ARP Ashigara — Japanese special premium Tier VII cruiser.
A Fleet of Fog heavy cruiser modeled after the Imperial Japanese Navy's 3rd Myōkō-class cruiser, Ashigara. She is equipped with a specialized harpoon cannon, replacing the Super-Graviton Cannon unit. Her Mental Model—Ashigara—has a warlike personality and does not think matters over carefully. Ashigara acts as one of the Secretaries in the Student Council of the Fog along with Haguro. This warship has been modeled after Ashigara as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA- Cadenza."

Player Opinion
Performance
Ashigara is a powerful being in Arpeggio of Blue Steel manga and its Ars Nova anime adaptation, with enormous speed, numerous matter annihilating weapons, and a protective field that is impenetrable to any weapon developed by humankind. However, so the game does not turn into "World of ARP Ships" with a few insignificant human targets cowering in the background, the developers have declined to provide her with her true complement of abilities and weaponry. ARP Ashigara performs exactly like the standard Myoko in the game (but without the ability to equip camouflage), and that means that she shares the same play style as regular Myoko. You can refer to the article on Myoko for her performance appraisal.
Pros:
- All the pros of the standard Myoko
- Does not take up port slots
- No modules to research as she is fully upgraded
- Visible to other players who have enabled Yokosuka port
- Comes with free Captain's Skills Points (depending on the event)
- Skills can be customized for her, as captain is specific to this ship
- Special announcer (voiced by her voice actor from the Ars Nova series!)
Cons:
- All the cons of the standard Myoko
- Cannot mount functional camouflage
- Captain cannot be transferred to ships of other nations
- Voice notifications are in Japanese
- Does not come with overwhelming firepower, speed, submergence, Klein field, or super-graviton cannons of Ashigara in Ars Nova
Research
ARP Ashigara comes fully upgraded, with the same upgrade slots found on Myoko and a captain with free Captain's Skills points, the number of which may vary with event and region.
For her Captain's Skills, it is recommended that she has Expert Marksman to improve her slow turret rotation and Concealment Expert for tactical flexibility.
