Character

Ume Aihara

あいはらうめ 藍原梅

Ume Aihara (藍原あいはら 梅うめ Aihara Ume?), née Okogi (小此木おこぎ?), is Yuzu's mother and Mei's stepmother. She is currently married with Shō Aihara. She is a tall adult woman with neck-length black hair styled in swept bangs. She has somewhat similar facial features to her daughter Yuzu. Despite her age and the fact she's a mother, she's childish, playful and immature, going as far as calling her husband a "tsundere", and mocking Yuzu after she dyes her hair black despite being the one to tell her to. She shows a more mature side sometimes, however. Like Yuzu, she enjoys fashion and shopping.
