Based on Shinano's personality in Azur Lane, she is likely an INFJ personality type. INFJ's are known for their insightful and intuitive nature, as well as their strong convictions and desire to help others. Shinano is often portrayed as a reserved and stoic character, but also as someone who cares deeply for her fellow ship girls and their well-being. She is constantly seeking to understand and empathize with the people around her, and often takes on the responsibility of being a mediator and peacemaker in difficult situations.

Additionally, a key characteristic of INFJ's is their tendency towards perfectionism, which is evident in the way that Shinano constantly pushes herself to improve and evolve her abilities as a ship girl. She is highly intelligent and strategic, but also possesses a strong sense of intuition and creativity, making her a valuable asset in battle.

Overall, Shinano's INFJ personality type allows her to be a perceptive and empathetic leader, while also giving her the drive and tenacity to achieve her goals and make a positive impact on the world around her.

In-game, Shinano is portrayed with very long white hair with fox features (ears and tail), and purple eyes. Her outfit is a traditional blue-white kimono with a white skirt and white thighhighs.

Her rigging consists of her real-life flight deck with several 25 mm triple AA mounts and 12 cm 28-tube rocket launchers on each side, while she has three katana on a hull accessory to her back. She also has moon phases floating around her as a reference to her in-lore ability to see across multiple timelines and the fact that she was historically sunk at night/early morning

The historical Shinano was laid down May 4, 1940. She was originally planned to be the third Yamato-class battleship, but after the loss of the aircraft carriers Akagi, Kaga, Hiryuu, and Souryuu after the Battle of Midway she was converted into a supercarrier as her hull was partially incomplete.

In theory, Shinano was capable of fielding the largest airwing of any aircraft carrier constructed by the end of World War II and was kept secret as she was meant to be a strategic surprise. However, due to the advanced state of her construction as a battleship before conversion, Shinano has a disproportionally small organic air group size of 47 aircraft. Due to this, the IJN planned to use Shinano as a support carrier to tend the other fleet carrier's air wings, capable of stowing around 120 aircraft maximum.

Shinano was launched on October 8, 1944 (originally planned for May 1945, but her construction was expedited due to the loss of Shoukaku and Taihou in the Battle of the Philippine Sea, and commissioned November 19, 1944. Shinano was dispatched from Yokosuka to Kure with an inexperienced crew to finish her fitting out and embark her aircraft, but she was sunk en-route by USS Archerfish on November 29, 1944. Shinano was the largest warship ever sunk by a submarine.
