Trivia
- Scuttled by Fujinami after gunfire/bomb damage in Battle off Samar, October 25, 1944
- Her torpedo armament was detonated by the single stern-mounted 5-inch secondary battery of the escort carrier she was chasing, the USS White Plains (CVE-66). Due to the location of the torpedo launchers (amidships, right next to the engine room and boilers, as opposed to the stern mounting location on other IJN heavy cruiser classes), the explosion set off a chain reaction which effectively crippled the ship, rendering it vulnerable to subsequent air attacks that led to the evacuation of its surviving crew and scuttling by Fujinami.
- Fujinami herself was later sunk by air attacks with all hands aboard. This makes Choukai one of the largest vessels to be sunk with all hands aboard during World War II.
- Probably the deepest-known wreck, due to the fact she was sunk directly above the Philippine Trench, and probably lies in about 26,600 feet (8107m in metric units) of water, well beyond the reach of manned submersibles.
- Named after Mt. Choukai in Tōhoku region.
- She appeared in the first Kancolle Drama CD, also dubbed One Nao show, along with other characters in a mini skit. Link to show: https://soundcloud.com/masapusan/one-nao-show (TL is included in comments)
