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.

Another very nice episode. Still holding strong as my fav of this season.

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.

The theory that if grown-ups are sad, the children think they're mad at them seems logical to me.
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.

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....
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.

Same. It opens up the possibility that Rin's mom didn't actually hate her too.

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.

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.

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

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)

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.

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:

Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic episode! Loved every minute of it! To the difficulties Daikichi has been facing so far, to the family visit, to the acceptance of Rin, to the final resolve of having a demotion to have more time for Rin and finally the sweet and great last scene.

Best series of 2011, is there a doubt?

The fact that Daikichi asked for a demotion shows how much he is starting to accept Rin as his daughter and love her as his child.

Oh and Rin looks so cute in her kindergarten outfit at the end.

one of these days I'd love to do the math and figure out how fast the sister threw that fruit/orange at Daikachi. Man she has an arm.

This show is so sweet, and I'm loving where it's going, for now anyways.
