Now Viewing: zuikaku_(kantai_collection)Tag type: Character 瑞鶴 ("Auspicious Crane") Zuikaku is the second ship of the Shoukaku-class aircraft carriers in the game Kantai_Collection. The Shoukaku-class ships wear a shorterned miko uniform with arm bracers and thigh boots with propellers protuding from them. Like most archer carriers, they wield a bow_(weapon), their flight deck is attached to one of their arms and wear muneate but theirs has a kana inscribed on it ("ス" in this case). Zuikaku herself has long grey hair (or is it supposed to be black?) in twintails. Her flight deck is attached to her left arm. The straps of her muneate are brown. Unlike Shoukaku_(Kantai_Collection) (but like Zuihou_(Kantai_Collection)), her clothes change color after remodeling. Her skirt becomes brown; her top is now a bluish grey; her muneate, flight deck, arm bracers and her quiver gain a geometric camouflage pattern. For her second remodels, she has the same new set up as Shoukaku before her. The only real difference is that Kai2 keeps the camouflage and Kai2A removes it, returning her to her original color scheme. She also has a different stat spread than Shoukaku, favoring AA and Evasion to her Firepower. She also remodels at different levels. Kai2 at Level 77 and Kai2A at Level 90, the very highest in the game. Often portrayed as being at odds with Kaga_(Kantai_Collection)... if she isn't paired with her, of course. Zuikaku is frequently portrayed as a turkey and her in-game line "don't call me a turkey" is widely used as a joke on 4chan and 2chan. This comes from a historical event American pilots named "the great Marianas turkey shoot". In this event, a fairly even number of Japanese and American carrier planes squared off against each other in an enormous air battle. The difference was that the Japanese had lost most of their veteran airmen prior to this and had to man their planes with hastily trained greenhorns. On the other hand, the American pilots were much better trained and possessed superior planes; their F4U_Corsairs and Grumman_F6F Hellcats were faster, tougher, and better armed than the Japanese plane, the famous A6M_Zero. As a result the Japanese were slaughtered, losing 645 planes, 3 aircraft carriers, 2 oilers and had 6 other ships damaged. The Americans lost 123 planes, and about 60 pilots. pixiv tags: 瑞鶴, 瑞鶴(艦隊これくしょん), 瑞鶴(艦これ) From < danbooru.donmai.us/wiki_pages/48968 > Other Wiki Information Last updated: 01/06/16 2:47 AM by surveyork This entry is not locked and you can edit it as you see fit. |
