| That's one self sufficient and mature 4 year old xD Enjoyable first episode. It's kinda like Usagi Drop on steroids. How it blends cute and melancholic reminds me indeed a lot of it. It's one of my all time favorites and everything that's even remotely close to it is already a W in my book. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| It is good. I was curious about this anime when Netflix announced it, and I liked the first episode. Kotaro is adorable. |
| hahahahahaha... |
 |
| Pretty mid, tha animation isn't that great. Some moments were wholesome but I don't have the time to finish the whole series. |

| What a great start, this is gonna be a good show. Kotaro is a quirky little fella and so far all three neighbours are interesting. I like how the show has a cuteness, but clearly a darker side. We have a child whose seems to have lost his parents, a struggling manga-ka who is becoming a shut-in, what looks to be a hostess with a deadbeat boyfriend always borrowing money and a yakuza looking guy who can't see his own son. |
| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| I was just browsing Netflix not really looking for anything to take seriously just something to watch while having lunch. And man what a heartwarming lunch that was. |
 |
| Despite the not so fluid animation, what matters more to me is that Kotaro has the requirement of becoming an independent kid till the future and I find it funny that it is the same VA as Kagura from Gintama lolol. |
| Didn't even know about this show, until I saw it updated on somebody's list. Rated very high, gotta check it out. Seems like a series right up my alley, good start. |
| I wasn't really interested in this anime at first, but I saw from some commentaries and forums saying that it's really touching and heartwarming, so I want to see why they said so. The most unexpected thing from this episode is that Kotaro knows how to relieve the eye sore of Mitsuki because he knows she has been crying. It's really unexpected and a bit sad that a four year old child knows this kind of thing... And I like that Kotaro smiles when Karino draws him his favorite character on his bandage. Hope to see more heartwarming interactions between Kotaro, Karino and other residents. |
| i couldnt get through the first episode bc of the art style unfortunately |
HagePotPotato said: subahokke said: i couldnt get through the first episode bc of the art style unfortunately you mean because of the art style of one character? i think everything else about the show is pretty standard looking no just in general, if an anime doesnt have an art/animation style i like (im picky), then i cant finish it. something about it felt really off and it was a little uncomfortable for me to watch most of the first ep 😭 |
| Okay, Usagi Drop & Amaama to Inazuma immediately pops up to mind and they're some of my favourite SOL shows so I'm getting good vibes from this. Kotaro noticing Akitomo-san's sore eyes is sad considering he must've seen a lot of this despite being so young. No wonder why he seems to put up a guard but it's pleasing to see that Karino-sensei is a genuinely nice person. Definitely looking forward to more! |

| Bless this kid uhm I mean feudal lord. Quite the unique art style and also quite the entertaining plot so far of Kotarou influencing the lives of his fellow neighbours who clearly have some problems. |
 |
| Randomly started watching the English dub of this on Netflix, seems super cute after the first ep, don't often watch dubs but the English voices sound good in this so far! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| me encanta el refugio feudalista |
| Lol this is cute, though a bit sad this child is living by himself even though he's only 4 years old but fortunately he has good neighbors |
 |
| very cute and fun. i started this bc i wanted to watch an anime with silly kid characters but this kid aint quite what i was looking for haha. i still do like him though! i have a feeling hes gonna be teaching the adults a bit more than theyll be teaching him potentially. |
| Seen it on Netflix and eventually got to it now after seeing it pop up so much and I gotta say, I think I like it. It's quite cute and wholesome and seems to have quite a deep plot hidden almost. I'll probably watch some more over time |
| Oooof…did NOT expect what I just watched. I thought this was going to be a sort of light hearted comedy about the older guy living alone next door, with the kid coming over to bother him. That being said, this is probably going to be SO much better than I originally thought. Interesting concept, excited to see more. |
 |
| When I saw the "childcare" tag, I wasn't expecting to actually mean "child caring for adults." For every gut busting gag, there was a sucker punch to the feels. Given the ridiculous premise, I was ready for the hilarity. I wasn't expecting it to be as thought provoking. Some of it is getting on Isekai Ojisan levels of depressing, like the guy who can't see his son getting burned by Kotarou. |
 |
| This is super cute, depressing and heartwarming all at the same time. I almost cried like twice. |
 |
| Ma boi Kotarou, must protect at all costs! |

| Never heard of apartments that refuse to rent to families with children before. But I also haven't heard of children being permitted to rent out an apartment room on their own through their nebulously source of cash, so suppose you can't question it too much. It certainly isn't the prettiest show ever though; those beady eyes and matte colours will take some getting used to. |
