### Game

Gal Guardians: Demon Purge

**Adult Kurona** is an older version of Kurona from the distant future, and is the main antagonist of *Gal Guardians: Demon Purge*. A demon possessing power far beyond any other, she is the true culprit behind the transformation of Sakurazaki Academy

## Abilities

Being hundreds, potentially even thousands, of years older than her present counterpart, Adult Kurona is a considerably more powerful demoness to the point it is said she has absolute power. Not only can she travel through time using a magical mirror as a conduit, but is unilaterally capable of merging dimensions, which she did by fusing Sakurazaki Academy with the Demon World, to create a towering demonic castle full of demonic minions and dastardly traps.

As a result of the fusion of dimensions, she was able to merge certain students with demons, creating Fiend enforcers to serve as gatekeepers of her stronghold. She could also use her own dark energy to create stronger copies of these monsters later on. She was also able to create an evil doppelganger of Houdai which could submerge underground and shoot dark Pheromone Shots.

In combat, Adult Kurona can summon copies of her younger self (similarly to how Kurona can summon her own mini copies), manipulate her own trident psychically, or even charge with it with dark power at great speeds. Adult Kurona could also manipulate the battlefield by moving platforms and expelling either black lightning from her trident or a massive beam of dark energy.

When unleashing all her power, Adult Kurona grows further in size while revealing large demonic wings with glowing patterns. In this form, her dark power is such that the Kamizono sisters were unable to move due to the sheer pressure of her power. Adult Kurona was effectively invincible at this point, were it not for the interference of Houdai (and the sisters' many friends in one of the endings), who used his own Pheromone Power to drastically weaken her, allowing the sisters a chance to fight back and defeat her.

Even then, she was strong enough to conjure black orbs of dark energy, alter the battlefield, summon her trident and use it to split the ground, creating a large shockwave on impact. Employs Fire and Ice magic simultaneously, and conjure a sword and swing it with such devastating force, the aftermath creates a rift of dark energy.

## Story

In a very distant future, Adult Kurona begin reminiscing about her much younger days. Having remembered the constant interference from the Kamizono sisters made her relive the many frustrations she endured back in the day. Being annoyed at her shameful history, Adult Kurona decided to take matters into her own hands and redeem her indignity by traveling through time in order to pull a "prank".

For that purpose she utilized the Dimensional Mirror, which served as a conduit between the future and the present, upon which the present Kurona stumbled upon. Not knowing what it was about, Kurona ended up meeting her future self. The two sharing much in common regarding the Kamizono sisters, teamed up to pull the biggest of all pranks, which Kurona was in desperate need of after being forced to repeat a year after her repeated failures.

Adult Kurona used her powers to merge dimensions causing an overlay between Sakurazaki Academy and the Demon World, transforming it into a massive demon castle full of demons and with the alumni trapped in its interior. Having seen what occurred, the sisters jumped into action to investigate the phenomenon. After the sisters encounter Kurona (who had assumed the guise of Amalgabat), she boasts about her newest prank, which the sisters found to be extreme and in poor taste. Kurona lashes back for being forced to repeat a year while revealing she possessed absolute power, providing a subtle hint regarding the true reason behind the fusion. The sisters were skeptical that Kurona alone could achieve a dimensional fusion, but decided to investigate while rescuing the alumni.

Upon climbing the Castle's Peak, the sisters find Kurona and are able to defeat her. It is in that moment that Adult Kurona reveals herself while admonishing her younger self for losing. The sisters are surprised to see that it was in fact Kurona from the future who had plotted everything. Adult Kurona then exposes the still latent feelings of humiliation that motivated her to perform her latest "prank". The sisters could only contemplate the absurdity of her grudge which caused her to go as far as travel through time. Realizing they were as annoying as she remembered them, Adult Kurona merely mocked and them sent them back to the base of the castle, forcing the sisters to once more climb the stronghold.

It would during this second adventure that the sisters would realize that Adult Kurona had trapped Houdai in the castle itself, with Houdai becoming nothing more than a pillar of the castle. This, however, gave the sisters an opportunity as Houdai could exert influence in the castle, allowing the sisters easier access to the castle's many floors and rooms. Upon Houdai's request, the sisters were to find five different items that could boost Houdai's libido to increase his Pheromone Power, which would allow Houdai to find the mirror and allow the sisters confront Adult Kurona. Upon their travels, they would also stumble upon strange vortexes which held the alumni's undies, which were separated from them during the dimensional merge. It is heavily implied to be an intentional part of Kurona or Adult Kurona's prank.

Upon boosting Houdai's Pheromone Power, he is able to locate the mirror in a room on the Castle's Peak. Houdai subsequently teleports the sisters so they can reach the mirror. As the sisters find the mirror, they are intercepted by present Kurona who reveals the mirror is perverted in nature, and only allows beauties such as the Eternal Seductress (her future self's nickname). Although Kurona tries to stop the sisters she is soon defeated. Shinobu threatens Kurona into telling them of any additional way to use the mirror, and Kurona is forced to confess that the mirror has a fetish for bunny girls, leaving the sisters distraught. What happens next depends on the option chosen. In the first option, Shinobu can shoot the mirror and threaten it to comply with letting them pass to the future, which it ultimately does. In the second option, the sisters are aided by Chiru, who had completed her dimensional device, allowing the sisters to travel to the future. In the third option, Risu appears and delivers bunny outfits from Angel Ring Company, allowing the sisters to dress to appease the mirror.

