Pretty solid ending if you ask me, somewhere I already started to think it was something like that, but in general I really liked the overall concept and setting of this anime as it was quite hilarious and random!

All in all a great marathon watch I must say and for once a great recommendation by the MAL suggestions!

That was a whole lot of cringe! I really don't like how writers always attempt to go serious when it's clear that the story was meant to be a satire/comedy. The concept of the series was nice, but the script was terrible, the characters speak too much and were far too annoying. A lot of perverted jokes which coincidentally were also in the previous anime I just watched. What's with Japan and their perverted jokes? It ain't funny most of the time.

The ending though, there's far too many flashback for someone in their dream, and dream within a dream with the dream-ception.

Moa Tsukino also did a terrible voice acting job on Min-chan, she's trying but some of her voice just didn't go through and felt really unnatural. You can tell she's a complete newbie.

Nice chinese-ish ending theme though.

Really recommend you guys to watch the original version, which is the Chinese version, the ending is much better and touching.

Thought the last episodes were a let down but overall a fun short series. Now hoping To Be Heroine will be good.

He was in a coma this whole time? And, he ended up fat in the end anyway. I guess he was eating well during his recuperation. Wonder if he's still working 8 part-time jobs.

Copied from reddit:

I heared that most audiences in Europe and America kept watching the Japanses version of this anime and felt confused about the ending, I suggest you guys to watch the Chinese version of episode12(if someone put a english sub version on Youtube),because in Japanese version,they delated lots of clips juest to fit the time limit of their TV broadcasting requirements(about 5 minutes),they even made a new ending to make it looks not that weird,but that ending almost completly changed the final them of this anime,in the initial Chinese version, the father got ill for a long time(almost died for that)in the real world because of doing to much jobs at the same time(even selling sex for some rich women),just to repay the bills that caused by one of his colleague who betrayed him for money.And he was always making a dream about saving his family (especialy his daugther)during this period of time,fighting against the evil who never spend time with his family and only cares about business(which is another part of him),and finally succeed and woke up again in the real world,living with his daughter again but became a fat guy because of eating too much for recovering his health(still happy ending).

In the end of Chinese version,the director(Chinese) expressed that this anime is an apology letter to his daughter,for he has been spending the whole time making anime and don't have the time for their relationship

I hope this will help you to undersdand the story better and I just hope that I didn't make too much language mistakes,I 'm just a Chinese senior hign school student who love this anime.
that explains it thanks,

The last episoes were kinda weak which actually made me lower my score. Anyway, it was a wild ride with extremely funny jokes (for the most part). If I ever rewatch it, I'll watch the Chinese version which has more content. 7/10

I thought I'd like it more, but it got a little stale too quickly for my liking. 6/10.

The show was a disappointment from the first episode but it is one of the closest series to OPM. Lots of meme references as well as adult jokes littered throughout the show though.
