But CANCER?? Why can’t she just be happy with her daughter of her own volition? Cmon PA works don’t hurt this girl more π I think it’s been hinted at since a few episodes ago with the defector that rei and kazuki will end up defecting from their organisation now that they have something to protect, but the interesting part will be seeing how that unfolds over these last few eps My bet is one of the daddies is going to die. |

| I don't think that Miri's mother an evil person. To me, it looks like she was in an abusive relationship with her partner (who didn't look like the type of guy who would like to have a kid around). She's been abusing substances like alcohol and cigarettes from the very beginning of the show. She was clearly not mentally well when she made the decision of abandoning Miri, which might have been the best solution that she was able to come up with at the time. It's not like Miri was mistreated or anything. She needed that time away from Miri to get her shit together. But of course, that doesn't change the fact that she was pretty heartless and irresponsible as hell. I want to believe that her change is genuine, but I also don't think that she has the right to take full custody of Miri again, even more so if her illness is really terminal. |
| The only way out of their current way of life is 1) leave the country and hope "organization" does not have foreign reach. Taking Miri with them would be hard af in this scenario as neither is actually her biological father, leaving all 3 only the option of illegal immigration, which frankly does not leave them much options abroad for legal lines of work 2) somehow convince "Grandpa" that work wont be sloppy while maintaining this current family structure and assuring them that the organization ain't losing anything. The listed ways above are the most realistic. Any deviation probably requires a wildcard. |
| There's no inherent right or wrong in this universe, but when we think with emotions rather than logic, we make things so. |
| That bitch ditched her own child twice, supposedly has cancer, and got fired, so she's going to be a good mother now. Bullshit. They can probably just wait a few days for a good reason to call CPS. |
 |
| God, I wish more people watched this show. It has its awkward moments, but it's a surprisingly dark and emotional series. I'll admit that I've cried a few times watched it because either a) it's reminded me of an event in my life or b) I'm a girl and I feel strong motherly instincts whenever it comes to Miri and her wellbeing. Kazuki and Rei are amazing guardians to Miri, and I think it's admirable how they're turning their own traumas into devoting their lives to Miri in hopes that her initially tragic life will be full of nothing but love and happiness. I'm happy this show hasn't focused too much on her having two dads, but rather on the characters tackling their "inner demons" and becoming the best people that they can possibly be. Such an underrated anime! I pray that there's a Season 2! |

| but it's really complicated someday they would have to tell her about killing her father ofcourse no one can accept such a fact no matter how good they have taken care of u even tho her father might be a bad person but rei and kazuki aren't so good either with all the killing stuff they do No matter however way i think this story seems to go toward a tragic end I am really curious how it would end π |
 |
| sad man.. today we sad |
 |
| I'm not a big fan of children, but I felt sad for kazuki papa. Well now they're going to go against the organization and try to get miri back? (I believe she doesn't spend much time with her mother). |
 |
| This episode really had me wondering how the anime is going to end... u_u |
 |
| (to the tune of "dumb ways to die) β¨thaaaat made me cryyyyyβ¨ |
| That was painful to watch them say goodbye like that :( |
| Wow it's taking a sad path with the mother coming back to take Miri but it's gonna be even worse for her if her mother dies from her cancer... |
 |
| Noo Miriii :'( I cried. I wish they'll leave their organisation and go clean, then leave with Miri & her mother far far away.. |
Softhenic03 said: exactly, her changing and turning into a super responsible person is great but at the same time very sus. i was thinking she might sell Miri for money or sumthn, who knows.I just hope her mom doesn't pull something weird though. |
Nerdodivergent said: I thought about that too like if both of them could claim the custody someway, but remember how they didn't even wanted to contact the police when Miri got lost? They can't get involved in too much legal stuff because of their line of work.I understand Misaki wanting Miri back in her life and clearly she had changed. But legally Kazuki and Rei are Miri's guardians. And Kazuki knows what it's like to be abandoned by his parents. He doesn't want Miri to suffer the way he has. It's clear they both love Miri a lot and want to a part of her life. I don't know what child custody is like in Japan but is there a way for Misaki and Kazuki and Rei to have some kind of shared custody? |
| Nooo... they taking the mexican "telenovela" route now smfh Now imagine if Miri's mother is just faking the cancer... |
| its for the better good and greater safety for Miri...well i hope that's really the case... cuz some ruthless organizations wipes-out even just platonic friends as long as they are involved on any kind of matter/situation... 5/5. |
 |
| P.A Works giving us the low blow as always, god damn I felt so sad throughout this episode. |
Why do we have to live in such a cruel world?  |
| I wonder how things will end with just two episodes left. |
 |
| i was feeling the feels in this episode. and i knew the organization was involved the moment she showed up. i was thinking she was threatened, but her sob story helped, but i get the feeling she really isn't ready to be a full time mom just yet even though her illness is only getting worse. she's still far too selfish and self-centered to think about her daughter's well-being, but she was forced to in a way to take the child back. |
       |
| Man, this episode made me sad. The mother said that she never wanted to see Miri ever again and how every time she laughed it would piss her off. I'm glad Miri had one final fun day with the boys. Weird of her mom to be completely fine with taking her back. Its a little sus. Also why does she have cancer?? Why can't a cutie and sweet girl like Miri have a normal life? Hopefully there's a happy ending :( also can't believe its already been a year since they first met. I completely forgot about the cat. What happened to it?? |
As a wise man once said, "No one hates anime more than anime fans"  |
| Man... that's not fair at all. They love Miri so much. You can't take her away from them like that but I understand the mother if she really wants to change but it's still too cruel to do something like that to Papas. |
 |
| Well, that actually felt sad, but I am still skeptical about the mother.... |
| August 6th 2023: Biggest upset ever, deception, selfishness, or scammed, manipulated. Heavy damage costs, and more. Days since: 15 Last updated: 8/21/2023 One Piece Episode 1041 & 1042 & 1047 & 1048 & 95.75%/1049 & 1053 were a mistake and Uta brought the salvation -AhriTheS3xyFox |
| This whole episode felt so bittersweet and then there's the literal ferris wheel scene as a physical metaphor for their current situation Goddamnit Miri's mother if only you could co-exist with the duo instead of going back to your hometown |
| Ahhhhh my heart I wasn't ready. ;_; This kills the man. However, I don't know if I'd agree when they say they weren't able to change. |
