She has [[pink eyes]] and [[short hair|short]] [[pink hair]] in [[twintails]] held with [[hair bobbles]]. On her right kidney is a round [[badge]] with a strawberry-like pattern. When heavily damaged, she is revealed to be wearing [[strawberry print]] [[strawberry panties|panties]]. She has a tiny pink [[rabbit]] companion.

The 7th Destroyer Division (Sazanami, [[Akebono (kancolle)|]], [[Ushio (kancolle)|]] and [[Oboro (kancolle)|]]) all wear a variant of the Fubuki-class standard [[serafuku]] as well as dark green versions of the Fubuki-class ship parts and rigging.

She talks in random pop-culture references, memes and internet slang and refers to the [[Admiral (kancolle)|]] as "master" as if she was a [[maid]] in a [[maid cafe]] (her new remodel CG emphasizes this point).
