Kurozuka - Episode 10
Chapter X
The Castle Of Mirage
Upon arrival, Kuro and Rai are greeted by Hasegawa. They learn that Kuon is a traitor. That’s why he was missing. Kuro and get taken by Hasegawa.
This episode surprisingly gives a lot of answers.
Hasegawa explains most mysteries about Kuro. He’s not truly immortal but, he can change bodies when his dies or ages. Kuromitsu has been doing that for him all this time. That’s also the reason why he loses all his memories.
Kuon is one of Hasegawa’s creations. From what I understand, he’s a clone with some of Kuro’s blood in the mix.
It seems Kuon wasn’t aware of all the facts. The reaç Kuon is sent to kill him now that he’s not needed anymore.
But, as with Kuro, it seems the Imperial Red Army has underestimated their strength. Kuon gets up after being "killed" and takes revenge on the real Kuon.

Kuro also manages to break free and save Rai from being injected with his blood.
Hasegawa, in order to defeat Kuro, injects himself with something.
This episode made it almost seem like Hasegawa was the head of the Imperial Army, being he the one who constructed the castle and being searching for Kuro for so long.. I’m just saying this because I always fought there was someone higher than him. I thought he was just a scientist working for them. Anyway, more on that will probably come in the next episodes.
I think I understand less and less of Kuromitsu’s intentions. Now, she’s shown alongside Hasegawa witnessing Kuon’s cloning. What does she want with the Imperial Army?
Who’s that one who seems like her past love, before Kuro? What was all that talk about "if you want to be loved by Kuromitsu" or something like that?
Still many answers to be given. It was an interesting episode with many revelations.
