Introduction

I'm a submarine that was born and raised in Kure.

After the great Battle of Midway, I managed to land the finishing blow on Yorktown that Hiryuu had seriously damaged in her final moments.[1] I manage to shoulder the carriers' grudges! I also worked hard during the transport mission to that terrible island.[2]

生まれも育ちも呉の潜水艦なの。

あのミッドウェーの大海戦のあと、飛龍が最後の力で深手を負わせたヨークタウンに留めを刺したのよ! 空母たちの仇は取ったわ!あの大変な島への輸送任務でも頑張ったの。

  1. The Yorktown was initially knocked out of commission by Hiryuu's last strike, I-168 then ambushed and sunk Yorktown after the battle while she was being towed.
  2. She transported food to Guadalcanal in 1943.
  3. The "I-go" (伊号) refers to the 1st class (above 1,000 tons displacement) submarines of the IJN as opposed to the "Ro-go" (呂号) or "Ha-go" (波号) which were 2nd class (below 1,000 tons displacement/foreign gift ships).
  4. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
