Damn, I was waiting for Kirishima-san to just wake up and break that dream. Didn’t expect it to be that long though, it stretched on for a little too long imo.

It was hilarious seeing Yaeka-chan’s aunt ponder on who Team Cherry was.

"Make videos with him"


Shit escalated so quickly that it couldn't be real lmao. Except for his feelings for Yaeka of course.

Was this some kind of filler episode? I seriously started considering dropping this anime after the first half of the episode.

Yeah same. Filler-ish episode on a 12ep anime, ouch.

I'm surprised so many people hated this episode, I thought it was hilarious, they capture so perfectly the JP Youtube scene, if this was indeed filler who ever wrote the episode should make more comedy / parody shows.

weakest ep so far.

It wasn't terrible but I came here for good wholesome moments with Yaeka, not whatever this was.

What an interesting episode this was lol, our boys were told to start streaming to which they instead do a YouTube channel and made some big waves thanks to Sugihara’s connections and their content actually being pretty good, the videos looked funny too, all they needed was a 3AM video thrown in there lol. But man it did get pretty crazy near the end there with becoming music artists and collaborating with people from other countries.

The ending was pretty scary tho, that turned a goofy situation into a nightmare really fast, and thank god he woke up lol, I had a feeling that’s what this episode was from the beginning, being able to sit right next to Yaeka after all that was really nice. But I’ll say, one must never forget Team Cherry!

And wow, I know the episode went off track but damn I’m surprised so many people didn’t like this one, I liked it a lot personally. Of course I’m glad it was all a dream but it wasn’t bad in the slightest.

The entire thing was a dream. Lol

Today's episode: Yakuza's Guide to Showbiz
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

What in the actual fuck was that, what could happen that they had to go with this shit?

Every episode sees this show get worse and worse as it aimlessly spins its wheels and tries to throw anything and everything at the wall to fill the runtime. Maybe don't rush through a critical part of your premise in two episodes if you have no other ideas after it? Just a thought.

And with that, I am done with this show, as it clearly doesn't give a damn about wasting the viewer's time with a complete filler episode four episodes in. In fact, I might just give up on this "surrogate father" subgenre for a while as there hasn't been a good one of those since Poco's Udon World in 2017, while this and Deaimon last season were both huge disappointments.


I don't remember that many shows with this theme in recent years but I think Kotarou wa Hitorigurashi was good, not amazing because it is unfinished, but good.

I wouldn't say hate it but it was really bad to the point I and, by reading these comments makes me believe, many others were considering dropping the show because this episode was insultingly bad. I don't watch Japanese youtube scene but this felt more like normie youtube scene no mater which country, similar to mr beast or some other fag with red arrows and soyface in thumbnails, with constant screaming and overexaggerated reactions to everything that happens in every single video. I don't like to admit it but I'm huge pussy when it comes to emotional scenes between kids and parents and last episode got me tearing a lot which made me connect to the show on the emotional level but this episode single handedly killed the connection.
I know barely anybody can relate and I'm being selfish but this felt like loosing a good friend over stupid argument.

I understand where everyone is coming from, this episode had nothing to do with this show and its premise at all, I liked for what it was but mostly because I came to the term that this show was more of an otome type of show about hot guys with a quiet / self insert type of female MC than an actual parenting one (even though it does have in fact some touching moments).

Already everything was getting crazier, going from youtubers to renowned artists and leaving the lady alone, Kirishima did go too far with that dream, but that's just it, he'd rather take care of her then.

Well, this episode sure feels wack different, thanks to the advisory notice given at the opening, which promises randomness and ridiculousness. A fair amount of love and hate is warranted for being an anime-original filler episode.

The Sakuragi Family suddenly going into livestreaming, which is plain ridiculous if anything, posed to both Kirishima and Sakuragi, and I'd say that this is literally the Yakuza version of "YouTube for Dummies" under the name Team Cherry (???), with all the current societal social media norms and filters applied to it. And then, the sudden announcement to close the channel because of fabricating lies to the audience, which actually increases their influence...to the point of being bad influence.

The inclusion of singing...which no choice, Team Cherry has to continue their shtick at the behest of boss Kazuhiko's approval, even if they cancel their channel and leaving their fanbase to speculate their fate. Even Yaeka low-key knows, and the ridiculousness continues with their official status as music artists traversing the world.

It's probably good that this whole thing...was just all a dream.

Despite the weird traction of this being a bad episode, I must admit that I had some fun too.

Personally i think this was a pretty bad episode which kind of disappointing since the anime has been really good so far.
Well let's hope we won't see anything like this again the episode did have it's funny moments but i rather see more development between the characters.
Seeing Kirishima grow attached to Yaeka is one of the nice things of this anime and we didn't see much of that except towards the end of this episode.

nah fr, this episode was so difficult to sit through i was so bored LOL

at the beggining it says "for reasons" i am guessing covid or budget
anyway, whatever the reasons, it would have been better to just delay the normal episode instead of this
waste of money and i guarantee u people are gonna drop it just for this episode.. i was debating about it

i am watching this for the UwU AYAYA with Kirisima and the kid
and for the feels with her mother
and that villain guy which they havent show doing anything yet

will say the only good thing was that it actually was just a dream felt like such a random left field of a episode show has been pretty good up till this point and i understand having a more fun episode after so many heavy ones but the return of it being somewhat serious near the end of the dream wasn't needed even if it was the show how important the lil lady is starting to become for him

"TEAM CHERRY!"
A very random dream.
Kirishima and Sugihara took to the internet world and went viral...in a fast way.
Youtube and showbiz references hahaha xD
But in the end it turned out to be a dream, and Kirishima is at ease that it didn't happen xd
It was very funny chapter.

Don’t forget to smash that like button, subscribe, and hit that bell for notifications on Team Cherry content with Misty, Bamboo, and Gold! Lmao.

Kirishima’s dream was hilarious. I wasn’t expecting him dreaming of the gang becoming massive streamers. I liked the “apology video” and how deleting their channel just created more buzz. Team Cherry even became idols lol. It’s kind of sweet that Kirishima cared so much about Yaeka, that even the thought of disappointing her was enough to cause him to have a mental break (in his dream ofc).

All in all, this was a pretty fun episode. Completely ridiculous but hilarious.

I’m so glad someone else thinks this was an incredibly fun episode! If it’s filler, this is the kind of filler I am into! Haha Kirishima has such a vivid dream, I am surprised it didn’t go further!

Dreams are weird. Some people theorizes that we internalised our worries and wants into our dream world(dream interpretation psychology: Freudian, Jung, Calvin Hall, etc). I would like to interpret this ep as a dive into Kirishima's wants and worries. He worried about how the yakuza family will go on financially hence the streaming. He wants to balance it with spending time and caring for ojousama as well but also worried for a risk the streaming might pull him from that hence how the dream went(lol meeting some Dubai royals? kinda make sense with recent BTS meeting Biden). From this perspective, I love this ep.
