Base and kai
kiyoshimo (kancolle)
Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese destroyer Kiyoshimo. Character designed by Fujikawa, voiced by Kanemoto Hisako.
She is portrayed with very long multicolored hair (grey outer, blue inner) with a single hair bun turning into low twintails, an ahoge, a strand of hair passing between her eyes; and grey eyes.
She wears the standard Yuugumo-class school uniform: a purple/maroon halterneck dress over a white shirt, a teal-blue bowtie, grey/purple opaque pantyhose and lace-up boots. She wears her rigging on her back with yellow straps. Quadruple torpedo launchers are strapped to her thighs and she wields a standard 12.7cm gun with her right hand.
For her kai ni, see the corresponding page.
Costumes
Personality
An excitable girl, she wants to become a battleship due to her admiration of the battleship Musashi. So, it is not uncommon to draw her with Musashi's (or another battleship's) rigging, if only to collapse under the weight.
History
In real life, Kiyoshimo was constructed late in the war, mid-1944, and the only notable battle she participated in was the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Kiyoshimo rescued the survivors of Musashi and then retreated after taking damage, and did not participate further. After repairs, Kiyoshimo was sunk returning to the Philippines by Allied air attack on December 26th, 1944, and most of her survivors were rescued by Asashimo.
