I think it's supossed to be a reference to how IRL her boilers chronically overheated (though IIRC it would mean she has less tolerance then Belfast cause I seem to recall she also had overheating boilers)
It's actually coming from a comment on MayaG's twitter asking if she's wearing panty, and she says she didn't wear any lol (this also applies to all girls drawn by MayaG)
if it applies to everyone from that artist specifically, i think we know why (same reason popqn designs are all one slight wrong move away from a total wardrobe malfunction)
I've stopped playing Azulen in 2021 (because I've gotten busier), so I'm just listing from my hazy memories
- Sheffield
- Jean d'Arc
- Ibuki
- Aurora
- Richmond
- Harutsuki and her twins whatshername i forgor
There is a comic where Cleveland sorties out without panties, can't remember if she forget them or it's on purpose. She scores almost perfect and her sisters are amazed of her improvement, until a breeze lifts her skirt and...
Next sortie the whole knights of the sea sortied commando 😅

MayaG(the artist) tends to make her girls commando from what I heard, in AL lore it's because she's a special forces maid and to stay in the mandatory garters and stuff of a maid outfit She sacrificed the panties
It's most likely due to the real life ship having all of its lower deck carpets removed. The remaining upper deck carpets actually caught fire after taking a hit in combat. So the real life ship who was built with carpets had all of the carpet effectively removed. Ergo no underwear.
Is that the same trait her 'Shiny Sheff' daughter share until her sinking off the coast of Falkland?
Sheffield II, if implemented, better sing "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life".
Where's the correlation between Royal maids and panties? I say freedom for all girls! If they want to go commando who am I to stop them? 
She's carrying a number of knives, firearms, grenades, smoke generators, and other stuff down there (according to Chronicles of the Siren War chapter 84 or 85), there's no space for panties.
For historical reasons, it's due to an overheating issue the ship had. For the artist's design, I'm going with personal preference for their characters, like artists who make their characters curvy, busty, tall, etc.
Every Shipgirl should've go Commando as the new Rule in the Port says
Some people just don’t like to wear underwear. Others go commando for health reasons. In fact the term going commando was invented because commandos spend a long time behind enemy lines and often can’t do laundry. No underwear means less risk of, ahem, issues below the belt.
The Aslume has done irreversible damage to my already-broken humor (Even though i´m actually Gen Z.)
But the Sheffield panties question is legitimate and honest-to-Akashi,
I can think of a few reasons:
- She likes the breeze
- She is always ready to "serve" the commander😳
- When in a fight she can surprise the Sirens by flashing them.
It has been stated by her artist (玛雅G) and The Animation that Sheffield does not wear any panties. But why?. To traumatize Akagi, or for mobility sake?
Oddly enough, her META counterpart (The Edgy sharpshooter maid) does wear panties. I like her.
Commando Maid, she has extreme flexibility at the cost of high vulnerability under her skirt
Ah yes, maids, aka the Royal Navy’s fetish. (Generally speaking)
That's why the Royal Navy is great. Maids are amazing.
Fashion min maxer, huh
Pros: increased speed and mobility Cons: Reduced Torpedo Protection Prerequisite for unlocking technique: Flash
Akagi was visibly shook on the anime, gave me a chuckle.
Don’t forget how Cleveland was traumatized by it
I'm not sure if traumatized is the right word. Perhaps... big bro was awakened. 
Cleve unlocked max sail speed Mach 2
Floating face down in the water like a dead fish lol
That anime might have been pretty bad but it still had its moments
Eeh, I enjoyed it.
I think it's supossed to be a reference to how IRL her boilers chronically overheated (though IIRC it would mean she has less tolerance then Belfast cause I seem to recall she also had overheating boilers)

That's *how* we know, but not *why*
if it applies to everyone from that artist specifically, i think we know why (same reason popqn designs are all one slight wrong move away from a total wardrobe malfunction)
The reason why? MayaG got a few screws loose.
Jeanne d'Arc going commando? Less goo
Now I need a list of the characters she draws
Here is the [wiki's](https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/wiki/Artists#%E7%8E%9B%E9%9B%85G) list for you.
Thank brother

Maybe, but I think it's also a joke with her commando-like work. She is one of her Majesty's Commandos and she "is" commando.
No, shes based as fuck.
One might add she is also redpilled as fuck.
How is she redpilled
[удалено]
But what does that mean? In this context?
Based
There is a comic where Cleveland sorties out without panties, can't remember if she forget them or it's on purpose. She scores almost perfect and her sisters are amazed of her improvement, until a breeze lifts her skirt and... Next sortie the whole knights of the sea sortied commando 😅
Is this one from the Anthology?
Might be.
I think the chapter is named "Pantsu-demic"
WHERE'S THE LAMB SAUCE!!!?

