Type and Size

There is some (never expect consistency from this game anyway) consistency of size among the ships of the same type.

DE

For DE it's simple they are all flat. Which is normal considering they are all pre-teen.

SS

Most submarines are either flat or have small breasts with some medium breasts and the notable exception of some old submarines having big breasts: I-19, I-8, I-26

Remodel

Indeed the bust size is one of the stats increased by a Kai Ni. This have been explicitely shown during the 2015 anime with Yuudachi Kai Ni during episode 9. Note that it is also shown that Fubuki didn't get a bust upgrade during her own Kai Ni. Also during the more recent KanColle 1944 anime despite not being acknowledged by the characters, Shigure Kai San clearly got an upgrade in the bust department. So it does happen. However, determining if a specific ship got a bust upgrade can be tricky as we often only have two drawings as references sometimes a lot of time between the two. Artists are not perfect and their styles change with time. In addition, a lot of them don't always take this upgrade into account when drawing seasonnal CG. For example Yuudachi in her Halloween CG has the same bust at base and Kai Ni. So if a ship doesn't appear in the following list it either doesn't get an upgrade with Kai Ni or is undetermined.

  • Kiyoshimo got a bra after her Kai Ni.

Abyssalification effect

In KanColle The Movie it is clear that the Abyssal Fubuki has a bigger bust than Fubuki. Indeed the corrupted kanmusu commonly called Abyssals are often quite recognizable despite the different appearance which sometimes includes a different bust size.

We are close to a 50/50 with a slight advantage fro the abyssal. The logical conclusion is that the Abyssification phenomenon most of the time doesn't affect the bust size with some exceptions going either bigger or smaller.

Underwear

This section will list what kanmusu use to cover their breasts under their clothes. Which don't include only bra. Also for a lot of kanmusu it's eiter undermited or they doesn't wear anything.
