It was not economical to do so. She could have been repaired, but there was little point in that kind of investment seeing as the war ended less than two weeks later. The still-afloat Ushio was scrapped at the same time as the damaged Hatsushimo, along with numerous other ships still left in Japan, whose damage levels ranged from worse than Hatsushimo (Junyou) to nearly unscathed (like many newer destroyers, Matsu-class for instance).
