Venus Kamiyama

Venus Kamiyama (神山 ビーナス Kamiyama Bīnasu) is the wife of Osamu Kamiyama and the mother of Misa Kamiyama, Samatarou Kamiyama and Meme Kamiyama. The goddess of love appears as a beautiful woman, who does not quite act her age and loves playing around with her children and husband. She manages to frequently embarrass her son Samatarou when doing so, since she tends to engage in cosplay and has made it clear that she'd engage in casual nudity as well, if Samatarou were not so dead-set against the idea. Venus seems to have a slight complex about her age and appearance, as she can go ballistic when being addressed as 'old lady' or 'grandmother' and is easily distracted from the topic if she becomes suddenly worried about her age and looks. Additionally, Venus has displayed great jealousy whenever it seems like a girl might be stealing 'her Samatarou-chan' away from her, even when that someone might be Tenko. Despite her sillier traits, Venus displays considerable flexibility, compassion and wisdom when the need arises. When she was temporarily human, her personality was completely opposite, now cold and distant from her children.

In Kamisama Kazoku Z, she becomes the "High goddess" (大女神様 Ōmegamisama) but there are no changes from the original series.
