oboro (kancolle)
朧 (Night Haze)
The personification of the Japanese destroyer Oboro in Kantai Collection.
Character design by Drew, voiced by Hayasaka Kozue.
Appearance
Like other Ayanami-class destroyers, she wears a serafuku, carries her turret in her hands, carries a smokestack as part of her back gear, and has torpedo tubes strapped to her thighs. Her particular trademarks are that she has a bandaid on her cheek and short orangey-brown hair. From Christmas 2015, her first remodel was refined to a new form reflecting Drew's improved art style; see the page for more details.
Her real-life counterpart had a problem with crabs getting into her, so her official art shows a crab peeking out of her smokestack. She is frequently depicted in fanart having the crab with her 24/7 such as on her head or shoulder and treating it as a pet. Sometimes fanart will also depict crabs crawling out of her turrets when she least expects it.
Alternate outfits
In her early summer seasonal CG, she wears a green two-piece swimsuit with the bottom under her usual skirt. Her serafuku top is on her left arm and she wears an orange wrist scrunchie. She carries around a bucket with a crab inside. When damaged, two other crabs appear.
In her autumn CG, she is wearing a green yukata with a "hazy moon" or "Oborozuki" motif with a matching blue obi along with some hair ornaments. She is holding a skewered corn cob along with some books. She still wears her backpack gear and her pet crab is on her shoulder.
