Appearance

 * Artist: Shizuma Yoshinori (しずまよしのり)
 * She is compared to a snail and slug due to her horn-like headgear. Nagato's headgear is similar but more back-swept, probably sparing her from similar nicknames.

Personality
In the anime, Mutsu is shown to be calm and collected in times of crisis and sadness. She can be seen comforting Secretary Ship Nagato towards the end of Episode 3 after the Naval District's attempt at a surprise attack on W Island failed and a fellow fleet girl was sunk. As the anime progresses towards the middle of it's season, she receives somewhat of a leap in screen time along with Secretary Ship Nagato. She uses this screen time to repeatedly undo Secretary Ship Nagato's cool and collected personality and to tease her. She has been seen to repeatedly flirt with the Secretary Ship and she even went as far as to call Nagato, "Mine." She has openly admitted to Nagato that she holds affection/love/a crush for the fleet girl. She is almost always with Secretary Ship Nagato, there being rare instances where the Secretary Ship was alone with the other fleet girls to console them or to talk with the Commander. There are no current instances where she has been seen alone with other fleet girls.
 * Seiyuu: Sakura Ayane
