Admit it Garnt, Connor forced you to make this video 😂

ngl, Saitou Miyako is underrated as Mother. Taking care of 2 traumatised kids she adopted while stepping up as the CEO of Strawberry Production. She deserved some recognition.

Sachiko (Satoru's mom) in ERASED is clearly the best. She protects Kayo from worst mom and also takes care of Satoru and flexes his limbs while he was in a coma. Followed by Hana (Wolf Children) and Honda Kyoko (Fruits Basket).

Miyako in Oshi no Ko is the best mom in that series. I agree. She went from hating the kids to taking them in and loving them.

At the last bit, when the discussion was on kids being kids, I thought of Anya from SpyxFamily. She actually behaves like a kid. She only remembers stuff from her favorite cartoon, can't tell time, forgets or loses interest in things in a flash, and is pretty much just a kid. The mind reading just adds to it.

I think it's safe to say this was interpreted by the voters as a "Hottest" mums list

Actual best anime moms would have to include Hana from Wolf Children and Queen Hilling from The Ranking Of Kings.

Yassan from Toradora. Just thinking about the life she had faced over the 17-18 years of raising an absolute gentleman like Ryuuji, and all on her own warms my heart. One of my favorite moment in the series is seeing her return to her parents. In a moment under her parents’ gaze you can see her melt back into the runaway girl who left almost two decades ago. Then when her mother tells her what a wonderful boy Ryuuji is, she breaks down in a well deserved moment of emotional release of pride and acceptance. It’s the most moving scene in the series not structured around the High school romance, and probably beats all of them too.

When I think of a good mom my immediate thought is Hana from Wolf's Children. She's a great mother, some of those on the list are great mommies.

Gigguk: Mothers with jobs - I sleep Mothers who know that they belong in the kitchen - real shit

Honami is actually a high schooler in the game but she gives off huge mom vibes and she takes care of another character (Kanade, who is older than Honami by 1 year). She’s very kind and gentle while taking care of Kanade and Kanade’s friends often say that Honami is like Kanade’s mom now (Kanade’s biological mother died), so Honami is often portrayed as a mother figure in project sekai and some people even call her ‘Honamama’ Honami is also my favourite character why is she always so adorable

Subaru's mom deserves to be on this list

I would like to contest the opinion on Ai since she had some similarities to my own mom, which I think made her hit harder for me lol. My own mom was a single teen parent, and so I was often in the care of other relatives while she went through school and worked. I never felt neglected despite this though since anytime she was home, she'd make time for me. I barely noticed her absence bc I knew she cared about me, she was just busy. Ai, in my opinion, seemed to be the same case. Except she had some other set backs. She had no other relatives to rely on and live with, and leaving the industry suddenly would raise suspicion and possibly put the twins at risk. Not to mention she'd be out of a job for a while with two other mouths to feed, plus her own. Honestly, all things considered, I think Ai is a phenomenal mom. You can argue whether she's one of the best, but I don't think she's anywhere near a "bad" mom. Edit: why tf is Honami from project sekai on the list 💀 is there like an in-joke of her being a mom or was that just an error lol. She is indeed in highschool and not a mom lmfao Edit 2: (Oshi no ko spoilers for the 2 people who haven't watched ep 1 yet) Also to heavily clarify my mom is still alive 💀 realized that's probably a good distinction to make lmao. I'm just very grateful for her! And I think my relationship with my mom gave me a clearer(?) perspective on Ai as a parent.

24:00 The Medalist manga is great! I also love how the main coach character is 26 years old, considered "past his prime" for the industry, yet continues to find out that he can contribute, and can still accomplish so much. Just everything about his mental struggle with it is so good.

I definitely agree with Yor, I absolutely fell in love with her and she’s definitely one of the best anime moms (even though she’s not Anya’s birth mother I still like how much Yor cares about her) and plus she’s cute as hell and just great in general. Gotta love assassin mom, also a mom that I’m surprised wasn’t on here was Dahlia Ketchum from Pokémon because yes she does let Ash leave on a journey that takes the dude like 20+ years but goddamn is she still cute

If ever on Oshi no ko Miyako would be the best mom, she never left the twin after all these years.. I know at first she was threatened by the twins but after (*spoiler*) she can leave anytime but she actually stayed and loved the twins like a real mom. Plus have you seen her artwork goddamn momma..

Maquia from the movie Maquia is one of the strongest mother characters I've seen in anime. She raises an abandoned baby of a race (humans) that pillaged her entire village and left only a handful of her kin alive, the baby the grows up to be one of the most obnoxious kids in anime history, but she still cares for him, revolutionizes his perspective on unconditional love that makes him grow into a complete person, and then visits him at his death bed when he is old living with his descended family. Another example of how underrated that movie is.

