Edit
The personification of the 24th and last Fubuki-class destroyer and/or 4th and last Akatsuki-class destroyer in Kantai Collection.
Character design by Yadokari, voiced by Suzaki Aya.
Appearance
The Akatsuki-class wears a white and dark blue serafuku with a "III" somewhere on themselves as well as some form of black legwear. Inazuma herself has long brown hair in her signature folded ponytail and calf-length kneehighs. The "III" is on her right kidney.
Personality
A shy and innocent girl, she is also one of the 5 starter ships and is well known for her catchphrase "Nanodesu!". She is seemingly the most popular starter ship by a mile with Pixiv artists.
Inazuma historically collided with Miyuki, and a transport, and all the other warships that had also been named Inazuma (besides the most recent version, which is still in active service) have collided with another ship, leading her to be portrayed as often clumsy (and that she has a killer headbutt...).
Inazuma's name means "Lightning", so sometimes she is called "Den-chan", with "Den" being another name for lightning (and another reading of the Kanji). The same "Den" can be the first part of the Japanese word for "radar" (Dentan), so occasional puns are made about Inazuma being a radar, or being taken as a replacement for radar.
She also has a dark persona sometimes called Plasma-Chan. This is a joke that originated in a comic where an artist put his words of hatred for another artist named Nasu (whose name means "eggplant"). Depending on the artist, Inazuma might slip back and forth into Plasma-chan in various ways, from being an irrational response to eggplants, to being "Inazuma's serious side", to simply being an always-psychotic character among some artists with darker proclivities.
Several authors like to portray innocent Inazuma breaking down into the darker version due to a shitty admiral's incompetence or trolling. In such cases, her catchphrase sometimes becomes "nanoDEATH", and she takes on severely intimidating aura. This often overlaps significantly with Plasma-Chan.
