Japan doesn't have AEGIS cruisers, but JDS Kongou (DDG-173) is visually very similar to USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51). Colosseum, how do you explain the Kaiten by the aft exhausts?

Also, an advanced mine hunting vehicle designed along the lines of the Japanese Ko-Hyoteki minisub sits on the starboard rail.

He's referring to a Japanese anime called Zipang where a JMSDF...uhhh, let's call it a Kongo-and-a-half (conceptually it's identical to Atago) goes back in time to 1942 and tries to get the Japanese to surrender under more favorable terms to the Allies...but things get out of hand when half the crew decides they'd rather use their firepower to win the war for Japan and mutinies.
