Happy Mother's Day From the Anime World! Part I

posted on by Ken Iikura-Gross
Here's to all the mothers out there

Mother's Day, the day people apparently make the most long-distance calls. And why wouldn't we? For many of us, our mothers birthed us, raised us, and generally loved us. Even in the anime and manga world, mothers are important characters. So, what sorts of messages were there to our mothers across the anime and manga world? Here's a small sample.
