Misaki Kagura is a supporting character in the anime Steel Angel Kurumi 2. She is the mother of the protagonist, Nako Kagura, and lives with her daughter at the Kagura Shrine, a temple that serves as the family home. Misaki is an adult woman with medium-length black hair and purple eyes. She often wears a casual, domestic style of clothing and is sometimes seen engaging in everyday household activities such as cooking.

Her role in the story is primarily that of a caretaker and a source of stability for Nako. She is a warm and caring mother who supports her daughter’s interests, including Nako’s passion for playing the cello. However, she also shows a slightly oblivious or distracted side; in one notable scene, she listens to music on a portable player while Nako is in distress, providing a moment of comic relief. Despite the extraordinary events that unfold around her—such as the arrival of Steel Angels Kurumi, Saki, and Karinka—Misaki remains calm and accepting, allowing the mechanical beings to live in the shrine without much fuss.

Misaki has no special abilities or combat skills; she is an ordinary human. Her motivations are simple: she wants her daughter to be happy and safe, and she trusts Nako to handle her own affairs. She does not deeply involve herself in the romantic or supernatural conflicts between Nako, Uruka Sumeragi, and the Steel Angels, instead leaving them to resolve their own relationships.

Key relationships include her daughter Nako, with whom she shares a loving and easygoing bond. She is also acquainted with Uruka Sumeragi, Nako’s childhood friend and neighbor, and she tolerates the presence of the Steel Angels in her home. Misaki’s development over the series is minimal; she remains a consistent background figure who embodies the normal, mundane world that contrasts with the fantastical elements of the plot. Her notable trait is her maternal patience and her ability to go with the flow, which helps maintain a sense of domestic calm amidst the chaos.