The favorite moms things makes a lot more sense when you think of "favorite mom characters " insteado of "best moms", Hinata was a beloved character for decades before becoming a mom

waiting for best dads list featuring Gendo Ikari (for giving his son a chance to pilot a giant robot), Ging Freecs (for teaching his son independence) and Shou Tucker (for letting his daughter do some science with him)

the fact that Bulma isnt on this list is a straight up crime. Future Trunks is the goodest boy ever and she wrangled Vegeta and settled him down. God tier mom.

Now for the dad of the year, I can't put my paw on it

No one is really commenting that he hasn't watched Gintama?!? The embodiment of Anime hasn't seen Gintama? HOW?

Surprised Mamako Oosuki (from the MILFsekai) wasn't on the list. 2:43 Boruto's sister is named Himawari. And Hinata is one of the few people that actively disciplines Boruto (in the first episodes Boruto states that Hinata is *scary* when she is angry). Also, it's made explicitly clear in the anime that she is the one who wears the pants in the Uzumaki Household.

Moms that should have been included: Bellmere Dadan Otohime Ojiya Kyoko Honda Honorable mentions: Komi Shuuko Leonora Nakiri Lisa Lisa (most jojo moms for that matter)

Garnts editor has gotta be a big Nier fan, it has the music every video

I mean... Ai *did* do a fair bit in episode 1, like helping Ruby get over her fears of falling and clearly Aqua saw her as way more than just an idol but as the "light" of his world, in a way. That little moment before her end where she's clutching him and keeping Ruby away in the other room, lamenting that she can't be with them both as much as she wants... it hit hard, fam... it hit hard.

Best mom: Miyako Saitou (the adoptive mom in oshi no ko) Her character arc went from villain to a very supportive mom for Ruby and Aqua.

Should I be worried that I immediately corrected Garnt by shouting "Himawari!" But ive only seen like 10 or so episodes of Naruto's Son when it first came out before giving up?

“Barely there for her kids” It’s called work. You even said it. And she’s a single mother tf you want

Disagree on AI not being a good mom. She's a single parent with the father not providing any support of course she has to compromise. Hell episode 1 even showed her thoughts on money and why she wanted more. Not because she wants to spend for herself, but to give her kids an opportunity for a good future. She may not be the best mom but she's there for her kids when it counted.

I haven't seen Oshi no Ko yet, but any parent who works tirelessly to provide for their children, even if they don't see them much, is a great parent as far as I'm concerned. That's what it sounded like to me w hen Garnt explained it at least. Let me know if I'm missing any context, (I don't care about spoilers).

Yea as much i love ai and understand why she went to work, miyako objectively did perform the better role of a mom not only raising the children but also the business at the same time to take care of them financially. Shes underrated

Miyako isn't just the step-mother, she's the mother who stepped up.

Love the videos, Gigguk. I love you, Garnt. You always make my day!

This gigguk schedule be crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Sakura is kind of underrated as a mother, shes basically a single mother (yes Sasuke, fuck you) and even considering her personality, Sarada was raised pretty good, shes smart and polite and can even take care of herself alone which is a plus

Queen Hilling from Ranking of King's is the #1 mom.

Gigguk: The anime mom man

I loved Maquia so am stoked for that new movie, I'm down for more bunny girl, the portrayal of what cyberbullying did to Kaede to me was really compelling and seeing her journey to hopefully being healed and back in society should be a great journey, I've wanted to buy BGS blu rays but they're so expensive for the number of eps you get. To a western audience where you can get a lot more show for the same price it's a hard sell,

lol, the Shibuya Incident will be the nail in the coffin into making you a full fledged jjk fan

Can't believe Garnt is actually gonna read Umineko

Parents don't get a lot of air time, and when they do, I seem to be remembering single dads more. But here's a few: Nagisa's mom in Clannad, the mom in My Home Hero, and Tohru's mom in Fruits Basket

As much as I don't like MHA but the Mom of Deku is S Tier! She's a caring sweetheart that understands her Son!

As someone who watched Katanagatari when it was airing, with its 20 yo 1 hour long episode duration but releasing in around every month (from 2011 to 2012). If they released that way it would have still been better than just a long hiatus in between.

The slack notif at 0:22 is burned into my soul now thanks

the vomit scean got me traumatized as i was eating at that moment

4:23 I don't understand? Why is Honami a mom? this game is about *high-schoolers* and vocaloids, did I miss an event or something? Is this a metaphor for how she has a motherly kindness towards her friends? she's like 16 at the very oldest? Someone please help...

Wow Garnt really outdoing himself with the month old news, incredible

Connor's favourite gigguk video

Yor Forger is probably the best mom. She's very caring and scares away anyone that might harm Anya. Also, Garnt, why is Ai Hoshino crossed out? She actually cared for her children and wanted nothing more than to spend some quality time with them.

