Rokuro is the twin brother of Akira Kuran and the cousin of Kaname and Yuki. He was the one who was supposed to be Akira's fiance but it ended up being Senri because he dissapeared with Rido after his father killed Haruka and Juri Kuran.
Personality
Rokuro's personality is very much so like the personality of Yuki Sohma from the popular reverse harem "Fruit's Basket". He acts very kind but when it comes to Kaname and Senri he is very irritable, rude and arrogant. He is deeply in love with Akira so much so to the point that he will kill family in order to get to her. This he most likely gets from spending such large ammounts of time with his father, Rido Kuran.

History
Rokuro was larger then usual when he was born, which is the exact opposite of his older twin sister Akira. Rokuro grew up alone with just his father for the first 3 years of his life until his father finally allowed Akira to stop living in issolation. In order to try and steal Yuki from Juri and Haruka he leaves Rokuro and his twin sister Akira alone and they are soon found by Haruka. Haruka sacrifices Akira to the ancestor of the Hio Clan, Aoi Hio in order to get revenge against his brother for sacrificing his son to Kaname (the ancestor). This makes Rokuro very irritated with Haruka and Juri and he begins to help his father try and plan their deaths. Haruka and Juri then take in Rokuro and Akira. After they die Rokuro dissapears with Rido.

Relationship's
Akira Kuran
Rokuro holds a strong love for Akira. He is very protective of her and this leads him to do things he wouldnt usually do such as helping plot to kill Haruka and Juri. He would do anything for Akira as long as it doesnt endanger her life or his life in anyway. His love for Akira is also what causes him to hate Kaname, because he knows that Akira loves Kaname more than she loves him.
Kaname Kuran
Rokuro and Kaname hold a mutual hatred for each other. Rokuro hates Kaname for being so close to Akira and Kaname hate's Rokuro for betraying Akira's trust and helping kill Haruka and Juri. Despite the fact that Rokuro hates Kaname he would never kill him due to the fact that he knows Akira would hate him if he did.
Senri Shiki
Rokuro also hates Senri. The reason that he hates Senri is very simple, because Senri became Akira's fiance after he left. This makes him hate Senri and causes very much animosity between the two half brothers. Senri also seems to hate Rokuro because he was Akira's fiance before him. Though they hate each other they are seen spending a lot of time together in the special; A Relationship of the Past.
Then later in one of the other specials they are seen arguing with Kaname and begin to be seen spending a lot of time together. Although it takes a while, by the end of the series they seem to get along relatively good. But despite the fact that Rokuro had once hated Senri he seems to have still trusted him, because he brings Akira to Senri and tells him to protect her from Kaname at the end of the second season of the Night Class Pureblood.
