daitou (kancolle)
The personification of the second of the Hiburi-class coastal defense ships in Kantai Collection.
The Hiburi-class wear a white short-sleeved sailor dress with blue collar and accents, along with a sailor hat, short, white socks, and uwabaki. Their rigging is carried via a shoulder strap, and depth charges are strapped to their thighs.
Daitou herself has short bob-like black hair with a high ponytail at the back that is not obvious from the front and sidelocks, and greenish blue eyes.
Unlike her sister Hiburi, Daitou is very energetic and eager to battle, somewhat like her near-look-alike Miyuki but a bit rowdier. She messes around a lot and has to have her sister look after her.
Her historic namesake was launched in June 1944 and was quickly worked up and soon set to work escorting convoys. She survived several sub and air attacks to be still intact when Japan surrendered. She worked post-war as a minesweeper and struck a mine in the Tsushima Straits in November 1945, breaking in two.
