Hisako Reizei (冷泉 久子, Reizei Hisako) is a resident in Ooarai City. She is the grandmother of Mako Reizei and her only surviving family member.

Profile[]

Mako Reizei's parents both died in an accident whilst Mako was still in elementary school, leaving Hisako Reizei as her only remaining family member. Hisako thus took care of Mako until she entered middle school. She frequently plays pranks to scare Mako, and the two fight often, but nonetheless have a close relationship.

Hisako collapsed for an unspecified reason in the midst of Ooarai's match against Saunders, and was transferred to Ooarai. With the aid of a Kuromorimine helicopter, Mako Reizei and Saori Takebe rushed back to Ooarai City to watch over her. Miho, Hana and Yukari returned along with the school carrier and were able to visit the following morning, whereupon they met Hisako, and she learnt that Mako had taken up Sensha-dō.

Hisako was discharged from hospital during Episode 9, and made sweets for Anglerfish Team as thanks for visiting her. She came to watch the finals against Kuromorimine. She also was seen spectating the match between Ooarai and the All-Stars University Team.

Appearance[]

Hisako is a short elderly woman who first meets the Anglerfish Team in hospital, where she wears a purple nightshirt. Once discharged, she attends Ooarai's Sensha-dō matches wearing a green gown with a purple purse. She ties her greyed hair into a bun, and moves with the aid of a walking stick. During moments of extreme happiness, she is seen to scorn the stick and dance around with it.

Personality[]

Although Hisako comes across as cranky and stubborn when she first meets the Ooarai girls, Saori Takebe puts this down to her 'high spirits' and the annoyance of being cooped up in the hospital after her fall. Irrelevant of their arguments, she cares deeply for Mako Reizei and only asks Miho Nishizumi to take care of her whilst she is away on the school ship. Hisako shows her kindness by making and sending sweets to the Anglerfish Team as soon as she returns home, in thanks for visiting her at the hospital.

Despite her initial reaction to Mako's participation in Sensha-dō being aloof and annoyed at the fact that driving tanks "doesn't pay the bills", she is shown to respect Mako's activities and attends all of Ooarai's Sensha-dō matches.

In the spin-off manga Motto Love Love Sakusen Desu!, Hisako's more playful, cheekier side is shown, as she frequently plays practical jokes on Mako. It is implied that she is nonetheless grateful to her granddaughter for coming to take care of her whenever she can.

Etymology[]

  • The name Hisako means "long time" (久) (hisa) and "child" (子) (ko).
  • Hisako's surname Reizei means "cold" (冷) (rei) and "spring, fountain" (泉) (sei/zei).

Trivia[]

  • Hisako allegedly has heart problems, which possibly contributed to her collapsing in Episode 6.
  • Hisako is one of the few people or things that is capable of getting Mako Reizei out of bed early.
  • Mako's main motivation for finishing school is so she can devote time to looking after Hisako.
