Ms. Mikami

Mrs. Mikami was the mother of Teru Mikami. She appears only in a flashback sequence of events that detail her son's childhood.

Appearance
Mrs. Mikami's entire face is never clearly shown. While she appears to be wearing a wedding ring, neither she nor Teru mention a husband or father.

Character
Mrs. Mikami appears to be a caring mother and is shown to be concerned for Teru's well-being. After Teru comes home with bruises on his face, she attempts to talk him out of confronting the bullies at his school due to his frequent injuries.

Plot
Mrs. Mikami understood her son's sense of justice, but told him that it would be silly to hurt so much in order to defend others. Teru thought she did not understand the meaning of "justice" and thought that she could be "deleted."

She died while Teru was still young, in a car accident that also killed three boys from the school her son was attending.
