A [[Kantai Collection]] meme character. A fanmade variation of [[Inazuma (kancolle)|]] that became meme enough to become a trend among Pixiv artists. She in originated in post #1917287 by [[Sukima (crie)|]].

She appears generally identical to Inazuma, but often a [[chibi]] figure (or deformed in a muscle-bound manner), and classically has a [[diamond mouth]] face with eyes that are [[solid_circle_eyes|large solid black circles]], upturned eyebrows, [[shaded_face|shading on her face]], and the oddly-shaped mouth twisted into a trolling smirk (see post #1680938). Frequently, she can be made to appear thuggish instead of smirking.  Plasma-chan is also a highly violent "dark-side" version of Inazuma, usually threatening people (or eggplants) with weapons or martial arts (see post #1726517). Alternately, simply behaving in a manner deliberately the opposite of the "pure and innocent" normal Inazuma (see post #1703511).

Plasma-chan was, in the Twitter images that originated her meme, violently opposed to an artist named [[Nasu (tenpurakkusu)|]] (Japanese for "[[eggplant]]") and featured the [[solid circle eyes]] and [[diamond mouth]] face as her salient traits in the series.  Some references to Plasma-chan just have her head and a "nasu" speech bubble. 

Inazuma's name means "lightning" in Japanese, so she becomes "plasma" as her dark side. 

Inazuma's catchphrase "[[nanodesu_(phrase)|]]" (なのです) may be [i]just slightly[/i] altered into "な゛の゛て゛す! (nano-DEATH!)" instead (alternately, "なの-DEATH!").
