* FreudianExcuse: Not exactly being Mother of the Year herself, it's eventually revealed that Seiko's own parents despised her, blaming her for their own miserable lives and [[spoiler:the death of her sister]]. On the way to [[spoiler: her sister's funeral]], Seiko's mother told her "You drained up everyone's happiness and took it for yourself.", which instilled in Seiko a tendency to try and please everyone around her at the expense of her own well-being. This lead to her crippling loneliness later in life which in turn lead to her domineering behaviour toward Seiichi, as her son was the only person she could impose her will upon without feeling like she was draining someone's happiness.

Added DiffLines:

* GoodParents: Seiichi's father is a little weak-willed, but is shown to be supportive and caring once he is free of Seiko's domineering personality. After Seiichi [[spoiler: is released from prison]], his father takes him in without complaint, and once he moves out he visits him regularly. These visits are some of the few bright spots in Seiichi's life, and once [[spoiler: his father dies, he almost immediately attempts to kill himself.]]
