How to Obtain
  Available. Buildable from Basic Construction or as a common drop from selected worlds.

Inazuma is a starter ship, so she is one of the 6 starter ships obtainable during the tutorial.

Inazuma is commonly available as a drop from these worlds:
 * World 1-1: 鎮守府正面海域 Sea in Front of the Naval Base
 * World 1-2: 南西諸島沖 Sea around the Nansei Islands
 * World 1-3: 製油所地帯沿岸 Coastal Refinery Zone
 * World 1-4: 南西諸島防衛線 Hold the Line at the Nansei Islands
 * World 1-5: 【Extra Operation】 鎮守府近海 Adjacent Seas of the Naval Base

Appearance

 * Artist: Yadokari (やどかり)
 * Clad in a similar serafuku to the rest of her class with an anchor emblem on the chest.
 * Her tights are noticeably shorter than those of her sister-ships.
 * She has brown hair with a small ponytail that is slightly disheveled in a similar manner to her sisters.
 * Another trait shared with her sisters is the matching colour of her eyes and hair.

Personality

 * Seiyuu: Suzaki Aya (洲崎綾)
 * Depicted as very timid, in contrast with Ikazuchi's outgoing personality.
 * Pacifistic, as a reference to her rescue of 527 American and British sailors following the Second Battle of the Java Sea.
 * Frequently ends her lines with "なのです (Nanodesu)", which is often used as a moe variation of "です (Desu)". Despite this usage, "なのです" is not equivalent to "です" and cannot be freely substituted. Grammatically, this is used as a soft sounding question "なのですか” or "なの?" but more often, it is used as an explanation or marker of relevant information (it is the same and follows all of the same rules as  -んです, as they are actually the same grammar). It should be noted that in many cases, moe characters (including Inazuma) use "なのです” in an ungrammatical way, which contributes to the intended cuteness.

Trivia

 * Sunk in action May 14, 1944 in the Celebes Sea near Tawi-Tawi, Philippines (05°08′N 119°38′E).
 * The first Inazuma was the second ship of the 1899 Ikazuchi-class Torpedo Boat Destroyers. This Inazuma was the second destroyer Japan procured, the first being the 1899 Ikazuchi. Her modern incarnations in the JMSDF include being an Ikazuchi class destroyer escort and more recently, a Murasame class destroyer.
 * From the first Japanese Navy all the way to JMSDF, she is always seen accompanying Ikazuchi in one form or another.
 * Her name means "Lightning".
 * Kongou uses "Raiden" as her and Ikazuchi 's nickname in the anime.


 * If you combine Inazuma and Ikazuchi's Kanji characters, it forms the word Denpa, or electricity.
 * Inazuma is known to be involved in several incidents of collisions with other ships, both during the Imperial Japanese Navy and the JMSDF eras. Only the current Murasame-class Inazuma has no records of collision so far.
