Megumi Uda, affectionately called Megu-chan, operates as a navigation specialist aboard the Harekaze, distinguished by her long wavy hair and a batten-shaped hairpin adorning her Yokosuka Girls’ Marine High School uniform. A scholar of contrasts, she demonstrates sharp proficiency in physics yet stumbles through Japanese language studies, embodying a blend of technical precision and linguistic hurdles. Her passions span capturing moments through photography and savoring the spices of Indian curry, merging artistic pursuit with culinary zest. The characters of her surname, "Uda," evoke imagery of sheltering eaves and expansive rice fields. A memorable onboard encounter saw her comically collide with crewmate Sakura Ise in a narrow passageway, leaving her momentarily buried in Sakura’s chest—an incident underscoring the lively, unpredictable dynamics of ship life.
