Eiichirou's mother is a strong-willed woman who has her hand in everything the family does. She's genuinely proud of her son and wants what's best for him, though she doesn't always go about it gently. When he mentioned needing to get in better shape, she was the one who pushed him toward STC. But she never expected—or wanted—him to get serious about it. When he told her he wanted to go pro in tennis, she was furious. Eventually they came to an understanding: he could keep pursuing it, but only on her terms. If he loses at the All Japan tournament, he's done. That's the deal.
