This is "Must See" anime for those with children, those without children and those thinking of children. The anime brought a wonderful surface exploration of the transition of personal awareness from self of self to self as parent and self of primary family. The anime examines an immediate "immersion" into one parent family life in a unique way. Some real tough topics are approached in a heart-felt manner that can really leave you thinking or laughing or crying... or any combination.
The exploration of parenting as a sacrifice or an expansion of a person's life is conducted via very
...
interesting ways. We get to see glimpses into a few perspectives through the story line. I must say that there are some common experiences in parenting that are found in the story line that just make "Usagi Drop a dear "gem".
While exploring the title prior to watching it, I noticed it was generally classified as Josei. I have had little experience with this genre that I am aware. I am happy to report I will be looking for more Josei titles.
Although my parenting years are long past, as my children are adults now, I still vividly recalled memories and feelings from those times while watching this warming series. Enjoy!
