* SherlockScan: Her advanced radar and CIC suite lets her do this in combat. And even out of combat- [[MundaneUtility she claims that it allows her to determine that Shinano's bust size is larger than that of her younger sister Musashi.]]

!!Kongou

!!Kirishima

!!Nagato
* CutenessProximity: She has a hamster in her room that she plays with to burn off the cuteness. That way she can focus into TheStoic when she's in battle.
* TheStoic: Her ability to maintain a cool, professional demeanor in almost any situation is uncanny.

!!Mutsu
* TheTease: ''constantly'' teases her Admiral. She even pops up a few times in the comments to harass Jersey with her tiny skirt.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: Only shows up sporadically in ''Belated Battleships'' proper, but she has a much larger role in the ''A Certain Lady'' side-story.

!!Musashi
* AwesomeEgo: She's loud, bombastic, and incredibly proud of her own battle prowess. But she does carry the largest naval rifles ever built, and she's got the armor to laugh off torpedo strikes that would cripple even Jersey.
* BadassBoast: Most of her vocabulary, especially when facing down Abyssals, consists of booming declarations that she ''CANNOT SINK'', and darring her enemies to try regardless.
* BoisterousBruiser: She's one of the most powerful battleships ever built, she ''loves'' to fight, and she likes to make sure everyone knows it.
* Catch22Dilemma: The Japanese Navy can't send her out on missions because losing her would mean a massive blow to Japanese morale. And they can't risk sending her out because her anti-air defenses are terrible. But they can't upgrade her anti-air defenses unless she's had combat missions, which would risk sinking her.
* {{Foil}}: She's almost the mirror image of Jersey, even though neither battleship likes the other very much.
* GagBoobs: Much to Jersey's immense frustration and confusion.
* NoIndoorVoice: She speaks most of her lines at ''THUNDEROUSLY LOUD VOLUME.''

!!Akagi
* BigEater: She's well known as a gluttonous fiend.
** Deconstructed: Her appetite is vast because she ''needs'' to gorge herself just to replenish her planes. But she restricts herself to just plain rice, with maybe a few sweets as a reward for exceptional performance, because she doesn't want to take food out of her nation's mouth.

!!Kaga
* [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Proud Warrior Race Carrier]]: Kaga's ''very'' proud of her service with the ''Kido Butai.'' But she's not inflexible. She understands why the IJN lost the last war, and she's determined to hone her skills--and the skills of the other carriers--to make sure it never happens again.
* TheStoic: She's icy cool under all circumsances. Often the only warning that she's mad is a sudden hot flash as her boilers rev up to full operational pressure.
!!Ryuujou
!!Shinano
* AwesomeYetImpractical: She's a carrier that was built on a Yamato-class hull, and is (in theory) the most heavily armored carrier around. Downside is that she only carries 47 planes (Support Carrier, not Fleet Carrier), yet she eats more food in one sitting than Akagi and Kaga ''combined''.
* BigEater: To a degree that stuns Akagi. In fact, she eats so much, that Goto is considering sending her off to the United States, simply so her appetite doesn't cause mass starvation in Japan.
* NewMeat: Her rebuild as a Support Carrier wasn't complete when she was sunk during WWII, and she didn't even have her assigned air complement when she was summoned.

!!Tenryuu
* InSeriesNickname: Her own special variant of 'momboat', she is dubbed '''chunni''momboat' by Major Solette.
* MamaBear: She's an older cruiser, but you do ''not'' mess with any of her beloved destroyers.

!!Sendai
* InSeriesNickname: Yasen-Baka is more likely to garner recognition than Sendai's actual name.
!!Naka
* GamerChick: Her gaming computer is astonishingly powerful, and she does regular livestreams.
* IdolSinger: Downplayed. She's still got her singer gimick, but it shows up more as general PR-savvyness than actual singing.
!!Jintsuu

!!Atago
* ShipperOnDeck: She's determined to get Alaska a boy, even when the bumbling large cruiser continually fumbles in her attemps.
!!Maya
* SirSwearsAlot: Constant exposure to American military personnel has left Maya with a very ''colorful'' vocabulary.

* TheMedic: In charge of making sure the battleships are in tip-top shape mentally and physically. He also ends up [[spoiler: saving Heermann's life]].
** Don't ever call him "[[ImADoctorNotAPlaceholder Doctor]]". He's a [[InsistentTerminology Nurse Practitioner]] and damn proud of it.
** The shipgirls, however, always call him "Doc" or "Docboat."

* NewMeat: Her rebuild as a Support Carrier wasn't complete when she was sunk during WWII, and she didn't even have her assigned planes when she was summoned.

** It's implied she wasn't always like this. All the girls who haven't seen her since the war call call her "[[Fanfic/PacificWorldWarIIUsNavyShipgirls Beauty Queen."]]
