Character design by [[bob_(biyonbiyon)|Bob]], voiced by [[Iguchi Yuka]]. 

h4. Personality and appearance
As a character, she is notable for her old-fashioned militaristic speech patterns (notably her use of [i]wagahai[/i] as first-person, also a reference to [[Soseki Natsume]] "the author":[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natsume_S%C5%8Dseki]), and has a somewhat aggressive personality.  She has [[long hair|long]], [[brown hair]] in [[twintails]] with two white [[hair ribbon]] accessories.  At least in official art, at least one strand of hair [[hair between eyes|comes down between her eyes]].

Her sister ship, [[Chikuma (kancolle)|Chikuma]] is a notable siscon.

Before upgrade, she wears a [[single elbow glove]] on her left arm that has a seaplane runway on it, a long green [[jacket]] belted at the waist (with some ambiguity as to whether it's acting as a [[short dress]], or she's just wearing [[no pants]]), and [[uneven legwear]] in the form of a [[single thighhigh|thigh-high sock]] on her left (runway) side.  

With [[machinery|battle kit]] on, all her [[turret]]s are on her right side.

[[Tone Kai Ni (Kancolle)|After upgrade]], she has a much more visually distinct appearance, wearing a shorter green jacket, a long black skirt with such extreme [[side slit|side slits]] as to make it a [[pelvic curtain]], and [[no panties|no visible underwear]] (As far as the anime is concerned, she wears some form of extremely [[highleg panties]], the straps being high enough to hide under her jacket). Many posts make light of the fact that she apparently wears nothing underneath a single loose piece of clothing...
