Yurui (anime)
CharacterThis Yurui was an anime-only Kumogakure shinobi who led a squad in the Third Division during the Fourth Shinobi World War. Remembered as a sharp trap-setter, he was cut down by Ameyuri Ringo and passed his cause on to his comrade Nurui.
Appearance
Darker skin and dark eyes went with the shoulder-length, muted purple hair this Yurui wore, framed by thin brows of the same faded purple. He kept two hoops in each earlobe and a piercing set into his lower lip, and otherwise dressed in the customary garb of Kumogakure's ninja.
Abilities
His combat skills were never put on display, yet command of a squad points to a capable fighter. Nurui credited him as a gifted planner with a talent for traps, recalling how he engineered a cunning snare from the surrounding terrain and Earth Release, with Nurui and Kayui lending their help.
