Listen to me, girls, I'm your father!

"Yuuta Segawa, a college student, suddenly becomes the guardian of his three nieces in place of his sister and her husband. The eldest niece, Sora, is a 14 year old 10th grader with semi-long brownish hair decorated with a ribbon. The middle niece, Miu, is an elementary schoolgirl with blond pigtails. The youngest niece, Hina, is an angelic 3 year old attending daycare. This at-home romantic comedy illustrates the chaotic but heartwarming lives of these four characters in their tiny one-room apartment." -Via Crunchyroll

I found the first episode quite good ~

I'm looking forward to another episode. It almost seems to be an ecchi Usagi Drop in a way. Probably won't be as heartwarming, but it could end up being close.

The title's a tad misleading though...

I've read some of the manga, and enjoyed it thus far. ^^

I didn't know what the heck the thread was about until I clicked on it. I can only imagine the girls going, "No, it can't be true, that's impossible!" And father going, "Search your heart, you KNOW it to be true!", and then, "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

Uh... anyway. I think the Japanese title would be more recognizable. Also, I saw some screencaps of this and it looks like this is going to be the heart attack-inducing anime of the season. Darn it, they're so adorable.

I'm kinda worried now. Not for whether the show is going to be enjoyable but...

Spoiler:
As I recall... Their plane crashed, and no bodies were recovered. There's no *proof* they're dead, and I sort of expect them to return later in the story.

:cry:

That's further enforcing this could turn out to be an ecchi sort of Usagi Drop. I'm REALLY looking forward to future episodes now...

I thought the plane just went missing and the parents declared dead, it wasn't actually a crash. I could be wrong.

Well then, you know the rule of anime:

Spoiler:
If somebody is mysteriously missing, they ARE alive and WILL eventually turn up so in the story. It's just a matter of when.

Finally watched Episode 1.

....

HNNNNNGH.

^^

They really are cute, and in a nicely different way. Good to have that kind of thing sometimes.

*Totally ships the Reika route*

Anyone else think the characters' lips are kind of weird? Sometimes it looks fine, but I noticed pretty quickly that when their mouths are closed, I get an involuntary impression that something is wrong with their lips. I'll have to watch it again to try describing it, but I know I couldn't pin it down the first time...

I loved it, Hina might kill me from cuteness overload when it's all over.

Episode 2 was great ~

Spoiler:
Even though I knew it was coming, the way they did it really managed to pull at my emotions T_T

That's pretty awesome that he's doing that for them. His sister raised him well.

I can imagine things are going to get pretty difficult from here on out though.

Compared to Chihayafuru, this show does nothing to me :P

Miu and Miu
Both precocious. Both entertaining. Coincidence? I wonder...
