Base
i-201 (kancolle)
Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese submarine I-201. Character design by Hoshiakari (C2 Kikan).
Appearance
In-game, she is portrayed with virtually the same uniform as her sister I-203: a blue crop top and white sailor collar, gradient neckerchief, blue skirt, black thighhighs with her name printed on them, and rudder footwear. Her physical form is defined by her long grey hair and grey eyes.
Her rigging is also the same as her sister's, using two separate hull pieces with built-in torpedo tubes. Unlike I-203, however, she does not use 25 mm AA handguns, but is instead shown holding a torpedo.
History
Like her sister, the real-life I-201 did not see action due to being commissioned late in the war. She was surrendered to the US Navy who ferried her to Pearl Harbor for analysis before being scuttled on 23 May 1946 alongside her sister and two others to prevent the Soviets from acquiring these unique submarines (I-201 and I-203 due to their high underwater speed, I-400 and I-401 due to their aircraft-carrying design).
