So I'm guessing she got pregnant. Haha! She better stop smoking. That doctor though. Her responses made it even better.

They structured that episode weirdly. But the doctor was the best troll ever...Pregnancy, huh? Say goodbye to VN's and other time consuming hobbies mate. You have to be fresh to change nappies at 2 in the morning.

I don't think she's pregnant...or is she? oO

yes she is

the doctor said stop smoking until your child is born
I know she said 'just joking' but then after that she said "is that what you expected me to say?"
which means that she wasn't joking about it

it's weird but yeah... kind of an odd episode overall

anyway a pregnant married MC couple is kind of rare around these parts so I guess that aspect is commendable
shame that it was a ~3.5 minute gag anime had to do it and not a full-length one


Hm...yeah, you're right. I was a bit confused...but that would make sense ^^

From what I can garner about Japanese culture, which comes mostly from reading articles from tofugu and my interactions with an ex-pat friend who's been living over there for over a decade, he's probably feeling some level of shame considering he's the kind of otaku that a lot of women would consider "iyarashii" or repulsive/disgusting, and plus he's frankly not the very reliable kind of guy.

The thing about work culture over there is if you're a woman, as is right now, you basically have to choose between career and having a family. Work hours for full time employment simply make raising small children and balancing a career at the same time close to impossible. So you end up with one parent working full time and the mother becoming a housewife with maybe part time, low pay work.

Anyway for those who don't mind spoiling themselves here's a link to the latest chapter of the 4-koma of the series the anime adapted from:

Thanks! I suspected it must be something particular to the culture.

Glad I was able to figure out the other clues, the strongest one for me was the dude suddenly making a 180 doing the dishes, cleaning and stuff with the wife chilling on the couch (not looking sick). In such a family-centric traditional-style culture it definitely meant something important happened, like she is pregnant.

I didn't know the blonde due was Kaoru's dad until I came to this forum.


He said "Otosan" to him and they didn't sub it "father". That could mean only one thing. Who is that person who you call "dad" in Japanese culture (and eastern culture in general) but not in western culture? Right... Your father-in-law.

^ you pretty much have it right on the money. It's a common thing in the orient to (in private at the very least) refer to your in-laws as "father" and "mother". Hell, my parents actually made a fuss of my older brother's wife not calling them "dad/father" or "mom/mother" and using uncle/auntie a few months ago.

I can imagine him making his baby cosplay and making Anime references as usual with regards to this own child. Probably an otaku son/daughter.

Episode very calm and normal, almost I did not believe it, seeing as he had shown the previous one, cheerful and full of gags. Some situational during the narration, I also seem a bit pointless, the end does not have shocked me. The drawings are good, not bad the new ending.

Kaoru overworked and Hajime's taking full responsibility for it. I didn't know that the blonde dude was her dad until I saw it here and rewatched it to hear "otou-san" :o

Kaoru wanting him to just be himself only makes her even more perfect...

She's pregnant! Considering her drunken rampage, I suppose her luck ran out. Oh well. Can't wait ta see the baby tho~

? smoking is pretty common....is it not......i mean me included & all the people around me, more than half of us smoke. for an anime that is a rather realistic take on relationships/everyday people, i actually didn't find it shocking that one of the two of them smokes.

also she is not pregnant. here from a future episode
