"I'm Guam, 2nd ship of the Alaska class – still working on a nickname! I only made it for the tail end of the war, but I still dazzled everybody! Am I a super cruiser, a large cruiser, or a battlecruiser? Eh, they're all basically the same thing, so say whichever you want."

  • Historical In-Joke: Her introductory quote references the widespread historical arguments over what exact flavor of warship the Alaska class cruisers actually are. The actual answer is they were merely a scaled-up heavy cruiser design made possible by the lapse of the interwar naval treaties which limited individual ship tonnage.
  • Humongous Mecha: Guam manages to one-up Musashi's giant mechanical arms by giving her rig a head, torso, and waist section, ending up looking like someone tried to build the Zeong using parts from Armored Core.
  • Idol Singer: A very bizarre mix of this and a news reporter. She's clearly a performer and works together with San Diego and Lexington, but a lot of her lines are delivered like an anchorman breaking a big scoop. She also has a lighting & camera crew following her at all times, giving the impression she's ready to go live at any time for any reason.
  • Playboy Bunny: Wears a very snug bunny outfit along with a top hat and thigh-high boots to perform in for her "Stage-Setting Charmer" skin.
  • Support Party Member: An interesting case given that most large cruisers act as a Mighty Glacier for a fleet. Her stats are nothing to sneeze at and she's packing a pair of her own barrages, but Guam's kit primarily focuses on buffing her fleet's anti-air and providing a Damage-Increasing Debuff for a battleship to take advantage of.
  • Mighty Glacier: Despite having anti-air focus as her main kit, Guam still counts as one. Her HP is the highest among all large cruisers with medium armor, and her skills give her a barrier that absorbs damage every time she fires her main gun and two barrages. In addition, her signature gun, being the only Ultra Rare large cruiser gun, has the highest firepower and fastest reload time, thus activating her barrier more often, and the strongest against medium and heavy armor among all large cruiser guns.
  • Wingding Eyes: Her pupils have a star shape in them at all times, though various interactions can change them into either swirls or hearts.

Constellation

"I am Constellation, hull number CC-2. It was a little unfortunate that I couldn't sail forth with my sister ships. It became my routine to gaze at the stars while I awaited my own time to shine. Commander, how is the view of the night sky from this port?"

  • Artistic License – History: Constellation was one of the four Lexingtons axed under the Washington Treaty and thus never completed. Her shipgirl form is based on the World of Warships premium ship, which went through a hypothetical refit similar to those carried out on the U.S. Navy's older battleships to improve their anti-aircraft armament.
  • Mechanically Unusual Fighter: The only Eagle Union capital ship with (surface launched) torpedoes.
