The 231 class locomotive is a 4-6-2 "Pacific" type metre gauge steam locomotive in use on Vietnam Railways and the Royal Railways of Cambodia.[1]

Vietnam

[edit]

There were three subclasses of the 231 class built for use in French Indochina: 231-301, 231-401, and 231-501.

231-300 Class

[edit]

SACM delivered ten locomotives in 1933. These were a lighter variation of similar locomotives built for Tunisia in 1914 and 1928.[2]

231-400 Class

[edit]

These locomotives were built by Hanomag in Germany, and were delivered in 1930 as part of World War I reparations.[3]

[edit]

These locomotives were built by SACM between 1938 and 1939.

Destroyers

[edit]
Fubuki (吹雪)
Voiced by: Sumire Uesaka (Japanese); Felecia Angelle (English)[1]
A newcomer destroyer to the naval base, and assigned to the Third Torpedo Squadron (第三水雷戦隊, Dai-san suirai sentai), Fubuki is the main protagonist of the first season of the series. Meek and timid, at the beginning of the series she has no combat experience prior to transferring to the base, and performs poorly at physical activity. She is assigned temporarily to the Southwest Area Fleet (南西方面艦隊, Nansei hōmen kantai) during the Battle of Southwest Area, before being transferred to the Fifth Mobile Fleet (第五遊撃部隊, Dai-go yūgeki butai) during Operation MO and Operation FS, where she earns the respect of her peers, who choose her as their Flagship. Having a deep admiration for Akagi, she dreams of eventually becoming her escort, eventually doing so following her first remodel.
Mutsuki (睦月)
Voiced by: Rina Hidaka (Japanese); Cherami Leigh (English)[1]
One of the members of the Third Torpedo Squadron. The first kanmusu Fubuki meets on the base, Mutsuki has a cheerful and responsible personality. She is later transferred to the Fourth Fleet (第四艦隊, Dai-yon kantai) with Mogami during Operation FS.
Yūdachi (夕立)
Voiced by: Yumi Tanibe (Japanese); Leah Clark (English)[1]
Another destroyer of the Third Torpedo Squadron, alongside Fubuki and Mutsuki, who has a laid back attitude. She has a verbal tic as she speaks, often inserting "poi" into her sentences. She is later transferred to Naka's fleet during Operation FS, before getting a second remodel and being transferred again to the First Carrier Task Force (第一機動部隊, Dai-ichi kidō butai) (consisting of Akagi).
Kisaragi (如月)
Voiced by: Rina Hidaka (Japanese); Kasi Hollowell (English)[1]
Another destroyer who is instead assigned to the Fourth Torpedo Squadron (第四水雷戦隊, Dai-yon suirai sentai) during the Battle of W island. She has a mature personality, even more mature than her older sister Mutsuki. She is sunk during the Battle of W island.
Yayoi (弥生), Mochizuki (望月)
Voiced by: Rina Hidaka (Japanese); Alison Viktorin (Yayoi), Jill Harris (Mochizuki) (English)[1]
Two destroyers whom Fubuki and Mutsuki met during the briefing session of the W Island raid. Mochizuki is quite a sleepyhead, while Yayoi is rather emotionless. Both are later assigned to the Fourth Torpedo Squadron during the Battle of W island.
Akatsuki (), Hibiki (), Ikazuchi (), Inazuma ()
Voiced by: Aya Suzaki (Japanese); Monica Rial (Akatsuki), Apphia Yu (Hibiki), Lara Woodhull (Ikazuchi), Camille Liedtka (Inazuma) (English)[1]
Four destroyers belonging to the Sixth Destroyer Division (第六駆逐隊, Dai-roku kuchikutai) and assigned to the Second Support Fleet (第二支援艦隊, Dai-ni shien kantai) (Akatsuki and Hibiki) and the First Carrier Task Force (Ikazuchi and Inazuma) during the Battle of the Sea in Front of the Naval Base. Akatsuki considers herself an adult lady, while Hibiki tends to speak Russian frequently, rarely saying anything but "хорошо" (Khorosho, "Very well" in Russian), Ikazuchi has a very caring and confident personality, and Inazuma is a timid girl. Akatsuki and Ikazuchi do not get along very well, as they constantly argue about whatever went wrong, such as Inazuma using a flamethrower to boil their curry faster only to end up burning the entire pot, making Inazuma cry and blame herself for the failure.
Shimakaze (島風)
Voiced by: Ayane Sakura (Japanese); Megan Shipman (English)[1]
A destroyer who claims herself to be the fastest in the whole fleet, and indeed is. She is assigned to the Southwest Area Fleet during the Battle of Southwest Area. She has a hyperactive personality and tends to jump around rooms like a rabbit while waiting, to the point of forgetting what her next mission is.

