Taiho was a good-looking ship. It's a shame there were so few photos of her.

I agree with irrelevant about the Takeo class, very handsome ships. I also like Akagi and the Zuikaku/Shokaku carriers.

I vote Taiho, carrier-wise. With Tone and Fuso coming after that.

Personally, I disqualify all carriers as their design purpose results in variations of the
"cheesebox on a raft" description given the USS Monitor. It's impossible to combine
elegant lines and a flight deck.

Myokos look better than Takeos...no arguement. Thing is, ya have to like natural breasts, not California implants. Takeos are totally top heavy. Look weird.[;)]
