His existence has been mentioned several times in conversations in the series and in the TV-only drama “The Beginning with My Brother.”
However, Natsu does not talk much about her father, who was separated from her when she was a child, and her mother Yukiko (Naomi Nishida) also does not reveal the details of her divorce from Motoharu, so it’s not clear what kind of person she is.
