Kuranosuke Koibuchi, the cross-dressing son of the wealthy and politically influential Koibuchi family, adopts the alias "Kurako" to conceal his gender while interacting with residents of the women-only Amamizukan apartment building. Born from an affair between politician Keiichiro Koibuchi and Italian diva Lina, he spent his early years with his mother, developing a deep appreciation for fashion through her extensive wardrobe. Sent to live with his father's family later, he lost contact with his mother and harbors a persistent desire to reconnect with her. His appearance features ochre hair styled in a bobcut and distinctive violet eyes. Passionate about fashion, he frequently wears women's clothing, makeup, and various wigs, showcasing a wide range of stylish outfits. This cross-dressing serves as an expression of his passion, a tribute to his mother, and a deliberate rejection of the political career expected by his family. Though he presents femininely most of the time, he occasionally appears in masculine attire at home or when fatigued, always retaining his graceful demeanor and pale complexion. Confident, flamboyant, and outgoing, Kuranosuke firmly believes all women possess inherent beauty. He initially struggles to relate to the unconventional lifestyles of the Amars, particularly their indifference to fashion. While sometimes vain or selfish, he demonstrates genuine dedication to helping others, especially in efforts to bolster the Amars' self-confidence and protect their home. His philosophy champions clothing as practical armor against societal judgment, advising strategic use of fashion to command respect rather than conforming. Key relationships define his development. He shares a strained relationship with his disapproving father due to his cross-dressing and disinterest in politics. His older brother, Shū, tolerates but dislikes his hobbies. An eccentric uncle affectionately calls him "Kura-pyon" and encourages his feminine presentation. Though consistently popular with women, past romantic entanglements left him bored until meeting Tsukimi Kurashita. Their bond begins platonically after collaborating to rescue a jellyfish named Clara, evolving into romantic attraction. He experiences jealousy over Tsukimi's interest in Shū, leading to internal conflict and manipulative actions like ensuring she wears her glasses to impede their conversations. His involvement with the Amars marks significant growth. Initially visiting Tsukimi out of curiosity, he finds her and the other residents more compelling than his previous social circle. He actively assists them with strategic makeovers and food bribes, becoming instrumental in their fight against the eviction of Amamizukan. While his initial deception about his gender causes tension, his consistent support fosters mutual trust. A pivotal moment sees him confront societal prejudices by asserting clothing's transformative power during conflicts. Throughout his journey, his cross-dressing remains a sincere expression of identity and interest, devoid of trauma and requiring no resolution. His character arc focuses on embracing his passion for fashion, forging authentic connections beyond superficiality, and navigating complex familial and romantic challenges.
