In a fit of angry spontaneity, Daikichi decides to take her in himself! But will living with this overgrown teenager of man help Rin come out of her shell? And hang on, won’t this turn of events spell doom for Daikichi'’s love life?!

Reviews
Taylor
It warmed my icy, 4chan-corrupted heart.
Corbyn
An interesting idea for a real life situation. The story progresses a little slowly but over all enjoyable.
Kimiko
Great artistry; the water colour appearance gave it a very sweet & calm nature, which perfectly reflects the personality of the child. The basis of the story is a bit odd ... but otherwise would appeal more to younger to much older female crowds. Amusing little moments support the story.
Maxy
Not what I expected but not bad.
Light Trainer (L.T.)
I actually find it very cute! ♥ I want to read the manga or see the next episode.
Oni
Love the story, artwork was impressive for the drama theme anime. I would watch future episodes for light entertainment.
SilkyC
I'm definitely interested in the story-line. The Animation is different for what I'm used to. But it is definitely something to watch.
Michael Eh?
Not for the action crowd, still this show sets it's own pace and the trip well worth it. The added sequence at the end gives a balance to the episode as being the bait to the next episode rather than the usual preview. Well thought out.

provided u like slice-of-life , then this may be the best anime you'll see this year.
Doug
There's hardly any story here at all, but as a minimalist attempt to create sympathetic characters, it's very successful. (Not recommended for diabetics, though.)
