I also think she might be part of Asunaro. Probably a new character that we haven't met yet, but I do think we will get to meet her in the last part. Also, it's important to note that even &gt;!Gashu!&lt; seems to be working for Asunaro by force, so her being part of Asunaro wouldn't necessarily mean she's evil. I think she and Gin really do have a great relationship, but she was forced to put her child into the death game. (It would suck, though, if she turned out to not be nice and got Gin put in the game instead of herself.) Either way, it's probably gonna hurt… but I feel like it'll also be important to Gin's story.
