Otaku no Musume-san (Manga)

The story focuses on Kouta slowly adjusting to his fatherly role as he struggles with the new life style with his daughter. And on the other side Kanau tries to find pride in he otaku father, wishing to be like the other girls at school. As the story progress, she stray away from wanting the ideal father and appreciates kouta the way he is.

Story 9 : From the very beginning when Kouta and kanau first met, you knew that the whole story was going to be a thrill ride, full of embarrassing scene, gags, and surprises from each of the character. Luckily it's not a constant laugh factory, full of meaningful and suspenseful moments. The tension between family and friend leaves you silent, actually start to care for each of the characters, many time my I almost cry and my heart start to ache from what was happening. By the end of the chapter there are some comedic relief to keep you from feeling like crap.

Art 8 : Pretty unique from what I'm used to and it works well when the characters and expressing their emotions. There's not much to say other than it complements the great story and it stays mostly consistent throughout the story.

Characters 9 : One of the great thing about this manga is the character development. Most of the character are great and have a very rich background that could easily produced their own manga or spin off. The only downside are some of the minor character, like the lolicon guy and the nagato family. They seem to be just placed there for gags and laugh, but further down the story some will actually have a significant impact on the story.

Enjoyment 10 : What can I say?, I read 30 chapters the first night I was that hooked. I had great laughs, many heart warming moments, and had kept me at the edge of my seat. By the time I reach the end of the story, I almost raged wanting more.

Overall score 10: There are moments where the comedy and the seriousness of the plot seems to clash as the author tries to force joke onto you. Even though this manga will make you scratch your head and have headaches, it's still definitely worth checking out

It may be pretentious to give this manga a 10 out of 10..

At first you think well Otaku and a sudden daughter appearance would make for a wacky fun time! It's much more than that. I wanted to read this manga mostly because I was looking for something like Bunny Drop. It has a bit more of a Love Hina feel to it though. The ending was also not what I expected from this type of story line either it's actually a pretty harsh realization for the main character Kouta. So no more semi spoilers.

The story is pretty innocent as a normal everyday girl is brought into the world of Otaku. He makes some mistakes as all of these sort of stories do. It doesn't really become too serious until Kaunu's friend blurts out a secret that wasn't meant to be said.

Also I mentioned Bunny Drop before so if anyone has read that story before be prepared to have it retold in the relationship of 2 side characters. - Mind Explosion read more
