Definitely my favorite manga of all time. It's so sweet, a very nice and easy slice of life following this little girl and her adoptive father. Yotsuba is hilarious and honestly so relatable for a 5 year old child. Koiwai (the father) is a very good parental figure to her, and you can tell he's just trying his best as a single father who works from home. The supporting characters fit very well in the world and their interactions with Yotsuba always leave me with a smile. The art style is simple, and fits the story very well (plus Yotsuba's expressions are great).

If you're ... looking for something genuinely light-hearted or maybe even as an escape from this hell world we live in, I highly suggest it!

Yandere stories aren't uncommon in this type of media, so I was expecting some messed up stuff, but I think what really bothered me the most was that it was a romance story between a high schooler and an 8 year old girl. Like, I felt like I shouldn't have owned this manga - I returned it as soon as I realized that's what it was about. She kidnaps this little girl and falls in love with her, and I read up on the Wikipedia that they end up getting married. Plus, there's sexual assault and obviously very graphic murder that happens. That's so messed ... up.

But hey, if ur a fan of children being forced into romantic relationships with people who murder and assault others, you'll love it.
