Event	Japanese	English	Note
Introduction Play	来た来たぁ！鬼怒、到着しましたよ！	Yeah yeah yeah! Finally, Kinu has arrived!
Library Intro Play	神戸生まれの鬼怒だよ。舞鶴の学校で訓練に励んだんだ。色々と大変になってきた後は、南西方面で頑張ったよ…いやぁ、大変だったなあ。球磨ちゃんには随分と助けてもらったんだ。でも…パナイ島だけはマジパナイ！	Born in Kobe, I'm Kinu! I trained well at the Maizuru School. After lots of dangerous things happened, I did my best in the Southwest.... Well, that was bad too. Kuma-chan was suprisingly helpful too. But... Panay Island was seriously panai!	Kinu was use as a training ship from '34-'35; she was used to escort the Southwestern Area Fleet's transport mission. Kuma was docked with Kinu when she came under attack by bombers. She was sunk near Panay Island. The last bit is a pun - "Panay" sounds a bit like "panee", slightly dated slang for "awesome".

Trivia

• Sunk 26 October 1944 bombed by USN aircraft SW of Masbate, Sibuyan Sea 11°45′N 123°11′E
• Though the origin of her name is a proper noun of river, 鬼怒 literally means "angry goblin", and this accounts for her unique pose and character.
• As of the the November 4th update, Kinu has earned her second remodel, which allows her to equip Daihatsu, has a unique AACI set up and comes with an automatic 5% resource gain from expeditions.