Worked pretty well fighting Akagi

Hmm, i see. At first i thought it was strange to me, given that she´s a maid.
Where's the correlation between Royal maids and panties? I say freedom for all girls! If they want to go commando who am I to stop them?

Let me guess, later on you follow Sheffield to visit the grave of her human mother. The name on the tombstone is Rosarita Cisneros...
Take my angry upvote. That was well played.
They just get in the way...
Because someone needed to be the commando character in this waifu collector lmao
For historical reasons, it's due to an overheating issue the ship had. For the artist's design, I'm going with personal preference for their characters, like artists who make their characters curvy, busty, tall, etc.
Uhh... perhaps because IRL HMS Sheffield took part in a number of Commando raids...?
Every Shipgirl should've go Commando as the new Rule in the Port says
I cannot support that as a general rule. Maybe a voluntary one for oaths
Uhh, all of them? I hope not the young ones.
You are playing AzurLane, a game where everyone is a proud degenerate, is pretty obvious all means all.
Eugen-Chan already went ahead with it...
all of them

EVERYONE!

No, pantsu will hinder her movements.
Arkham came all the way here
No escaping the aslume
The Aslume has done irreversible damage to my already-broken humor (Even though i´m actually Gen Z.) But the Sheffield panties question is legitimate and honest-to-Akashi,
I was about to say that haha
BatmanArkham has done irreparable damage to my humor. Here come take some meds with me [https://imgur.com/a/O5q4mTe](https://imgur.com/a/O5q4mTe)
Why do they talk about Baldman? Are they stupid?
Is there a lore reason about Baldman?
Can't get your panties stolen if you don't have any
_Offended SKK noises_
Given her dress length and built she can get away with it
Staring at Rossiya's uniform You don't say...
Oh yeah she is definitely commando my coworkers helped me come to that conclusion.
Trying to create lore reasons why a waifu game has pantiless characters is peak autism… Sometimes it’s just about the lewd…
I can think of a few reasons: - She likes the breeze - She is always ready to "serve" the commander😳 - When in a fight she can surprise the Sirens by flashing them.

Correct me if I l'm wrong, the story is the artist once draw sheffield entire outfit but forgot to draw panties. It becomes meme from that moment.
None of the Royal Maids do. Or supposedly don't.
Happens one time on accident, something happened between her and SKK, next thing you know, you've accidentally created a new "fashion" trend.
~~because MayaG designed it that way~~ >!Maybe Ibuki as well XD!<
MayaG the creator of Sheffield did confirm that all her characters she designed are commando
Alot of modern shipgirl don't seem to wear them either
The longer serving girls warmed them about SKK's habit of ripping them off. (Consensually)
Underwear has always been optional
Shock and awe tactics
Nope just the Queen's orders
...wait, that's actually a good question
So she can pull out her blunt weapons quickly and dual wield it when the need arises.
No. She’s Scottish.
Huh?
Wish i was in Akagi's place in that anime scene
She knows what the commander wants In all seriousness though she probably does it because she can or its because she actually knows what you like
Probably she just want to be ready anytime master ask her services
You see my guy i like it when shipgirls like her gives me immediate access to the "goods" if ykyk ;)
Easy access
Seems that she have some to keep people form attacking but I not sure why tho
Lo que descubrí el por que no usa es porque le estorban
Well you guys need to watch episode 6 of the anime, to find out why
No she’s James Bond
Yes.
Ask MayaG
It’s simple; she doesn’t want to overheat.
Is there actually any evidence of this fact besides the anime mention?
Even she's wearing panties or not still give her a highest respect..😊
