| I didn't like the pace from episode 2, but the pace now is right on. I liked this episode a lot, and it was nice to see Daikichi and Rin relating with other people and with eac other. |
| this episode was so sweet. i loved her interactions with the family <3 so her mother's the maid? ...a little awkward, but can't wait to find out more. the beginning had me crack up laughing. Rin: Am I going to die too? Daikichi: Hah? What are you talking about? You're only 6 years old! Here, lemme prove it to you! *throws Rin into ceiling* Daikichi: See? You won't die That easy! XD |
| The theory that if grown-ups are sad, the children think they're mad at them seems logical to me. |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| Usagi Drop fits so perfectly into the noitaminA timeslot it's almost scary. Perfect and very realistic episode once again ! |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| I always feel like I'm going to melt after each episode because of the warm and fuzzy feeling I get while watching. XD Anyway, I can actually relate to this episode, I vividly remember thinking about dying too when I was in very early grade school and a bit older than Rin. Monad said: I believe there is a good possibility Rin isn't even actually related to Daikichi. His grandfather may well have started taking care of her after her mother left her there. She could have been going there to clean bringing her child along or even staying there taking care of the house but she left and let her child there. And that could cause problems later for him being able to keep her. You may be on to something and yes, I agree that it could be a good possibility. It also frightens the hell out of me because of the consequence of that possibility you also pointed out. >_< |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
BloodReign71 said: Hmm maybe, but i can understand why she's bad to rin. Who will want to have a kid with an old man that's going to die? Obviously force into it...or just for the money?I kinda don't want them to find the mother, it may turn out ugly, like the mother from Shigofumi, a bitch. |
| i love this anime so far. Rin is very cute for a young girl and I wish she was my daughter lol. Daikichi is an awesome dude that wants to take car of her and will sacrifice himself to make her happy. |
| I really like Usagi Drop. The Animation is really neat and the way it feels so real is amazing. I hope it stays this way. |
| this feels like it could be one of the best series of the year 5/5 |
 |
| LOL at when Daikichi hit Rins head against the ceiling. Another very nice episode. Still holding strong as my fav of this season. |
 |
| Heartwarming. I am very much enjoying this series. |
 |
| wow i love this anime, in the future, i'd so want a cute little daughter like Rin :3 |
| I love this anime, everything as a reason behind it and it makes sense when you piece it together - The relationship between the grandparents and stuff made me smile that was sweet. -I think Daikichi is doing well a parent and to see the bond between him and Rin grow made me wanna have a kid ._. so badly for some reason. |
 |
| This is so dawwwwwwwwwwwwwwing |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Such a cute episode again. This a show I look forward to just like Steins Gate and Nichijou. |

| Great interaction. Daikichi's family is finally starting to worm up to Rin |
Robbini said: They were actually exasperated at her during the funeral and she knew. So yeah she remembered "this people don't like me". Of course she's a kid so a good treatment and entertainment from them was enough for her to realize they weren't mad anymore.The theory that if grown-ups are sad, the children think they're mad at them seems logical to me. vincir said: Better than AnoHana IMO. Unlike AnoHana, Usagi Drop flows naturally without any forced drama or contrived situation so far. But yes, after Fractale and Hourou Musuko's dissapointments, Noitamina has certainly recovered. I still wished they'd stop their current 11 episode + 1 special trend.three episodes judgement: this anime is very good, and it has potential for high rank, theme are good and nice, plot is enough linear, but I think and hope it will do some hit because of there are only 11 episodes.... after AnoHana Noitamina got another quality anime and I think this is the better of this summer season.... |

Robbini said: The theory that if grown-ups are sad, the children think they're mad at them seems logical to me. Same. It opens up the possibility that Rin's mom didn't actually hate her too. |
 |
| i love the realism in this, and this show makes me feel really good. great show. :) it doesn't have me jumping out of my seat to watch the next episode, but that's only because slice of life shows tend to be so slow. |
