Yikes, looks like our main cast is having some financial problems. Then again, we're talking about two guys raising a kid together so obviously, it's going to cause money out of their wallets.

I love how Miri assigns herself to watch over Ikki. She's already acting like a spy as if this is a game.

Now kazuki and rei known they gotta keep that door locked when you got a girl with as much energy as Miri lmao. It all worked out for the best because now there’s no more secrets with Kyu and Miri will stop asking what they do for a living 😂

I love how the smallest details about kazuki and rei get her so excited it’s so damn cute. Her trying not to say papa was adorable


I really am glad kyu came around at the end too, was worried he’d try to break them up but bro saw how cute miri was and folded, like all sane people would.

Rei and kazuki fan club one of the best parts of the show man they are simping hard.

The last scene is a marriage symbolism. They're under the arch structure, Kutaro positioned in the middle is like a priest, and talking about accepting the consequence is equivalent to "in sickness and in health", a marriage vow.

i think kyu-chan is going to be like an uncle/older brother figure for miri. probably in the next few eps he's gonna be stuck taking care of her a few times so id like to see them get closer and gossip about rei and kazuki together. would be adorable
i love how every ep gives a small insight bit by bit about rei and kazuki's jobs. like we just found out there's an organization they're working under. hopefully everything about their backstories and how they met will be revealed later on. its very intriguing 
i also love how the show displays symbolism in little things. as the second post above me told about the marriage thing. the entertainer and oil merchant are great examples about kazuki and rei's situations. most stand up comedians are not financially stable or work many jobs indiciation their harsh money problems. similary showing that rei was an oil merchant from the middle east show that he was rich (as stated a few eps back) exactly like an oil merchant 
cant wait for the next ep

Since episode one I've been wondering if Miri would eventually find out that her biological papa was killed by her papas. Not sure if it's really necessary for this show to go down that route. Her getting kidnapped seems inevitable on the other hand. Perhaps these two mentioned aspects will go hand in hand.

Uncle Kyu-chan was very creative regarding the professions. Not surprising at all that it became another hot topic among the mom's xD Also lol @ Miri as bride or her getting bewitched by big boobas.

This was another great episode. Sorry, but Miri following Kazuki reminded me so much of Spy x Family.

Ofc Kyu knew everything, given his line of work. The things he told to Kazuki and Rei are the harsh truth, they had to face it sooner or later. Just hope they can continue taking care of her and the three of them can stay together.

Kyu telling Miri about their work was hilarious and the moms talking about it too.

One of the hardest thing for two criminals raising a kid could face... telling their kid what they do for a living. At least Kyu-chan can cleverly lie to a kid like that, though I feel like he was having fun with those made up jobs of theirs XD. I love how Kazuki imagined Miri marrying Kyu-chan, just like an overprotective father, priceless!!

A lot of anime, too many in my experience, start off with a bang and quickly fizzle out. In this season's case for me, other than all the fantasy and isekai that also surprisingly started out pretty well, it's High Card. Started off firing on all cylinders, but imho, is only a bit better than "meh".

BUDDY DADDIES, on the other hand? Almost hated it at first, mostly due to Miri. But now, especially since episode 4? Loving it. I was too quick to judge, and needed to let it take its time a little. I wonder how many people were turned off by the first couple episodes and have disregarded it forever. 

It always deserved at least a chance. But now, I believe it deserves everyone's full attention. Sorry for being cringe, I'll go now.

Edit: also Kyu-Chan making that strawberry cream soda drink or whatever it was for Miri low key might just be the best scene I’ve seen all week

Hiring a regular babysitter is not an option, no? For comedic effect it's fine, I guess, but seems somewhat silly.

Why doesn't Miri miss her mother though, she almost completely forgot about her.

In this line of work, it would be expected that Kyu would know a lot of things and in the case of Miri, this was certainly no exception. Still, I did like how he looked after her and made up a good story about Kazuki and Rei's "jobs" were, which she took to heart and presented it as her homework piece at the daycare centre later on, with Rei wearing a wedding dress in her picture. Not only that, but the gossiping mothers were at it again, with one of them VERY interested in the money. There's always one like that, huh? XD

Kyu was pretty understanding of the position Kazuki and Rei are in because of Miri and his explanation of it to them was really well done. You can tell from Kazuki and Rei's faces that they're committed to looking after Miri while sticking to their line of work for as long as possible, even though it'll be a tough challenge for them.

