Kurie Ito attends middle school with Bocchi Hitori. She has black hair styled in two braids secured by spherical white accessories, falling past her shoulders, with bangs and a distinct chin-length strand framing her face. Her maroon-red eyes are accentuated by red-framed rectangular glasses. Her standard school attire includes a dark gray, buttoned woolen sweater.

Her family operates a bookstore, reflecting her connection to literary environments, and she serves on the library committee. Described as shy, she shares Bocchi Hitori's initial social hesitance. She participates in group activities, such as collaborating with Bocchi, Onaka Peko, and Nosaki Futago during a cooking class to prepare pancakes. During a New Year's shrine visit, she formally becomes friends with Bocchi alongside Peko. Her character exhibits quiet consistency.

Her name originates from the Japanese pronunciation of the English word "create" (クリエイト, kurieito).
