins with no experience unlike her predecessor.

Skill: "God's Miracle" (神の奇跡) — Increases all damages by 30% against disasters.

Skill: "Interference" (妨害) — Decreases missile damages by 300.

Growth Rate: +4%

Ugaki Sakura / 宇垣 さくら
Command Points: 360

Recruitment: Available after allying with The Third Reich of Dokutz and The Republic Empire of Italin.

Skill: "Frontline Diplomacy" (前線外交) — Makes a region less likely to be invaded.

Growth Rate: +2%

Comments: First, he does not have a fourth slot. Second, his bonuses will change each time he is defeated in battle, and then remodeled. His first slot will become "HP +20%" upon receiving a prosthetic arm. Then (after losing another arm) his first two slots will become "All Stats +0%." Next, with a repaired head, the previously mentioned slots will respectively become "Laser Damage +20%" and "Missile Damage +20%." Finally, he will end as a big-headed robot with "Cannon Damage +40%," "HP +40%," and "Radar -80%." So he can ultimately be trashed until he gains desirable bonuses—generally, the last two ones.

Yuubari / 夕張
Command Points: None.

If defeated during invasions, she will be removed from your navy; Carol Kiring, Dorothy Neumann, or Retia Adolf can restore her through events. Also, after maxing her level, she will gain her second slot, which is fixed with a ship providing only "Great Air Defense."

Taira Eichi (平良 英知)
Command Points: 450

Recruitment: He will only join you if you accepted Nipponification plan.

Skill: 支援団体 "Support Groups": +20% healing per turn, even if not stationed at a dock

Notes


 * Growth rate +2%
 * Will eventually withdraw. Make sure to not use him and REMOVE ALL HIS BATTLESHIPS if you want to use them, as he takes all ships he's assigned with him when he quits!
 * Soon after quitting he will take over Manilla 2000 in a rebellion against Japan.

Fukuhara Izumi (福原 いずみ)
Command points 390(420)

Rinfa
Command Points: 300

Recruitment: Defeat her in battle for her recruitment event.

Skill: まっか "Deep Red" (as in communist colors): This is a handicap. Rinfa will only deal 10% damage to the soviets (Do not use her against soviet armies). If all her events are completed, she will lose this handicap.

Notes: Growth rate +2%

Ranfa
Command Points: 300

Recruitment: Conquer Nanking. Her recruitment event, 「反日教育のたまもの」, will appear after you have Hiraga Tsunami who's recruitable on Turn 5.

Skill: None

Notes: Growth rate +2%

Hanitora
Command Points: 150(180)

Recruitment: Choose the event 「北京での出会い」 in Beijing. And then conquer A Baoa Chongqing after photos (of Tougou having sex with her) are spread. Finally, sometime after public-peace is restored in all Chun empire's regions, the event 「日本一有名なスパイ」 will appear; choose it to recruit her.

Skill: 有名人 "Celebrity": Increases security in the region by 2 more "units" than other commanders can. Her initial skil.

Skill: 女殺し2 "Woman Slayer 2": +10% damage when attacking female admirals, -10% damage taken when being attacked by them. (Do her events to obtain)

Skill: 男殺し2 "Man Slayer 2": +10% damage when attacking male admirals, -10% damage taken when being attacked by them. (Do her events to obtain)


 * Hanitora seem to be the worst of any Admirals at the first glance, but fielding her gives you 4 events after a few battles, each event improves one of her ability slots by 40%, meaning in the end at level 10 she actually has positive parameters. Her command points though still leave much to be desired, which limits her 'weapons' of choice drastically.


 * To deploy her in battle while keeping her safe from attacks as much as possible, perhaps 2 submarines is feasible, even if that wastes 30 CP. In any case she's not an excellent commander for useful offensive firepower, perhaps good for support attacks when turtling against a certain nation at borders.


