Sequence of Events

  • Sometime before the anime, Kuroe contracts with Kyubey and becomes a Magical Girl. Also before the anime, she meets Iroha Tamaki.
  • In the first season, Kuroe fights alongside Iroha Tamaki when they fight Box Wood in order to rescue a cat. On the second day, Kuroe goes to Kamihama with Iroha. She doesn't appear afterwards until a brief cut in the last episode. Iroha calls her several times in episode 2, but is not answered.
    • This cat could be a reference to Amy.
  • Kuroe joins Wings of Magius as a black feather. In episode 15, she got a task from Nemu Hiiragi to find the rumour of the eternal sakura and to protect Iroha.
  • Kuroe 'connects' with Yachiyo in episode 16. That makes Yachiyo's spear's shape slightly changed.
  • Kuroe can build walls. This might be her ability.
    • In episode 17, she builds a wall so Iroha and Rena can fixate the doppel of Kaede onto it.
    • In episode 18, she builds a wall to give Iroha some time to exit.
  • Kuroe shows her transformation sequence and doppel form in episode 18.
    • Kuroe's doppel form has some similarity to Akemi Homura's transformation in episode 12 of Madoka Magica.
  • In episodes 19 and 20, her doppel turns into a form of a magical girl and reminds her not to forget about it.
  • Kuroe becomes a witch in episode 24.
    • After becoming a magical girl, she is constantly aware of her weakness. She once defended a Magical Girl in a white robe. When that girl requested a grief seed, Kuroe told her she had none to give. She never saw that girl again and she looks back on that day with regret.
      • This girl is holding a white cat, and may reference the cat Iroha and Kuroe rescued in episode 1.

Etymology

  • The character 黒 in her name means "black", which could reference her dark color scheme.
  • The character 江 in her name means "inlet" or "bay".

Trivia

  • Her design and coloration could be seen as an inverse of Iroha Tamaki's design.
  • She was added to the Magia Record game to celebrate the final season of the anime. (See also: Kuroe (Game))
