I feel its similar to a father and a daughter relationship but its also somewhat different. so I honestly I don't know how to describe their relationship.

how would you describe their relationship?

Like brother and sister maybe.

But also, simply just a friend, I don't think that just because there's a difference in age and gender their relationship has to be classified specifically. I imagine what he does for her any good friend would do for a friend. It's a bit odd because they didn't know each other in the beginning but still.

I don't see their relationship as father and daughter. Brother and sister is closer, but that one also doesn't fit that much.

For me, they are two people who trust each other but are undeniably strangers. I don't think they see the other in familial way.

I am very interested how will this relationship develop.

I guess you could just call them roommates, but that's something I've been wondering all series long. What exactly is their relationship

Mutualism is an interaction between organisms of two different species, in which each organism benefits from the interaction in some way.

putting it simply, id say roommates with a big age difference. emotion wise, unconscious mutual pinning with one of them not realising their feelings+trying to hold them back(yoshida) and the other trying to restrict it(sayu)

I hope they stay as friends or family. I think it would be more interesting then them falling in love or becoming a relationship.

I think their relationship is complex because he gains euphoria from helping her and she gains herself from his help but they also go through thorns along their way. At the start it was like she used the happiness yoshida provided to run away from her problems and got caught in a haze but now with the support of her new found friends she feels like she can finally face her problems. Yoshida is purely a good man that’s open hearted, the kind that just wants someone to be better or happy just because-no ulterior motive. That’s why sayu found it hard to accept his kindness because he had literally no reason for it it was just pure Kindness. The fact that it’s so unique is what makes the story interesting because there are times when it’s a father daughter dynamic and then times where it’s a brother sister complex. Overall, this anime will be hard to move on from once it ends so much so that I’ll have to read the manga because it’s just perfect and in a complete different realm of slice of life anime.

just saying "brother-sister" or even some extent of "father-daughter" is the one true ideal, but i think it's too optimistic.

the story likes to linger on with the 'conveniently placed responsible white-knight protecting a succulent & vulnerable needy JK girl' dynamic way too much for me to have any faith in having their relation developing platonically.

Anime is worst in portraying good brother sister relationship except few ( eg. Demon slayer ) I also think father daughter relationship is better in which yoshida find someone else as his love interest and she will act as a mother figure for Sayu

personally i would describe as like a mature brother and a sister. like yes, there are elements of fatherly ness in Yoshida, but there’s also a somewhat immaturity or underdeveloped nature to him that doesn’t make me want to categorise him as a father figure.

Kind of a brother sister, but i can't think of a father-daughter relationship because of what Sayu was trying to do with him at first, it can perfect be a bro-sis relationship

Like a love relationship, I liked how at the beginning it was a father-daughter relationship, but now it seems more like two people who fall in love with each other over the course of the series.

Brother and sister. But as they get older that can change. But it is inappropriate if she doesn't spend a signifcant time at home sorting things out and working out what she wants from life.

Two black holes in a decaying orbit.

Both almost infinitely dense.

And ultimately destined to MERGE in a way that's gonna send out a galactic shockwave.

I think he described it perfectly himself last episode, he wants to help Sayu have a normal life but doesn't know if he's doing for her or simply because he's pisses at her situation and the unfairness of it all, but either way he's down to support her until she can go back home.

So pretty much a foster parent

I think it’s more like “brother and sister” than “father and daughter” relationship, or maybe friends…

When I think more, yoshida is 26 years old (as he said in the first episode) while sayu is about 16/17/18, so when sayu’s born, yoshida was about 10 years old or younger that make him too little to be a father for her (he can’t be a father to a daughter with sayu’s age), that’s why it’s more like “brother and sister” to me, or more like friends.

Maybe their current relationship will develop into romantic relationship in the future.


Sorry if I write something wrong in grammar/… etc.

Yoshida acts like a good big brother, so Sayu is like his dear little sister.

Their relationship is chaging from brother and sister to something else. I think it makes Yoshida's big talk at the beginning of the first episode look quite half hearted.
