A priestess at the temple near Akito's home and Ai's mother. She's got that cool, striking beauty—the kind of gaze that seems to see right through you—and carries herself with quiet authority.
Despite her composed exterior, she's genuinely devoted to Ai, putting her daughter's needs above everything else. That said, she's fiercely protective to the point of being outright hostile toward any man who gets too close to her daughter. Akito gets the worst of it, probably because he's the only person besides Sumire that Ai actually likes.
She's caught in a difficult situation: the temple needs an heir, ideally a son, but her husband abandoned her years ago with no word of his whereabouts. With each passing year, having another child becomes less realistic. The pressure's mounting, and she knows it.
