An author who writes fantasy stories (which her missing husband and son are extremely interested in), Gintas mother is a strong drinker and smoker, and also apparently has an interest in cooking unusual foods, once trying to make "pizza curry". In spite of her occupation, she stands a very practical viewpoint in matters regarding fantasied subjects, therefore tends to make light of her husbands, and later sons, passion for such. After Gintas disappearance, however, she rues this dearly, thinking it was her fault her familys gone and as Koyuki narrates Gintas journey in MÄR-Heaven, starts seeing fantasy in a different light.
