| I was on the verge of dropping it last week but this episode was MUCH better than the first two. Guess it will become more like Usagi Drop from now on (or at least this episode seemed to indicate that). |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| 4/5 Good episode. |
HeavenlyBell said: Those malicious thoughts from the characters are just what I think are not good. Disagree. Fanservice here and there is a good non slice of life element. See what happen to Usagi Drop, is sell barely 1000 copies for BD. Usagi Drop was a commercial failure because slice of life and too much realism don't sell, people want watch things that don't happen in real life, people want fun and want dream. Papakiki should stay more close to the novel, show a bit of ecchi and comedy at the same time and less realism and slice of life, so Bds will sell more and the chance for a second season will increase. Remember that foreigner who watch this show and their opinion matter zero, what matter is japanese fandom and how much merchandise around this title they will buy. They already remove lot of fanservice compared to the manga, and was a bad move for a mediocre show like this (for mediocre i mean that is not bad but in not so original too to keep more fans interested in the long run). This is what i think. |

| I've got my perv goggles on for this show, and my siscon goggles on for Nisemonogatari. Aww yeah!! Not, I wish Hina's hair wasn't so big about the size of her body. That's the only thing that bothered me so far. I was confused about the bathroom delicacy scene too.. |
| Good episode but sad like the last one, though i doubt it will continue in this vain as it should be a comedy. Looking forward to the next episode and hope I Raika's in it <3 |

BTW you are wrong about the fan service. There is nothing denying they will put more of it or add scenes or specials. Look at Mashiroiro Symphony, towel on a girl and not towel with full blown view in the BDs? Could be possible for this series. Sora already has a version of her naked with details made by someone. So it comes down to this, how will the balance be affected exactly? |

So it comes down to this, how will the balance be affected exactly? Well fanservice =/= top 10 seller for the season, however fanservice does equate to decent amounts of sales for the most part. I know some do end up top sellers for their respective seasons (Infinite Stratos, Ro-Kyu-Bu, Dog Days), but they all had another factor as well that gave them top spots. Infinite Stratos: Charlotte enough said Ro-Kyu-Bu: Designed specifically for the otaku in mind especially for the lolicon types, novels sold extremely well and got awards. Character CDs sold extremely well. Merchandising is not as heavy as IS and Dog Days but it sells like hotcakes. Dog Days: Seiyuu factor (it had many top seiyuu that anyone in Japan and even the US will like), it also has a side story manga that sold extremely well, merchandising is heavy in this series. There's a heavy music factor in it too, with both OP and ED selling extremely well for months and Scarlet Knight got 96th in 2011's yearly Oricon ratings. |

| Going from a nice mid class family home to a cheap apartment can be a huge shock and it did seem like the girls where having some troubles with it. The place is big enough for one person but it's cramped for two are more people seems like the girls will have some adopting to do. And the same goes for Segawa he was used to having the place alone but now he has the girls around whats worse two of them are going to puberty which makes them even worse to deal with. Judging from his aunt's call Segawa didn't fully think this true yet which does mean he will have a hard time ahead of himself. What makes things worse is that he needs to complete his university which is almost a impossible task while raising three girls by himself. |
| I'm liking this anime in the same way that I like Kodomo no Jikan in the regard that it takes a fairly risque topic and instead of making it a fanservice fapfest, It actually makes a good plot out of it. |

