Now Viewing: musashi_(kantai_collection)Tag type: Character 武蔵 (Named after the province of Musashi) Musashi is the second of the two Yamato_(Kantai_Collection)-class battleships in the game Kantai_Collection. Mushashi has short_hair, pale blonde_hair/light brown_hair in two_side_up style and twintails with hair_between_eyes. She has brown_eyes or red_eyes and wears glasses. Her body type is distinctive among shipgirls, generally depicted as tall, with dark_skin, and large breasts. Her clothing is likewise distinctive, with a red microskirt, black_legwear thighhighs, an iron collar with an Imperial chrysanthemum seal off of which hangs a small capelet, black gloves, and bandages wrapping her making her only upper torso clothing a functional budget_sarashi. The only visible difference in her remodel_(Kantai_Collection) art is that her red skirt and capelet turn black. Her combat gear (machinery) includes a large, back-mounted "split hull" design with smokestacks behind her back, and battleship hull-like arms bristling with multiple triple-cannon turrets, both larger "main guns" hanging over her shoulders and smaller "secondaries" popping out of the sides of the hull. A third "main gun" is clamped to her right thigh. Also on her thigh, she has armor piercing ammo cartridges strapped to metal garter_straps. She also wears armored high-heel like boots with rudder_shoes. Musashi sports a boastful, battle-hungry personality, contrasting with the more reserved Yamato. Her looks and personality stem from how the actual battleship's sinking involved taking an incredible amount of punishment, although like Yamato, she never actually engaged in surface combat. This may also be in oblique reference to the fact that she shares part of her name with the legendary samurai Miyamoto Musashi [1]. The historical IJN Musashi was sunk on October 24, 1944 during The Battle of Leyte Gulf, and in particular, The Battle of Sibuyuan Sea [2]. Her final resting place was subsequently found [3] on March 2, 2015 in the Sibuyan Sea, Romblon province, Philippines, by an expedition team led by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. This has resulted in the creation of the pixiv tag "武蔵の帰投2015" (Musashi no kitou 2015) / The return of Musashi 2015 [4]. In honor of this the game developers put in a mini event that boosted chance of obtaining Musashi from LSC.
