Juro Kurabe (Mystery Files)
For the main page regarding this character, see: Juro Kurabe.
Juro Kurabe is a 16-year-boy from Sakura High School. He loves B-movies and enjoys watching kaiju videos every night. While soft-spoken and good-natured, he feels something off about his everyday life, and one day finds himself summoning a giant robot for real.
During the battle of 2025, he sustained brain damage and was nearly reduced to an empty husk. To prevent this outcome, Morimura created the new personality Juro Kurabe and implanted it in him.
Kurabe's memories are being manipulated by Kyuta Shiba through video tapes, but Shiba is quick to wipe his memory whenever he gets too close to the truth.
According to the medical records in the nurse's office, Kurabe has been administered NM: A8075 and B01. He received four doses of NM: A8075, then the fifth dose on was switched to B01, which was created by Tamao Kurabe.[1]
Although the Juro Izumi that Megumi Yakushiji knew is nearly gone, Kurabe still remembers fighting in the Sentinel and his feelings towards Yakushiji.
When 426 was arrested one loop ago, it became clear that 426 and Izumi (One Loop Ago) are genetically identical.[2]
Due to the incompatibility between the violent memories of Izumi (two loops ago) that Morimura transplanted and the gentle artificial personality that Tamao created, Kurabe nearly had a breakdown. To avoid this, Shiba turned those memories into something tangible (video tapes) to allow Kurabe to perceive them as mere dreams.
When the kaiju appear in 1985, Shiba can't take part in the battle, so he entrusts everything to Kurabe. Kurabe then activates Sentinel No. 13 in order to support Iori Fuyusaka, who joined the battle before him.
