Tsurumi's Grandmother

She is Tsurumi sweet and lovely grandmother. In the family she seems to be the only one that always accepted him for the "gift" (ability) he gained, helping him to living together this thing of his. She calls her nephew "Gin-chan" and is a very cheerful person. The funny grandmother is a medium and actually really has "powers", well at least she explains her abilities as high developed smell, hearing and view. She doesnt have any alien in her mind, she is just a special person. The grandmother often asked Tsurumi to bring her Komaki, 'cuz seems he talked to her about the girl, and the old lady was pretty curious to know her. Komaki meets her when she fear to be followed by a ghost. The granny likes Ikeno and help her to "escape from the ghost". She also explains her what exactly are (or not are) ghosts. Basicly she says that those "ghosts" are strong feelings that happen to stay in certain places, she calls those "stains", when a person feel sad and meet a stain full of sadness she will be followed by this and the feeling of the person being amplified. Of course negative stains are the worst effect that a person can be affected from. When those stains are caused by deceased people's feelings their power is even stronger and with a longer lasting. Komaki soon finds out that the little peluches, which Tsurumi always wins at the Ufo Catcher at the videogames, are used to "exorcise" those stains and later let them under an old tree. Old trees have a natural power to absorb and purify the stains and the peluches are used as unanimate objects to be used as containers. The old lady also, tells Komaki that Hana may not be a real alien, but to her at least is more similar to a stain. With her funny and tricky behaviour she succeed at letting Komaki sleeping in their home for one night, and using the excuse of the girl's terror for ghosts to make her sleeping near Tsurumi. She also tells to Komaki about Tsurumi's past, a sad childhood where people always looked at him in a bad way, only 'cuz as a child was simply trying to tell what his high developed hearing was able to hear even when he didn't want to. The day after she invites the girl to come back again, but this chance won't happen anymore. When she dies, her stain, percetible by its smell, brings Komaki to this old tree and will have the chance to say Tsurumi something in the very last moment. Her death was been predicted by months so she expected this and even prepared Tsurumi the best as she could by telling him so. The cause of death (probably a disease) was never really stated, same thing with her name: never revealed.
