Akeno Misaki (岬 明乃 Misaki Akeno), nicknamed Mike (only used by Moeka China and Susan Reyes ), is the main protagonist of High School Fleet. She is the commanding officer of Harekaze and Okikaze which was eventually renamed Harekaze.

AppearanceAkeno has brown shoulder-length hair that she often keeps tied as two pigtails, one on each side of her head. The only time where she is seen letting her hair loose is when showering. She has blue eyes and light skin.

She wears the standard Yokosuka Girls' Marine High School uniform. Occasionally, particularly in situations that involve taking command of the Harekaze, Akeno dons a captain's hat.

Personality & TraitsAkeno is a forward-looking, big-hearted girl, brimming with luck. As captain of the Harekaze, she cares deeply for her crew members like "a father to the family." She cares for them so much that, when danger seems too great, she hesitates to put them in harm's way. She also refused to join Moeka to board the Musashi after hearing that her class might be dissolved as she deems it as abandoning her "family" despite her close relationship with Moeka.

Despite her low self-esteem, she manages to make snap decisions effectively whilst under pressure for most occasions. Although her strategies have often placed the Harekaze under much stress, they have helped keep the crew safe while allowing them to perform their duties.

Akeno can also remember names on the fly; she even gave every member of her crew their own nickname.

HistoryPrologueApproximately nine years ago, at some point in her childhood, Akeno was involved in an unfortunate cruise ship sinking incident; though she was rescued by the Blue Mermaids, the incident claimed the lives of her parents. She still feels guilty for the loss of her parents due to not jumping off the ship earlier as her parents have instructed her to do so. Due to this tragedy, Akeno was inspired to join the Blue Mermaids.

Following the tragedy, Moeka China, Akeno's childhood friend, shared with her the phrase "comrades at sea are like family", a belief that Akeno came to follow strongly, and the two friends made a promise to become Blue Mermaids together.

Baptism of FireAkeno barely passed the entrance exam at Yokosuka Girls' Marine High School, earning her command of the destroyer Harekaze. She set off with her fellow neophytes, including Moeka aboard the Musashi, only for the ship to be separated due to engine failure and navigation error.

As soon as the ship came under fire from the infected Sarushima, much to the Harekaze crew's disbelief, Akeno decided to disable the Sarushima with a dummy torpedo. The ensuing damage to the Sarushima allowed the Harekaze to get away, only for the latter to be branded as mutineers in the process.

A Father to the CrewSoon, the Harekaze found itself slugging it out with ships several times her size, including the Admiral Graf Spee, Musashi, and Hiei. However, with cool efficiency, Akeno and her uncanny leadership helped the Harekaze escape certain doom, earning the respect of most of her classmates. Upholding the saying: "Comrades at sea are all family," she even put herself in danger to save those at sea like Wilhelmina Friedeburg, deputy-captain of the Admiral Graf Spee who was attacked by her own crew when trying to escape.

Such attitude, however, didn't sit well with a few at first, especially deputy-captain Mashiro, who believed that a captain must prioritize the safety of her own crew. Akeno's need to save her friend Moeka put the Harekaze in peril, which she regretted later. At times, however, such actions saved the lives of Ritsuko and Kayako when they were caught in an explosion while minesweeping.

Just One More FightWhen the Musashi threatened to enter the Uraga Channel, Akeno suddenly lost heart and refused to give orders. She confessed to Mashiro that the only reason the Harekaze was able to win its battles is that things went their way, owing to sheer luck. Upon the encouragement of her classmates, however, she found the strength for one more fight. Much to her relief, the Harekaze managed to save the Musashi, allowing Akeno to reunite with her friend Moeka.

Later, Akeno, along with her crew, salutes the Harekaze as it sinks to honor the ship.