Aircraft carriers

[edit]

Light aircraft carriers

[edit]
Shōhō (祥鳳)
A light aircraft carrier of another naval base. During Operation MO, She is assigned to the MO Strategy Main Force (MO攻略本隊, Emu Ō Kōryaku Hontai) along with Aoba, Furutaka, Kako and Kinugasa, is sortied along with the Covering Force (掩護部隊, Engo Butai) of Tenryū and Tatsuta, but she is badly damaged by the air raid of enemy aircraft carriers.
Chitose (千歳), Chiyoda (千代田)
Two seaplane carriers briefly appearing in a reconnaissance before Operation MI.
Houshou (鳳翔)

Battleships/Battlecruisers

[edit]
Kongō (金剛), Hiei (比叡), Haruna (榛名), Kirishima (霧島)
Voiced by: Nao Tōyama (Japanese); Alexis Tipton (Kongō), Dawn M. Bennett (Hiei), Bryn Apprill (Haruna), Trina Nishimura (Kirishima) (English)[1]
These four battlecruisers are assigned to the Second Support Fleet (Kongō and Hiei) and the Fourth Fleet (Haruna and Kirishima) during the Battle of the Sea in Front of the Naval Base. During the Battle of W island, they operated together as members of the Second Fleet (第二艦隊, Dai-ni kantai), and later as part of the Southwest Area Fleet during the Battle of Southwest Area.
These four kanmusu have different personalities, but are all generally airheaded and excitable, to Mutsu's amusement and Fubuki's chagrin. Kongō is cheerful and has a habit of mixing English words into her speech, reflecting the fact that the ship whose spirit she represents was built in Britain. Hiei has an elder sister complex towards Kongō, right down to being jealous whenever she is ignored. Haruna is humble and speaks in third person, while Kirishima has a habit of testing microphones.
During Operation MO and Operation FS Kongō is transferred to the Fifth Mobile Fleet, where she operates separate from her sister ships.
Nagato (長門), Mutsu (陸奥)
Voiced by: Ayane Sakura (Japanese); Elizabeth Maxwell (Nagato), Morgan Garrett (Mutsu) (English)[1]
Two battleships who take on a command role from within the communications room of the naval base, relaying orders from the admiral to the fleets. Nagato does most of the commanding, while Mutsu acts as an assistant. Nagato is the serious and no-nonsense voice of authority but has a soft spot for cute animals and acts gruff to conceal her softer side, while Mutsu is more demure and seductive.
Yamato (大和)
Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu (Japanese); Christina Kelly (English)[1]
The most powerful battleship ever built, she is the navy's trump card and her existence has been kept a secret. She runs a forward base in Truk Lagoon during Operation FS. However, due to her need for large quantities of food and supplies, she has limited experience at sea. Historically, her living conditions were luxurious hence her nickname "Hotel Yamato", a moniker she dislikes.

Heavy cruisers

[edit]

Light cruisers

[edit]
Sendai (川内), Jintsū (神通), Naka (那珂)
Voiced by: Ayane Sakura (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski (Sendai), Natalie Hoover (Jintsū), Jad Saxton (Naka) (English)[1]
Three light cruisers belonging to the Third Torpedo Squadron. They give Fubuki different training sessions unique to them. Sendai trains Fubuki in balancing (since Special Type Destroyers tend to randomly lose balance), Jintsū in target accuracy, and Naka in confidence (i.e. smiling and standing out in front of other kanmusu). Jintsū is the flagship of the Third Torpedo Squadron.
These three kanmusu have different characteristics. Sendai looks energetic and loves night battles. Jintsū is gentle and quiet but also responsible. Naka is always active and happy, likes singing and dancing, even identifying herself as the idol of the fleet.
Naka would later be transferred to another fleet which also consists of former Third Torpedo Squadron member Yūdachi during Operation FS.

