A tomboyish swordswoman, based on the real-life Japanese light cruiser Tenryuu, as well as a sister ship to Tatsuta. In the movie, she's part of the Mikawa Fleet, taking part in a night battle where she duels a Ne-Class Heavy Cruiser. Despite her tough demeanor, she seems to be scared of ghosts, much to Tatsuta's amusement. Her catchphrase is "Fufufu, ya scared?" (フフフ、怖いか?). In various pieces of Kancolle tie-in media, she's portrayed as a sort of mentor/wannabe parental figure to younger shipgirls, stemming from an injoke among Japanese fans of the original game where a team consisting of Tenryuu and several destroyers (inspired by the real-life plans for Tenryuu-class ships to serve as flagships for destroyer squadrons) is commonly referred to as "Tenryuu's Kindergarten" (艦これ名物天龍幼稚園).
