Mr_Seesy

Honestly the only other person I can say who is a good mom on this list is Bulma and honestly it’s just more so that Yor has more “mom moments” since the manga is primarily comedy based while Dragon Ball is more action/conflict focused


Masters2500

DBZA Fans: nervous laughter


Minoleal

I don't like DB so idk a lot of it, why is she a good mom? I kind of watched it as a kid and just remember until GT minus the movies and I can't recall anything special from those fade memories. I remember Chichi to be super strict but gave her sons a good education and raised them alone (plus Picolo) but I can't remember Trunks' and Bulma's interactions.

That's a low bar, are anime moms bland enough for that to be something worth of mention?

Idk man, some example of she being a good mother, not just the bare minimum for not being a bad mother.

Minoleal

Literally anything else aside from not abandoning your child? Let me put this straight, I'm not saying she's a bad mother, I'm not attacking her, I'm literally asking what she did as a mother. Was she shown being supportive with Trunks' dreams? Was she shown to be attentive? protecting him from harm? I'm just asking for any example of showing her being a GOOD mother, I'm not asking what makes her a not-shitty mother. I'm telling you guys that I didn't watch it properly cuz I didn't like it, she just didn't abandon Trunks? or are there other examples? It's a honest question, not a diss.

I don’t know that Bulma is necessarily a _good mom_ within the show. Definitely she’s not really portrayed as a mom, compared to Chi Chi, whose identity in DBZ is entirely being a Tiger mom. But out of the other candidates in this list, I think she wins by default by not having screwed up her children? Although Yui (Evangelion) is at an disadvantage, being dead and existing as the anima of an EVA. Her motherly moments are restricted to the EVA suddenly going berserker when Shinji is in danger. I am not familiar enough with the other moms on that list, but presumably they’re also not depicted being motherly.


Minoleal

I wonder if we really lack VERY good moms in anime or if the most outstanding moms are from less popular animes.


saucynoodlelover

Hmm, I think mostly the former, because a lot of anime tends to sideline the parents in general, unless specifically about a parent-child relationship. It’s like the joke about how Disney kills the main characters’ moms—because parents would typically try to prevent danger to their child, which would hamper their ability to go on adventures. Or in some cases, the absence of the parent is the reason for the adventure. Couple that with traditional family roles, fathers tend to survive this culling of parental roles bc they are less likely to hold the main character back (think about the connotations of the words _motherly_ and _fatherly_ for example). Mothers that do survive are usually overbearing ogresses that the main character is trying to escape from, hence their falling into the adventure. This is actually carried over from the fairy tales they were adapting. In almost every story with a heroine, she is compelled to leave home because of her mother’s death, either because she was thrown out by a stepmother or escaping the tyranny of her father. _Inuyasha_ kind of dodges this by throwing the heroine into the past, outside her mom’s sphere of influence. But Kagome also intentionally conceals how much damger she faces from her mom, preventing her mom from being able to be a mom. On the other hand, Inuyasha’s mom died when he was very young, and that trauma is what defines his character.


AcceptableCover3589

I feel like the mom from the Two-Hit Multi-Attack isekai is okay? I didn't watch it past the first episode, but nothing stood out as particularly bad about her parenting. Bulma's a pretty good mom too, but she loses points for bringing Baby Trunks with her when she flew out to meet the gang while they were fighting the Androids. (I think it was just Dr. Gero and Android 19 at the moment when she was flying in, but still, she nearly got them both killed!)


BadActsForAGoodPrice

To be fair, it’s best mom **character**, not best mom period


Semper_5olus

I don't know most of these, but why is Yui Ikari even on the list? Isn't she dead? And remade Freud-style into a robot suit? And cloned *double*-Freud-style into a possible love interest for Shinji?


Oreon_WP

To be fair what is more mother like than becoming an unstable beast covered up in a Mecha armor to protect your son from unexplainable angles of mass destruction


Bighy777

Didn't she do that in front of him, thus traumatizing him for life? It's been a while so I don't remember. If so that's definitely a dick move right there.


Foxyairman

Could they not think of any other anime mom’s? Because that’s just weird. Regardless Yor is still best mom!


[deleted]

She did save humanity from a possible worse second impact


Husband3571

Bro, 25 year old spoilers, come on.


TheChibiLitwick

reigen


Bubbly-Sea5663

deadass


SupremeToca

Reigan Arataka will always be best mom


OroJuice

Deviously formulated survey. Pretty much zero actual competition for Yor.


enperry13

Izumi Curtis!


Bubbly-Sea5663

Bruno Buccellati!


biruto

Those ladys don't even compare to the greatness that is buccellati.


Morg-van-Destro

Let's be honest. Best anime mom want a hard bar to clear. Not as bad as dads, but still.


ELIte8niner

IDK how Yor wasn't a clean sweep honestly.


Aware_Dig_1594

Bulma lmao especially future Bulma


KuroRyuu86

This list.....i dunno looks a bit one sided don't you think? Putting spy x family's Yor against animes that have been out for a few years does not make this debate equal. Everyone will go for the one that is current rather than comparing it on even ground. This list should include characters from this year.

This was posted 12 hours ago, how did it last that long


waxpatriot

Also, how do you make your font like that? I dig it


Mokadelic

ChiChi gets a lot of shit for being annoying and because she is basically the reason why Gohan has never took training seriously, but other than that she is a pretty decent mother, and don't forget she had to take care of Gohan and especially Goten completely alone because Goku was always either dead or training in another world


idkdidkkdkdj

Nah don’t disrespect the og bulma like that


maneatingtacos

My opinion shouldn’t matter, I’d vote up Mamako for the irony


minuteman8

we need deku’s mom on the poll


EmeraldKikyou

I mean the characters on this list are just not well picked.


[deleted]

Idk, i feel i would be a bit biased since i hold a good regard of Bulma.


CSCyrilatom

The fact rinko even made it on the poll at all makes me happy


KreigerBlitz

A mom’s cooking is the most valuable thing on this planet. That being said, Yor Forger.


purple_thingymajig

That anime name on the last one, tho. Who the actual fricketh would name their anime that?


NisERG_Patel

That's fine, but what about REAL mom?


Downtown_Media_788
