Yuuko Kamiya

Yuuko Kamiya (八神 裕子) is the mother of Tai and Kari.

Appearance
Much like her daughter, Yuuko has brown hair and eyes. Her hair is always tied in a ponytail and she usually wears an orange apron with a stylized frog on it over her usual set of clothes when preparing meals. In warmer weather, she wears a blue and white striped sleeveless tank top shirt, and light brown cargo shorts. Her signature standard outfit consists of a white or dark purple top, a yellow or cream colored long sleeve one button sweater, and beige or light blue pants. She goes sockless and her footwear consists of a simple pair of white high heeled sandals when outdoors and in public places. She is normally barefoot in the apartment and other indoor settings, only wearing slippers on a couple occasions.

Description
In the American English dub, there's a recurring gag where she comes up with odd recipes, like beef jerky shakes or fungus cookies. Aside from that, Yuuko is a kind, supportive mother who loves her children.

Fiction
A few years prior to the Highton View Terrace incident, Yuuko married Susumu Kamiya and moved to Highton View Terrace. Eventually, she gave birth to Tai and Kari and adopted Miko. The family later moved away due to the incident, which was reported as a terrorist attack.

During the incident, Yuuko cheerfully bakes a cake for Tai and Izzy, oblivious to the conflict over the Peace Keeper nuclear missile.
