Description
Ranmaru Kurosaki hails from a formerly affluent family, once comparable to the Jinguji and Hijirikawa clans. His Japanese father and Italian-American mother lost their wealth through a colleague's betrayal, resulting in his father's death from overwork and substantial inherited debts. This financial collapse forced Ranmaru to leave home, burdened with repaying obligations through his idol career. These events forged lasting trust issues and a pragmatic worldview.
Personality-wise, he displays a reactive, moody demeanor often interpreted as tsundere. A self-proclaimed rocker, he rigidly upholds principles of musical authenticity. Early interactions expose misogynistic tendencies—he refuses songs composed by women, linking this stance to past band disbandments involving female members and the betrayal that ruined his family. Despite his abrasive exterior, he shows unexpected compassion, such as aiding an elderly couple with yakuza debts. He adapts to brief sleep breaks anywhere and nicknames his bass guitars "girlfriends."
Visually, he stands 182 cm tall with dyed silver spiky hair and pale skin. He intentionally wears one purple contact lens for heterochromia against his natural silver eyes, paired with dark grey eyeshadow. His typical attire mixes skin-tight shirts with houndstooth vests, reflecting his dark red theme color. Recent TABOO NIGHT XXXX promotions feature him in a white shirt and black gloves.
His narrative begins in QUARTET NIGHT, mentoring Masato Hijirikawa and Ren Jinguji at Saotome Academy. Initially dismissive, he criticizes reliance on others and questions impulsive career choices like Cecil Aijima's. His involvement deepens during group activities, where he participates reluctantly while maintaining a brash attitude. He contributes to QUARTET NIGHT performances in films like Maji LOVE Kingdom and the upcoming TABOO NIGHT XXXX, the latter including his solo song "Black Panther."
Relationships reveal childhood ties to Masato and Ren through shared elite backgrounds, though he avoids mentioning his family's bankruptcy. Exchanges with Camus involve mutual insults amid professional collaboration. Cecil Aijima's earnest flattery unsettles him, exposing a softer side. He also demonstrates warmth toward stray cats, feeding them near his modest apartment—unlike his peers' luxurious homes.
Additional background includes bilingual English fluency from U.S. childhood residency, a minimally furnished apartment reflecting pragmatism, and sentimental attachment to a childhood stuffed bear. His demanding schedule necessitates brief sleep during breaks, underscoring his intense work ethic.
