OMG I can't take this ambiguity!!!!
I know this whole anime is looking at the story in retrospect, but I have to know... Is the dad is dead too ?!
Hime deserves someone to look after her. :(

God... With all these foreshadowing between past and future, I can't help but thinking of the worst. I can't... Maybe I have to prepare a few boxes of tissues.

So it was Hime's mother who prepared 17-20 boxes? Since they was left behind in their original house.

Yeah that was obvious, and the rest were prepared by Goto since it seems like he also dies.

Hmm... so it seems that after his wife passed away, Goto moved and had a new house built that looked exactly the same as his old house? That would explain why the boxes in the house don't cover 17-20, but the boxes that the present Hime found did. Also explains why the old house is so run-down and why Hime didn't immediately recognise it. If that was her house from when she was little, she would've recognised not only the house but the surroundings, but here she realised that the layout of the house is like her old house. But now I'm slightly confused, did Goto pass away? Because it's still plausible that he didn't, and that Hime went to the old house after being given the key. But if the OP and ED are any indicators, then it seems Goto will pass away. That kind of ending will break my heart.

That aside, this episode was funny. I'm from Indonesia and it was nice to see Indonesia being mentioned twice, especially that drawing which was hilarious and was filled with stereotypical Indonesian features. I wonder if they have an Indonesian on board? Or if the mangaka had Indonesian friends or family? Because I don't think a lot of Japanese people are too familiar with Indonesia over all.

It was funny but wholesome. Kids really know no tact, asking if their friend is POOR. Seeing Hime feel bad about supposedly spending too much money also made me feel bad. She's so cute though.

Goto's such a doting father but it's sweet to see, seeing him try so hard for her sports festival (and inadvertently hitting on four women in the process).

A definite watch for this season.

I really hope this will have a happy ending. I feel it'd be a lot stronger as a feel-good series than trying to force moe.

The accidental harem is hilarious, another well paced episode with some laughs.

Reminds me with Taihei (Umaru's brother) who also unaware he is doing the same while he is not a main spot of that series..

Some Says Slice of Life Anime Would be Fantastic if There Was Magic in it , And They're Right ...
That Slice of Life Got a Wonderful Magic in it , a Magic Effects us in a Beautiful Way ...
Story , OST , Characters , Drawing & Everything Else All Makes a Magical Slice of Life of an Anime
................
Gotou is Such an Interesting Character , Clever But Stupid , Lazy But a Hard Worker , Annoying But Charming , But One Thing Nobody Can Denies ...
He's So Loving & Treasuring His Daughter , To a Degree That He Keeps His Job a Secret so She Won't Shocks or Depresses Because of it
Hime Also is Such a Precious Gem , Trying to Help Her Father By Not Spending Money on Unnecessary Things Because She Think They're Poor , And Trying to Take of The House By Herself
Such a Lovely Girl

Me gusta como usan el pasado al principio del capitulo para dejar con la intriga de que contienen esas cajas y por que construyó dos casas de la misma forma. Darnos cuenta de que Goto-sensei es un don juan por naturaleza sin que el se de cuenta jaja muy divertido.

Like dont get me wrong, this episode was fuckign hilarious but ... i kinda don't really care anymore, you see this show constantly remind us that what we see is past, and the bits at the end or the beginning of every episode are the present time. And i kinda want to just skip the episode and just watch those pieces you know.


Right? Like, this show is great. But goddamn, I just want to know what happened to the father already, and the mother for that matter.

Ok , I will be pretty optimistic about the whole gato disappearing thingy in the op , the way I see it

1> Gato is probably not dead , If you observe the ed well it has a scene where the little dog is all grown up which is seen in the op and gato is driving the Jeep with hime in it if I am not wrong

2> assumption : The Gato that is disappearing in the op is the Gato with the salaryman dress , I would assume when hime turns 18 she will learn the truth and therefore the whole salaryman thing will disappear now that she knows the truth the salaryman Gato is of the past so remains on the side of the house where the grass is grown less indicating that it is something of the past ..

