* Kai Ni Kou: '''Low'''
===Important Information===
: Her Kai Ni Kou remodel turns her into a light carrier with great firepower, HP and armour. Her plane count is low and her slots are small but she makes an excellent shelling carrier. She shouldn't be used against heavy anti-air because her slots are at risk of being emptied. Her targeting priority is also different compared to other light carriers. She will prioritise surface ships over submarines when both are present.
