In Azumanga Daioh, Osaka sometimes dreams about Chiyo's father. In her dreams,
he's a strange being voiced by Wakamoto Norio, capable of levitation and
speaking in English, yet he claims to be a cat.

Is Chiyo's real father ever shown, or is this strange "cat" the only reference
to him in the series?

Was Chiyo's real father ever shown?


Her father was never really shown. However, they are at least alive, as Chiyo
talks to them when she comes home once.
