Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese destroyer Hatsuzuki. Character design by Shizuma Yoshinori, voiced by Nakajima Megumi.
She has short brown hair with strands tied to look like horns along with grayish yellow eyes.
She wears the same Akizuki-class uniform (black sailor collar on a white shirt, black pleated skirt, grey corset, rudder footwear) except with slight different tones of grey and a black neckerchief. Under her uniform appears to be a black full-body bodysuit fully covering her arms and legs. She doesn't wear the gloves as her bodysuit also covers her hands. Her fire director is attached to her right wrist. Her rigging consists of quad 610 mm torpedo tubes to her back, plus two hull pieces with her own pair of Chou-10cm-hou-chan.
Hatsuzuki is a "bokukko", and refers to herself with the "typically young boy" pronoun of "boku". She has a stoic, serious, and taciturn personality, similar in some respects to Kaga, however she has a far more selfless and humble personality. This is likely due to all her service escorting, and her final mission in Leyte Gulf ending in a "last stand" sacrifice so the survivors of Zuikaku could escape.
