This led to them becoming rivals and Nene noted that she had gone to great lengths to gain the power needed to best her. However, at the same time, she had still came to view Kurono as a friend, as she did genuinely congratulate Kurono over her marriage to Takumi but was angry and saddened that they would never fight again. Even now, Nene still remains angry with Kurono's decision, giving her a bitter and aggressive look when reminding her about her fears of becoming a Desperado. Eventually, as Kurono gained encouragement from her family, she promised Nene they would back to settle the score from the summer. Nene's wish would come true.