Now....what sells 100% Fan service. OK! Let's continue with it. Don't get me wrong I got used to it. Does not mean I like how the industry changed from the 90s. Times has changed indeed, anime '90 was more original, but today everything is less original because everything is already explored in a way or another. Is a risk and difficult produce something original and less commercial. Fanservice is the only thing that can help to sell more, is because a lot of novels that don't have much fanservice in the anime version they have more. As i said before fans nowadays like less realism in anime but like more exagerated content. For this reason i think that remove ecchi from Papakiki and turn it like Usagi Drop will be a huge mistake, expecially can receive bad reputation from the novel/manga fans that will decrease sell of bds (and i'm not speaking about the lolis because they don't have much fanservice anyway, but more about Raika, if you read the manga and spin-offs you know what i'm talking about). I honestly prefer holy lights and black band knowing that they will be removed in the home video edition, instead of changing entire scenes completely. Well this is my POV, so if producers think that is better in this way good for them but i'm still skeptical. ps: Indeed KnJ is a great and deconstrction manga. Really like it. |

| Totally loved the episode but it left me wondering why isn't he sad even a little about his sister . I almost cried when Hina said aren't we picking Mum and Dad? Hina Kawaiiiiiiii |
| Damnit everytime Hina mentions the parents it just made me so sad, aww poor girls. Miu and Sora both started crying or became depressed too, just heartbreaking to watch that. Thanks to the aunt, now I gotta wonder what Yuuta is going to do about college. Still waiting for Raika to show up, I am veryyyyyyyyy interested in seeing what she's going to do lol. |
 |
| Well at least they're pretty much settled in for now, but it'll only get harder from here on. He'll need to work to be able to feed them. He and the girls also have to go to school. The lack of space and privacy is also going to be a problem sooner or later. For now everything is new and exciting, but when they'll have to live there for quite a while it'll become bothersome. Overall a pretty sad and heartwarming episode. Hina is so cute but I feel sorry for her as well, the kid hasn't got a clue. =( |
 |
(...) like Kodomo no Jikan in the regard that it takes a fairly risque topic and instead of making it a fanservice fapfest (...) Wait, what?I still can't get used to this character design. Well, as long as there's no more forced fanservice... |
Ii tenki desu ne... |

Well this is my POV, so if producers think that is better in this way good for them but i'm still skeptical. Mainly because they are in grade school. I will share something in regards to that. I read an article of a grade schooler being a prostitute and using dating sites. Ever since then, well grade school kids + ecchi is either for me ignored or plain annoying TBH. Also you are right about the industry and that is the main problem. Ideas and implementing them and most of all original works. |
| I love this anime so far, you can so tell that he loves the whole family thing. They're gonna be a good family :3 until something serious ruins their fun >.> |
 |
| SUch a sweet/touching episode :) <3 |
 |
| Freaking adorable. And horribly depressing. But I cant help but compare it to the manga... They just do things differently and it bugs me. The anime version is not really bad per se. In-fact it adds a few things I would love to see in the manga as well. however I wish they merged the ideas from both rather than have two almost completely separate views on the same world. To get the full story, I would recommend watching and reading this one. So far my preference is with the manga. However that is not going to stop me from downloading/making adorable animated gifs of the girls though （‐＾▽＾‐） 4/5 |

I will share something in regards to that. Who cares about RL matters? I've no problem with ecchi at all because is a fictional story with fictional chars in the first place so everything is ok. Just i prefer they keep ecchi like in the novel for better result in bds, so we can have more seasons. :) KirasNote said: Freaking adorable. And horribly depressing.

Indeed manga still superior to the anime. |

| "This house is as big as our bathroom!" Lol. Was touched by this, looking forward to more. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| Such a sad yet cute episode I'm loving this series, it's getting better and better. Hina ;_; |
 |
| Hina can read at 3? Damn. |

Yeah, I kinda got used to it as well, but that was just my wishful thinking saying that they should cut down on the ecchi thoughts. Well, to each his own, I guess.. :) I don't mind them showing off more flesh, I just wish they won't exaggerate the people's reaction. They are now a family in the first place. But that's just me. :) The scene where the girls are crying was soo touching. My mind was screaming, "What the hell are you standing there for? Embrace those girls, comfort them, let them cry on you!" GarLogan78 said: Hina can read at 3? Damn. And PLAY VIDEO GAMES. Don't forget about that.. lol... She is one smart kid! :) |

| This is becoming one of my favorite shows of the season, it's just so cute and I feel it's really good. |
 |
 -D'aww this anime is making me sad. -I love Hina! She's the only reason I'm watching this! But I can't but wonder why she gropes her mother's breasts O,o |