Others

[edit]
Mamiya (間宮)
Voiced by: Yui Horie (Japanese); Mallorie Rodak (English)[1]
A food supply ship who works as a chef at the naval base's restaurant and sweets cafe Mamiya (甘味処 間宮, Kanmi-dokoro Mamiya). She mostly makes sweets like parfait for the kanmusu.
Admiral (Commander) (提督 (司令官), Teitoku (Shireikan))
The admiral of all the kanmusu, only shown through shadow or first-person view. It is assumed that the faceless and voiceless portrayal is in order to not interfere with the viewers' own vision of the admiral, as the game's admirals are the players themselves. The Admiral's gender is also ambiguous, though Crunchyroll's subtitled release refers to as a male.[citation needed]

Season 2

[edit]

Destroyers

[edit]
Shigure (時雨)
Voiced by: Yumi Tanibe[2]
Also known as "Shigure of Sasebo" due to her history of surviving many battlefields. She was previously part of the 27th Destroyer Division, but in the past, all the other ships were sunk. At the start of the story, Shigure was part of the 2nd Torpedo Squadron, but was ordered to transfer to the 3rd Division of the 1st Striking Force.
Although she has a calm and kind personality, she also has the inner strength to continue fighting even when the war situation worsens, following her personal motto, "There is no rain that never stops."
Before entering Surigao Strait, Yamashiro gives Shigure one of her hair ornaments, with the inscription "Even if I'm no longer here, please protect the fleet and my sister (Fusou)."
In Surigao Strait, Shigure fought the Abyssals while keeping an eye on her allies, and towards the end she supported Yamashiro's approach to the Strait Night Princess with her main guns and torpedoes, creating an opening for Yamashiro to attack.
At Sasebo, while sightseeing, Shigure becomes friends with Yukikaze, who is her roommate at an inn. During the subsequent training exercise, Yahagi shows impressive teamwork with Yukikaze, even though it is an improvisation. This also leads to them calling each other "Yuki" and "Gure."
While keeping Ryuho company, Shigure runs out of depth charges due to the large number of enemy submarines and nearly loses her life, but she manages to survive safely thanks to a new type of depth charge left behind by Yamashiro.
In the Maritime Guerrilla Warfare arc, Shigure undergoes a major remodel with encouragement from the admiral, who says, "You can't change the past, but you can change the future by looking at it." Using her past combat history, experience, and training as a foundation, she gains new powers and becomes Shigure Kai San.
Yukikaze (雪風)
Voiced by: Saki Fujita
Nicknamed "Yukikaze of Kure" due to her history of fighting in many battlefields. She has a bright and innocent personality. She is elusive and a free spirit, and she has stolen meals sent to Shigure and Isokaze from Hamakaze, and when she returned from a guerrilla operation, she threw away her own equipment, confusing the maintenance staff.
In Surigao Strait battle, Yukikaze stepped into the line of fire of the Ru-class battleship that was about to attack Yamashiro and Shigure, and while provoking it, she fired five torpedoes as they passed each other, destroying the Ru-class battleship.
In the Sasebo arc, she becomes close with Shigure after sharing a room with her at an inn. After that, she is transferred to the Second Torpedo Squadron, and during training, she shows her high reconnaissance skills by noticing the bombing of the training Zuiun[clarify] before anyone else, and discovering I-47 and I-58 hiding underwater and immediately counterattacking with depth charges.
Yukikaze was ordered to serve in the Hi 87 convoy, but she was unable to set out because she ate too many mandarin oranges that caused her engine to malfunction.
In the subsequent Maritime Guerrilla Warfare arc, she recovers from her breakdown and sets out with Yahagi and others as part of a guerrilla force.

Abyssal Fleet

[edit]
Wo-class aircraft carrier
Standard aircraft carriers of the Abyssal Fleet. Flagship variants are distinguishable by yellow phosphorescence in their eyes. One appears during Operation MO, intercepting the Naval Base's encrypted communications, and surprise attacks the 5th Striking Force, causing moderate damage to Shokaku, but is forced to retreat after a desperate counterattack from Zuikaku and Shokaku and the rescue of Fubuki, leaving the Wo-class carrier with a wound in her left eye.
Afterwards, she becomes a modified flagship and launches a surprise attack on the weakened naval base in Operation FS. She also stands in the way of the shipgirls in Operation MI.
