Episode 02.5 - For a 5 minute short, I have to say that this OVA surprised me quite a bit. Usagi drop had to be one of the best slice of life series that’s aired this year, and this OVA further reinforces that notion. Who would’ve thought that collecting autumn leaves could be so much [...]

Daikichi is a single, never married, thirty-something male who takes the responsibility of raising Rin, a five year old girl who was in the care of his grandfather who passed away. Nobody in the family wanted her, so Daikichi took responsibility. The setup of Usagi Drop sounds close to a Hallmark Hall of Fame type [...]

Oh, man. It’s finally over. I find that this “not being able to let go” feeling quite recursive during the end-of-season period. Usagi Drop, like Nichijou before it, and probably Dantalian no Shoka (if I ever get around to finishing that up) after it really will forever be counted in my books as a gem. [...]

After eleven glorious episodes, the bunny has finally dropped. It seemed like just yesterday that Daikichi (and we) met Rin for the first time. What a journey it has been – the laughs, tears, Kouki’s loose tooth, and the dramatic undertone of it all. Since Usagi Drop was such a great series that I felt [...]

I waited quite a while to do this review, so I hope I don't do it injustice. This anime isn't exactly fresh in my mind. However, the need to get it off my drive and into my archives eventually got me to writing. This was another slice-of-life coming-of-age story, as many before it - the twist, however, was that it was a 30-year-old man that was coming of age, aided by the responsibilities of

I’m so SAD!!! The anime has ended!!! Daikichi and Rin are just so sweet together. I’m currently reading the manga and I am already up to the bit where Rin has grown up. It’s a bit weird to see her as an adult but I’m keen to finish it. Do we know whether there are [...]

  Now that another impressive noitaminA adaptation has come to an end, and an incomplete one at that, I’d like to share a simple wish. And it isn’t like this is a desire for a complete overhaul of what remains of the anime industry in its broken, tattered form. But rather a striving for more [...]

I like the anime. I gave it a perfect score from being consistent and realistic to the issues that they want to convey. Parenting, raising a child, the implication on the lifestyle, ageing, it hits you good when you undergone those moments in your life. The anime ended nicely. But they’re a lot of things that the Anime can tell. As a fan of [...]

Usagi Drop proves that good characters and a solid story never go out of fashion. It divorces itself from so many anime tropes – big eyes, sparkles, eyecatches – that it seems hard to understand why it was animated in the first place. With both the time-spanning manga and feature film recently released, like Kimi [...]

Whether or not the series will continue adapting what the manga has no longer feels important to me. The anime started with Daikichi as a carefree salary man with nothing much to worry about and slowly he turned into someone who was constantly feeling inadequate and unconfident about his parenting skills and worrying about the [...]
