<p>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.</p>

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