Analysis

Priority:

  • Kai: Medium
She has low firepower and small slots for a CVL. Her main strength is her medium range at Kai Ni and the ability to perform OASW. She achieves this at a low remodel level compared to the other escort carriers. She is let down by her small slot size and she will face difficulties performing her intended role when up against enemy airpower. While she can equip ASW equipment to take advantage of synergy, she loses effectiveness as a carrier.
  • Kai Ni: Low
She doesn't gain anything with her Kai Ni remodel that justifies the expense. She can perform adequately in her role at Kai. She does gain the ability to unconditionally attack at night, however this attack uses the normal shelling formula so might as well not exist.

Recommended Roles

  • ASW

Not Recommended Roles

  • Combat
  • Air Support

I'm the Converted Carrier Kasuga Maru.

I was a passenger ship built under the Superior Shipbuilding Subsidy Program, but I was turned into a carrier to face combat. After I was done transporting carrier planes, my name was changed to Taiyou and I was reassigned to escort duty. The submarines at night... are scary.[1]

特設航空母艦、「春日丸」です。

優秀船舶建造助成施設によって建造された客船でしたが、戦いに挑み、空母へと改装されました。 航空機の輸送などに努めた後、「大鷹」と名前を変えて、海上護衛の任に就きました。 夜の潜水艦は…怖いですね。
