@Aversa It may not stop with the daughter. Or maybe Mom was just raised that way. From what I've read, she pretty much is just a decoration in the Manga.
| @Sheol01 It could be something like that. I just find it a bit odd that she doesn't seem to interfere with her daughters upbringing and education. Her behaviour clearly shows she cares for her daughter. But the father does seem like a control freak, at least that was the impression i got from this episode. |
| Best episode of this anime. wow thanks.. |

| What a rollercoaster of an episode. I love that the show came back to it's character-driven side, though the bad animation makes it really hard to take seriously what's happening on the screen. Btw, I was joking that Miyura was giving me Edward Cullen vibes when he visited Uka in her room, but the guy actually said that he can fly and we never saw how he left the balcony... Lamo 😂 |

| An overprotective father huh |
| I loved this episode. I started to hate the father from the first minute of this chapter. I get his point, but she's a person, not a doll, so I totally disagree on his way of doing things. I really like when animes give me some characters that I can't stand for and really want to spit them on their face 🤣. Edit: I love the part when the father tells Miura that he brainwashed his daughter. I think the father brainwashed his wife, because it's like she doesn't even exist, just a doll to make a daughter 🤣. So sad 😅 |

@Spast1c well.. horimya is a little more realistic yes. But the characters especialy hori are also over the top. Noone is like that in RL.
I agree that this show is unrealistic. Noone talks like that and noone behaves like that.
But thats the beauty about it. Its just feels xD
Most romance especialy in anime is completly unrealistic over the top. because lsts be honest: normal relationships are boring too watch.
Thats why i love anime romances but absolutly hate hollywood romances.
Its the over the top characters and storys that pull me in.
If you are inexpirienced with real romances please dont expect anyone to behave like couples in media romances.
In a normal relationship there is no new drama every day and people are not madly in love from one second to the other normaly

| @Wrathberry84 Well i mean i feel this show is the bad kind of unrealistic. I mean they are just annoying to watch and i find myself cringing 99% of the time i watch it its just unbearable at this point. |
| Heh, when I remembered what this episode was gonna be about I got excited as I don't typically watch a ton of anime with parents and parenting covered. In most shows one or both parents of main characters are away the entire time or dead. So for a show I was already enjoying quite a bit to try and tackle it I thought might be really good. Unfortunately, my feelings on this episode are largely mixed. And it's mainly about Ishimori's dad. The show tried to have its cake and eat it too with him. To an extent he came across to me as a walking caricature I'm sorry to say. Like John Lithgow in Footloose only it's not 1984 anymore, ya know? But then of course at the end he has the tearful realization of his mistakes, only possible through Ishimori's growing strength and courage brought about by her friends. It's a nice and feel-good ending, but the way we got there could have been handled better. I know there'd be no conflict in the scenario I'm about to lay out so whatever, lol, but how about when dad sees her with them at karaoke he briefly walks over, demand they stop by the house a night in the near future, and her friends demonstrate that they care for her and all that jazz instead? It's a bit sappy, but wouldn't feel out of place in this universe. He'd at least look more reasonable. I dunno, I'm not a parent, and never will be one, but If I one day found out my daughter had been bullied like that and chose not to come to me, regardless of the reasoning, I'd absolutely consider myself a failure as a father. Now if we get that sort of self-reflection next week and it's handled well I'll be impressed. But my guess is we're not getting that, lol. Interesting idea, and overall I still like this series, but again, this could have been better. |

| This episode is a good episode that goes over the premise of having an overly protective parent, and being sheltered due to it. I can somewhat relate to this; as when you're stuck in that negative bubble, it feels near impossible to escape it. Now, this could of been flushed out much more than it was. It felt a bit rushed, when it should have time to slowly go through all options and see Uka battle the idea of telling her father the truth about her junior years. I feel as though it would of came across more genuinely. Same with Kojima being asked, and confronted, by Miura about helping Ishimori. She shouldn't of been teleported in for plot convenience. We could of gotten an episode where Kojima thinks on the idea of helping Uka; seeing some things she relates to, and not wanting her to revert back to the shy annoying child she once was.. then finally gets up and decides to save Uka. Kai could of had an episode alone to figure out a strategy to help Uka, as Kai doesn't want to save Uka, but instead wants to support Uka as she grows into a strong and confident person. Every parent does whatever they can to help their child, but we are all human; and this is especially the case in Japan. Talking about your feelings, your emotions, or asking for help, is very difficult as there's a sense of honor one tries to uphold.. even if it is meaningless. No one wants to be a burden; Ultimately, this story is meant to bring in drama to build Ishimoris character and backstory and, although rushed through, it does its job well. |
