Would love to see it in action before getting sunk. It's the most heaviest and most powerfully armed battleships ever constructed in the world. The amount of AA from that ship would'v been hella intense to see.

Just find this Japanese movie from 2005, which is a decent watch.

The ship and it's sister ship the Musashi were considered a symbol of Japanese pride and a morale booster. Like a lot of battleships it was kept out of action as much as possible. Kind of ironic I know.