 * She can get only ONE of the two optional batle skills - 女殺し2 (When opponent is a woman +10% to attack power, and -10% damage received) or 男殺し2 (When opponent is a male +10% to attack power, and -10% damage received).
 * Field her and let her return alive -> event 艦隊戦は専門外 -> 2nd slot +40%
 * Field her and let her get shot down -> event もっと成長したいの -> 3rd slot +40%, command point +30
 * Field her and let her return alive again -> event 時には素直に -> 4th slot +40%, skill 男殺しII

Higuchi Gouyoku
Command points: 240

Recruitment: Conquer Nanking, probably need to wipe Higuchi's fleet. After winning, he autojoins (no need to talk).

Skill: 痴安改善 "Unrest Increase":  This is a handicap. No public peace recovery whatsoever where he's stationed. This also nullifies the effects of all peace raising skills such as those possessed by Mugen/Hitomi, Lydia, Hanitora etc. This is the same as Elfhilda's "Dai Abare" skill.


 * This is the admiral who betrays Japan in favor of Chun in the opening cutscene because of being blackmailed with photos of pedophilia with Hanitora.


 * You may choose to fire him in his first event.


 * Don't station him in a region where peace hasn't fully recovered yet. You can station him in a place that has max peace however, he doesn't seem to cause it to go down; he only stalls peace recovery.

Tenten(項 天天)
Command Points: 180 (Not Customizable)

Recruitment: Capture in battle at Beijing using the capture ship.

Skill: "Made in Chun" - Able to attack 2 enemies in one turn?

Stat Growth: 2%

Notes:

Command Points: 180 (Not Customizable)

Recruitment: Capture in battle at A Baoa Chongqing using capture ship.

Skill: None

Stat Growth: 2%

Notes:
 * Can be quite an effective tank in the early parts of the game towards mid game due to extremely high hp. Lackluster in every other department though. [Subjective]
 * Doing her H event will add a sizeable bonus to the skill affecting her first and only ship, prolonging her usefulness.

Stats at level 2:

David Kahnhawk
Command Points: 330

Recruitment: Once adjacent to Gatesland, at some point the Gamerican attacking force from Gatesland will have him. Capture him by annihilating his fleet then talk to recruit. Perhaps requires not entering the CORE route (i.e. capture Canada and wait for him to attack from Gatesland).

Dorothy Neumann
Command Points: 390

Skill: None Recruitment: Conquer Canada before USJ, then take over Gamerica. A special event at the top of the list in Event Phase will be available after automated events in Canada, choose it for her.

In CORE route (taking over USJ before Canada), you simply have to beat CORE. Automated events will take place, until Tougou decides to go on a vacation to Canada, and ends up meeting Dorothy and the Canadians. A battle against space monsters will then occur, and victory results in Dorothy, Deganawida and Black Horse joining you. Notes
 * Growth +4%
 * Useful because she has a wide mix of bonus with a high growth rate.

Deganawidah

 * Clear all the events raise Hannah's command points by +3


 * Growth rate +2%

Command Points: 480

Recruitment: President Revolt route, surrender and join after conquer Washington

Skill: Luv+ Attack +10% when deployed in the same battlezone with Carol Kiring

The slot bonus are very high, giving to him a surprising equal or better damage output than Retia or Zhukov despite having less command points. Good candidate for the Love clear bonus.

 * Clear all the events of Agni unlock the Ass-Attack that rise power by +20% against women

Jakarta(ジャカルタ)
Command Points: 300

Recruitment: Capture during battle at Malay Tiger (Capture Ship)

Skill: Repair - Repairs 20% of maximum health every turn instead of 10%. Notes:
 * Growth rate +2%

Parupuna Karaado (パルプナ・カラード)
Command Points: 0

Recruitment: Skill: 怪獣姫 (Monster Princess) Regenerate 40% HP per turn (can stack with the repair building)
 * 1) If we capture Eliza Britten in Suez, after conquering South Africa talk twice with the ex-South Africa's gobernor
 * 2) If we don't capture Eliza Britten in Suez, she ask Monty to use Parupuna. It seems that if we defeat Parupuna it can be captured and recruited. If we are defeated or retreat without combat she die from the psychic strain of control a space monster to big for her power.
 * 3) May not be recruitable if you defeat the space monster Eazauna first.


