The Widow was the second wife of Yuzuki Sakutarō, before he died. She was forced to put on a lot of perfume, because her husband did not like her "scent". By her own admission, she had stolen Yuzuki from his first wife, Toshiko Katsuragi, who demanded a large sum of money and a mansion in compensation. She also claims that Toshiko came to her while still married to Yuzuki and said she wanted to wash her hands of him. According to the police report, she was the first to discover the deceased and partly rotten body of Toshiko, but did not report it to police.

Darker than Black
It has been 10 years since Heaven's Gate appeared in South America and Hell's Gate appeared in Japan, veiling the once familiar night sky with an oppressive skyscape. Their purposes unknown, these Gates are spaces in which the very laws of physics are ignored. With the appearance of the Gates emerged Contractors, who, in exchange for their humanity, are granted supernatural abilities. In the Japanese city surrounding Hell’s Gate, Section 4 Chief Misaki Kirihara finds herself at odds with an infamous Contractor codenamed Hei. Called "Black Reaper" in the underground world, Hei, like his associates, undertakes missions for the mysterious and ruthless Syndicate while slowly peeling back the dark layers covering a nefarious plot that threatens the very existence of Contractors. From the mind of Tensai Okamura comes a sci-fi thriller taking the form of a subtle exposé on a war in which political positions and justice have no sway—a war waged exclusively in the shadows.
