'''Hidden Fit Bonuses'''
* She has accuracy and firepower bonuses when equipped with certain medium guns. Please see [[Gun Fit Bonuses]] for mode details.
===Analysis===
Priority:
* Kai: '''Low'''
: She is just an average light cruiser at Kai with no compensating features.
* Kai Ni: '''Medium'''
: Her Kai Ni doesn't do much to improve her combat stats but she does gain a boost to her ASW and survivability. What she does gain is unparalleled versatility which is well worth the high remodel level and blueprint cost. She is certainly a "jack of all trades master of none". Her low overall stats means she loses out to more specialised light cruisers like [[Abukuma]] or [[Tama]] but her multi-role capability means she is still valuable in the long term. Critically, she is only the second CL capable of running opening torpedoes, allowing her to act as a substitute for when Abukuma needs to be saved.
Although she can carry both Daihatsu and Ka-Mi tanks, her low firepower means her effectiveness against installations is limited. It is also a waste of her capabilities. It does mean that she can be used to maximise expedition gains. Her AACI is, like like most other non-specialized AACIs, extremely mediocre. She is also one of the few ships where a Reinforcement Expansion is mandatory.
