翔鶴型航空母艦2番艦、妹の瑞鶴です。
幸運の空母ですって？そうじゃないの、一生懸命やってるだけ…よ。 艦載機がある限り、負けないわ！ |
2nd of the Shoukaku-class aircraft carriers, the younger sister Zuikaku.
The lucky carrier, you say? That's not it, I just fight with all my might.. As long as I have planes, I won't lose! |
(Zuikaku ran out of planes, in the end) | |

翔鶴型航空母艦２番艦、瑞鶴です。
翔鶴姉と共に、ミッドウェーの後の第一機動部隊の中核として、矢尽き刀折れるまで奮戦しました。 文字通り、最後の機動部隊が壊滅する、その日まで…。 |
2nd of the Shoukaku-class aircraft carriers, Zuikaku.
After Midway, I formed the core of the 1st CarDiv with Shoukaku, where I fought until I had nothing left. Quite literally, until the day that the Kidou-butai was destroyed... |
(Zuikaku and Shoukaku did not participate in Midway, and were upgraded to 1st CarDiv due to the loss of Akagi, Kaga, Soryuu, and Hiryuu; she was the last carrier of the Kido-butai to be sunk, thus ending the IJN's aviation power.)
('矢尽き刀折れるまで' lit 'Until the arrows are expended and the sword broken' is to fight until you have no more resources left) | |

Character
Voiced by: Iori Nomizu
Illustrated by: Konishi (コニシ)
Appearance
Zuikaku wears a shortened miko uniform with arm bracers and thigh boots with propellers protruding from them. Like most archer carriers, she wields a bow and wears muneate but hers has a kana inscribed on it ("ス").
Zuikaku has long grey (or green or black) hair in twintails. Her flight deck is attached to her left arm.
Upgrade
Unlike Shoukaku, her clothes changes color after remodeling. Her skirt becomes brown; her top is now a bluish grey; her muneate, flight deck, arm bracers and quiver on her back gain a geometric camouflage pattern.
Personality
Brash, proud and overly confident at times.
Trivia
- High luck value is due to the fact that she did not take much damage until her final battle at Leyte Gulf, while her sister Shoukaku always took heavy damage. Her High luck is also due in part to her name, that makes use of the kanji for "luck" as well as "crane".
- The camouflage pattern of her upgraded model clothes refers to the actual flight deck camouflage pattern used during the Leyte Gulf battle. The same pattern was also used on Zuihou, Chitose and Chiyoda.
- She was sunk by air attack in the Battle of Leyte Gulf on the 25th of October in 1944.
- She is required for quests A23 and B15.
- On October 30th, 2015, following the release of her second remodel, there was a discrepancy with Zuikaku's image that the artist, Konishi, took notice of once he saw her new art in-game. Konishi would later tweet that her aspect ratios got squashed down a little bit. There was a noticeable difference in the image used in-game versus his original concept. Later that same day the developers took notice and announced they would be patching in the correct image the following day. The image has since been replaced with the correct version. It was revealed that Konishi had simply sent the wrong file to the devlopers as there were many revisions to Zuikaku's new design. The tweets in which Konishi noted the mistake and those containing the comparison images were later removed. [1]