 * Growth rate +6%
 * It seems that the Space Monsters cannot be removed (but I cant' imagine how a shy girl like she can command a "normal " fleet anyway)
 * Do all the events with Parupuna upgrade the monster in the first slot by +20%

Ermi Doenitz
Command Points: 360

Recruitment: Sign the tri-pact with Italin and Deukutsch. 2 turns later she will join.

Skill: No inherent ones.

Skill: "Dive", comes from the submarine fixed at her 1st slot, that makes her fleet to be impossible to target without anti-sub abilities or unless subs are the only fleets left in the zone. Must not have any non-submarine unit in the fleet to make it work.

Stat Growth: 4%


 * Her removable U-boats are weaker than even the initial Japanese submarines, so consider replacing them when the first Japanese subs are researched and you can spare the resources for replacements.
 * Her locked ship is unique in that it is a submarine ship with Laser (only certain fish units has it) and Missile attacks (No other ships has it?) After an event the bonus will be upgraded to "All stats +60%." Unfortunately it is still a rather weak ship overall even at Level 10.
 * Your first submarine character. Unfortunately, due to the lack of bonus on her other slots (not even Tekkou bonus!), she eventually becomes weaker than any other captain with at least 300 Command Points and better bonus/abilities.

Retia Adolf
Command Points: 540 (570)

Recruitment: Accept the tri-pact with Dokutsu and Italin. Do not conquer Moscow, Washington, or any region adjacent to Dokutsu and Italin. Also, finish Ermi Doenitz's two events before Dokutsu falls. When the latter happens, allow her to return to Berlin. After rescuing Retia Adolf, do her two events involving Tanaka Raizou. Then do Ermi Doenitz's event, which unlocks Retia Adolf's recruitment event.

Skill: None


 * Growth Rate +2%
 * Her Command Points exceed Tougou and Yamamoto's. She probably has the highest Command Points after Shibagami and Mikado—who are both restricted by high Command Point demanding fixed ships.
 * Has high Command Points, but no fixed slots. She may be outfitted to suit various situations—such as weather conditions and tough enemy formations. Probably the most versatile commander; her downside is having lackluster slot bonuses and no inherent skills.

Eisen Manstein
Command points: 450 (480)

Recruitment: Some turns after Soviet's counterattack against Dekutsch, will attack as a Soviet's admiral (if you're in war with Soviet, of course). Destroy his fleet to capture. Next talk to him in events phase to recruit him. Retia Adolf must be recruited as an admiral before you do this, also might need to do her first event after recruitment (where she participates in the Japanese Imperial Conference).

Skill: 鉄の城 "Iron Fortress": 30% reduction to damage taken from tekkou


 * Growth rate 2%
 * Has a very rare skill that offers defence even against cannons!

El Rommel
Command points: 420

Recruitment: Avaiable on all routes except Ultimate Idol. Wait until after Dekutsch has fallen (no regions left). Attack North Africa and eliminate the fleet to the extreme left to rescue Rommel, then talk to him to recruit.

Skill: None

Stats at level 0:


 * After clearing all 4 of events, you are able to research a special Rommel battleship. It is one of the two battleships that only costs 135 command points to equip, but otherwise it isn't very good.

Nozomi
Command Points: 0 (Not Customizable)

Recruitment: Occupy Aztec and do her events in the event phase until her h-scene. After a few turns, her recruitment event will appear.

Skill: "Goddess": Recovers 40% of maximum HP every turn instead of 10%.

"Super Barrier X2": Blocks up to 1800 laser damage. Inherited from her ships.

Stat Growth: 4% Notes:
 * Dual super barriers makes her practically immune to any laser attacks save for a few space disasters. Field her against laser heavy armies.
 * Possess high stat modifiers but subpar ships. Easy to maintain though and can be fairly powerful in the right circumstances.

Ælfhild
Command points: 330

Recruitment: A few turns after she's introduced, she'll randomly attack one of your territories (Usually one of the Chun territories). Annihilate the entire enemy force (if there's even one survivor, she won't be captured and attack again later) capture her. If you fail to capture her, she'll attack at a later time again (just like undefeated natural disasters do). After capturing her, talk to her twice to recruit.

Skill: 大あばれ "Massive Rampage": This is a handicap. Peace level of the planet she's stationed at will not recover whatsoever. This will also completely nullify all other peace raising skills such as those possessed by Mugen/Hitomi, Lydia, Hanitora etc.

