And I shall argue the point! (Though arguing something as variable as taste in gun turrets is kinda hopeless, neither of us is going to back down from our respective positions anyway)

The Japanese gun turrets are too cluttered. They simply have too much clutter sticking out in every which way, range finders bolted on top like an afterthought, weird curvature to the turret face, and all these other bumps or indents and whatnot. It just doesn't work for me. I prefer the smooth simplicity of British and American designs. The 36cm triple, so gloriously sleek and smooth! The 40cm triple, sleek and low slung. The 36cm triple is my favorite gun turret design, it's sleek shape is almost aerodynamic.
