Shocking when there's container for dropping teeth existed. lol @ how Rin's teeth fell finally. Rin's front has hole is lol! It was a nice final ep. UN-GO airs in Usagi Drop's time slot. |

| A nice final episode indeed. One of the things about this anime I find is the amazing presentation of parental nurturing that it portrays. It truly does more so with the art and coloring it offers out. It is kind of the pleasant colored one that it feels like. This anime is a most excellent tool for parents or just people that are plain interested in the struggles of suddenly being responsible for a kid. It is therefore recommended that this be shown to any family that has a kid or new parents. It really teaches out a lot. This being said the series gets a 10/10 Masterpiece from me. Like Steins Gate, this anime in its genre totally impressed me and Rin is the cutest thing out there yet. In regards to the episode, Yukari shot my MOE meter at the following,  OMG, too sexy for me. Messed up hair and all. In other news Rin's smile with her 2 teeths lost in the following,  does not make her look like a cat but instead she looks like a chipmunk. It really does look like that. |

| Well, that's it. |
| An absolutely fantastic ending to one of the best shows ever. It's only been a year. A year! Just look at how much Rin has matured and opened up. Daikichi's become one great father to her as well. I tell ya, if you don't feel any sort of joy from watching this anime you're doing something wrong. |

| I also gave this series a 10. I had a 9, but.. how could I NOT give it a 10 after seeing Rin smile without her 2 front teeth. It made me laugh. AND Rin is the cutest kid or anime character out there that I have seen. Great series. Cant believe its over. well.. at least we have 4 specials to look forward to! |
 |
| Damn..... So simple.... yet fucking fantastic. Easily one of the best this year. Went from a 9 to a 10. Daikichi just topped over Homura for me as character of the year. He went from a single man to an amazing father. The episode shows how far life can change in a year. How everyone can change. That's what makes it so great. NO SECOND SEASON. |

| And so it ends. Truly splendid series. Simple yet memorable ending. Can't help but laugh when Rin smiled with two teeth missing. :D 9/10.. ^^ |

| So, does this ends different from the manga? I kinda want to know what canonical ending was. |

| yeah.. 10/10. awesome. just...awesome. This is such an uplifting and genuinely sweet story. It's so meaningful in it's simplicity. Brilliant show. |

Yumekichi11 This anime is a most [b said: excellent tool for parents or just people that are plain interested in the struggles of suddenly being responsible for a kid. It is therefore recommended that this be shown to any family that has a kid or new parents. It really teaches out a lot. Its pretty clear the author had some experience around kids, but the series makes it look to easy (even with all the things Daikichi had to change in his life). Rin is like the perfect little girl. She didn't really have any behavioral problems, was always sweet, and really smart for her age. While you see little kids with those attributes, its rare you see all of them all the time in one kid unless its secretly a god child xD Kids cry, have temper tantrums, get grumpy after a long day... even the best behaved ones. They can be picky with food, or impatient waiting to do things. I didn't really see any of these negative traits come out in Rin. Not to mention it showed child rearing at a point when Rin was already relatively mature and independent for her age. Caring for babies is a whole different story- its almost impossible to function as a single working parent since often times you get 1-2 hours or less of sleep every night since babies don't care what time it is when they wake up. Having a functional sleep schedule won't come till at least a year xD Very little can prepare you for just how difficult child rearing is- the last episode did explain that having a child you have no time for yourself anymore, and that your time is your time taking care of children- but the actual process takes a tremendous amount of love, patience, and endurance. I still enjoyed it and it made me feel warm inside. This series made me home sick for my 4 year old sister who is very similar to Rin, but I've recently moved from PA to TX so I don't get to see her. My 2 and 7 year old brothers are too much like Kouki though xD Anyways, back on topic. I wish the series wasn't over. I wanted more to happen with the mother, more backround information about the affair, romance for Daisuki (he would make a good daddy for Kouki xD)- and just more life experience for Rin because seeing her smile makes me happy. God... I hate short season syndrome.... SSS kills another good anime in its prime >.< |

| So-so ending of very hear-warming and touching anime. Easily 8/10. |
 |
| This was just too cute :3 It was so simple yet so amazing :3 Now need S2 |
| i need a second season |
| this show pushed some really profound subjects without being preachy. in fact ti does it in a really subtle and nice way. i was hoping her mother would show up all of the sudden but i suppose it would have required the show to be longer than 11 episodes. i wonder how things unfold in the manga. i might read it now. |
| Oh the manga is finished. Hope there`s enough manga for there to be a second season or at least some ovas. This ep was also very adorable :D The soundtrack is great. 10/10. |
 |
| Such a heartwarming and beautiful anime. I just wished that Daikichi would end up with Yukari. 9/10 |
 |
| That's all folks lol at Kouki, he lost a tooth. S2 please 9/10-------->10/10 |
 |
| Daikichi is awesome/10. It's been a bit too "convenient", just like Bluesnow mentioned, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Watching a brat being cheeky wouldn't provide much entertainment. |
| 9/10 overall I demand a second season. I want to see more story development. They can't leave us like this. |
 |
| 10/10. Absolutely loved everything about this show. |

 |
| The ending seemed rather ambiguous about possible relationships for Daikichi. Yukari always seemed like she had some interest but it never really played out. That is a shame because I think Kouki really would have liked to have Daikichi as a stepdad. Plus, Yukari and Daikichi would have made an awesome couple. This ending pretty much said to me "Rin and Daikichi have each other, and that's all that matters". It really ends how it begins. The spark that was the girl tending to the bellflower patch was the girl that would change Diakichi's life forever. Though at times Diakichi has misgivings on the matter. In the end, he has no regrets. He truly has become content with his new life with his flower girl. |

Bluesnow said: I believe the point of that was to take a soft approach disregarding all the negative aspects. Of course that does off false allusion that it looks easy.Yumekichi11 This anime is a most [b said: Its pretty clear the author had some experience around kids, but the series makes it look to easy (even with all the things Daikichi had to change in his life). excellent tool for parents or just people that are plain interested in the struggles of suddenly being responsible for a kid.

