Shinobu no Okaasan

The Oomiya mother serves as the quiet yet essential pillar holding the entire household together. Her friendship with Alice's mother dates back to their shared university days — a bond that ultimately opened the door for Alice's journey to Japan. Whether it's Shinobu's relentless obsession with blonde hair or Alice's cultural quirks, she meets every situation with unshakeable composure and a gentle smile. Beneath her laid-back, carefree demeanor lies a deeply trusted figure for all the children under her roof, and for Alice especially, she embodies the warmth of a second mother in a foreign land.
