*Though a "glasses character", many fanart choose to depict her as a bespectacled brawler, tagged under [http://dic.pixiv.net/a/%E3%83%9E%E3%82%A4%E3%82%AF%E3%83%81%E3%82%A7%E3%83%83%E3%82%AF%E3%81%AE%E6%99%82%E9%96%93%E3%81%A0%E3%82%AA%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A1%21 "マイクチェックの時間だオラァ!] " ("It's mic-check time, dammit!") in pixiv. This is a nod towards her performance in the aforementioned Battle of Guadalcanal, where she gave the newly built USS South Dakota a hard knock, taking out the much younger battleship's fire control systems and communications. Not too shabby, especially if one considers her age by then (she was launched in 1913 as a battlecruiser and was rebuilt in 1927 and 1934 as a battleship). Her exceptional firepower (for a non-Yamato ship) after her second remodel may also be a nod to this brutal side of her.

* Though in KanColle she is listed as the fourth ship of the Kongou class, it might be more accurate to say that Kirishima and Haruna are twins. Kirishima was laid down only a day after Haruna was, and they were commissioned on the same day, April 19, 1915.