While you see little kids with those attributes, its rare you see all of them all the time in one kid unless its secretly a god child xD Bluesnow said: Indeed but the reality of it is something most people watching this would not want. There was some of that but not much. Rin is obvious a role model of a child behaving most well and calmly.Kids cry, have temper tantrums, get grumpy after a long day... even the best behaved ones. They can be picky with food, or impatient waiting to do things. I didn't really see any of these negative traits come out in Rin.

Having a functional sleep schedule won't come till at least a year xD Well that's why Daikichi reduced his working hours to not doing overtime. He was also often under my impression that he was getting a lack of sleep. In fact he mentions in this episode not having time for himself and of getting stressed out a lot more. What does get interesting is that Dakichi mentions to Kasumi that regardless of all that he had to get used to it. Bluesnow said: Indeed but Daikichi demonstrated those positive aspects. He showed also that anyone can adopt a child and move on with it. Perhaps ideally but it's all there.Very little can prepare you for just how difficult child rearing is- the last episode did explain that having a child you have no time for yourself anymore, and that your time is your time taking care of children- but the actual process takes a tremendous amount of love, patience, and endurance. |

| And there comes the probably best anime 2011 to an end. It was truely AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWsome. Personally, I'm not against a second season. If it involves a timejump (which it prolly does), I will see it as standalone, not necessarily as a direct 2nd season. Also, I don't care about what happens in the manga too much. I'm open for stuff, and as long as I agree with the storytelling, I'm fine. |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| Cute final episode. Rin's teeth finally falling out.. xD Going to miss this show.. onto zeh Manga for me. Also UN-GO, I'll be watching that~ |
| Such a brilliant ending to a brilliant show, I loved it :D I wish this has a second season~ Definitelly a 10/10. |
 |
| I can't believe it's over. I don't want it to be over already! Thursday was the best day of the week because of this show. I just makes you feel so happy inside. I'm going to miss the way Rin says Daikichi's name. I'm going to miss Kouki doing all the things Daikichi did as a kid and the way they're so funny together. I'll miss all of it. This is one anime I won't forget anytime soon. 9/10. |
    |
| I gotta say this show was okay for me. I'll give it a 9/10 overall. I guess I was expecting some angst somewhere maybe the mom wanting to take Rin back or the grandfather wasn't the father or Rin dies or Daikichi gets married to that woman just...something you know. The climax just didn't for me. The show stayed sweet and cute and I suppose that's okay sometimes but it's kind of a let down for me. Granted I haven't read the manga so I don't know if there's more to the story then what I've just seen. |
 |
| great last episode, just loved it, they never actually carried on/ extended daikichix yukari, but hey, this anime was about him and rin, and gotta say, it was a master piece!!! Hoppy said: 9/10-------->10/10 exactly the same for me, 10/10, relly would like a second season, as i am gonna miss an anime with such orignality, from artwork to the actual concept.... RIN WAS SOOO CUTE AT THE END TOO!!!! XD |
 |
| Daikichi x Yukari seems fairly obvious to me. Anyway, a heartwarming show. I thought we'll get to see Rin grow up more. Something like a teenager that finished high school with good grades and everything goes well, happy end etc. Gotta say though, after episode 6 the series somewhat lost the charm I initially felt for it. I actually got bored in some of the episodes. |
| Did you like my avatar, perv? |
| One of the best animes this season. And the cutest! >.< I loved everyone~ mainly Kouki, he was awesome! lol I hope there will be a season 2! im looking forward to the specials. ^.^ |
| 💕 |
ins-chan said: No. No second season. NO. It has to remain that sweet, warm and, uh, naive anime series as it is. I've looked to the ending chapter and... uh. Don't do it. Anime is perfect, it ends perfectly and there's no need to change it. Timeskip can be cut out and have an alternate ending. |
|
| Very good series that improves the original material with fantastic direction, atmosphere and voice acting while tackling some interesting (and seldom seen in anime) themes nicely. Guess there'll never be any second season though or people will rage like they've never raged before (I may be the only one to really like the change of genre and even the ending of the manga proably ;)). 9/10 |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| No S2 please. I want Usagi Drop to remain innocent. with No.6 falling out from the top with their WTF ending & with Usagi Drop not being the best, it's really up to Mawaru Penguin Drum, & perhaps Kamisama Dolls to put meaning in their season (summer) |
 |
| This had been a 10 for me since about episode 3, so I can't raise my score. What a sweet ending to the first season. Having spoiled myself a bit, I know what would come in season 2, but I would still like to see it--just to understand what the author's vision was. Although I know it would upset some of the commentators above I would like to see the true end. Rest in spoiler although even there I will not be too specific. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| Well, Usagi Drop was a consistently enjoyable series. Every episode was great and heartwarming in some way. 9/10 Hoping for a second season that But that'd never happen. ;_; |