23:03 Dude I'm not kidding. When I heard "Bocchi the Rock" I went from almost lying in my chair to sitting straight up in a matter of half a second. It was like an Impulse.

You should rank your favorite anime movies of all time! I’d love that!!

Can't wait for Delicious in Dungeon

Kyoko Honda better be on there or I’ll fuckin’ riot!!

when i saw isabella i recoiled and started choking on my water

Lol uploading mother day's video on father's day 😂😂

I forgot this was about anime moms half way through

the tea kettle got me

I watched nisekoi season 2 before season one by mistake and I completely understood what's happening and you can legit do that.

Doing this on Father's day as well

Man… I love Fridays… It’s always Friday in some other parallel universe

This was definitely definitively one of the anime mom lists of all time…

bro the bunny girl movie was SO GOOD WDYMMM

Jjk 2 is being directed by my man Shota Goshozono aka Gosso, i think its in really good hands since most season 1 staff are returning too.

These Slack notifications in the background of the video constantly remind me that it's not good to watch KZfaq while working... Watched all of it though, thanks for the content xD

What I’m really excited for is for the new season of link click. That Cliff Hanger needs to be resolved.

Thank you Garnt for introducing me to "Alice and the Illusion Factory" because now I will not miss the sheer amount of beauty and emotions when it comes out.

The final finale will finally come to an end.

Truly the peak of anime content lads..

The video comes out a day before Father's Day though.

for me bellemere from one piece or yukihira's mom from shokugeki no soma are really great moms that helped the characters grow stronger!

Mito Freecss on the next list you heathens!

Sachiko Fujinuma from Erased is goated

This video is CdawgVA approved

we expect a father version of this for father's day!~

Bruno bucciarati is the best mom ever

I cant believe nobody talking about queen hiling. Then again, evil vibes was put to start. Bojji and Deida ftw

how to tell when connor suggests the video subject

Thx for the news Garnt.

I kinda feel like people were really just sorta naming any moms they could _think_ of for this list. But the more I think about it, I think that may be to some extent because mothers sorta get the short stick in representation in a lot of anime. A lot of the time, they're just background characters or plot devices (or already dead). I mean, I know tons of animes about really good single fathers, but can't think of a single one off hand about a really great single mom. Which seems kinda screwed up, now that I say it. There are a few I can think of which I think do deserve to be on a list like this, and maybe you might want to consider if you're putting together your own: * Sachiko from Erased (I mean, it's really hard to beat "best mom" title against someone who spent _literally years_ taking care of her comatose son all on her own in her tiny apartment while also juggling a job and her own life, even regularly talking to him and playing him his favorite music, etc, and likely would have continued to do so for the rest of her life if she'd needed to) * Shoyo's mom from A Silent Voice (or really, Shoko's mom too, for that matter) * Midoriya's mom from My Hero Academia * Hana from Wolf Children (I just realized that three of the above are actually single-mom stories, so I guess there are at least a couple) Edit: I just thought of a couple of others which I think also deserve to be on a list like this, even though they aren't technically _biologically_ mothers, because really being a mom isn't just about who you gave birth to: * Izumi from Fullmetal Alchemist * Akari from March Comes in Like a Lion * Touko from Natsume's Book of Friends

Ai Hoshino might not be the best mom in anime but her presence definitely had an enormous impact on Oshi no Ko. Kinda like how Thors shaped the story of Vinland Saga

“A big problem in Shonen is that many lean too much into explanation of the action” Me, reading the current chapters of JJK: “Yeah… ‘bout that…”

My reaction when I saw Honami from prosekai: wait isn't she a high schooler?

Main Character from Ita Kiss should be up there

Posting this on father's day is crazy

Finally man of culture is back and he don't lost his trash taste

good seeing this on fathers day, i feel heard as a solo dad of 3

I just want that Zutomayo shirt honestly

Chi chi better be on the top 10 best moms

It's not anime without the mothers

I think for me, top mom in anime would be Ash's mom from Pokemon. just super supportive and caring.

Whenever Garnt mentions Love Hina I feel validated.

To be fair to Mrs. Yaeger: he wasn’t on path to commit the big G until after she died

They forgot Delia ketchum (survival span of 25 seasons still alive)

HONAMI REPRESENT!! TAKING CARE OF DEPRESSED KANADE MAKES HER BEST MOM

That thumbnail's reverse checkmark 💀

I wanna hear Garnt talk about the new Black Clover movie if he watches it.

GARNT'S AND SYDNEY'S BEST ANIME MOMS LIST WHEN??? SLAMS MY FISTS ON THE TABLE

I feel like Mamako from Do You Love Your Mom and Her Two-Hit Multi-Target Attacks got robbed here lol

While seeing this vid the only thing that comes to my mind is "CONNOR would love this..." XD
