==Summary==
Kurome Ankokuboshi (暗黒星くろめ, Ankokuboshi Kurome) is the original form of Uzume Tennouboshi. She acts as the primary antagonist of Megadimension Neptunia VII.
Once a Guardian Goddess of Planeptune, Uzume sealed herself away for fear she could not control her powers. However, inside the seal, she grew to hate Gamindustri, the world she once called home. As a result, her source of energy became Negative Energy over Share Energy, forcing her to split into two parts: Kurome and Uzume Tennouboshi.
During the time she was sealed, she created two dimensions as a result of her dreams. Heart Dimension and Zero Dimension, with Heart Dimension being based on her dream of a destroyed and hellish Gamindustri, and Zero Dimension based on her dream of Gamindustri in the process of being destroyed. In order to try and break her seal, Kurome created the Dark Goddesses. However, her good-aligned self began to fight back against the Dark Goddesses, prompting her to come up with the plan of fusing the Heart and Hyper Dimensions.
Kurome has vowed to enact revenge on the people of Gamindustri, believing that she was created just to be thrown away and treated horribly. She is an extreme sociopath and sadist, having stated that watching the people of Gamindustri suffer is a treat to her, that Gamindustri looks so much more pleasant when it's falling into despair, and that her toying with the Gold Third and misleading them so much was part of her wanting to be entertained by the chaos and depression.
Kurome is the personification of the European version of the Sega Dreamcast.

</tabber>
Attack Potency: Low Multiverse level (Was fusing the Heart Dimension and Hyper Dimension by moving one dimension closer to the other. This process was sped up by using only a fraction of Rei's powers, which had already weakened from the previous game. Had Kurome not been stopped, the two dimensions would have inevitably fused, and the Bad Ending of VII shows this to be the caseMegadimension Neptunia VII - Bad Ending. Created the Dark Goddesses from her Negative Energy, which Kurome implies that it takes very little Negative Energy to do, and thus she would be vastly superior to them), higher with Rei's powers, possibly Complex Multiverse level | Low Multiverse level (After fusing with the Dark Goddesses, she held the powers of the Goddesses, Rei Kiseijou, and her own Negative Energy, creating a combined power that made the Next Form users become uncertain of their victory, with Uzume noting that they were becoming "weak-kneed". Dark Orange stated that a Sharing Field would not be able to contain her power, prompting Uzume to drain the Heart Dimension's Share Crystal of most of its Share Energy to weaken her first, and then create the Sharing FieldVII - Heart Dimension Neptunia H: Trilogy Finale: Into Legend - Regrouping), lower when weakened (Sharing Fields weaken the enemy that is trapped in them), possibly Complex Multiverse level, can ignore durability with Space-Time Manipulation and Existence Erasure
Speed: FTL combat speed (Is the creator of the Dark Goddesses, and thus would make her faster and superior to them, and she is also faster than the Goddesses. Even without any Negative Energy, she was still able to keep up with Uzume) | FTL combat speed (Much faster than her Human Form), lower when weakened (Sharing Fields weaken the enemy trapped inside of it)
Lifting Strength: Class 25 (As the counterpart of Uzume Tennouboshi, she should be equal to her, if not stronger), higher with Rei's powers, likely far higher | At least Class M (Fused with the Dark Goddesses, including Dark Purple, who can freely move around its wings with little effort which weigh this much)
Striking Strength: Low Multiverse level, higher with Rei's powers, possibly Complex Multiverse level | Low Multiverse level, lower when weakened, possibly Complex Multiverse level
Durability: Low Multiverse level (Much more powerful than the Dark Goddesses due to possessing more Negative Energy), higher with Rei's powers, possibly Complex Multiverse level | Low Multiverse level (Far stronger than her Human Form; withstood several hits from many powerful characters - 16 in total - such as Purple Heart, White Heart, and Orange Heart), possibly Complex Multiverse level
Stamina: Unknown | Unknown
Range: Extended Melee Range normally, Dozens of Kilometers to Hundreds of Milometers with her Megaphone and Sound Manipulation, Universal+ with Negative Energy, Interdimensional with Rei's powers and Space-Time Manipulation, possibly Complex Multiversal | Hundreds of Meters with standard attacks, Universal+ with Negative Energy, Interdimensional with Rei's powers and Space-Time Manipulation, possibly Complex Multiversal
Standard Equipment: Megaphone | Axe and sword appendages
Intelligence: Genius (Is the mastermind behind many of the events of Megadimension Neptunia VII. Kurome has been shown to be a very skilled manipulator, being able to manipulate multiple parties such as the Gold Third, AffimaX, the Ultra Dimension Neptune, and even the Goddesses in order to achieve her goals. She is also shown to be skillful in planning far in advance, such as having Uzume gather Share Energy over a long period of time in order to increase her own strength or luring the Goddesses into the dimensional hole she created in order to capture them. Kurome was able to severely emotionally manipulate K-Sha, essentially turning her into a complete yandere per Uni's words, by constantly mentally toying with K-Sha, compelling her to try and get rid of Uni when she has the chance. She further accelerated this compulsion by masquerading as Noire, luring K-Sha into a false sense of security and love before spending her time with Uni instead of K-Sha, creating more emotional instability for K-Sha, and in Kurome's own words, "sowing the seed", culminating in K-Sha attempting to kill Uni due to the former's possessive and obsessive demeanor. She is also shown to be knowledgeable on dimensional coordinates due to her being the only one who knows that if two dimensions lay over the same dimensional coordinates, then they fuse)
Weaknesses: If her true self dies, so does she. Her powers can be cancelled out with enough Share Energy. In her Dark Orange form, she is weak to large amounts of Share Energy, and can be severely weakened by a Sharing Field.
