Introduction Play	翔鶴型航空母艦2番艦、妹の瑞鶴です。 幸運の空母ですって？そうじゃないの、一生懸命やってるだけ…よ。 艦載機がある限り、負けないわ！	2nd of the Shoukaku-class aircraft carriers, the younger sister Zuikaku. The lucky carrier, you say? That's not it, I just fight with all my might.. As long as I have planes, I won't lose!	(Zuikaku ran out of planes, in the end)
Library Intro Play	翔鶴型航空母艦２番艦、瑞鶴です。 翔鶴姉と共に、ミッドウェーの後の第一機動部隊の中核として、矢尽き刀折れるまで奮戦しました。 文字通り、最後の機動部隊が壊滅する、その日まで…。	2nd of the Shoukaku-class aircraft carriers, Zuikaku. After Midway, I formed the core of the 1st CarDiv with Shoukaku, where I fought until I had nothing left. Quite literally, until the day that the Kidou-butai was destroyed...	(Zuikaku and Shoukaku did not participate in Midway, and were upgraded to 1st CarDiv due to the loss of Akagi, Kaga, Soryuu, and Hiryuu; she was the last carrier of the Kido-butai to be sunk, and thus the IJN's aviation power, was lost) ('矢尽き刀折れるまで' lit 'Until the arrows are expended and the sword broken' is to fight until you have no more resources left)

Character

Voiced by: Iori Nomizu

Illustrated by: Konishi (コニシ)

Appearance

Zuikaku wears a shortened miko uniform with arm bracers and thigh boots with propellers protruding from them. Like most archer carriers, she wields a bow and wears muneate but hers has a kana inscribed on it ("ス").

Zuikaku has long grey (or green or black) hair in twintails. Her flight deck is attached to her left arm.

Upgrade

Unlike Shoukaku, her clothes changes color after remodeling. Her skirt becomes brown; her top is now a bluish grey; her muneate, flight deck, arm bracers and quiver on her back gain a geometric camouflage pattern.

Personality

Brash, proud and overly confident at times.

Sometimes referred to as a "Turkey" by western fans, due to one of her battle lines.

Trivia

• High luck value since she never took a single hit till her last battle at Leyte Gulf, while her sister Shoukaku always took heavy blows.
• This can also be attributed to her name, which uses the kanji for luck and crane.
• The camo pattern of her upgraded model clothes refer to the actual flight deck camouflage pattern used during Leyte Gulf battle, the same pattern was used on Zuihou, Chitose and Chiyoda.
• Sunk by air attack in the Battle of Leyte Gulf on 25 October 1944.
• She is required for quest A23.
