I'll be honest, going into this anime I had mix feeling about it. Nothing honestly to do with the anime itself it's just more with what I scared it might become. Let me explain quickly what I was worried that it might become...
Either it'll become this
/manga/33468/bunny-drop
or it'll be what I hoped for, which is this
/anime/10162/bunny-drop
Now if you don't know what that means basically to sum it up... it's an grooming manga. While the anime just treats it more as a wholesome father and daughter relationship that is built overtime through hardship and trails. It's a good show, I'm not hating on it. So yeah if you were wondering if it was going to be an grooming anime, don't worry, it isn't. So that's out of the way let's get back to talking about the anime that we're here for.
Characters:
Nagomu
Honestly majority of the time I would've find him unbearable and not someone I wanted to watch for more then a few episodes. Because usually I find that type of character to get annoying fast. But the one thing about him that I do respect a lot is that he is a really genuine character. Despite his lacking in confidence and not really knowing where to go in life, he isn't someone who just gives up but always striving forward even if he's unsure of himself. I can at least respect him for that.
What came off a dumb character at first slowly became someone I respect at least. Sure he's not going to be among my favorite or memorable characters, but someone I can at least say, he's a kind person.

Itsuka
No matter how mature sometimes she tries to be, despite seeing more mature than Nagomu at times, she is still at the end of the day a child. We sometimes will try to be this person that we believe will make us more adult but in reality we're still just a child and it's okay to be afraid. It's okay to be unsure. It's okay to want and long for a place to belong. Since at the end of the day, no matter how old you get, you still feel those way. And we are all always searching for a place to belong.

Side Characters
For the most part, I enjoyed majority of them, I can't say all of them are great or memorable. But these two are fun for sure, I enjoyed them.

So to sum up my thoughts for the anime
OP and ED were awesome
If I was honest, this is probably one of my favorite opening of Spring.
What is the main theme and what is the answer to the question of what is the recipe of happiness?

There are a few things I can say about this
There is....
the family we're given
the family we make
the family we choose
And this anime captures each one in a unique way. Where we see the son returning home. The child who was abandon by her parents but finding a new home. Or the work place we work at. Sure you can say is work really family? Well the way I see it, if you work long enough you soon will realized you spend so much time with these people they become like family. Given you might hate some of your coworkers lol... but we're talking about more of the good coworkers
Thanks for reading my not so well thought out review lol
I really enjoyed it, I thought it was sweet and wholesome. A really good watch for those who just want something more slow and calm. It's not gonna have moments that probably be memorable in the long run. But for what it presented, it's one of those that just peaceful.
