About Zuikaku: One of the shipgirls modeled after the Shokaku-class aircraft carrier "Zuikaku" appearing in the browser game "Kantai Collection." Ship Name: Zuikaku Library No: 107 Class: 2nd Ship of the Shokaku-class Type: Standard Aircraft Carrier CV: Iori Nomizu Artist: Konishi Age: 18 Gender: Female Personality: In contrast to her quiet sister Shokaku, she has a mischievous and pushy personality. The fact that she doesn't properly read the hourly notifications when set as the secretary ship suggests a bit of a lazy streak. She tends to act before she speaks; clicking on her as a secretary ship will prompt warnings like "Do you want to be bombed?!" or she might actually order an attack: "All planes, load bombs! Launch as soon as ready! Target: the Admiral in the home port office! Go get 'em!!" While her reaction is understandable given the Admiral's sexual harassment, Zuikaku herself has a mischievous side, such as potentially pulling on her sister's skirt (according to Shokaku's lines). Although she is fundamentally a tomboy, she has cute moments like acting spoiled during hourly lines or saying "I'm gonna pout~" in a sweet, coaxing voice if left alone. Because of this, she is suspected by some of being a tsundere. Appearance: Like her sister, she wears archery gear in colors reminiscent of miko robes. She carries a red quiver on her back equipped with a bridge and funnel, wears a black chest guard, and sports boots fitted with main engines and anti-aircraft guns, with a flight deck attached to her shoulder. While the actual historical Shokaku-class carriers were said to be difficult to distinguish aside from their deck markings, Zuikaku shares almost no commonalities with Shokaku in terms of equipment or clothing. Unlike her sister Shokaku, who has long, silky silver hair, Zuikaku has black hair tied in twintails. Her hair color is sometimes depicted with a greenish tint. Trivia: Her historical achievements, including shared kills, involve sinking three carriers and damaging two, earning her the reputation of being the Imperial Japanese Navy's most decorated ship. She fought for approximately three years, from the attack on Pearl Harbor to the Battle of Leyte Gulf. In her final battle, she faced the most intense concentrated attacks as if the enemy were seeking revenge for Pearl Harbor.
