Nyashii?Hey, hey!That's what happened to the first Mikazuki.I guess you could think of it as retirement?Becoming a target ship is just...One might also end up as a breakwater or artificial reef.The first Nagatsuki, Kikuzuki, and Kisaragi became minesweepers, it seems.

Although there's loads more.And after that?The first Uzuki became a reef, apparently.What does that even mean?After being retired from service, the first Fumizuki was donated to Hakozaki Shrine in Fukuoka city.
This Fumizuki was of the Yamabiko-class, ships seized during Russo-Japanese War. What happened after she was donated is unclear.Well, if a use couldn't be found for a ship, it'd be labeled "Retired Destroyer No. X" and used as a target ship and such.