| Amazing episode. I am warming up to this anime. Great so far. |
brinan said: Very good anime so far, makes ya feel all warm and fuzzy doesn't it? Nice ending for this episode too :) Still some more drama in the future figuring out what kind of person Rins mother *really* is, but Daikachi is doing well imo! ps. Rins very very cute :D this ep yet again will cause me to look forward for the next one. <3 |
| This anime is so sweet and funny!! Really one my favorite! Wonderful episode! 5/5 |
| Great episode. So far a terrific adaptation of the manga. |
 |
| im calling this best show of the season hands down ~~ |
| So it was the maid. Daikichi is a really nice guy though and knows where to set his priorities. |
| This anime really tugs at your heart strings <3. Every episode makes me love it even more. |
| Good development episode. It sorta pulled back the initial view that the family were all selfish retards. Though Kazumi is still a pain in the ass. I liked it when Daikichi and his dad were talking in the kitchen and even the dad admits Kazumi is a brat. I see Rin knows how to win brownie points. LOL "your not old enough to be a grandma." I sorta figured from the start the Mother would be someone that hung around Grandpa. I guess it's the maid. great episode. Someone on another BB'forum said it best. "This show leaves you with a stupid silly grin on your face every time you watch it." I'm in total agreement. |
| I can't even explain how heart-warming and just pure lovely this anime is so far. I'm enjoying every second of it. I really like how people act their ages, unlike in many other anime. |
| I really like this episode. Dakichi parents are beginning to play and take care of Rin "You not look like a grandma, so your an aunt" I really like that part |
| A very very good anime so far 5/5 Rin soooo cute!! I liked the part were she was worrying about if she will die or Daikichi will die right in front of her and Daikichi said he wont die until shes a young lady. I predict Daikichi will get very sick from smoking and have to go to a hospital and Rin will be freaking out and be crying a lot because she thinks he will die.... Hopefully im wrong |
| Lovely episode again :) Daikichi's mother was easily enchanted by Rin, it was so sweet~ |
 |
| Good thing Daikichi's parent's are on board now. |
| - It's nice that Daikichi's parents are on board now. - Still a sweet anime. |
| This series is soo good. It warms the cockles of my heart. This is pure speculation on my part, but I'm sure Daikachi's grandfather isn't actually related to Rin, rather he took her in because her mother couldn't handle her.. (makes more sense then a 70-something year old producing an illegitimate child) |
| Nice episode--lots of adorable moments in this one. Full thoughts on the episode here on my blog. I'm liking how this show handles serious themes, such as death and what constitutes a family. Very sweet show. |
| lot sacrificed there glad daikichi's family accept rin |
 |
| Happy Daikichi's family came around and accepted Rin. It's heartwarming to see them getting along. Rin's really adorable. :3 |
| I like how this show deals with some of the aspects of parenting you wouldn't really think of until you experienced it. We all know its hard, but it's nice that they actually answered why - with details like the "Am I going to die?" question. And this isn't done in any in-your-face-morality kind of way either. So far this has been a perfect 10 for me...such a humble and beautiful anime. |
Han-yuu said: Daikichi is such a good guy. i wish if he could get a very nice girlfriend who accept Rin as her daughter. totally agree!!! also...Daikichi is an infinitely better father then Tomoya from Clannad (well..in the beginning anyways) xD |
| that's pretty sweet |
 |
| Rin's mother is the grandpa's maid, eh? Sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger. |
| "You're only 6, *Bam* my bad.. hehe" lol. Anyway, another great episode. |
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant. |
| I'm glad that Daikichi's parents eventually came to - in relation to taking care of Rin, I mean. Based on the fairly bad and selfish impressions they gave off in the first episode, you'd have thought them to be quite different than how they were in this episode. (Same for Reina... Can't believe she became friends with Rin, although I imagine that friendship demands more patience and tolerance from Rin's side of the 'friendship'.) Hm. So Rin's circumstances get a little bit more complicated. The grandfather kept his mistress as a maid...? Or does Rin just remember her mother as always doing the house chores? Did she even know that Masako was (and still is) her mother? o: |
| It's good that others are treating her nicely. |
