kawakaze (azur lane)
Ninth ship of the Shiratsuyu-class destroyers, IJN Kawakaze (江風), as she appears in Azur Lane.
Character design by Nagishiro Mito, voiced by Iguchi Yuka.
Base Art
Kawakaze has blue eyes, very long white hair, as well as fox ears and a fox tail that both have accents of black. Her outfit consists of black and white kimono, that also possesses a sailor collar and blue ribbon similar to a serafuku. She wears a black pleated skirt, black thighhighs and heels that appear to be made out of metal plates. She also possesses several straight black katanas.
Skins
Notable Characteristics
Kawakaze in story serves as the bodyguard for Nagato. Her demeanor is typically much colder in comparison to her sisters, likely as a result of such a serious duty.
Due to being drawn by Nagishiro Mito, she bears a striking resemblance to Shirakami Fubuki, seemingly look-alikes (they are both variants to the artist's monochrome-style fox girl design). While it has been pointed out long ago, it came even further to light when the latter became available in the game thanks to a collaboration event in December 2019, Fubuki even having a line pointing this out.
