Cloudy, With A Chance Of Shipgirls
This is a cute little slice-of-life-y story set in the now-ish world where the Abyssals started mucking about in 2017, COVID-19 showed up on schedule, and the world is generally humming right along as best it can.
Our Protagonist, Gordon Hawkins, is a work-from-home IT guy (SQL wonk, mostly) who lives in an apartment building that the Navy has just taken over to turn into a shipgirl dorm. Unfortunately they failed to notice that he isn't a renter, he actually owns his unit... and they didn't even notice that he hadn't moved out with the other residents when they assigned the Japanese destroyer Ariake to (what they thought was 'formerly') his apartment.
So Gordon comes home from the grocery store one day to find this destroyer-girl standing in his living room wondering who this guy who's just barged into her apartment is...
And things move on in pleasantly slice-of-life-y manner from there, as our heroes suffer the incompetence of bureaucracy, get to know each other, and generally carry on as best they can under the circumstances.