Yanoflies said: Yumekichi11 said: Yanoflies said: Well I for one though the entry of Nimura was more cool and funny in the anime version. Really. Thanks to you I picked the manga too. yes all of us read the manga... USE FRIGGIN SPOILER TAGS!!! ffs |
Edefrem said: But I can't but wonder why she gropes her mother's breasts O,o Just innocent touching really. When you take a bath with little kids, a lot of them tend to touch parts that they don't often see everyday, but they are just being curious You can say that it is a cute and funny side to them. Though that is just my opinion. ^^ Another reason would be for the fanservice. :) |
| Still looking for a signature. |
| Can somebody list the difference of storyline in manga/light novel? I'm curious :3 (use spoiler btw) As for the episode itself, it continuing in a good trend. Loving it so far |
| Most of the children in animes are annoying but Hina doesnt. Love her s2 |
 |
| Why would they bother branching from the real manga/novel storyline? Well it's not that i hate this new development in this episode but imo the original storyline is way better. I was hoping they'd combine all the different version of mangas with different character's point of view into one fine anime but it seems like its not going to be the way i hoped for. Regardless, that's still a good episode, hina was extremely cute. I wasn't expecting all that cuteness and i have to say hina is the reason why i find this slightly altered storyline amusing. We're into a quarter of the series already, i am curious as on how much will they be able to cover from the real storyline itself. Or will they branch out into their own new storyline halfway like what ao no exorcist does? Whatever it is going to be, i'm gonna stick to the end, this is actually one of the anime which i anticipated for the most in this season, i hope it wont turn out to be a lame one lol. |

I was hoping they'd combine all the different version of mangas with different character's point of view into one fine anime but it seems like its not going to be the way i hoped for. The anime is adapted off the LIGHT NOVEL, and I'm guessing that you've never read the novel, so no one knows how the story actually played out in the novel as manga adaptations sometimes change things around as well. Though it'd be hilarious if they animated the Raika spinoff, though it'd turn into a censored ecchi anime if they did. |
 Tonight... we are young... so let's set the world on fire, we can burn brighter, than the sun... |
| Still, the lighthearted atmosphere in face of having no proper parents bothers me alot. These girls just could get over it so quickly. I could see how the father was a bit too clingy and bothersome, while mother wasnt really related to them, but just to dismiss them so quickly for these happy smiley faces is just something anime can get away with. |
| I'm glad for the second part, they seemed unrealistically collected after the events. The scenes with Hina reminded me the times I had to take care of a neighbor's 3 year old kid, a very daunting task. 4/5. |
| It is a good thing, story-wise, that they are not yet over last episode's tragedy in just this episode. At first, I had feared that it would only take one episode for them to forget a tragedy of such a scale, but I'm glad it didn't turn out that way. It would have been completely unbelievable, otherwise. |
| What a dramatic turn of events, take the kids and run. And Nimura's running for bro of the year. This is such a weird anime. The atmosphere is very light considering how dark the situation is but the characters' fears, traumas and uncertainities, while played much much milder than they would realistically be, somehow remain believable and touching. And then there's the whole loli sexualizing thing that throws the whole thing off a bit. I'm curious to see how things go from here on since Yuuta couldn't realistically take care of all of them. I guess loli club will come to the rescue. |

| This Anime is just too good! And why don't they just use the washroom as a change room as well... |
 |
| Why was a three year old being allowed to cross the street, or indeed walk around at all, without someone holding her hand? I've known a lot of kids at that age, and they can't be trusted not to kill themselves in those situations. |
| Well they've arrived back to his place, it's still quite sad I wonder how he'll plan everything! |
 |
| I wonder how he will deal with sending them all to school. He must get some sort of child support money. |
