Due to an incident during her launching ceremony in 1937, in which the wooden platforms that were supporting her hull collapsed under her own weight, and which killed one spectator and injured 20 others, she has gained the nickname "the ship that launched herself". This event is referenced in several of her voicelines expressing that she doesn't like to be called "heavy" and that her friends and foes alike often makes fun out of her "lumbering" body. This event is frequently parodied by the Azur Lane fanbase, often depicting her (or her huge breasts) to be immensely heavy and a cause of trouble to her or others. Alternatively, others have depicted her as a plump woman.
