h4. Personality
An excitable girl, she wants to become a battleship due to her admiration of the battleship [[musashi (kancolle)|Musashi]]. So, it is not uncommon to draw her with Musashi's (or another battleship's) rigging, if only to collapse under the weight.

h4. History
In real life, [i]Kiyoshimo[/i] was constructed late in the war, mid-1944, and the only notable battle she participated in was the "Battle of Leyte Gulf":[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Leyte_Gulf]. [i]Kiyoshimo[/i] rescued the survivors of [i]Musashi[/i] and then retreated after taking damage, and did not participate further.  After repairs, [i]Kiyoshimo[/i] was sunk returning to the Philippines by Allied air attack on December 26th, 1944, and most of her survivors were rescued by [i]Asashimo[/i].
