She is the daughter of Seiji Shijima and Sui Shijima, the older sister of Enishi Shijima, the wife of Ayato Matsumae and the mother of Ohana Matsumae who is a struggling novelist and journalist where she soon enough elopes with her boyfriend to evade his debt and she leaves Ohana in the care of Sui, who claims to have disowned her daughter. She neglected Ohana as a child and raised her with the mentality of "relying only on yourself".
