Taihou-chan is a chibi version of the aircraft carrier Taihou in the mobile game and anime series Azur Lane. Unlike her more mature counterpart, Taihou-chan is depicted as a small, adorable, and playful character with exaggerated, cute features. She provides comic relief in the series and often finds herself in humorous situations, showcasing a more lighthearted and endearing side of the usually intense Taihou. Taihou-chan often interacts with both shipgirls and the Commander, adding charm and levity to the story.
