Isuzu (五十鈴 軽巡洋艦 Isuzu keijun'yōkan?) was one of six Nagara-class cruisers in the Imperial Japanese Navy. It was named after the Isuzu
River, near Ise Shrine in the Chūbu region of Japan.
Appearance[]
The first half of the Nagara-class wears the same uniform, it consists of a Miko-like sleeveless serafuku with shide-like ornaments under the armpits, a maroon collar, a black scarf, a short red pleated skirt and detached sleeves. Several 14cm guns are attached to the user and one of these is built like a bullpup assault rifle.
Isuzu herself has long dark-blue hair in twintails as well as blue eyes.
The sole member of her class with a second remodel, her new uniform now features a white collar and a radar headband while she gained several chest sizes. She now holds two guns, a bullpup-like Twin 12.7 cm AA gun and a SMG-like Triple 25mm AA gun holding a depth charge. This came with much stronger AA and ASW stats but a short attack range if she isn't given a surface gun.
Personality[]
She is notorious for being "farmed" for the radars she gets at level 12, as well as the large amount of Anti-Air she gives for modernisation.
