ru-class battleship

An abyssal battleship in Kantai Collection.

Quite arguably one of the most hated enemy battleships, as well as most feared, due to her being a very powerful and common enemy that appears very early on, in world 1-3. Her appearance marks the real start of the game.

She is one of the more humanoid of the common enemies with long black hair, sporting a black tank top, pants, pauldrons, and armed with a pair of cannons, possible 16in triple cannons, that is as big as her and 4 turrets on her back. Her eyes glow and burn with destruction.

Powerful, beautiful, and extremely deadly, any Admiral, new or old, foolish enough to run in and try to face her without proper preparation tend to end up with nothing but red shipgirls upon return from sortie, if any are lucky enough to even return.
