Gambier Bay (Kancolle) Wiki

Kantai Collection's personification of the Casablanca-class escort carrier USS Gambier Bay (CVE-73). Character design by Akira, voiced by Uchida Shuu.

She has blue eyes, blonde hair and large breasts. Her hair is worn in large fluffy twintails that reach down to her shoulders. She wears a hairband in Measure 32 camo with radar antennae to one side. Her clothing consists of a blue collared shirt with breast pockets, alongside a belt and shorts in Measure 32 camouflage. She also wears gloves with a white top and black underside, as well as white thighhighs. The one on her left leg bears her hull number, which is also found on her flight deck.

She has a rather timid personality, generally sounding very meek and self-doubting due to her history, not helped by the common nickname for CVEs being "Combustible, Vulnerable, Expendable" due to their poor overall protection. Because of this, she often has a wavy mouth and looks as if she's on the verge of crying. She is also extremely fearful of her Japanese counterparts, especially capital ships, constantly worrying that they may fire upon her at any moment. She's often depicted as a lost child due to her Sasebo outfit; see Lost Gambier Bay.

The historical Gambier Bay was sunk in the Battle of Samar during the Battle of Leyte Gulf after taking gunfire from Chikuma, with Yamato finishing her off. She was the only American aircraft carrier sunk by enemy surface gunfire during World War II, and also the only confirmed kill of the Yamato.

Her abyssal form is assumed to be the Escort Water Princess.
