Muneyama Kurenai

Housewife and stepmother of the protagonist.

Unlike her daughter, she is always calm and collected. Although she is pragmatic about her own life, she wants her daughter and the protagonist to live freely.

She sees Lucy as a rival and although she often gets competetive with her over every little thing, it's not that she hates her deep down. She treats her that way because she recognizes and respects her.

She originally married the protagonist's father for the sake of a mission, but after building a happy home together, she's eventually grown to appreciate the comfort of that happiness.
