==Profile==
===Personality===
Kurumazaki is shy and has trouble speaking his mind. He is creative with robot designs and shows great fascination in them.
==Background==
Kuzumazaki was a member of the student committee for the school festival, but because of Itokura's autocratic attitude in the club, he chafed with her and would not listen to her which led to the School Festival in Seiryo being a complete disaster. 
In the Robotics Club, Okitegawa was very resistant to others' ideas, which resulted in many of Kurumazaki's designs being rejected. He placed the rejects on his website for the public to see, feeling confident in their design and hoping someone else would see their value. Shortly after lunching his website, he was contacted by an individual calling themself "the Professor," who complimented his designs and introduced him to the Neo Keihin Gang, saying they would appreciate their value.
When he came into contact with them, he would help their engineers build his robots in an old buuilding, but eventually, after hearing about a thief-bot terrorizing Isezaki Ijincho, he had realized he was being taken advantage of. When he tried to stand up to them, he was told he is now an accomplice due to helping them.
==Involvement==
===Lost Judgment: 2021===
Kurumazaki is working on blueprints when Takayuki Yagami arrives as an outside counsellor. Yagami refers to him whenever he needs parts built for customizing the robots. Kurumazaki suggests making cool weapons during a strategy meeting, which is put in a backlog due to it being out of their current reach. He stays quiet and is seemingly unaffected by the increased workload as a result of needing to develop two machines to prepare for the final round of the RE Robo Rally, but in reality, is excited by a new design that he had conceived after talking with Dento Sakura.
While out to eat ramen, he assures Dento Sakura that the club members are friends after hearing him say that he never ate with friends in middle school. Okitegawa notices Kurumazaki's design and reprimands him, causing Kurumazaki to lose his temper and storm off. Kurumazaki tells Yagami he is considering leaving the Robotics Club due to his lack of ability to hold firm to his ideas. He resigns from the club and states he had enough of Okitegawa.
Yagami tells him he wants to talk, and when he meets him, Okitegawa apologizes to him and, to his surprise, asks for his idea. Kurumazaki states that to be prepared for both potential strategies their opponent would use, he was developing a robot with two modes that would be prepared for both, which is allowed by way of a loophole in the tournament rules. Kurumazaki accepts Okitegawa's apology and pleas to return to the club, and withdraws his resignation.
After Okitegawa begs Akuta to not disband the Robotics Club, he allows the members to end the day early. Yagami requests Kurumazaki meet him. There, Amasawa and Yagami ask him about the blueprints in the locked cabinet, and he confesses to giving the design to the Neo Keihin Gang and he was forced to continue working for them. He then gives Yagami the location of the hideout, and, unable to hide the truth, informs his clubmates about the thief-bot. Ashamed of his robot being used for crime, he requests he be the one to dismantle it to store it until the investigation is complete. His robot earns Seiryo the victory, and they celebrate.
Kurumazaki is one of many students called by Yagami to help find Itokura. Suou notes that most former members of the cultural festival committee are present save for the one they abandoned, and Kurumazaki admits he never mustered the courage to apologize to her. He and Okitegawa gather the other Robotics Club members to find her, and reassemble Kurumazaki's thief-bot to help. It is able to disarm Matsuhisa Koga, and he is pleased to see his robot used for good. Kurumazaki returns to campus and apologizes to Itokura for abandoning her back in summer.
