Analysis

Priority: Medium

Destroyer escorts, also known as kaiboukan, are cheap, mass-produced vessels focused on ASW, and that's what they should be used for.
With proper gear, they can perform OASW attacks from level 1 and consume very little fuel and ammo, giving an excellent bang for your bucks when it comes to dealing with subs.
However, they are a poor fit for surface combat, so make sure not to expose them to enemy surface ships too much.
The differences in combat stats that actually matter between DEs are minimal, so feel free to use the ones you prefer.
They're also very cheap and easy to sparkle, and can therefore be used in expeditions that do not require a Drum Canister (as they cannot equip those).
Furthermore, they can be used for an unique kind of Modernization that can increase HP, ASW and Luck. Refer to the corresponding page for details on that.

Introduction
Play
I'm the 2nd ship of the Shimushu-class coastal defence ships, Kunashiri. What was that, that's wrong. That's it, you can call me Kuna if you like.
占守型海防艦、その二番艦、国後。何それ? 違うけど? そうね、クナって…呼んでもらってもいいけど。

I'm the 2nd ship of the Shimushu-class coastal defence ships, Kunashiri. Leave protecting the north to me.

Eh, I look a bit plain. What! You know I had the important duty of patrolling Hitokappu Bay before that sortie. I protected all sorts of important places like the Kuril Islands, the La Pérouse Strait, and the Tsugaru Strait​ while based in Oominato. Hey, are you listening? In the end I worked very, very hard on important things. Although I did cause a little bit of trouble for Kamikaze, I did my best![1]

占守型海防艦二番艦、国後よ。北方の護りは任せてよね。

え、地味だろって。何それ!あの出撃の前に単冠湾の哨戒とか、大事な役割も務めたんだから。 大湊を起点に、千島列島や宗谷海峡、津軽海峡など大切なところを守ったの。ねえ、聞いてる? 最後は大切な大切なこと、頑張ったし。ちょっと神風さんに迷惑かけちゃったけど、頑張ったよね、あたし!

A transport mission to the north? An evacuation? Guarding the straits? *sigh* Having so many things to do is troublesome! Commander, aren't you giving me too much work? Eh, what's this? A reward? For me? Is... that so... Eh?[3]

Are you going out today Commander? No, that's not it. I really wanted to tell you to be careful of rainy and foggy days. Otherwise you'll be careless. Eh, me? I'll be fine! What!

  1. "That sortie" refers to the Attack on Pearl Harbour. The fleet that did that attack departed from Hitokappu Bay. Kamikaze ended up grounding herself as well while attempting to rescue Kunashiri after her grounding.
  2. During an incident while pulling into Paramushir, Kunashiri - who was captained by Cmdr Kitamura - received a signal from Nenohi - who was captained by Lt-Cmdr Terauchi - saying "Why have you not saluted us". Kunashiri signalled back "This is Kunashiri" and upon realising who her captain was, the captain of Nenohi went over to apologise after.
  3. She was assigned to guard the Tsugaru Strait in December of 1941.
  4. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  5. Referring to her sister ship Hachijo.
  6. She ran aground on 1946/06/04 and was abandoned.
