Nataka Kurokawa (黒川ナタカ) is a character that has yet to make a formal debut in Deep-Sea Prisoner's creations. She is a student who attends Sabi High School. [2]
Physical Description
Nataka has a messy black bob, fair skin, lifeless black eyes with heavy bags, and black nails. She wears a school uniform consisting of a white dress shirt, red tie, black vest with three gray buttons, gray pleated skirt, black knee socks, and gray loafers. In some illustrations she can be seen wearing a gray shirt, sometimes with a black vest.
Personality
Nataka suffers from depression and has low self-esteem. She does not seem to care for her own wellbeing and is often shown to have suicidal thoughts. She also has violent fits of rage, which often lead her to destroy her own belongings. Nataka is shown smoking in many supplementary illustrations. She once drank alcohol in a mini-comic.
Nataka does not like buses or trains. [3] She also does not like burgers without pickles, as shown in a mini-comic.
Background
Nataka does not have a father and her mother is never home. [4] The only one present when she returns home is her aunt's African grey parrot who she takes care of. [4]
Nataka has medical issues including a weak stomach which frequently causes her to cough up blood. She is also plagued by nightmares. [5] Some artworks depict her alongside suicidal imagery.
