北方棲姫 ほっぽ ほっぽちゃん 敵艦隊のチャイドル あくたん
E2 Stage boss of Kantai Collection's Aleutian Islands / Midway Islands Summer 2014 Event. Also known as "Northern Princess", and based off Dutch Harbor.
She is depicted with long white hair, red eyes, two small triangular horns, a white sleeveless dress, white mittens, black side-tie panties, bare feet and an ahoge.
The youngest by appearance in the Shinkaisei-kan's fleet of "Himes", she is often depicted as the child character of said fleet. Due to similar appearances, Seaport Hime is often seen as the parent-like figure, and Airfield Hime as her elder sister. She is also shown together with Midway Hime and Aircraft Carrier Hime, whose first appearances are in the same Summer Event. She is also associated with Ryuujou, as the Akutan Zero (see below) originally belonged to her.
The latter two tags here are relative puns on the source of the name. "Hoppo-chan" comes from the first two kanji (pronounced "Hoppo"). "Akutan" comes from Akutan Zero, a type of fighter plane (specifically of the Mitsubishi A6M Zero line) recovered from Dutch Harbor by the US during said campaign.
Her sudden overwhelming popularity led the developers to turn her into a mainstay for 3-5. Because of this, she also has numerous seasonal CG:
Her catchphrase kaere! (カエレ!) is officially translated as "Go back!", but a popular alternate translation has it as "Go home!".
