Insecure and Self-Conscious: Because a childhood crush ended in rejection and physical mutation, Kuroe developed severe trust and body-image issues. She believes she is gloomy and undesirable, often seeking comfort by listening to heavy metal music and painting monochrome landscapes.

Guarded Loner: She actively avoids interaction with her peers, preferring quiet isolation. Her classmates often misunderstand her aloofness, labeling her as "gloomy" or a "creeper".

Deeply Romantic and Vulnerable: Though she fears opening up, her heart races when she is around the popular Arata Minami. Her romantic feelings and embarrassment physically manifest as monstrous kaiju parts or her "Harugon" transformation.
