[b]天龍[/b] (Named after the "Tenryuu River":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenry%C5%AB_River, lit. [i]"Heavenly Dragon"[/i])

Tenryuu was a light cruiser of the [[Imperial Japanese Navy]]. She was completed in 1919 and sunk in 1943. She is the namesake of the Tenryuu light cruiser class, which includes the [[Tatsuta (kancolle)|Tatsuta]].

The Tenryuu class are the third oldest out of the real ship classes currently represented in Kantai Collection, with [[gangut (kancolle)|Gangut]] and the Kongou-class battleships being the oldest and second oldest, respectively.

In [i][[Kantai Collection]][/i], Tenryuu has [[short hair|short]] [[purple hair]] and [[yellow eyes|her right eye is yellow]]. She wears a [[school uniform]] with a [[checkered necktie|checkered]] [[necktie]] and [[thighhighs]], [[black gloves|black]] [[partially fingerless gloves|gloves with the index and middle fingers exposed]] and an [[eyepatch]] over her left eye. She has ear-like or horn-like [[headgear]] hovering over the sides of her head. Her gear usually glows purple. Her weapon is a [[sword]]. For summer 2015, she was given a temporary alternate outfit consisting of a white [[bikini]], a [[kickboard]], and her necktie tied around the bikini bottom.

Depicted with a tough girl personality with the catchphrase of "Heh, you scared?"; she is, however, often depicted in a way that subverts this generally because her stats are very sub-par for her ship type and is generally used as expedition fleet fodder rather than part of a combat fleet. She is also depicted as a "babysitter":[/pools/9895] to the destroyers (most commonly to the Akatsuki-class).

Often paired with [[Kiso (kancolle)|]], due to their similar personalities and their eyepatches.

She got her [[tenryuu_kai_ni_(kancolle)|Kai Ni]] on the 12th of July 2018
