Her rigging is themed to act as a chair for her to sit on, with her three 310 mm triple gun mounts to her sides (two on left, one on right) on bow pieces, as well as two 100 mm twin DP mounts to her sides at shoulder level. She also has a reconnaissance seaplane to her lower left, while she uses a katana as a melee weapon.
Trivia
Azuma is a never-built ship based on one of Japan's Project B-65 proposals. The B-65 project was intended to create a "super-cruiser" meant to replace the aging Kongou-class battlecruisers and lead the IJN's cruiser squadrons into a planned "Decisive Battle" against the US Navy. Her purpose during such an engagement was to lay down heavy barrages against American heavy cruisers while being resistant to any return fire from them. While extensive design work had been carried out, no ships were laid down as Japan's focus shifted to replacing their extensive carrier losses after the battle of Midway and materials grew scarce.
As a reference to World of Warships, as per the collab, Azuma gains an ability based off of the "Demolition Expert" skill, increasing her high explosive damage and chance to set fires.
