How should we call her then? Gamby? Gam-Chan? (Dunno how she'll look like but since Taiyo's pretty smol I reckon somehing along that lines.

And new class of DEs. Mikura this time? I think Hiburi is sub-type of that class. No, Mikura-class is the predecessor of Hiburi.

Shimushu->Etorofu->Mikura->Hiburi->Ukuru, C and D

Mikura was initially designated as a B class escort ship, but was later "promoted" to A-class escort ships like Shimushu, Etorofu and the like. So if you check the Japanese wiki, you'll see the "successor" of Etorofu being Hiburi, but the predecessor of Hiburi being Mikura.

As for Gambier, people in my country are referring to her as "USS Game Boy"....
