Kurou Minamoto

Kurou Minamoto (源本 九郎 Minamoto Kurō) is a member of the Dark Princess alongside Otoya Hanazono and Ranta Mori. His character was created by Mikiyo Tsuda specifically for the live action series.

Appearance
Kurou wears the typical school uniform: a black jacket and pants with a white shirt. He has brown eyes and black hair. When in his princess attire, he wears a black Gothic Lolita dress, high heels and a wig with curls.

Personality
Kurou has a rather conflictive personality. He always says that he can't understand Otoya at all and complains about having to do all the 'dirty work' with Ranta while Otoya only give orders and does nothing. However, he worries about Otoya and many times has tried to become closer with him, only to be pushed away by Otoya. Kurou actually feels grateful towards Otoya since before being recluted by the last into joining the Black Princess, he didn't have any goal on life.

Plot
Since Otoya Hanazono was dissatisfied with the current Princesses' half-hearted efforts and even accused the Student Council of being neglectful of the students' wishes, he creates his own team, the Dark Princess, to rival the Princesses, and reclutes Kurou and Ranta to help him.
