→Trivia: Kaga's body heat

*In the 4koma, she is often portrayed as irrationally protective of Akagi from the destroyers that historically scuttled her (who were also their escorts). Historically, all four CarDiv1 and CarDiv2 carriers ([[Akagi]], [[Hiryuu]], [[Souryuu]] and herself) were scuttled in the Battle of Midway by Japanese destroyers' torpedoes after being heavily damaged by air attacks. During WW2, scuttling (intentional allied sinking to prevent capture) was very common, and the IJN rarely took prisoners or allowed themselves to be POWs.

* Also in the 4koma, she gives off excessive levels of body heat, which she is very sensitive about. This is a reflection of the historic Kaga having a very poorly designed exhaust system which blew hot air back onto the rear of the ship, cooking the flight deck and causing the rear crew quarters to be near uninhabitable.
