Kuroyuri


 * For the episode of the same name, see Kuroyuri (episode).

Kuroyuri was a village on the continent of Anima. It was the hometown of Lie Ren and where he met Nora Valkyrie, then a homeless child. Kuroyuri was destroyed after a group of Grimm attacked the village, among them the Nuckelavee Grimm. Ren's parents were apparently killed during the attack.

The town included canals, stores, a market place and a large cherry blossom tree.

Ruby Rose and Jaune Arc enter the town carrying a sick Qrow Branwen in search of medicine to heal him, only to find it completely abandoned and empty. Ren and Nora split with the group in order to avoid visiting the village. At some point the Nuckelavee Grimm came to reside in a cave overlooking the village and at the end of the episode Kuroyuri it is seen heading towards the village again.

Trivia

 * "Kuroyuri" is the Romanized spelling of the Japanese word for black lily, which is also the town's symbol. It means "love" or "curse" in the Japanese language of flowers.
