The issue is you go above and beyond simple plot armor. Also, the japanese fight fair, they do not usually fight dirty. As for the Chat's fleet size, it is large but not over powered. Besides, after the battle of eafth, they lost a good size of their fleet. Not enough to make them weaker, but enough that in the long run it might hurt them.
