In my opinion, Buddy Daddies defies expectations as the original anime of the season. Often compared to Spy X Family or generic BL tropes, it is some of but simultaneously none of that. Refreshingly, its take on the meaning of family, responsibility and love are taken seriously, despite its hilarious premise, and does not shy away from its dark themes. Buddy Daddies contains a perfect balance of heart-warming family scenes, incredibly attractive characters and graphic violence with fairly realistic consequences (aside from how and why Rei never gets turned into honeycomb). For those not comfortable with brightly coloured, well animated but bloody bloody fight scenes, ... that may not be for you. But for the young adult audience who doesn’t mind a few adult moments or aren’t triggered by LOTS of guns, you will have a blast. Heck, it even makes me want to have a child for myself. If the Japanese government have sponsored this anime to entice people to raise families, it’s nearly working. Masterpiece indeed!
