Appearance and Personality
Tsukiko has short, light brown to blondish hair that is cropped up. She has small wrinkles here and there, but tends to have a cheerful expression, but that expression changes into rage at the drop of a hat whenever Mr. Tachibana (Tsukiko's ex-husband) is mentioned.
Tsukiko is a kind and warm woman who is pleasant to be around. She tends to think of others before herself, and almost divorces Akihito Fujii because she thought their marriage put a strain on their children. Again, her cheerful can turn into anger immediately whenever mention of her ex-husband is involved. She has long spoken ill of him to her girls, which had a negative affect on Rui Tachibana. However, Tsukiko has since been full of joy after meeting Akihito.
