Base
nenohi (kancolle)
Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese destroyer Nenohi. Character design by Ayaki.
She is portrayed with long pink hair in a single braid, and purple eyes. Her default outfit, shared with Hatsuharu on historical grounds, consists of a white sailor dress with a black sailor collar, red neckerchief, black bodysuit, bike shorts, bandages as improvised socks, and black rudder footwear.
Her rigging consists of her real-life bridge to her back, 61 cm triple torpedo tubes on joints attached to the bridge, 12.7 single and twin handgun mounts, and floating headgear.
A very energetic girl, she tends to use her name in a joke. In fact, it's her single gag, characteristic catchphrase and verbal tic in one ("What day is today? Nenohi/New Year's Day!").

History
The second of the Hatsuharu-class built, Nenohi was actually the first launched. Commissioned on the same day as her sister on 30 September 1933, their trials and initial operations revealed severe stability and maneuverability problems arising from IJN specifications to have them carry identical armament to the larger Fubuki-class on a lighter displacement. These problems forced the pair into a refit that saw their tall bridges, funnels, and masts lowered while one of their three triple torpedo mounts was removed.
At the start of the war, she was assigned with her sisters as Destroyer Division 21 and saw action in the Dutch East Indies and Aleutian campaigns, the latter was where she was sunk by a US submarine on 4 July 1942, with Inazuma rescuing her survivors.
