These four little specials are so cute. At five minutes each they're a perfect filler between episodes. Usagi Drop has been named as a slice of life anime, well these little shorts are like a slice out of that first slice of life!

I think these episodes followed on beautifully from the parent anime, the sound and the style seemed the same to me, as did the characters. Of course in five minutes you can't always expect the same character development from what you get from something twenty minutes long.

Although I would have loved to have seen something like the Episode 3.5 "Dear My Santa Claus" ... developed into a longer Christmas Special it was still really beautiful. But at the same time those Christmas Specials are done by everyone these days so in a way it was probably best they kept it short and sweet and only showed another reference of the care, respect and love Rin and Daikichi have for one another and how they react to another new event in their new relationship.

I'm going to end my review by mentioning that making these short episodes was a much better idea than trying to condense these extra scenes into the parent anime and I'd definitely watch them again and again, just like I will the main Usagi Drop episodes.
