Character
Appearance
- Artist: Shibafu (しばふ)
- Akagi has long brown hair flowing down straightly. She wears a chest protector (muneate) over white and red clothes and wields a bow and arrows.
Personality
- Seiyuu: Fujita Saki
- She is a foil to Kaga, behaving openly and cheerfully.
- Depicted as gluttonous.
Appearances in derivative works
- Akagi was one of the first characters confirmed to appear in the anime adaptation of Kantai Collection, and was also featured in the adaptation's first trailer.
- Sings "Akatsuki No Suiheisen Ni" with Shoukaku in music album KanColle Vocal Collection (Vol.1).
- In the CCG Weiß Schwarz by Bushiroad, a special version of Akagi is available as a bonus character for the KanColle deck by purchasing more than 4 packs from a certain vendor. The quote on her card is "ボーキサイトの女王と呼んだ人は誰ですか？" which works out as "Who's the one calling me the Queen of Bauxite?" and her card title is "いらっしゃいませ! 赤城" which translates as "Welcome, Akagi!". She also has very different character art.
Trivia
- Scuttled on June 5th, 1942 by IJN destroyers Arashi, Hagikaze, Maikaze, and Nowaki after being heavily damaged by dive bombers from USS Enterprise.
- Obtainable from Quest B10.
- Originally designed as an Amagi-class Battlecruiser, Akagi was converted to a carrier after the instigation of the Washington Naval Treaty in 1921.
- She was the first Fleet Carrier commissioned by Japan. (Kaga was launched before Akagi, but was commissioned after her).
- Dubbed the "Queen of Bauxite" thanks to her reputation for eating up all the Bauxite reserves. Despite her rarity she's fairly accessible via an early quest, causing many new coming admirals to be shocked at her Bauxite-binging and long repair times.
- Another explanation for the "Bauxite Queen" title: during early gameplay, a bug made carriers to consume lots of bauxite at each sortie, but has since been fixed. At that time, Akagi was the only fleet carrier available to most players due to most carrier-dropping areas being yet to be implanted.
- Her name literally means "Red Castle", and comes from Mount Akagi in Gunma Prefecture, Japan.
