Base and kai
ashigara (kancolle)
Kantai Collection's personification of the Japanese heavy cruiser Ashigara. Character design by Bob, voiced by Taneda Risa.
She wavy long brown hair with a white hairband, and brown eyes. She wears the Myoukou-class purple military uniform with puffy short sleeves, a black pencil skirt, white pantyhose and white elbow gloves.
Her rigging consists of two 20.3 cm twin gun mounts on her shoulders, her real-life bridge split across both of her elbow gloves, a third 20.3 cm twin mount on her right glove, and four 61 cm quad torpedo tubes on her waistline and thigh straps.

Personality
Ashigara is a shipgirl well-known for her obsession with victory, almost on a level equivalent to Sendai's obsession with night battles. She is nicknamed Hungry Wolf, which was (allegedly) given during the naval review celebrating King George VI's coronation where she was Japan's representative, with regards to her living conditions, described as "Spartan" compared to those of other navies in attendance. Because of this nickname, it's not uncommon to draw her with wolf ears and/or fangs.
A running gag portrays her as a "Christmas Cake"; a woman above 25 who for whatever reason is unable to find a candidate for marriage, a reference to her namesake mountain's association with the folk hero Kintaro, who was raised in Mount Ashigara by a Yama-uba: a mountain hag. Like the "Nagamon" meme, this fan-created joke was featured in the anime.
