浦波 (lit. [i]"Breaking wave"[/i])

Uranami is the personification of the tenth and last of the [[fubuki (kancolle)|Fubuki]]-class destroyers as well as the tenth of the twenty-four Special Type destroyers in [[Kantai Collection]].
Character design by [[Shibafu (glock23)|]], voiced by [[Uesaka Sumire]].

h4. Personality
Uranami has a similar "forthright energetic" personality to Fubuki, although with a somewhat more tomboyish edge. She also has a strong respect for/dependency upon her sister-ship, "[[isonami (kancolle)|Isonami-nee-san]]", referring to her or asking for help from her whenever she is in trouble. She similarly has a strong attachment to her other historic division-mates, [[ayanami (kancolle)|Ayanami]] and [[shikinami (kancolle)|Shikinami]].

h4. Appearance
Similar to her sister-shipgirls, she has dark [[brown hair]] and [[brown eyes]]. Her [[long hair]] is tied into a [[single braid]] that is swept to the front of her right shoulder.

Although she is listed as a Special Type I (Fubuki-class) destroyer, she is actually of an intermediary design between the Types I and II, with the funnels of the later type but with the guns of the earlier type. As such, she wears a variant of the "basic" uniform: a blue-and-white short-sleeved [[serafuku]] but with a brown collar (blue sailor collar) and a brown [[neckerchief]] characteristic of Shibafu's Ayanami-class. She completes the set with a blue [[pleated skirt]], [[black_socks|black]] [[kneehighs]], and a [[red ribbon]] on her braid.

Her [[machinery|rigging]] consists of a [[smokestack]] carried like a backpack, a [[torpedo]] launcher strapped to either thigh, and a twin-[[cannon]] [[turret]] held in her right hand. Her official art also has her swinging an [[anchor]] in her left hand.

She gained a kai ni/second remodel on April 01, 2022. See [[Uranami Kai Ni (Kancolle)|the page]] for more details.
