History

Bloody Roar 1

Mitsuko is a Zoanthrope who lived amongst the humans with her daughter, Uriko, keeping her Zoanthropy a secret. Uriko began to show the potential for becoming a Zoanthrope and became the target of the organisation, Tylon, who wanted to create their own army of beast soldiers. Uriko is kidnapped by the organisation for their experiments. Enraged, Mitsuko pursues Tylon relentlessly so she can rescue her daughter and return to their peaceful life.

Personality

Mitsuko is a no nonsense woman. She won't let Uriko get away with too much. It's mentioned in later games that Uriko is kept under curfew. She is a serious woman, though she has a very loving heart, doting very much on Uriko and Alice.

Endings

Bloody Roar 1

Mitsuko is reunited with her daughter. Uriko wails in her mother's arms as Mitsuko cries with relief. She tells her daughter they are going home now. And the pair return to their normal lives. Mitsuko is preparing food one morning. She calls upstairs to Uriko, hoping she is up and ready for school. Though on inspection, Uriko is still tucked up in bed. Mitsuko flings back the covers, demanding Uriko get up.

Trivia

*Some of Mitsuko's moves are re-used in Stun's arsenal of moves.
*Mitsuko is only playable in "Bloody Roar 1", though she makes a cameo in "Bloody Roar 2" in Uriko's story mode. She is mentioned now and then through the rest of the series in Uriko's story.
*Mitsuko is an interesting character design for a fighting game as she is not overly attractive and overly butch. A stark difference when compared to other female videogame characters in fighting games and videogames in general.