Stats Growth: 4%


 * Fairly powerful admiral with 3 types of bonuses but with 150 points left to spend on them, utilizing the bonuses from all 3 slots will be difficult.
 * Try not to use her for frontline defense at a newly conquered territory until it has its public peace levels fully recovered.
 * Her skill prevents recovery of peace levels, but doesn't decrease it, meaning it's safe to station her at fully peaceful territories.

Gigamacro
Command Points: 0 (Ships are not equippable)

Recruitment: After getting a territory adjacent to Hawaii, there will be an event where a girl will go missing in Hawaii. Then do the following event: 真空中の女の子らしきもの, and then the subsequent events that appear; all this BEFORE conquering Hawaii. Once Tougou takes in Microlita, do her events until you meet King Gigamacro. Then take over Hawaii, and do Microlita's new event (where Gigamacro will fight a sea monster in his giant form). That will make Gigamacro join you.

Skill: 神の奇跡 "God's Miracle": + 30% attack power vs. natural disasters

Stats at level 10:


 * Gigamacro fights by himself and cannot equip any ships in any slot at all. He also starts at level 10 (max). His command points are therefore zero and his stats cannot be modified (unless there are events which do that?). Above table displays these stats as he has no ship slots.

Mel To Ladin
Command Points: 450

Recruitment: Conquer Turkey once they become hostile (after taking over Suez). Autojoins after that (no need to talk).

Skill: COPY: Copies and obtains the skills of the general stationed in the same star (?)

Stats at level 0:


 * Growth rate + 6%
 * Her country is actually not hostile, the territory is marked as hostile as Turkey is overrun with monsters and the "Forbidden Box" that spawns space monsters. War against Turkey begins when she requests you to destroy the monsters and the box.
 * She seems quite weak at several occasions, but upon achieving higher levels, and considering the skill she copies, she can be the deadliest weapon of all. Her stats will be a small increase at high levels, and if she copies Tongou's "Supreme Art of War", or Katherine or Mirja's friends ability, the boost would be very high. However, the copy is luck-based, so it is highly unreliable.
 * One way of controlling her COPY ability is to station her with an admiral until she copies the skill and then isolating her in a single star. Her skill will be locked in and won't revert back to COPY until you station her with someone else. (On my test, the skill lasted for 10+ turns without changing back)

Visuberu
Command Points: 270 (300)

Recruitment: Talk to Purropetto during event phase. After a few turns, his shop opens in the event phase. Choose his event and pick the first option to recruit her (2nd option is Alps), paying 100 resources. She can also be recruited after buying Purropetto's 10,000 resource ship for 10 resources.

Skill: None

Stats Growth: 2%


 * WILL LEAVE AFTER FIELDING HER 10 TIMES IN BATTLE. TO PREVENT THIS, MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE ALL HER EVENTS BEFORE SHE LEAVES.
 * Starts out with extremely powerful laser slots making her ideal with high-attack laser ships (such as the laser battleships).
 * Completing her events raises command points by 30

Alps
Command points: 270 (300)

Recruitment: Talk to Purropetto during event phase. After a few turns, his shop opens in the event phase. Choose his event and pick the second option to recruit her (1st option is Visuberu), paying 100 resources. She can also be recruited after buying Purropetto's 10,000 resource ship for 10 resources..

Skill: None.

Stats Growth: 2%


 * WILL LEAVE AFTER FIELDING HER 10 TIMES IN BATTLE. TO PREVENT THIS, MAKE SURE YOU COMPLETE ALL HER EVENTS BEFORE SHE LEAVES.
 * You seem to need to let her get destroyed a few times in order to get her final event, which makes it harder to clear her.
 * The Missile version of Visuberu, but her bonus spread is honestly worse. Maybe she is useful if you need some extra power trying to take down Rabaul, but you should probably get Visuberu instead.

Coyote Mararu
Command points: 300

Recruitment: Joins after you defeat the Mongols (Rance's faction). After that, talk to her once to recruit.

Skill: 爆走 "Blaster" Allows for 2 movements between star regions instead of 1.

