Relationships[]
- Iroha Tamaki: Iroha and Kuroe knew each other from the beginning and usually fought Witches together. However, after witnessing Kuroe feeling like a weakling in contrast to Iroha's constantly developing power, Iroha started caring more about Kuroe but was emotionally hurt after seeing Kuroe turning into her Witch, Ichizo.
- Yachiyo Nanami: Yachiyo initially met Kuroe when she travelled to Kamihama City. Yachiyo doesn't trust Kuroe because she's a Black Feather at Wings of the Magius while Kuroe sees Yachiyo as someone far stronger than her but had a common goal, to save and help Iroha.
- Kuro: Kuro met Kuroe after saving her at Slave of Anima's Labyrinth. Kuro was nervous around Kuroe and Kuroe didn't specially seem to be interested in forming a bond with her. Instead, she lied about having no Grief Seeds left and dropped that girl. Later, Kuro started appearing in Kuroe's imagination to "haunt" her.
