akigumo (kancolle)
秋雲 秋雲(艦隊これくしょん) 秋雲(艦これ) 秋雲先生 オータムクラウド先生
Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese destroyer Akigumo. Character design by Fujikawa, voiced by Taketatsu Ayana.
She has long brown hair tied to a long ponytail, green eyes, and a mole under her right eye. Due to historical confusion on what class she was in, she wears the standard Yuugumo-class uniform: a purple halterneck pleated dress over a white shirt with long sleeves, blue bowtie, and grey pantyhose with a pair of lace-up boots.
Her rigging is a hybrid of the styles seen in the Kagerou- and Yuugumo-class: her bridge and foremast to her back with a 25 mm anti-aircraft gun, a 12.7 cm twin handgun mount, and two 61 cm quad torpedo tubes on thigh straps.
Due to her lines (and the fact that her crew illustrated the sinking Hornet in the battle of the Santa Cruz Islands), she is often portrayed as a manga artist and is sometimes shown being involved in doujinshi.

The confusion regarding Akigumo's actual class (a Kagerou wearing a Yuugumo school uniform) stems from the blurred lines on design between ships of the two classes. This is further misled by her name, which makes more sense among the "clouds" in the early Yuugumo-class ships, and it being written on "the wrong side of the ledger" ahead of Yuugumo. Further fanning the confusion, Akigumo was "orphaned" to even up numbers among Kagerous and assigned to Destroyer Division 10, made up of Yuugumos. Even the surviving crew of the historical destroyer thought they were manning a Yuugumo-class ship. Akigumo's actual identity as a Kagerou was revealed in 1994, when researchers found IJN documents stating the ship was "Kagero-class, Akigumo." Akigumo was also supposed to be the nameship of the class of improved destroyers following the Kagerou class, but was instead built with Kagerou blueprints; the improved destroyers then bore Yuugumo's name.
