  1. Special Type destroyer refers to the Fubuki, Ayanami, and Akatsuki-classes which were designated as such because they represented such a leap in performance over previous destroyer classes.
  2. She was ordered to split off from her squadron to scout the other side of Savo Island during the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal. Although she says it was a solo action, the engagement she participated in also involved Nagara and Uranami.
  3. Shared with Supply before kai.
  4. Equipment(3) is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  5. Shared with Secretary Married before kai.

Trivia

General Information
Update History
  • She was part of the original game's launch when the game was released on the 23rd of April 2013.
  • She got her Kai Ni on the 20th of June 2014.
Misc
  • While in KanColle she is the lead ship of the Ayanami Class, in other contexts she is referred to as the 11th ship of the Fubuki class.  She was the first of the greater Fubuki class (containing the Fubuki, Ayanami, and Akatsuki classes) with a modified gun turret allowing her guns to angle up to 75 degrees.  When introduced, her class was among the most powerful destroyers in the world along with Fubuki and Akatsuki-class.
  • Wreck discovered in 1992 by Dr. Robert Ballard
  • Ayanami is one of the three IJN ships in Iron Bottom Sound, along with Kirishima and Yuudachi.
  • Her second remodel represents her performance during her final mission, a night battle where she formed a single 'prong' of a three-pronged attack alone (other prongs each contained a light cruiser and multiple destroyers), sank (or helped sink) three destroyers, heavily damaged a fourth, and assisted Kirishima in trading fire with a battleship, the USS South Dakota.
  • The Evangelion character Rei Ayanami takes her family name from this ship. In fact, almost all Evangelion characters have names connected to ships (IJN ships in particular); Maya Ibuki (in this case a double reference because Ibuki is also the name of an IJN cruiser), Shigeru Aoba, and Ritsuko Akagi to name a few.
