| Yup. I love that it's keeping the charm of the manga fairly well so far. Good stuff! Nice and heartwarming. |
 |
| Rin is really cute when she makes those faces. |

Rin: "Skirts aren't allowed at nursery school." Daikichi: "Ah, I see... Nursery School!?" Ahaha, I love that. ^_^ And I had to laugh at the "I'm Very Very Happy" shirt in that chaotic store. This show is so cute it's criminal. I'm watching the whole thing smiling. Favorite show of the season with Ikoku Meiro closely behind. |

| Hah Rin is such an awesome character. |
 |
| I FREAKEN LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! *O* I felt so bad for Rin though, I know what it feels like to be the last one picked up ;___; Daikichi needs to fix that! >.< 100/5 episode and lol @ the ending with the sweat XD!! This show is so realistic!! You would never see that in any other anime! |
| Rin and Daikichi are both great characters. Such a sweet and funny episode. |
 |
| Excellent. And also, time passed very fast. Prodution IG is realy put much effort and care in the anime. Audio visual is fantastic, and i need said, the script surprise me. In the manga, Daikichi did the promise that he don't get late, but he brake it. But, in there, he don't apologize, at least don't the way he did he. Its great sensitivity of the screenwriter. I already can imagine the and of this. Anime should be at end of volume 4, and, probably show some of the final chapter of volume 5. |

Iilia said: Blackbird said: NAME!Of course Daikichi sure need help, remember I saw a drama similiar to this one hehe Please. :D The drama is "Mother". Serious dude, you can't even imagine imagine how spectacular this dorama is. Got to D-Addcits and get it. Are 11 episodes long, and starring by the same Aishima Mana of the live of Bunny Drop. Worth the effort to translate it into portuguese. |
|
| Watching this anime makes me feel really warm inside. I can already tell it's most likely the best anime of the season. Also, having watched this, I will also wait for the movie adaption of the manga that will be released in august. Too bad I have to wait for the DVD to be released and THEN for the fansubs... also, the scene at the end was so funny and cute and sweet at the same time, I almost got a sugar rush right there. |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Incredible, how heartwarming this show is. But please, Reina doesn't need so much screentime :/ |
| It's sweat! >:| |
 If you don't remember something, it never happened. If you aren't remembered, you never existed. <3 |
| This anime really awesome! :> from ep 1-2 still gives me a smile on my face and I do think it's a heartwarming anime. love how they express themself too, anyway: another great episode for this week. <3 |
| Her expressions are so simply drawn...and still it's so much more cute than most moe-stuffed anime-girls... Really, really cute episode, loved most of her expressions, like when she's on the bed when Daikichi's phoning or when she's embarrassed etc. And I really liked the slow-paced-ness, perfect anime to relax :3 |
| Rin's face when she's angry is simply adorable, ha ha. It's nice seeing Daikichi taking his father role seriously. |
| Ara ara. |
| Swirly unibrow on Rin! XD |
| This is the most adorable, heart-warming anime I've ever seen. Why do I feel something bad or sad is going to happen though? |
 |
| looking at this you would think most people would just pick up and run way. and some do. but there are others who have an even harder time with their kids and still they manage. there is a lot more to this show that just some random dude who adopts some random kid on a whim. that's why this show is probably a lot better than it is. |
| The script is really good. Addressing a problem one at time without fuss surrounding them. Interesting how a simple scene as the mother of Daikichi deliver belongings of Rin and your medical record function as well in animation. In the manga, the chapter opens with this scene but the anime leave this scene for the end. This direct expectations for the next episode, instead of leaving us with expectations about it while watching this episode. The interactions of the two were also excellent, it was quite natural. And this is the lack of naturally i see in the film's trailers, the animated Rin is a better Rin than the one of manga up to this point. Indeed, the child seyuu made a difference. Also in the script, good to see that have already begun to enter the atmosphere of the home life of Haruko. Talking about the animation, it's not only technically good, I think it is photography that makes a difference. Care as the movements of the characters are animated, the camera catches the whole movement and is careful to show certain facial expressions. Where do you see that this is a mature series is when Daikichi to get on the train, we see his foot stepping on the bandwagon and balance it. Also the reality of scenes like the Rin asleep standing in the street. Sensational. |

Only thing "bad" about Usagi Drop is some choices of autor in the middle. Fortunately, it took, maybe, just the volume 5. After that, the series back to top. |