Please tell me he is not DED

I wonder why the house is sold. But i guess it's more important to enjoy the good times while it lasts.

Also, goto is having a harem of his own. I'm not expecting less from a person who voiced araragi.

This will definitely be one of the best anime's released this season or possibly year, I really enjoy the comedy and story-line.

But just the foreshadowing from the opening of Goto disappearing really hurts, I don't want this to be a sad anime, I want a happy ending...

Hime thinking that they were poor was quite the gag. She really wanted to save money to the utmost limit which was rather cute.
Also Goto IT had me laughing hard. Rausna can be really terrifying with her idea sometime.

So last week I deduced from the OP that Hime’s dad would die at some point in the story. In the OP as the seasons change and they stand apart from each other he eventually disappears. The ending of the last episode seemed to have confirmed that with her finding the boxes of clothes in the closet. This gave me VE episode 10 flashbacks.

Been waiting all week for a new episode to get questions answered because idk how I’d cope with that type of ending :(



Yeah those boxes really do give VE vibes. Those must be from her mother.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

Hey, I didn't know the teacher was a casanova ...

Ok, seriously, issues like the home where the two live has caught my attention. I also thought about why they live in such a place, even though it must have an emotional meaning for Goto.

Little kids can really be mean as hell. Straight up asking hime if she’s poor just because of her house being one floor lol.

Goto’s got 4 girls thinking he’s in love with them and proposing in one episode, that’s gotta be a record.

Probably would make more sense for him to just buy a nice pair of dress clothes instead of constantly renting them at this point.

Nice heartwarming episode, didn’t really get the answers I was looking for, but the cute stuff put me at ease


Yeah I too have that notion that Hime's dad would have a death flag , cu'z this anime pretty much was giving us hints.

So im so bamboozled. The episode continues from previous episode ending. And after few first minutes it just went back again to her younger self times and everything went normal. Then when he wants to go home in his "working suit" he founds out its sold. So he has to wear a Wedding suit. And then he talks to gym teacher and she thinks he proposes to her. And he is talking how good it would be to have a mom. And when he talkts to other girls they all think he is hitting on him and it just became harem suddenly. And i just dont know what to think now :D.

Welp, Goto has a harem now xD

Lowkey tho, I ship him with the sensei ngl

The characters and themes coalesced really well this episode. The pacing was on point, and the choregraphy was spot on. This was. areally well-crafted ep.

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?

The harem was just the funniest shit, but coupled with the pretty heartwarming bit at the end of Hime only really want him was an added bonus. This kind of tone is something i sucker for and I am just absolutely eating this up. Also the indoneasian rain joke was 10/10

Also i worry this series might get overshadowed by the whole is he dead thing, cause im 99.9% certain hes alive and its a fake out, so i hope that doesnt make people undersell just how heartwarming and funny the show around it is.

Everything in the parts of chibi-adult Hime seems to point to that; from the first episode on. It's freaking me out, really!

I really found it funny that Kakushi is a harem protagonist who isn't a harem protagonist. Dude's a wholesome playboy without knowing it. I guess we'll be seeing more of his "harem" in the future episodes (the next episode preview had the high school girl I think). Honestly tho if they really did fall in love with him I'd feel bad cause he doesn't have those intentions for any of them.


Same, also now I understand why Kumeta Kouji (author of the manga) in interview said that anime could be 5 season long. All those women add interesting dynamic to the series.

A quick timeskip into Chapters 35-38 for the 1st half, it's amazing to see Hime being TOO aware of Kakushi's status as a mere salaryman, so much it's hilarious. A child worrying over money, that's smarts. And then, new IT equipment for Goto's manga circle.

HEH asking some Indonesian to draw backgrounds? Sure in rainy over there. And the housekeeper Nadila being like an Indonesian maid, WOW haha that was literate!

Back to the usual for the 2nd half, preparing for Hime's sports festival, starts with lessons being a motherly figure...while being a ladies' man building on a unconscious harem.

Angelic episode.
