Character
Appearance
- The Myoukou-class wears a purple uniform with a black tight skirt, white pantyhose and white elbow gloves. Ashigara herself has wavy long brown hairwith a white horned hairband as well as brown eyes
Personality
- Ashigara is a shipgirl with a strong and independent persona. She is also said to be a good cook (mostly curry) and has a voluptuous, womanly figure. Well-known for her obsession with victory, almost on a level equivalent to Sendai's obsession with night battles. She is nicknamed "Hungry Wolf", which was given during the naval review celebrating King George VI's coronation where she was Japan's representative. Because of this nickname, it's not uncommon to draw her with wolf ears and/or fangs.
- A running gag on 4chan and 2chan is that she is a "Christmas Cake"; a woman above 25 who for whatever reason is unable to find a candidate for marriage and has gotten desperate, or one who is just exceptionally poor at romance. Where exactly this joke came from is unknown. It could be a play on her nickname "Hungry Wolf" - a joke on her being hungry for males, or could be a reference to the historical fact that several of her commanding officers were never married. It's also possible the joke came from her name "purity", which is usually thought of as a good thing but it's possible the joke is she's still "pure" (virgin, unmarried) despite her mid-to-late 20s look. One other theory about her being a "Christmas Cake" is related to the legend of the folk-hero Kintaro who was raised in Mount Ashigara by a Yama-uba , or in other words, a Mountain Hag. Like the "Nagamon" meme, this fan-created joke was featured in the anime.
Trivia
- Sunk in action by HMS Trenchant 8th June 1945, having the distinction (or not) of being the longest range torpedo kill of the war.
- Ashigara was the last major Japanese warship to be sunk in battle. While other ships were sunk later in the war, bombing raids sunk the rest at or near docks.
- Ashigara was known as the Hungry Wolf due to a description by British journalists criticizing her spartan quarters and a design focused on effectiveness over livability. The Japanese chose to take it as a compliment, instead.
- However, this story has no English confirmation at this time as described by these comments.
- Her scarf's pattern is probably based on those decked out international signal flags. The top-left is obviously based on the Z flag that's famously associated with Admiral Tōgō Heihachirō's announcement "The Empire's fate depends on the result of this battle, let every man do his utmost duty." right before the Battle of Tsushima. Apart from that there's also "G" ("I require a pilot"), "L" ("You should stop your vessel instantly"), "M" ("My vessel is stopped and making no way through the water"), "X" ("Stop carrying out your intentions and watch for my signals"), "Y" ("I am dragging my anchor") and so on. Furthermore, if you read the G on the right and Z together as a single flag signal it means "All persons saved". It reminds of how she helped rescue the crew of Kiyoshimo during Operation Rei-Go a.k.a. the Battle of Mindoro.
- Received her Kai Ni on 26th December, 2014.
- Appears in the anime adaption as a teacher for the Third Torpedo Squadron.
