Ship Name: Umikaze Library No: 258 → 387 (Kai Ni) Class: 7th ship of the Shiratsuyu-class Type: Destroyer CV: Shizuka Ishigami Artist: Kujo Ichiso Appearance: Her hair and clothing contain no pure white; instead, gray is used in its place. Since Yamakaze and Kawakaze have white collars and sleeves, this color scheme is one of Umikaze's subtle unique points. Her silver hair is styled into a single braid long enough to reach her ankles, fastened at the end with a small green bead. The hair color is a gradient, starting as a slightly pinkish silver at the crown and braid top, transitioning to a dark sky-blue towards the tip. She has a long lock of hair on her left sideburn. The front of her hair features many asymmetrical designs. Like her sisters Shiratsuyu and Harusame, she has two tufts of hair on the sides of her head that flare outward. Her eyes are blue-green and drooping, similar to Kawakaze and Yamakaze. She has a beauty mark under her left eye, though it can be hard to see against the blush on her cheeks. Changes after Kai Ni Remodel: - Her bangs are parted slightly more to the right, and the bangs themselves are long enough to cover her left eye. - The side hair has grown long on both sides (previously only the left was long). - Pigtails have been added to the top of her head. - Her right arm is wrapped in bandages. - More of her torso is exposed, featuring a front-opening style that shows a glimpse of her navel, similar to her younger sister's second remodel. Personality: Caring, modest, and attentive. She has a habit of saying "Ah..." quite often. While not one to assert herself strongly, she takes pride in being the "first ship of the Kai Shiratsuyu-class" and often introduces herself as such. She sometimes calls it the "Umikaze-class," but immediately corrects herself to "Kai Shiratsuyu-class" out of consideration for the name-ship, Shiratsuyu. Regardless, she is insistent on the fact that she is "different from the early production models," a trait she shares with Shiratsuyu, who is also obsessed with being the "first ship." Among shipgirls who are technically classified the same as their pre-improvement counterparts, she is the first to be consciously aware of herself as an improved model. She is proud of her younger sisters. She is particularly attentive to Kawakaze, who was implemented on the same day, often asking for Kawakaze to receive the same upgrades during modernization or checking in on her whenever she has free time, showing a slightly overprotective side. She also brings treats to Yamakaze, and even the difficult Yamakaze says she likes Umikaze because she is kind.
