Probably in part inspired by her final captain, Sakawa Masazou, an outspoken humanitarian as revealed by post-war interviews.) | |

Character
Voiced by: Kobayashi Motoko
Illustrated by: やどかり(Yadokari)
Appearance
Brick red eyes and long black hair held together with a red hair tie towards the end, though nevertheless a little messy all around. Dresses in a black suit jacket with a matching skirt over a white button-down shirt and red tie; wears black socks and brown penny loafers. She holds two small main cannons in both hands resembling dual 12.7cm naval guns, though the left one only has a single turret (which was the standard for Hatsuharu-class destroyers until post-1942 when they were replaced with additional anti-air guns), with 61cm triple torpedo mounts attached to either side of her torso. Her mainmast and funnel, mounted on her back, are apparent as well. Her design from the point of view of her armaments appears to reflect the real ship at the outset of the war rather than the later years.
Hatsushimo Kai Ni gains a blue hachimaki along with a new (piped) blazer. In this outfit she's forgone her tie, rolled up her sleeves and appears to have followed in the example of Yahagi and Yamato (two of her Operation Ten-Gō comrades), wearing one thigh-high sock on the left leg and her usual on the right. Unlike her real-life counterpart, she's kept her single-turret 12.7cm gun, but a 25mm gun (to represent many, many mounted on the ship herself) has been installed along with a Type 13 RADAR affixed to the mainmast. Expectedly enough, her second design on whole appears to reflect the Hatsushimo as she served in Operation Ten-Gō.
Personality
Much of her personality may be based on her final and most significant captain, Sakawa Masazou (酒勾雅三), a devoted humanitarian. Many of Hatsushimo's traits seem to match up with his own, particularly her outspoken desire to protect the player and her fellow Kanmusu. Her dialogue is spoken in a polite, feminine but enthusiastic tone. She is protective, careful and kind to a fault. At the same time, though, Hatsushimo is brave and strong-willed, a reference to the ship's decorate service history and her crew's accomplishments during the late war.
Trivia
- Was the last IJN destroyer to be lost in the Pacific War, outlasted in Kancolle only by the surviving Yukikaze, Hibiki, and Ushio.
- Hatsushimo took part in Operation Ten-Gō, Yamato's final mission, and took even less damage during it than Yukikaze, emerging unscathed with two sailors injured. By contrast she rescued nearly 2,400 people according to a later interview with her captain at the time.
- Mined and critically damaged in action, July 30, 1945 at Miyazu Bay, Kyoto (35°33′N 135°12′E). Towed to Maizuru and scrapped.
Mine was estimated to be counted up by Yukikaze
- Her name means "first frost of the year", often associated with the month November.
- An anchor was retrieved from her wreckage and is currently displayed outside of the Yamada Memorial Hospital (Google Maps Street View) in Sumida City, Tokyo. Interestingly, Yukikaze met a similar fate (memorialised via anchor, along with her rudder) after failed attempts to bring her full self back to Japan to be preserved as a museum ship.
- Japanese fans have pointed out that Hatsushimo's hair tie is similar to the one worn by Yahagi. Given that other destroyers have often been given clothing similar to that of the larger ships whose survivors they rescued, it's entirely possible that this was intended from the start.
- The same has also been said of Hatsushimo Kai Ni's hachimaki, resembling Yahagi's tie in colouration.