Regardless, the sisters are able to travel to the interdimensional rift between timelines, where they find Adult Kurona on her throne, having her foot licked by what appears to be Houdai, but is ultimately revealed to be a fake. Disgusted by this humiliating sight, the sisters engage the fake Houdai in combat and defeat him. Adult Kurona was annoyed the spectacle was cut short, but delighted herself on taking her desired revenge with her own hands. Adult Kurona turns her throne into her signature Demon Spear and the two sides battle. Although the sisters seemed to be winning, Adult Kurona reveals she has not used all her power. Afterwards she unleashes it, growing in size and exerting so much pressure the sisters feel their hope crushed. Boasting about her power, Adult Kurona feels further ashamed of herself for having lost so many times to the sisters, readying to punish them. The sisters, however, still decide to persist in the face of adversity; what happens next depends of the option chosen.

The normal ending occurs if the first option is chosen. Houdai, as part of the castle, uses the dimensional mirror as a conduit to use his Pheromone Power to cast a Doki Doki Field. Although this affects and weakens Adult Kurona, it doesn't stop her. While she was quickly able to dispel the Field, it allows the sisters a chance at defeating the demoness. Ultimately the sisters triumph much to the disbelief of Adult Kurona, having suffered another defeat against her offenders. As the timelines begin to split, she is pulled back into the future, while uttering her signature "Hell" catchphrase. With Adult Kurona defeated, the dimensions return back to normal, except the Demon Academy and Sakurazaki Academy ended up switching places. As a result, the sisters and the students along with their school are now stranded in the Demon World. Kurona delights herself on having performed a successful prank, which greatly annoys Shinobu.

The true ending occurs if the second option is chosen (and if the dimensional device was used as well), Houdai uses his powers to cast the Doki Doki Field. This allows Chiru, Nanako, Akira, Kaname, Aoi, and Risu to enter via the Dimensional Transfer Device, attacking Adult Kurona and weakening her. The sisters, with the support of their allies, defeat Adult Kurona, who is in disbelief that the sisters could beat her despite the difference in power. The sisters retort that while she was objectively stronger than the two of them, she failed to account for her friends which caused her defeat. Adult Kurona is much to her dismay pulled back to her own timeline, having relived another loss at the hand of the sisters. The dimensions now fully normalized, a week passes by, and everything is peaceful. Risu alerts the sisters that present Kurona is plotting something again and the sisters give chase.

An alternate ending occurs if the third option is selected when facing Adult Kurona. This causes Houdai to use his Pheromone Power to send all the love from the many students the sisters rescued, affecting Adult Kurona. Houdai tells the sisters to use the love power bestowed on them to shoot Pheromone Shots on Adult Kurona's "sensitive spots". The sisters are befuddled at the sudden development, while Adult Kurona is in visible distress at the idea of being shot. The sisters are forced to search for the spots while deflecting Adult Kurona's dark shots, and tickling her to loosen her guard. Eventually she's overcome by the love power, causing her defeat. Adult Kurona was thus reminded that her foes always ended up creating entirely ridiculous situations on a regular basis. The sisters grew annoyed at this and called her back for her absurd means of revenge. As the dimensions split, Adult Kurona is pulled back into the future. As the dimensions return to normal, the sisters find themselves the target of affection of the many students they saved as a result of the excessive Pheromone Power, leaving Houdai sulking that the sisters "swung that way", while the sisters ask for help while being overwhelmed by love confessions.

## Boss Fight

*Due to not having a description on the official website, the following attack names are conjecture:*

### First Phase

     Spear Charge | Adult Kurona charges horizontally with her spear.

### Second Phase

If the player chooses the True Ending version of the fight, each attack is easier to avoid. The Normal Ending version is fought in the Boss Rush mode.

         Soul Bomb | At around 1/2 or 1/3 of her remaining health, Adult Kurona will begin using this attack. Evil souls gather into an orb of darkness, then slam down into the ground, spreading out tendrils on the entire platform in both directions. This attack can be countered by using Shinobu's Oonusa before it hits the ground, or dodged by using Maya's Umbrella to hover over the pits on either side.

### Alternate Phase

This alternate phase is only available once the player has rescued every NPC in the game. If the player selects "Believe in the power of love" after the first phase, the second phase is replaced with using Doki Doki Mode on Adult Kurona. While it does bear similarities to its *Double Peace* counterpart, there are a few notable differences. Weak spots are not indicated by moving over them, and instead, the player must shoot the spots to determine if they're vulnerable. Shots can be fired rapidly, or charged for more power. The sensitive spots can be her face, horns, bust, and legs. If Adult Kurona is blocking, the player must tickle her with a feather to break her guard. However, tickle her excessively, and she'll retaliate with an unavoidable attack. Additionally, she can retaliate with dark magic attacks, which must be destroyed before it impacts the screen to avoid damage. The fight ends once the meter on the bottom is completely filled.

## Trivia

* Her nickname, the Eternal Seductress, is the first time that the name of Kurona's future reputation has been officially localized. Its prior mentions in Kurona's *Double Peace* profile and *Azure Striker Gunvolt 2's* secret ending were exclusive to the Japanese versions of those games as 傾国の誘惑者 (*Keikoku no Yuuwakusha*).
* Her doppelganger attack during her first phase bears similarities to Copen's Doppler Destroyer attack in *Azure Striker Gunvolt 2*. Both attacks summon four doppelgangers that home in on the player's position, then conclude with a vertical slam from the user.
* Adult Kurona has a ring on each ring finger, both of which have bells seeming to resemble those inherited from the Kamizono family.
