Synopsis
Having married Jobin, she appears to be part of the family. She was present during the family photo and was introduced by Norisuke Higashikata IV. She is usually seen carrying around her child, Tsurugi.
Shortly after a fire has ravaged the Higashikata family's orchard, Mitsuba arrives at the nearby university hospital to see her doctor about a problem she has had with her hearing that morning. Although the doctor claims she is perfectly healthy, Mitsuba says she can no longer hear out of her right ear. The doctor examines her, and finds that the part of her skull around her ear has turned to stone, and tells her she is perfectly fine. Mitsuba does not believe him, as she fell ill that morning and lost consciousness, but when she awoke she felt as if her right ear had turned to stone. She then explains how the doctor has helped her in the past, lifting her sagging breasts, but afterwards her teeth felt as if they were stone and she couldn't keep herself from drooling, forcing her to cover her mouth and not talk to others. And then when she had her teeth treated by the doctor, the issue with her ear began days later. The doctor assures her she is fine, but when she says she knows her son will say something when he sees her ear is now stone, the doctor makes a call, and offers one more treatment, for the price of 200 million yen. Later, while Yasuho Hirose is waiting in the hospital herself, she sees Mitsuba being taken to another room in a wheelchair, and that her ankles have apparently crumbled away, leaving only stony bones connecting her feet to the rest of her legs.
