Character Description: Rea Masaki
A cousin of Tenchi's, Rea Masaki was with the Masaki's when Tenchi's mother Kiyone had died. At the funeral, Rea was the first to notice that Tenchi had disappeared. Everyone there had left the funeral to search for the little boy. No one could find him until Rea remembered one place they didn't look. They found Tenchi alright... asleep at the entrance of Ryoko's cave, which was his favorite place to visit.
Rea then helped raise Tenchi soon afterward. She had learned to cook from Kiyone, and while Rea may have her own recipes and cooking style, the taste of the food was identical to Kiyone's. You could say that, in a way, Kiyone was still cooking, through Rea.
Years later, Rea had earned an important position with the Masaki family... so much so that, for some reason, the Japanese government had relied upon her to explain what exactly happened one night when the school Tenchi attended, the Masaki house, and the Great Seto Bridge had all been damaged or destroyed. She even had to make a report at the Japanese Imperial Palace in Tokyo! But when Tenchi later asked her why she had to make a report there, she was strangely quiet, insisting that Katsuhito should tell him. Does she more than she lets on?
