Jun'you

Jun'yō (隼鷹 jun'yō?, meaning "peregrine falcon") was a Hiyō-class aircraft carrier of the Imperial Japanese Navy. She was laid down at Nagasaki as the passenger liner Kashiwara Maru, but was purchased by the Japanese Navy in 1941 and converted to an aircraft carrier. Completed in May 1942, the ship participated in the Aleutian Islands Campaign the following month and in several battles during the Guadalcanal Campaign in late 1942. Her aircraft were disembarked several times and used from land bases in a number of battles in the Southwest Pacific. Jun'yō was torpedoed in November 1943 and spent three months under repair. She was damaged by several bombs during the Battle of the Philippine Sea in mid-1944, but was quickly repaired. Lacking aircraft, she was used as a transport in late 1944 and was torpedoed in December. Jun'yō was under repair until March 1945 when the repairs were deemed uneconomical. She was then effectively hulked for the rest of the war. The ship was deemed not worth the cost to repair by the Americans after the surrender of Japan in September and she was broken up in 1946–47.
==Appearance==
The Hiyou-class wears a white blouse with red trimmings over a red dress shirt for the top, reminiscing their past as army-subsidized luxury passenger ships, and a magatama. The bottom is a wide red hakama trimmed to calf-length. They wear platform shoes. For their flight decks, they both use scrolls, the airplanes are shikigami, controlling them as onmyouji.
For her second remodel, she now wears a white and green vest under her blouse, a green sash as well as a new green paint job for her ship parts and platforms. Her hakama is clearly revealed to be trousers (it was partially occluded by her flight deck in her original art). She now uses two scrolls, her actual flight deck and a smaller one, appearing to be her hangar, which can be held in a compartment in her "hull". Both emits purple flames from the sides. Like Ryuujou, she has three magatama but unlike her, the two extra magatama are hanging from earrings instead of being hung under her collar. She also reveals that she can change the text on her flames in her damaged portrait where she uses the character "Forbidden" to self-censor her exposed bra and underwear. The level where she can be remodeled as such is Level 80, joint-highest with Haruna.
Jun'you herself has a distinctive hairdo with long feathered spiked purple hair.
==Personality==
Considered to be the Hard Drinking Party Girl of the game. Her catchphrase is "Hyahaaah!"
==Trivia==

*Originally a passenger liner called Kashiwara Maru (橿原丸). The navy bought and coverted her into a carrier.
