[Fleet Collection BGM] Kantai Collection’s famous and popular tracks

Daytime battle (Gun and torpedo battle, commence!)Usami Hiroshi

1.05 Naval gun and torpedo battle, commence! (Cannons and Torpedoes, Fire!)

This is a battle BGM familiar to KanColle fans.

Played during daytime naval battles in the game, it features a grand, dramatic arrangement centered on orchestration.

Woodwinds and brass—especially oboe and horn—stand out, heightening the tension of naval combat.

Its thrilling, fast-paced melody line conveys the intensity and dynamism of battle.

Composed by Hiroshi Usami, it was released around 2013–2014 and is included on albums such as “Kantai Collection -KanColle- Original Sound Track vol.I [Akatsuki].” It’s used in key battle scenes in the game and partially in the anime as well.

It’s a perfect track not only for playing KanColle, but also for times when you want to focus or get pumped up.

Enemy fleet sighted!Ōkoshi Kaori

[Kancolle OST] 13 Enemy Fleet Spotted! [CD Audio]

The BGM used for the boss battle in the spring 2014 event “Sortie the Recon Planes!” It’s an arrangement of “Sortie the Recon Planes!” The original track features a koto and evokes a distinctly Japanese atmosphere.

While retaining that traditional flair, this version adds elements like the shakuhachi and ramps up the tempo, resulting in a faster, more upbeat piece that’s perfect for a boss fight.

Beyond the ShoreŌkoshi Kaori

Wave-11 Beyond the Shore

This piece, which plays in the game Kantai Collection, is a grand instrumental track composed by Kaori Ogoe.

Featuring a weighty orchestral sound, it brilliantly conveys both the tension of naval battles and the romance of adventure.

It was first used as the E-5 boss battle BGM in the Autumn 2016 event “Order Issued! Third Fleet Operation Doctrine,” and has remained a deeply memorable track for players.

Elevating key combat scenes in the game, this work is recommended not only for KanColle fans but also for anyone who loves epic music.

Why not immerse yourself in the world of KanColle and imagine a fleet pressing onward across the seas?

SortieUsami Hiroshi

Kancolle OST: 02 Sortie (CD Audio)

The BGM used on the sortie selection and general sea area map screens.

It’s also known as “Across the Open Sea.” The melody is simple, but the rhythm in the background creates an atmosphere that feels like you’re about to sortie at any moment.

The contrast between the heavy, battleship-march-like backing and the simple, light melody makes for an interesting piece.

Ready? Then… sortie!

At the Horizon of Dawn (Instrumental Ver.)Ōkoshi Kaori

[KanColle BGM] “On the Dawn Horizon” (Instrumental ver.)

This song has a Japanese rock style where traditional Japanese instruments and bass intertwine coolly.

In Kantai Collection, the ship girls shout, “Got it? Etch our victory on the dawn horizon!”—making “Dawn Horizon” one of the game’s iconic catchphrases.

The character song is performed by Saki Fujita and Iori Nomizu, who voice Akagi and Shokaku, respectively, while the instrumental version was used as background music for the 2014 event ‘Recon Aircraft, Launch!’

Fleet Operations Third Method: Final Sea Area Boss Battle ThemeŌkoshi Kaori

[Kancolle BGM] Order Issued! Fleet Operations Doctrine No. 3 – E-5 Boss Battle Theme

The BGM used for the boss battle in the 2016 event “Deploy! The Third Fleet Operations Doctrine.” It makes an overwhelming impression, with an alien intro built from heavy low-end programming and echo reminiscent of electrical interference—as if to match the grotesque Abyssal Princess among the enemy ships—an eerie, slightly off-pitch chorus, and lyrics steeped in malice.

The chorus is performed by Kaori Okoshi.

It’s a suspicious and tense track befitting a boss fight.
