Ruri Gokou

About Gokou, Ruri

BWH: 77-53-80 Ruri Gokou goes by Kuroneko online—literally "Black Cat"—and she's part of Saori's All Together otaku community. She showed up to one of their in-person meetups pretty standoffish, same as Kirino, but loosened up once everyone got to Saori's place afterward and actually got introduced. She's into dark fantasy anime but absolutely cannot stand the cute stuff like Meruru, which naturally gets Kirino going. They bicker about taste constantly, but it doesn't really damage their friendship—Kuroneko's just got that cold exterior toward non-otaku types. Underneath she actually cares a lot about her friends. The whole goth lolita aesthetic is basically her daily look. She's got this striking scarlet-eyed thing going on that matches her favorite show, Maschera ~Lamentation of the Fallen~—except the red eyes are just contacts. Her real irises are actually lavender. She dresses the part seriously, not just at conventions. As for creative work, she writes doujinshi and novels, though they never really caught on. Part of the problem is that she's genuinely smart and writes with a massive vocabulary, which ends up making everything too dense for casual readers. Her stuff is too sophisticated to be popular, basically.
