Appearance
Personality
She is a very kind and strong-willed woman who cares for her son a great deal. Though she refuses to attend any of Ippo's matches because she doesn't want to watch him get hurt, she supports his boxing wholeheartedly because she knows how much joy it has brought to his life and how it has helped him with his self-esteem. She also would always know when Ippo would hide his tears when he came home from school when something happened to him.
Quotes
- "You want me to come and watch you get punched? ...I'll definitely come when you won't get punched at all." - Episode 14, when Ippo asked her to come to one of his matches (to which Ippo thought, "That's impossible.")
