Kurou is the second-in-command of Benawi's cavalry. When the first emperor falls, he remains loyal to Benawi, and, in turn, to Hakuoro, to whom Benawi swears allegiance. Kurou tends to be a source of comedic relief of the anime, usually seen either arguing with Oboro, helping to plan military actions, training with his men in the courtyard or on the battlefield, by Benawi's side.

His main weapon of choice is a thick longsword which he uses very effectively and with great skill in battle. He always calls Hakuro "Commander" when speaking to him, and always calls Benawi "General", even when Benawi's rank was taken by Nuwangi for a time.

In the OVA, it is revealed that he has a thing for young, petite girls.