Stats Growth: 4%


 * Very similar to Tanaka Raizou, she is also a Tekkou focused character with Blaster.
 * Unfortunately, due to her first locked slot, she is unable to be used as a submarine commander.
 * One of her events increases Raizou's command points.
 * Due to her high growth rate, having all 4 of her ships be Tekkou is generally overkill. You may wish to use the 2nd slot (which is Radar bonus) for something else, like a Barrier ship.

Charlotte Partheney
Command Points: 150 (210)

Recruitment: Conquer Arabia, then Suez (ie obtainable only through Doketsu route). After some turns, only if Dokutsu still controls Paris, a scene happens about a revolt in Madagascar. Conquer Madagascar; she will be recruitable in the event phase.

Skill: ビルメ　- Damage +1% for every 10 HP above the target enemy. Up to 100%.


 * Stats Growth: 6%
 * After her 2nd event, put her in battle and she gains 30 Command Points and the ビルメ Skill.
 * Doing her 4th and 5th events raise her Command Points by 30 each.

Clear Game Bonus Admirals
史羅 〆 (史羅 〆)

Recruitment: Get True Ending 1, then choose 大帝国広報担当 in the event phrase

Command points: 300

Skill: 岩砕木 - Decreases damage from cannons by 30%

Notes
 * Growth rate +4%
 * They are the maids that serve the Empress.
 * Kind of useless. 300 command points is lower than Custom Admirals, all Radar bonus is redundant and her special ability isn't great without anything else to back her up.

Astro Panda
Command Points: 300

Recruitment: Get True Ending 2, then pick 意外と目は怖い at event phrase.

Skill: 前線外交 "Frontline Diplomacy" - Same as Ugaki Sakura.


 * Growth rate +2%
 * Very good on Japanization routes because you can only get 1 Frontline Diplomacy character there. Even on non-Japanization, it is still a powerful ability
 * Slot bonuses are a little hard to use due to his low command points. He probably doesn't have enough power to break through most planet defense forces but putting 1 battleship/2 cruisers and 2 barrier ships and he can do good at defense with his skill.

Astro Cat
Command Points: 480

Recruitment: Get Ending 3 (The Best Gift), then pick 空中三千回転 at event phrase.

Skill: None


 * Growth rate +1%
 * Extremely high Command Points (only certain characters like Adolf are higher) which means it has a use even compared to Custom Admirals. However, bonus and growth rate are so low they might as well be non-existent. This also means you don't have to worry about levelling him up though, and can just use him when you need him.

Astro Monkey
Command Points: 180

Recruitment: Get Ending 4 (Date with Everyone), then pick クリア特典進化の時 at event phrase.

Skill: None


 * Growth rate +10%
 * Very high growth rate but low command points means it is hard to raise it to that point. Without fishes, the best you can do is a Pocket Battleship or Aircraft in a slot, and a Cannon ship in another slot. 0 cost fish ships are nice on this guy but everyone else wants them too so it's hard to justify giving fishes to him.

Astro Corgi
Command Points: 360

Recruitment: Get Ending 5 (Together with Mikado), then pick もふもふ要員その２ at event phrase.

Skill: None


 * Growth rate +8%
 * The negative bonus aren't as bad as they look, you can just think of them as empty slots as long as you arrange your ships properly. Once you reach level 4 they become bonuses. An okay character, probably better than a lot of early game characters such as Rinfa and Ranfa.

Hapsburg Lady
Command Points: 360

Recruitment: Get Ending 8 (Ultimate Idol), then pick 敵かな味方かな at event phrase.

Skill: 敏腕P - Increases all allies damage in the current battle zone by 10% (stacks with Tougo/Scarlett's skill)


 * Growth rate +2%
 * It's Goebbels with a wig.
 * Good skill (same as Tougo's) but having only 1 slot is a major pain, because it means no slots for barrier ships which means she's easily shot down. You will usually try to put in one of these
 * A battleship, especially barrier ships or the first Super battleship (at exactly 360 command points)
 * A submarine, which will allow her to stay safe from attacks. Don't try this if the enemy can kill subs.
 * She's a decent candidate for the Love clear game bonus, but not the best one.
