My middle child has completely ditched the pink sparkles lately, and honestly, I get it. Everything in her world right now is about being just a little bit rebellious and wearing entirely too much black.
That’s why our incredible team at LittleColorables spent around 17 days sketching up these brand new printable Kuromi coloring pages for you all.
I tried to make sure we captured all her moody little vibes in this collection. Some are definitely spooky, and some are just plain silly.
Just grab your darkest crayons and let the kids go completely wild on these. Scroll down to grab your favorites before the kids completely lose their minds.

Kuromi Highlights
Kuromi Relaxing in a Dark Rose Bathtub
This one is just pure moody luxury. Kuromi is sitting in a vintage clawfoot tub absolutely covered in what I imagine are dark red or black roses. She has a little heart mirror on the wall behind her.
I think this is a great Kuromi coloring sheet for practicing shading on petals. My oldest spent an hour just coloring the water a murky purple. It turned out weirdly beautiful.
Kuromi with a Black Witch Hat and Cape
She looks ready to cast a hex on My Melody here. She is standing in front of a little castle. Kuromi is wearing a classic witch hat with her skull logo and a sweeping cape.
The little skull details in the grass are a fun touch for kids to discover. Use this one around Halloween or whenever your kid is feeling particularly magical. I suggest heavy blacks and neon greens.
Kuromi Sleeping in a Coffin-Shaped Bed
Okay, this one is undeniably gothic. She is tucked into a coffin-shaped bed with a heart pillow. She looks surprisingly peaceful in there.
Honestly, I wish I could sleep that soundly some nights. We wanted to design Kuromi coloring pages for kids that feel cozy but dark. The wooden coffin details also need some heavy shading.
Kuromi in a Dark Forest with Glowing Mushrooms
We put Kuromi right in the middle of a creepy, enchanted forest for this design. She is walking on a winding path. Big, spotted mushrooms surround her everywhere.
Do mushrooms actually glow? Maybe. You can definitely make them glow on this page with some bright yellow or neon pink markers against a dark background.
Kuromi Riding a Midnight Hot Air Balloon
Floating high above the clouds under a crescent moon, she looks like she’s plotting something big. She is standing in a woven basket. The hot air balloon has her signature skull right on the front.
This is one of those free Kuromi coloring pages that gives you a lot of negative space. Kids can color the night sky however they want. They can add bright stars or dark swirling clouds.
Kuromi Sailing a Tiny Pirate Ship
Captain Kuromi is at the wheel of a little wooden ship. A skull-and-crossbones flag flies high above her. She’s wearing a pirate hat and looks ready to steal some serious treasure.
The ocean waves in the background are perfect for mixing different shades of blue and gray. It’s a really fun Kuromi coloring sheet if your kids are into pirate adventures. My youngest likes to color the water purple instead.
Kuromi Inside a Spooky Snow Globe
Instead of a winter wonderland, this snow globe is filled with black snowflakes. Kuromi is sitting right in the center. She is looking out with a very mischievous smirk.
The glass reflection lines are already drawn in. This helps the whole thing look highly 3D. I tell my kids to use a very light blue on the edges of the glass.
Kuromi Lounging in a Spiderweb Hammock
Strung up between two dead trees, this spiderweb hammock looks oddly comfortable. Kuromi is just chilling with her skull bow. There are bats flying around the gothic window in the background.
We wanted to make some Kuromi coloring pages for kids that are just a little bit creepy but still cute. The intricate web is great for practicing fine motor skills. I highly recommend using a sharp colored pencil here.
Tips for Coloring Kuromi
1. Master the Black and Grey Tones
Kuromi’s whole aesthetic is built on dark colors. If you just press down hard with a cheap black crayon, the page turns into a muddy mess.
I always tell my students to layer greys first. It gives the printable Kuromi coloring pages some much-needed depth.
2. Don’t Forget the Pink Details
Even though she is a goth icon, her skull bow and nose are usually bright pink. This contrast is what makes the character design actually work.
Try using a neon pink gel pen for those tiny details. It stands out beautifully against the dark charcoal greys. You can even add some pink blush to her cheeks.
3. Blending Spooky Backgrounds
A lot of these backgrounds have night skies or creepy forests. Flat colors just make it look a bit dead.
Have your kids try blending dark blue into purple for the sky. They can experiment with mixing colors right on the paper. It instantly upgrades any of these prints.
4. Choosing the Right Markers
Markers bleed. They just do. If you are printing these at home on cheap printer paper, beware.
Put a scrap piece of paper behind the page you are coloring. Otherwise, your kitchen table is going to have permanent black streaks on it.
5. Texture on the Props
Look at the coffin bed or the pirate ship. Wood shouldn’t just be one solid block of brown.
Draw faint dark brown lines over a lighter tan base to mimic wood grain. It’s a simple trick that older kids absolutely love doing.
6. Making the Magic Glow
Whether it is the glowing mushrooms or the stars, you want that light to shine. The trick is leaving white space.
Don’t color right up to the edge of the star. Leave a tiny white halo around it. Then lightly shade yellow outward into the dark sky.
7. Embrace the Weird Colors
Water doesn’t always have to be blue, especially in Kuromi’s world. The bathtub water or the ocean can be whatever wild color they want.
Slime green water? Sure. Blood red rose bath? Why not. Let them get completely weird with it.
8. Frame the Finished Pieces
These pages have a lot of intricate gothic borders and details. They actually look like little art prints when they are done.
Cut off the edges and mount them on black construction paper. It makes the final artwork pop. It also gives the kids a huge sense of pride.
