I've been worried about this for a while looking at the opening how she grows up while her father disappears and now she is all alone at the boxes thing , I really hope he isn't dead , possible he is just hiding himself ? like outside for work or whatever

As usual, a funny and lighthearted comedy... and then a direct hit on the heart at the end. I was already a bit hit when Ami went to Gotou's old house and saw the sign with Daddy's, Mommy's, and Hime's duties. But then Kakushi saying that someday, Hime will find someone who will be Gold to her and he'll become Silver, and he got teary-eyed because he wants to always be Gold.

But nothing beats that last hit at the end. So it wasn't her mom that left the boxes beyond 16. It was Kakushi himself. So that basically confirms that Kakushi isn't around anymore.

This is definitely going to break my heart, isn't it?

Oh god, I had so much laughs this ep, Tomaruin really killed it with his added LOLs and stalking Hime.

But oof, the boxes.

I can't bring myself to think that Kakushi might be dead. Similar to how you can't believe when a person of full of life irl is dead.

Wow, they're really pushing this, aren't they? The build up to whatever it is that happens to Kakushi is relatively well done. It's just, do they have enough time to put it in the anime? Isn't this just a single cour?

Also, I just noticed this:

Kakushi sure is pushing his team hard to get their own manga to be noticeable.

And Tomaruin...he sure makes BAD decisions for the dad who doesn't want his daughter to realize his work (that's piling by the day). As if that's not enough, ripping off Kakushi's critiques with laughs (LOL). WHAT DA HECK Tomaruin! Damn hilarious LMFAO (LOL). To add insult to injury, stalking Nadila, with idol Naru and Hime at home, being survelliance(?) sure keeps them at bay (LOL).

And duties, whether from home (to Hime) or work. From dedicating house roles to getting stuck in a hotel just to meet deadlines, and with the crew having a bathrobe party (LOL).

Hime giving her own dad a handmade gold medal, that's a sweet momwnt.

And getting back to present day, the secret of Hime that doesn't go further than 17 years old...what truly are the contents of that box? The cliffhangers always had me worrying a lot.

Otherwise, what a fun episode!

i have the feeling that the mystery behind Gotou will surpise us all idk. best episode of the anime so far. Hime being "home alone" with all these weird individuals was charming as hell.

It's pretty much a given that her mom's already died. The question is what happens to her father, presumably some time before her 17th birthday.

Is it just me or was Tomaruin kinda exasperating here? Adding LOLs? Good grief...

Well, so there goes my theory about the mom being the one who left the other boxes. This series is really selling the idea of Kakushi being dead but I still have some doubts about it. Anyways, let's hope we can get more concrete facts sooner rather than later.

Starting with comic relief and ending with melancholy, this how keeps you on hold everytime. Must protec Hime!

I felt quite teary when Goto had to think of Hime giving her gold favor to her future love and had to settle for what he got rn. Damn this show is gonna break hearts at the end for sure.

Also Tomruin must be leashed. He's too much of a loose cannon.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

Now I know why his name is TomaRUIN. He's making things difficult for Goto and thinking with the wrong head, instead of watching over Hime, he stalked Nadila. Good thing Nadila and idol girl spent the night watching over Hime-chan.

That ending though. Like everyone is saying, it seems like Goto-sensei passes away at some point during Hime-chan's teenage years.

Also, I think they're going to get a puppy soon. The puppy we see in the OP and ED will probably make its debut soon. I haven't read the manga btw, I'm just guessing because Hime-chan mentioned she wanted a puppy while they were watching TV.

Gonna drop this for now. Jokes aren't funny, characters are annoying, relationship between the father and daughter is so one dimensional, feels like they're having the same conversations every time, everything feels just streamlined.

Hime has her own category as best daugther girl. Nadila at the other hand has her own adult charm.

Another dose of fun in this episode.

But I am intrigued by the last scene. That is to say, it is not only the question of the status of Goto, but Hime does not remember much about his house and the boxes?

I'm not really fond of Tomaruin, he seems dorky but is kinda creepy imo.

It was a good episode, I enjoyed the Hina Home Alone bit and the bittersweet ending. It makes me intrigued by what's going to happen at the end of the anime. I already know what's happening with Gotou because of the manga, but I wonder if they will reach that point.

So i was wrong and 4 last boxes was prepared by Kakushi, huh.
Also - if Tomaruin was at Goto's house, then who have taken edited pages to the printing office?

It was obvious that he made the last boxes, from the moment they showed them, since they were at his studio.

The foreshadowing is starting to amp up a bit. I guess they're going for a 'shatter the good mood' route - personally, I think it enhances the anime.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

Another week and we are going for the 5th chapter of Kakushigoto and ... what fun is being

This time while we see how Kakushi suffers as a Critic, we can appreciate how Tomaruin "helps" him and the truth is ... it would be better if he did not help him.

Kakush's reactions are pure gold (also Hime's when scared haha).

Pure fun with this series, waiting for the next caper and more laughter.

P.S. Long live the "Genius" Tomaruin

Tomaruin is like a double-edged sword, you never know if he will help you or hurt you.
I wonder if the reactions would be good if he hadn't ruined it.

The whole medal scene was so amazing!!!

And of course, at the end the, the usual feels. I do hope he's not dead...
I also do wonder how this will end, i thought that the manga was over but apparently not, so i do wonder...

UPDATE: The last volume of the manga will be released this summer, so now everything makes more sense, especially the feels part...

Hnngh, another cute moments from Hime! However, when the end comes again, the feeling got its down again. The pandora box allegory, Hime mention before, really suit well here. Especially with the allegory of the gold-silver medal thing. Oh, man, i really curious what is the real deal in the present time there?

Once again, still interesting and promising story of the daily life from Mangaka Goto Sensei problems. Using the moments to get some Rasuha's shower scenes really nice to see.

Okay, so whats next?

I am realllllly hoping it’s a troll that Goto-sensei dies, because that will break my heart. Trying to avoid spoilers since I’m watching this after it finished airing is hard!
The gold medal scene was just too sweet. “Someday I’ll be silver...but I want to be gold!” Waaauuuggh.
The comment about 1 file per box - “What is this - Amazon?” cracked me UP!
