south dakota (kancolle)

Kantai Collection's personification of the US Navy battleship USS South Dakota (BB-57). Character design by Zeco.

She has long blue hair with red and white streaks, grey eyes, and large breasts.

Her default outfit consists of a short-sleeved brown jacket, sleeveless white midriff, black necktie, black elbow gloves, black pencil skirt, black see-through single leg pantyhose, and mismatched thighhighs (solid black on her right, see-through on her left).

Her rigging consists of two split hull pieces containing her three 16-inch/406mm triple turrets and eight 5-inch/127mm twin dual-purpose mounts, with her real-life mainmast as a staff.

She is oftentimes depicted with Kirishima, who helped cause great damage to South Dakota during the second naval battle of Guadalcanal and in turn was inflicted fatal damage from Washington's firepower. South Dakota and Washington are also depicted as not being in good terms, reflecting the great rivalry their crews had. There is an electrical switch on the left side of her gear, which can be observed more clearly on her damaged art. In her kai art, a yellow warning stripe is taped over the switch, referring to her infamous short circuit incident during the battle.

She is unique in having not one but two Abyssal forms: New Southern Battleship Princess and Twilight Water Demon Eldest Daughter.
