Character

Voiced by: Yuka Iguchi

Illustrated by: Ayaki (彩樹)

Appearance

Tenryuu has short purple hair and yellow eyes. She wears a school uniform with a necktie and thighhighs and an eyepatch over her left eye. Her weapon is a sword.

Personality

She is depicted with a "tough girl" personality, with the catchphrase of "Heh, you scared?". She is, however, often depicted in a way that subverts this, especially when teased by Tatsuta. She is also depicted as a babysitter to the Akatsuki class.

Her mannerisms paired with her eyepatch often leads to her depicted as a chuunibyou character, with humorous results.

In-Game Tips

Early in the game, Tenryuu can make for a good ship to use in standard combat situations and certain quests, but once you are able to obtain other more decent light cruisers that can use seaplanes (such as Nagara-class, Sendai-Class, and Agano-class), she will gradually become obsolete in most combat situations outside of possibly Anti-Submarine Combat. Thankfully, Tenryuu has the lowest resupply costs of all light cruisers, which makes her perfect for for expeditions and some combat scenarios.

In addition, it is possible for her to be able to also provide preemptive anti-sub attacks, but will require her to be near her maximum level and be armed with 2 Type 4 SONARs and a Type 3 Depth Charge to allow her to maximize her potential.

Trivia

• Her name means "Heavenly Dragon"
• see Tenryuu Kindergarten
• Sunk by USS Albacore (SS-218) 18 of December of 1942, off Madang,New Guinea
• She is required for quests A8 and A51, as well as the Mikawa Fleet and New Mikawa Fleet quests (A20, A24, B11, B16, and as an option for A50 and B41).
