Akemi Kawakami

Acting as a devoted foster parent to Jin, this former hostess now spends her days operating a roadside crepe stall. Though Jin affectionately calls her "Oba-chan," her past is marked by tragedy, including the loss of her biological son to her ex-husband. After a violent encounter left her face scarred, she found a new sense of purpose alongside Jin, who once defended her by incapacitating her attacker in a moment of protective fury.
