The fireflies scene was good. Loved the visuals and the OST played at the end.

I'm going to miss this show so badly.

I love how this series always finds a way to warm your heart. Even if it only has your attention for 5 minutes. Wish there was a scene of Rin playing festival games and not winning some, Daikichi trying and winning or losing. Then see here face light up when she does win one. Just imagining it is kawaii. Thought the hair clip was cuter than the firefly but to each their own. Make sure you take the time and read the manga if you loved this series.

I'm going to miss the show for sure. Been great to watch the show again, even though they were 5min each. Rin's smile always makes my day, it's simply not possible to be mad at that kid.

I enjoyed this show a lot. The 11 episodes made my summer much warmer, and those once-a-month specials were good memoirs. I will miss the intuition of the characters. I liked the most Daikichi lifting Kouki up and moving him all along. It was as if they are father and son. I do not feel it that much with Kouki's mother and Rin.

It was a nice final special, and made me smile once more. I am gonna miss you Usagi Drop, hope to see your second season soon...

I live alongside with 2 little cousins, so this show has a sweet meaning to me. They really do grow fast ;)
I'd be ok with a 2nd season, as long as they either change the ending or prolong the final conclusions, it was too rushed in the manga to be a "decent" ending.

Love the relationship between the 4 of them! I'm going to miss this show; definitely one of the bet SOL/Drama anime I've seen.

still 10/10 for it!

This final episode could have been better, but overall the specials were quite enjoyable, retaining much of the charm as the rest of the series.

Wow the episode title "Way Home" somehow made me melancholic, maybe because I'm definitely gonna miss this show or maybe it's the mood they were setting in at the end. They look like a real family in this episode, nice going Daikichi!! ♥♥♥

Same exact sentiments and same situation for me, though the kid happens to be my nephew, man I feel old already. LOL

A lovely way to end the specials. I'm willing to watch the sequel even with the time skip and change of tone.

I finally found and watched it. I was out on the trip, so didn't know it was out and that's why I missed the chance to watch raw on streaming site.

The guy entertaining the boy, and the mother entertaining Rin-chan is interesting in the beginning. Searching for those insects with lights (too lazy to get the term on the dictionary right now).

I find it interesting that the children switched adults holding hands on the way home.
It really shows that they are super comfortable with one another.

Be happy family together plz.

Those specials were some of the best I've ever seen for a show. They really captured the feelings of the original show. I loved the visuals, the music, and all those faces Rin was making. xD

Can't believe this is it. Man, I'm gonna miss Usagi Drop...

All of these episodes were short and sweet. I wish we'd get another season of Usagi Drop but I guess for now this will do. Absolutely love this series, nice to see Nitani as well and how comfortable they are around each other. I agree, they need to become a family already.

Rin seemed jalous for a moment xD She was cute with that pin.
Daikichi and Kouko look like brothers, they have a nice relationship.
