teruzuki (kantai collection)
Teruzuki ("Shining Moon" or "Pale Moon") is the second Akizuki-class destroyer in Kantai Collection.
Teruzuki has a very soft-spoken tone and nervous personality, and looks up to her sister-ship Akizuki. When damaged, her worries about torpedoes and desire to jettison her own munitions stem from how detonation of her depth charges sank her historically.
She has mostly the same gear as her elder sister, Akizuki, including her own pair of Chou-10cm-hou-chan. The main differences are her bodysuit (it's sleeveless instead of having merely short sleeves), her skirt (black with white stripe instead of the inverse), her boots (they are fully red instead of being light gray and red), the placement of her Fire Detector (on her chest, holding her neckerchief instead of in her hair), the gear on her thighs (drum magazines for her Chou-10cm-hou-chan) and the expressions of her own Chou-10cm-hou-chan (they both have a closed eye, one of them is biting a bullet as if it was a cigar).
She has long light brown hair in twin braids with propeller hair ornaments on the tips as well as grey eyes. The combination of black-and-white clothing and light brown hair give her some resemblance to Mutsu.
Historically, she sank only 105 days after being sent into active duty, making her the second-shortest-lived ship in the game, after only Takanami. Serving in both battles of Guadalcanal, she did assist both Hiei and Kirishima, and rescued survivors. However, a month later, she was hit by PT boat torpedoes on a transport run in Guadalcanal, and fires spread to her depth charges, starting a chain reaction that ultimately sank her.
