Mari Katsuragi

Mari Katsuragi is the wife of Keiichi Katsuragi, the biological mother of Keima Katsuragi and the adoptive mother of Elucia de Lute Ima who runs a café named Café Grandpa. Mari has orange hair that is normally tied up in a bun with bangs hanging on the right side, orange eyes and oval-shaped glasses, just like Keima Katsuragi and Denma Katsuragi. She normally wears a black shirt under her yellow sweater. She has also been seen wearing a white shirt under a black sweater. Ten years ago, Mari was shown to wear braids similar to Tenri's and she did not wear her spectacles before that. A short while later, Mari had her hair let down. Whenever Mari gets angry, she would let her hair down and take off her glasses. Mari generally appears in the guise of an ordinary Japanese housewife who runs a café while her husband works overseas. She is a loving mother who constantly worries about the future of Keima Katsuragi. She sometimes even has delusional nightmares about Keima marrying a cardboard cutout of a video game heroine and turning into a half-insane hobo. She is also very fond of her husband's "illegitimate daughter", Elsie. Before she was married, Mari was a frightening member of a motorcycle gang, where she was known as the "Snow Witch of the Mountain Pass". Whenever she is angry, she will revert to her previous violent personality. She is not a helpless woman despite adopting a very domestic personality, as shown when a storekeeper sexually harasses her which leads to her retaliating by brutally beating him up. Additionally she continues to maintain and ride motorcycles, which she views as a comforting habit that she uses to relax. Even though she was "betrayed" by her husband (who has actually done nothing), it is shown that she still loves her husband deeply. An example of this is when she immediately packs up and leaves for South America when Keima disguises his voice over the phone and tells her that her husband has had an accident. The results of this ruse have yet to be revealed.
