Mikura is the nameship of the Mikura-class coastal defense ships (kaibōkan), as represented in Kantai Collection, named after Mikura-jima, one of the Izu islands. She also happens to be Uchida Shuu's first non-english speaking role in the game.
She is designed by acea4, the second Taiwanese artist to contribute a ship-girl design after zeco, as well as an ascended fan of the game. Her design follows the same design language used for the characters in their Tan Yang doujins.
Mikura has long grey hair with a subtle but noticeable hue change from a yellowish to pinkish grey, styled in low twintails, along with green eyes. Her outfit consists of an eclectic mix of Japanese and western clothing. Her top consists of a white sailor shirt with puffy short sleeves, a blue sailor collar, a distinct "bib" and a knotwork tie (similar to the Chitose-class) over a white undershirt. Her bottom is a red pleated skirt with hip vents. She also wears a sailor hat, white gloves, and white socks. The last accessory is a small dolphin pin on her collar, referring to her namesake island's dolphins (she thus joins Taigei's club of wearing cetacean-shaped pins).
She is often nicknamed "Okra" due to alternate kanji readings (The "Mi" in "Mikura" can also be read as "O"), even by her artist.
