Introduction
黒潮や、よろしゅうな。 Kuroshio, nice to meet 'cha!
Library Intro
大阪の民間造船所で建造された、陽炎型駆逐艦の3番艦、黒潮や。

こう見えても、スラバヤ沖海戦、南太平洋沖海戦、 第三次ソロモン海戦などの激戦に参加したんやで。

Built in the Osaka Civilian Naval Yards, 3rd of the Kagero-class Destroyers, Kuroshio.

Even though I look like this, I participated in such hard-fought battles as Surabaya, the South Pacific and the 3rd Battle of Solomon, ya' know.
