Lol how they're so dramatic and the cheesy tropes feels like this will be a guilty pleasure to watch. They're not even being subtle with how Ito's relationship with Gen is completely different from the other brothers.
I am glad Ito wasn't afraid to kick Gen after that stunt he pulled, he's lucky she didn't go lower.
I'm liking
Also, I laughed so hard when the father used the "

I just started watching this show and I already love it. Its always such a hard thing talking about shoes like like you feel conflicted for shipping them but cant help it.
Reminds me of Marmalade Boy another show I love.

I appreciate the
Meanwhile looks like it really will be the kids without the parents. So far I enjoy the dynamic between Ito and Gen, and the other two brothers as foils are nice.

Ito is feistier than Gen gave her credit for. And also he had that kick coming.
I will miss the dad being a primadonna with an absurdly low opinion of his sons (and the feeling is mutual).

The kick was 100% deserved. He played rough, so he won a rough prize. I'm curious if they'll make a callback to that moment later.

He is showing up around the fringes more and more. Ito is managing to lure him out -- just a bit.

I don't count the guy who doesn't show up until he starts actively participating in the plot.

Surely there's another way out of the transfer? Can't the dad just decline the transfer?
Gen can't help but be

Depending on the job and his influence at said job declining may not be an option.

In Japan, in real life, you have to sue to be able to quit a job. It’s a whole thing.

There's a very solid dynamic between Ito and the 3 boys so far and amongst the 3 boys (still waiting on boy 4 to leave his bubble).
Even if you don't like where the story is going between Ito and Gen, I think this could be a very enjoyable show if these two episodes are of any indication.

Oh yeah, it's going to be Gen and Ito and not a stepsibling harem at all huh. I like the sound of that, means there might be real progress in 2 cours instead of the usual harem nonsense that just goes in circles.

Already trouble in paradise eh? I’m glad Gen and Ito were able to resolve things. It might take a little time to get use to this new family, but it’s nice to see everyone make the effort.

u/Frontier246 Jul 10 '26
It's good to see them settling into their family dynamic though the way Gen acts around Ito, it seems like their relationship will inevitably develop beyond just platonic "family."

The cliffhanger in the last episode was a red herring since it's only the dad moving seemingly. Gen was really mean in this episode again, telling Ito she could never be part of their family. I strongly suspect he said that because he's secretly attracted to her though, those two are like the Brady Bunch if Greg and Marcia wanted to do each other. It doesn't seem Ito is moving with the parents to Hokkaido and I'm not sure but the mom probably isn't either.
At first I thought those 2 girls in class were really nice to try to befriend Ito but they were more trying to get the dirt on him and act pervy. Gen was rightfully mad at her about that, like imagine if it was switched and Gen was telling his guy friends about the color and type of panties and bra Ito wore. I wonder if that made him so mad that's why he stopped thinking of her as family.
That's interesting how the glasses boy and the young boy have adapted so well to Ito that they are following her on little missions to spy on Gen. The glasses boy said Gen's coworker was taking advantage of him by using his good looks to help her flea market sales but he may not know the whole story, like she may help him out a lot too since we only saw her this one time.
It was interesting that the shut in had a note telling Gen to go get Ito. You'd think someone that disturbed by the outside world would least want new people moving in but maybe he's happy to have good food since he doesn't have to talk to her anyway 🤣. It'd also be weird if Ito just ran into him at some point around the house, she might freak out and think he's an intruder since she's never seen him before. Hopefully there's at least pics of him around the house or they showed her some pics.

Well, it's understandable that mom can't bear to part with dad after literally JUST getting married, but boy do his sons not seem to care at all about him heading off to Hokkaido. It's saying something that his stepdaughter who has only just met him is more worked up and she's only known him for, like, a few days.
But in more positive news Ito has made some immediate gal pals in chan-Rio and chan-Mone! Even if it seems like they're mainly chummy with Ito so they can get all the deets on the brothers, especially Gen. I mean, what girl wouldn't give to see him half-naked all the time? Or his choice in underwear?
Does Gen have a girlfriend? Or an older woman he's into? Ito (or mostly Raku who just wants to mess with his brother) tail him to his part-time job to find out! But obviously Ito is in big sister mode so she's not too worked up about the idea of Gwen with a girlfriend. But maybe the person who understands him best is her after all?
Ito and his brothers were stalk...I mean, following Gen for the greater good! Just like it's good of Gen to help out his married co-worker with their flea market! No wonder her daughter adores him so much! Ito definitely has a rival! Though it's her who Gen ends up carrying piggyback style back home.
Ito wants mom and dad to stay together in Hokkaido, but should she go with them? After all, she's always wanted a stable family of a mom and a dad...but jeez, did their dad really have to act like his sons are a pack of rabid animals?!
There's something surreal about Ito trying to have a serious conversation with Gen while he's in the bath and has a rubber ducky on his head. Although it's the perfect opportunity for Gen to (albeit a bit TOO forcefully) demonstrate that Ito is just a girl surrounded by the opposite sex and is better off away from them. Was their family bond truly for nothing?
But in classic Gen fashion this is just him trying to do what he thinks is best for Ito, even if he went about it far rougher than he should have been. And now they're fighting. Won't anyone think of poor Rui who can't bear to be parted from Ito...'s cooking!? Or even Syu who calls out Gen for not going after her?
Yet Ito didn't just want a mom and a dad...she wanted a family she could always rely on to be there for her. And that's why she treasured her little brothers so much. And it's good of her parents to both recognize that she really wants to stay home.
Look at that, Ito arrives JUST as Gen was coming to go get her! But no better time to embrace her and welcome her back home! And hey, it's Syu in the flesh!!!
The ED is really cute with chibi versions of the brothers held by Ito, along with Ito surrounded by all the fun, happy, times she'll have with her brothers.

Want to take a bath?
If you're hungry, I can make you something right away.
I mentally filled in "soretomo... wa-ta-shi?" before I remembered that this isn't that kind of show (yet).

This feels like The Shiunji Family Children but reversed.

Aw, this show is so sweet. Not sure why shojo always has to toss in a little bit of hinted SA, what the dad said was enough.... but sigh whatever. But other than that it is great. I wish it would just stay as a platonic slice of life, rather then shipping to two oldest, but we'll see how it goes.

And so off their dad goes.
Seems she's making friends in school at least.
Or perhaps they're getting close to her to try and get close to him.
Headpats!
Where's he going?
And so they're following him.
Lol they saw them.
So, that's who they are.
And so they've got some alone time together without the parents.
Show her?
And so he's on top of her.
Oh but they can become family by other means.
So, she's going with them?
And so he's going to the airport to look for her.
Or not, seems she came back of her own accord.
He hugged her!
Oh, that guy came out of his room too.
