She is friendly toward the Admiral, treating them with a natural, casual attitude rather than being formal. She often speaks with jokes and light banter, serving as a presence that puts those around her at ease. On the other hand, she cherishes her comrades and sister ships, and is particularly close to Ooi. Although she usually gives off a laid-back vibe, she shows a dependable side in battle, supporting the fleet as a light cruiser. Appearance: A girl with long black hair and blue eyes. Her hair is tied back, giving her a generally calm impression. She wears a Japanese-style outfit reminiscent of a sailor uniform and is equipped with light cruiser riggings.

Built as one of the Kuma-class sisters, she handles reconnaissance, escort, shelling, and torpedo attacks for the fleet. While she is a ship girl who is later remodeled into a torpedo cruiser, this profile focuses on Kitakami during her time as a light cruiser.
