Tetsuko Sanada (真田 哲子, Sanada Tetsuko) is the late mother of Ryu Sanada and Toru Sanada. She died while she went to pick up her younger son at school, in a car crash caused by the ground frozen by the snow.
Appearance[]
Mrs. Sanada looks remarkably similar in appearance to her son, Toru, but with more feminine features. She had a slender and good-looking figure with short light colored hair.
Personality[]
Not much is known about her, but it looks like she was a very kind and caring woman. We can assume that she loved her children and Chizuru.
Relationships[]
Genji Sanada[]
Genji is Tetsuko's husband and the father of their children. It seems they were deeply in love with each other, since her husband was seen to cry and despair after her death.
Chiaki Yoshida[]
Sanada family's neighbor, with whom she appears to have been close friends. In flashbacks, they often appear together discussing or watching their similar-aged children (Chizuru and Ryu, as well as Toru and Chizuru's unnamed older brother). Chiaki appeared distraught at Tetsuko's death, and helped look after and cook meals for her sons after the accident.
Chizuru Yoshida[]
Chiaki's daughter. Tetsuko often made onigiri for her and Ryu to eat, and deeply cared for her. She appreciated Chizuru's close friendship with her son Ryu, especially as he was often misunderstood by other children, and joked about how the pair might get married one day. After her death, Chizuru was seen grieving, after realizing that she will never be able to see her again.
Etymology[]
- The name Tetsuko means "philosophy" (哲) (tetsu) and "child" (子) (ko).
- Tetsuko's surname Sanada means "braid, plait" (真田).
