Kongou Touch

On Kai Ni C, she gains a Night Assault special attack that targets 2 enemies at random:

Attack 1 (1st Ship) Attack 2 (2nd Ship)
Base Multiplier 1.9x
Green T Engagement 1.25x (2.375x)
Red T Engagement 0.75x (1.425x)

  • The attack will consume extra ammo from both participating battleships when triggered. The total ammo consumption will be x1.2 of the original ammo consumption of when the attack is triggered, hence:
    • If it is triggered in a night battle in a normal node, it costs 6% extra ammo.
    • If it is triggered in an night battle node, it costs 2% extra ammo.

  • There is a significant increase in trigger rate if she has a RADAR Surface Radar equipped. The higher the Line of Sight LoS, the bigger the trigger rate bonus. [1]
  • There is a small increase in trigger rate if she has a Searchlight Type 96 150cm SearchlightType 96 150cm Searchlight equipped.
  • It can be activated twice per sortie.
  • It can be activated in the same battle as another separate special attack.

Trivia

  • She is named after Mount Kongou which translates to "indestructible"
  • The radar wings that she and her sisters wear share a similar coloration and design to the alternative name for "金剛" which also means "vajra", but may be more accurately "ghanta" (bells). See this page (scroll to 12th Century) and compare to the CG artwork.
  • She was the last IJN capital ship to be built by a foreign country.
    • Her affinity for tea is based on her British heritage.
  • She was the only Japanese battleship sunk by submarine in the Second World War, and the last battleship sunk by submarine in history.
  • She received her Kai Ni on November 1, 2013.
  • She is still an existing JDS name as of present, along with Kirishima.

Appearances in derivative works

  • Kongou appears in the anime adaptation of Kantai Collection, and was also featured in the adaptation's first trailer. She played a big role in it, as she appears to be the only member of the Fifth Mobile Fleet Fubuki can get along with.
  • Kongou appears as one of the main characters in side:Kongou.
  • Kongou - along with other ships voiced by Nao Touyama - was featured in the first KanColle Drama CD, titled "Hiei's Curry" (比叡、カレーを作る). Due to one seiyuu doing all the voices, the CD's short story is also referred to as "One Nao Show". A translated version of the short story can be found here.
