** [[Abukuma|Abukuma Kai Ni]] has high stats overall (except for firepower) and can equip [[Kouhyouteki]] Midget Subs and [[Daihatsu Landing Craft]]s; in addition, she is still classified as a CL for routing and can still equip seaplanes.

*** [[Yura|Yura Kai Ni]] is similar to Abukuma in that she can equip [[Kouhyouteki]] and Landing Crafts, but has considerably lower offensive stats in exchange for the best Anti-Air stat of all light cruisers and the ability to carry [[Seaplane|Seaplane Bombers or Fighters]]. Additionally, she can use [[8cm High-angle Gun]] and [[8cm High-angle Gun Kai + Additional Machine Guns]] in her [[Reinforcement Expansion]] slot, freeing up her main slots while still letting her do a Double Attack during Night Battles. Due to her versatility, her remodel level is quite high (77) and requires a blueprint as well.

** [[Kuma]], [[Nagara]] and [[Natori]] have very good stats (comparable to other CL Kai Nis) with their remodels at level 20. However, they can be difficult to obtain on early worlds.
