Minazuki has a cheerful, yet somewhat soft-spoken, and highly feminine personality. Her official lines have her as acting somewhat dependent upon her older sister Satsuki, or "Sacchin", and that she's also close to "Fumi-chan", both of which, along with Nagatsuki, were part of DesDiv 22 with the historical Minazuki.
The real-life Minazuki spent the early war as an escort to transports, and the later war as a transport in numerous "Tokyo Express" runs. Outside of once being damaged by an air raid and rescuing crew from a sinking transport, the Minazuki never saw direct combat. The Minazuki was ultimately sunk by the USS Harder on June 2, 1944, during a Tokyo Express mission.
