Analysis

Priority:

Kai/Kai Ni: Low

She is just an average light cruiser at Kai but is incapable of carrying seaplanes. This means she is unable to perform artillery spotting which hampers her combat effectiveness. This does not change upon Kai Ni. Although she gains an AACI, it has a low fixed shootdown and weak multiplier. Her best AACI also requires taking a subpar loadout that interferes with the optimum night battle loadout. She is one of the cheapest light cruisers to run which makes her suited to maximising expedition gains. Beyond that, she doesn't have much use beyond quests.
