yamashiro (kancolle)

山城 (Mountain Castle) Named for the ancient Yamashiro Province, today the southern part of Kyoto Prefecture.

Yamashiro is a Fusou-class battleship in Kantai Collection.

The Fusou-class ship girls wears a miko-like outfit with wide detached sleeves, a hair ornament resembling the class' massive pagoda mast which is held with a small braid (only drawn clearly with the second remodels) as well as massive ordnance on their back. Both girls also have black hair and red eyes.

The few features that distinguishes her from her sister ship, Fusou, is her short hair and the hair ornament is on the right side of her head. Other select features are also featured to her right side.

For her second remodel, Yamashiro gains the changes added to Fusou's own remodel (floral pattern, headband, modified hair ornament and triple guns) as well as somewhat longer hair, tied low. The main difference to Fusou's remodel is that the floral pattern is to the right side instead of the left side for Fusou.

In 2017 the Yamashiro was discovered and photographed by the RV Petrel, Paul Allen's primary research and discovery ship, and her crew. Mr. Allen is the same man who led the team that found the wrecksite of Musashi. Three days later, the likely wreck of the Asagumo would also be found.

For the same reasons as Fusou, she has been given the "小江戸美人戦艦" ("Beauty of Little Edo" Battleship) tag on pixiv.
