Relationships

Mei is her daughter.
 * Mei Higurashi


 * Towa Higurashi

Towa is her adoptive daughter.

Moroha is her niece-in-law. They first met when Moroha was 14 years old and she visiting the modern era for the first time. Together with Sōta, Moe suspects that she may be Kagome's daughter. The aunt is quite friendly to her newfound niece, but it seems that Moe is really confused by Moroha's primitive habits (for example, appearing naked after a shower in front of other people).
 * Moroha

After traveling to the modern era, Setsuna is taught how to play the violin by Moe. She quickly excels at playing it to the point where Moe considers her to by a prodigy.
 * Setsuna

Trivia

 * Moe's trait of always having her eyes closed is similar to Tamako from another of Rumiko Takahashi's series.
 * Sōta had told her at some point about Kagome's adventure, given how rather quickly she accepts the craziness of Moroha and Setsuna's arrival.
