Mother Mutsuko Nigatawa
Mutusuko is Japanese from Tokyo. Mutusuko also plays the role of her characters' mother on PEN15.

Mutsuko approved since she admires her daughter and wants to assist her in her professional enterprise. She was part of the contract when the show was picked up, which she assumed was a one-time occurrence.
She is active on Twitter with more than a hundred followers and over twenty tweets.