Lita-Taka said: Why do I feel something bad or sad is going to happen though? i feel the same. :[ whenever i watch shows/movies about adoption, the adoptive parent tends to die/get sick somehow??? IDK FFFFFF when i watched the episode & saw how difficult it is for daikichi to constantly juggle between rin & work, i couldn't stop worrying over his physical condition. :I /worrywart, derp. BUT IT'S STILL AS CUTE AS EVER. rin has the best :I face fffffff. |

aznkirby890 said: This is one incredible show. That is all. Indeed! Spitting truth, its too cute and heartwarming. |
| Rin is so adorable whenever she makes those faces, reminds me kind of the Peanuts comic. The scene when Daikichi made his pinky promise was so touching and when he broke his promise he ate all those paper needles or w/e they are lol. So far i'm enjoying the anime as I am with the Manga. Why does Usagi Drop remind me of Pursuit of Happyness except Daikichi isn't Will Smith and he's not homeless? Lol |
| Loved it. I liked those extra words to the pinky promise. Sweat....that's funny Rin... |
I am a sucker for romance!!!! ] |
| Rin is definitely adorable, but i feel bad for her in certain scenes., She just looks so sad. She may be the only character in the history of anime that makes me want to protect her, for that i give this a 5/5 well, that and the great anime itself. |
| Good episode. Lol at the final part xD |
| This show is thoroughly enjoyable. It's cute, funny, heart warming, and just perfect. I love the watercolor art, it's a great touch. The OST is very good from what I can tell so far. Nope, nothing bad to say about this show at the moment. |
| Daikichi and Rin's relationship is soooo adorable! The piggy-back, pinky swear, eating the origami for breaking the promise & working like crazy but not even a single *tsk* whilst with Rin. Daikichi is surely someone who captures the heart. And the OST is so perfect! Don't know why, but I feel like some parents might come to adopt Rin at the end Lita-Taka said: Feel the same way. My guess would be Rin getting adopted by a homely family and Daikichi giving her away as it is for her best. Ah, I don't want to see him cry.Why do I feel something bad or sad is going to happen though? |

Leticia said: I loooooooooooove this show! <333 This This is just so cute in so many levels <3 it really makes me wonder what kind of parent i may turn out to be and i do hope i'm as good as Daikichi :D |
 |
| Such a great episode, found myself saying aww a lot. |
| Best episode of the season hands down. |
| My heart melted. Both Daikichi and Rin are such heartwarming characters. And yes, there will be a lot of sweat in the future.... |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Holy Shit. There's not even a HINT of moe or some cliche overused fluff and I found myself with the biggest smile at Rin's cuteness... Story is advancing quite well and according to the manga. Can't wait for the next episode. |

 |
| rin is so cuteee ! so far this show has to be my favorite one this season =) |
| lolz I am totally sure that it was sweat,x'3 |
| Wow, this has the same fuzzy cozy feeling of happiness from kimi ni todoke but is fueled by a different kind of love; parental love. Also VERY GOOD JOB for Daikichi when he stopped smoking for Rin.  It's so cute!!!  |
| This anime is good. I go into more detail here on my blog, but I have to say, this story was well-written, despite its simplicity. The bit where Daikichi takes a smoke and watches the trail of smoke drift toward Rin's stuff--that little sequence conveyed a lot, and all without saying a word. I really like how Usagi Drop handles character expressions. The art style in general just lends itself well to the tone and atmosphere of the series. I also like that both Daikichi and Rin are very easy to like, and easy to relate to. I can just imagine how a Hollywood movie of this kind of story would have a sarcastic, helpless adult and an ornery, obnoxious child for the two roles. (AKA pretty much the opposite of what we have here.) |
| Good lord, that was absolutely delightful. Some of the best character interaction I've seen in a long time. Utterly heartwarming. 5/5. |
| good show :) |
 |
| rins facial expressions are sooo cute :3 |

| This anime is sooooo good. I loved the pinky promise scene and when Rin was on Dai's shoulders. |
 |
| I loved episode 1 so much I marathoned the manga... Even though I've read it watching it is still such a bliss. Rin is just too cute. Love this. |

| I can already see Rin is going to be a very smart and tricky girl when she grows up and I am pretty damn sure that she is going to make Daikishi falls for her. |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| Another great episode. So many things in this remind me of my own life. I'm guessing he's going to track the mother down eventually from the way he was talking while looking through the baby book. |
| Yeah sweat. XD This anime is freaking adorable. Smiled for 22 minutes and don't know when was the last time I took more than an hour to watch a 22 minutes episode. <3 |

Anyone who watches the show and DOESN'T want to go out of his way to make her feel better (and hug her til she pops in between) is easily the worst person alife. |

| such an awesome episode. these two have a GREAT dynamic. I can't wait to meet her mother... |
  |
| Rin is such a little sweetheart. I would believe it was sweat too! |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
