feels every chapter the story went to another direction and i don't know what to expect to this, not in good way. the character also really not consistent. make me remember hungry marie and cop & dolphin.

The story is nice and all, but a lot of plot and isn't really getting assimilated yet. Maybe its too soon to say.
I wonder why Mamoru was narrating for a while in chapter 3
Let's see how this follows up

So no time-skip like I expected, instead a chapter focusing on him raising Mamoru.

He really didn't notice Mamoru wasn't smiling anymore until looking at the photos? Like, in those photos he couldn't be anymore clearly unhappy, moving around in his harness and crying, he really didn't notice his baby was upset while walking around with him? For someone who's entire character is gushing over how much he loves his wife and baby, that's a baffling oversight on his part. I do kinda like the idea of the message (I'm iffy on that too) but they execution here didn't work for me at all.

Mamoru was cute in several of the panels though, so it wasn't a complete waster.

kinda worried for the direction of this manga, I heard somewhere the stories kinda being made up as we go, and the characterization of WasTE is just ass. i like the potential a lot, and hope it comes together soon.

Definitely on track to be a chapter 8 drop for me. Just so horrible cluttered and unfocused.

Oh ok. so it will be "single father" story? Kinda expected from first chapter but now giving timeskip at least before saving Kareri would be weird or axe foreshadowing.

Considering it was his first "free day" after Mamoru got powers it is understable, author definitely wants to portray Sawada as ordinary guy and father who can and will do mistakes and not as perfect selfless father.
Manga recommendation:
- Spy x Family (Ch.109/? - biweekly) | Sakamoto Days (Ch.196/? - weekly)
- MARRIAGETOXIN (Ch.113/? - weekly) | Machi and Oboro (Ch.18/? - biweekly)
- Make the Exorcist Fall in Love (Ch.82/? - biweekly)
- Monochrome Days (Ch.11/? - biweekly)
Anime recommendation:
- Deca-Dence (Finished) | Wave, Listen to Me! (Finished)
- If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die (Finished)
- Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater (Finished)

I get him being happy about that making him a little more oblivious, but I don't believe it could make someone ignore the fact their baby spent all day crying or whining right on your chest. I believe most people would notice that.

If we saw the day and showed thoughts of him acknowledging it and brushing it aside because Mamoru's still just adjusting to it, that would've made much more sense. Like, just have him have the little talk to Mamoru about how he's sorry but this is better than giving him up to the facility during or after the walk. It still accomplishes the same exact thing of showing him as not a perfectly selfless father who makes mistakes. I don't see what the benefit of making him ignorant of Mamoru's clear emotional distress until he looks at the photos, especially since he already knows Mamoru doesn't like them from the night before.

A really mature portret of the daily life struggles with his supernatural baby. Great storytelling.