Once again, this was another fine episode, with a generous amount of funny Miri expressions and good character development. We even get to see the full face of the intimidating hit-man from episode 2 and he does look the part of someone you don't want to screw around with, that's for sure.

I'm glad that Kyu can support Kazuki and Rei's decision to try to raise Miri on there own even though it's not good for their business.
Hell even the main assassin Ryou was charmed by Miri, Hopefully this will help them mature and be better parents.

And the picture Miri drew up as well, Kazuki being a comedian in a black suit and Rei being an oil baron in a white attire with the headpiece looking like a veil...it looked like she was drawing a marriage picture ahahah

Seriously, I honestly thought it was a wedding dress when I first saw it. I had a good laugh when I realized it was an oil baron's attire.

This episode brings up the concept of an "organization" that Kazuki and Rei are under. I just assumed that they were freelance assassins, since they get their jobs pretty randomly from Kyu. With Kyu warning them to not betray the organization, it's almost certain that the show is foreshadowing some confrontation between them and the organization, most likely over Miri. I don't know how that would end up, but the fact that they have to answer to some higher entity is quite interesting.

It’s definitely foreshadowing that something is legit gonna happen to her that will put her in a lot of actual danger. In where they are gonna have to save her, it might trigger kazuki to be reminded of what happened with his wife & kid.

Again while not as good as ep 3 it's still solid, and finally things seem to be picking up just before the halfway point. The subtle character acting in Rei's face when he picked Miri up from the couch near the end, as well as his progression in general from being apathetic to more fatherly, warms my heart.
Friendly reminder that Kazurei is in fact canon, the writers told me themselves. /j

Thought this as well and it's too much of a coincidence if you ask me; not saying it's confirmation of anything or meant to be looked deep into but more like a cute parallel lol

My best guess is that her mom will show up and get her back, leaving a hole and that's how the season or series will end.

But that's just my assumption (too good characters to die this early).

The buddy daddies in financial ruin and proposes on Kyutaro to send work their way as a measure to help keep them in check.

A call from Miri's daycare to stay home because of a virus that-cannot-be-named, and Miri's class is called to stay at home. Her homework to ask both Kazuki and Rei about their jobs, however, though piques her interest, stresses both of them to no end to balance babysitting with their small jobs. The lively Miri just can't be more energized enough, and she walks out alone to stalk Kazuki on his job, thereby creating another Anya situation. It's so fun to see Miri just exploring by herself and getting lost, while Kazuki gets crunched by Kyutaro, only to be bombarded by Rei's call that said daughter has gone missing out in the wild. Having no other options to go, and bumping onto Kyutaro's clientele right outside his cafe, he takes her in.

Kazuki, fearing the worst, finds her in Kyutaro's cafe, only to shoot themselves in the foot juggling Miri's babysitting with Kyutaro's jobs. He offers a proposal to take care of her while the buddy daddies take care of his, it's a much-needed proposal, nevertheless. Contrary to his cold-bloodedness towards Kazuki and Rei, he's actually a kind natural to others, and hiding their real jobs is something that only Kyutaro can pull off a reply like that. But with how Miri being so open about them both, it's only a matter of time where the cat would be out of the bag, which Kyutaro has already known instinctively. Miri sharing both jobs in class with the mothers aggressively taking notes, never fails to cease the hilariousness.

With Kyutaro emphasizing the grimness of their jobs, along with the babysitting of Miri, he poses the question of whether they are up to the task of juggling the assassination job and the babysitting.

Lives taken, no regrets if it affects the child's life.

For those who are asking why they cant just hire a baby sitter.

In Japan, there is a process to undergo before getting one. An agency needs to check their background to which Kazuki and Rei cant risk to have and several appointments needed to be done before a baby sitter is approved to see compatibility with the kid.

Getting a private nanny cant be an option but risky that is why it is mostly process under a government agency at most.

I was thinking of having those two casino girls who are also on the OP would be the one to be a female figure in Miri's life when her dads will be at work... maybe in a later episode though...

Kinda on the big guy who Miri stumbled with might be the main villian they have to deal in getting Miri or a plot twist that he is most caring and knowledgable in handling Miri. Hoping it will be the later part as I can see Kyu the better villian against the two.
