Mariko Kouda

Mariko is an 80-year-old veteran writer, active in the magazine "Gunsei". Since she was always a writer and never a housewife, she could be described as "out of touch" in that regard. Her husband is deceased, and she leaves home after realizing her family sees her as a nuisance due to her age. However, despite being in her eighties, Mariko is quite energetic and in good health.
