Hibiki (響)

A calm and stoic Russophile who tends to include Russian words in her speech. As Верный (Veriny), she speaks more Russian. Typically characterized by her vacant attitude and expression.

She was the only one of the Akatsuki-class destroyers to survive the war, and was transferred to the USSR as a war prize, where she received her new name, Verniy.

However, as revealed in the 4-koma, Hibiki vocabulary in Russian is noted to be rather limited, as Fubuki tries to hold a conversation with her in Russian, only for Verniy to panic and say that it would be better for them to converse in Japanese instead.
