Biography[]

Shinobu holding a young Goro in the past.
Years ago, Shinobu Watari was the mother of Goro Watari until she was presumed dead after disappearing in a mysterious accident. In fact, she was kidnapped by the Neo-Human Empire for her psionic abilities and converted into the Mutant Creature Rose Banbara.
Years later, when Goro was an adult, the Rose Banbara was sent after scientist Dr. Ishikawa, who was researching a way to enable humans to survive should a famine occur. The Rose Banbara started by entering his residence and forcing his daughter, Noriko, to give up his location. After Noriko told her where her father was, the Rose Banbara knocked Noriko out and went after the professor. However, Goro and Gosaku happened to come across Noriko and learned where the Rose Banbara was heading. Goro was able to intercept Rose Banbara before she could kill the professor and became Inazuman to fight her.
After their fight left both of them forced out of their transformations, Goro awoke and found Shinobu lying on the ground, unaware she was the Rose Banbara. After Shinobu awoke, Goro recognized her as his mother and the two reunited. As the two walked back to Goro's college dorm to catch up, Goro asked Shinobu what she had been doing in the years they had been apart, only to learn much to his horror that his mother had become a Neo-Human. Shinobu attempted to persuade Goro to join the Neo-Human Empire but Goro refused and proclaimed she was not his mother. Emperor Banba then appeared and stated she was, but Goro refused to believe it and thought it was a trick by him, only for Banba to reveal that Shinobu held the other half of the rose necklace she had given Goro as an infant.
Distraught by what he had heard, Goro fled the scene, only to go to reluctantly confront Rose Banbara again after she attacked his friends. Goro continued to express his disbelief that Rose Banbara was his mother, only for Shinobu to reveal she had the same rose-shaped birthmark that Goro did on his left arm, confirming she was his mother. However, Goro then realized that Shinobu must be being mind controlled by Banba through a circuit implanted in her Mutant Creature form and found his resolve to fight her to free her from her brainwashing. Becoming Inazuman, Goro defeated Rose Banbara and saved his mother, only for Banba to then activate a bomb he had placed in her as a failsafe. After pushing Goro out of the way of the explosion, Shinobu looked at her son's face one more time before passing on.
