It's like the hero is still in its child phase, but the warrior alien brother already showed up! That example sucked! Damn this fatigue, I'd say I'm only about a third as sharp as usual! So anyway, the hell are we talkin' about? You sayin' something about making adults into sausages? Gonna pull out the organs, grind 'em up, make 'em into yummy, cruelty-free cuisine? And then, ya gather 'em up, sell 'em in a supermarket, and become an urban legend? Huh? Now that sounds awesome. I wanna see that! Hahahaha! | „ |

Kurokuma is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside The Servant) in Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls.
He is a Monokuma Unit created by Monaca Towa, and he serves as the advisor of the Warriors of Hope. Later on, he, along with Shirokuma, was revealed to actually be a part of Alter Ego Junko.
He was voiced by Erin Fitzgerald in the English dub and by Megumi Toyoguchi in the Japanese version.
Biography[]
After Junko Enoshima's death, he started working as the Advisor of the Warriors of Hope. All the members didn't notice him to be a part of Junko's AI, and they show very little (if any) respect for him.
Kurokuma was initially the one that gave ideas to how to kill adults, and even worked together with Monaca, being the one who made the idea of creating the second Junko Enoshima. However, as the Warriors became more skilled, they started to grow tired of Kurokuma's overly talkative behavior. Most of the time, he was kept in silent mode due to him talking too much, and the Warriors rarely talk to him. Kotoko Utsugi even suggested getting rid of him.
Kurokuma appears for the first time during a meeting with Monaca, Kotoko and Nagisa, and together they discuss their plan to wipe out the resistance. During the discussion, he shows no useful ideas. Kurokuma later reappears at the end of Chapter 3, and he talks with Monaca about the plan to create the Second Junko Enoshima, and also about how he's looking forward to the outcome.
When Nagisa beats up The Servant, Kurokuma intervenes and he attempts to antagonize Nagisa to make him angrier. However, this results in Nagisa kicking him away. He later watches Nagisa slapping Monaca multiple times, and he comments on how vicious Monaca is.
While the Big Bang Monokuma was destroying the Monokuma Units in Towa City, Monaca and Kurokuma were watching it from a television. The Servant comes to Monaca by saying that he will now leave, antagonizing her and Kurokuma one last time. After The Servant left, they were both ready to start Kurokuma's plan.
Kurokuma meets Komaru and Toko for the first time in the center room of the Warriors' base, and he tells them to play a game on which room Monaca is in. When he sees that Monaca can stand, he was so surprised that he falls off his chair.
Monaca and Kurokuma then summon their robot, which appears to be a fusion of the Warriors' other robots. After the battle, the robot was so damaged that it exploded, destroying Kurokuma's body. His head then flies out the window screaming.
In the epilogue, after Kurokuma and Shirokuma have a long talk, they reveal themselves to actually be Alter Ego Junko. However, Izuru Kamukura removes their hard-drives, making them shut down for good.
