## Appearance

**Kurogao**

Kurogao is an older man with visible wrinkles and white hair with a side parting. His eyes have inverted colours, with black sclera's and white iris'. He was seen wearing a black shirt with popped collars.

## Personality

Kurogao has a cold personality, after being a spy for so long he lacks care about morality. He knew that it's not his place to preach right or wrong and carried out his orders without care. It was only until Yuri was killed when he took matters into his own hands, as an act of revenge. Her death led him to be very cynical and dark, after his suffering he felt like there is nothing he could do to bring joy back into his life and constantly worked to avenge his daughter.

When he wasn't working Kurogao was a fun person when around his daughter. He'd dress up in sparkling fluffy clothes to celebrate with her, he'd try to bond with her with modern music despite not knowing any and took pride in taking care of her. Despite not being around her often, Yuri still loved and admired him.

After Yuri's death, Kurogao would keep the fun and goofy personality he has with her and used that for his identity of Kuroyuri. Kuroyuri's personality was even more absurd, with constant dancing and theatrics, often going over the top with his speeches.

## History

Kurogao used to be a legendary spy that worked with politicians, taking out certain people when needed. He had a wife and daughter and his wife died several years after her birth.

6 years before the current story, after a month of being away from home, he arrived in time for his daughter Yuri's birthday. He came dressed up in a ridiculous costume to celebrate with her. On that day they were blown up by a bomb hidden as a birthday present and only he survived. Knowing that the only people who knew his personal information would be the people he worked with, he realised that he was being betrayed by them. Kurogao now wanted to take revenge on them and faked his death and went into hiding. He re-emerged as "Kuroyuri", sporting the outfit he wore for his daughter. Since his speciality as a spy was political manoeuvring he grew his own political party and lured in the politician he worked with in order to kill them. At some point during this time, he had hired the Red, Blue, Yellow Triplets to work for him.

## Plot

The Hinagiku were investigating Yoshimasa Kuroyuri due to footage showing a man dressed in a sparking fluffy outfit buying a bomb. Since he's a politician, he'd be familiar with The Hinagiku members, so they hired Taiyo Asano to help them with the mission. He infuriated them under the guise of "Yoko Asada", as they were looking for a female office clerk to hire.

During Asada's induction, Kuroyuri was attacked by a man claiming that he went bankrupt due to his policies. After being stabbed, he offered to help his attacker find justice and forgave him for the injury. When he was taken to an ambulance, it was revealed that the whole thing was staged and the attacker was Red in disguise. The act was in order to gain the public's support and approval of him as he aims to rule the country. Other tricks he used involved faking bribes and poisoning other politicians, Asada was not able to pick up his plans for a while due to him and the triplets communicating through morse code via their dances.

He finally figured it out as Kuroyuri planned to place a bomb at the International Environmental Conference, to kill the politicians that haven't given in to him. When he detonated the bomb, it blew up in an outside fountain due to Asada moving it, however, that lead to him figuring out that Asada is actually Taiyo and shot him after revealing he has a second bomb and he blew up the building. The people were saved by Fluff Fluff, placed by Taiyo and he managed to survive the gunshot. Taiyo shot Yae at him, but the triplets blocked the attack. Sui Aoi then arrived to disarm them all and the Triplets fled, leading to Kuroyuri being stripped and captured.

Taiyo took care of Kuroyuri's transferal and Kuroyuri told him that he knows of his family's deaths and told him that it wasn't an accident. Sui then informed Taiyo that Kuroyuri had captured the Deputy Prime Minister Shirosagi and Kuroyuri broke out of his restraints and blew up the transportation truck to escape. He then fled to where Shirosagi was held and broadcasted it as he revealed his identity as Kurogao. He tried to have Shirosagi confess to his crimes in order to kill his public image, he refused to answer him and Kurogao was ready to kill him until Taiyo arrived and stopped the broadcast.

Kurogao was not afraid of Taiyo, due to him knowing that he can't shoot with Shirosagi in the crossfire. Taiyo attempted to tackle him at close range, but he was easily tackled and tied up by his own tool. Kurogao told Taiyo how he uses information for everything, even fighting and revealed his past. He then tried to shoot Shirosagi again, but Taiyo got up to stop him as the Triplets arrived to hold him off. Kurogao after empathising with Taiyo and his family, tells him that if he backs off he'll reveal what he knows about his family. Taiyo refuses, saying that he'd rather not have anyone else die. Sui arrives and separates the Triplets from Kurogao, taking them to the floor below.

Taiyo and Kurogao begin to fight and Kurogao kept identifying all of Taiyo's weapons and techniques due to his vast amount of info. He told Taiyo that after all the pain and suffering you go through can never be changed, but Taiyo refutes that. Taiyo then managed to take hold of Kurogao using an imitation of the Hinagiku technique - Stepping on Flowers, due to Kurogao being overconfident with the information he has. Taiyo manages to disarm him and pin him to the ground. Kurogao gives up and out of respect and is about to tell him all he knows about his family but gets shot in the neck from out of nowhere. He tells Taiyo how this bound to happen to him and commends him for refusing to give up after all he's been through and tells him to keep moving forward. He hands Taiyo a note before dying, the note leads to the grave of his daughter on the shore where he hid a laser recording of information about the Asano Family's deaths.
