Analysis
Priority:
- Kai/Kai Ni: Low
- She is just an average light cruiser at Kai with no compensating features. Her Kai Ni doesn't improve her combat stats and actually reduces her combat effectiveness by taking away her ability to perform artillery spotting. She requires the least effort to obtain OASW but that is a minor benefit compared to focusing on more combat oriented light cruisers. Her ASW capability does become more valuable as you progress in the game so you can save your more valuable ASW ships for later event maps. Her AACI has an average fixed shootdown and multiplier. It also requires an inferior equipment loadout so it is best you do not use it.
Recommended Roles
- Combat
- ASW
Not Recommended Roles

Important Info
- Required for A63, A66, B55, B60, and B72.

I was built in the Taisho period as the 2nd ship of the Nagara-class light cruisers.[1]
Naturally I have great speed but I was also commanded by people like Admiral Yamamoto Isoroku and Admiral Yamaguchi Tamon and other pillars of the IJN.[2] Isn't that amazing? |
