where nearly every episode seems to have some part where the comedy drops out completely so a teenaged girl can browbeat her own dad for not being an effective provider.

the scenario in question happened in literally one episode, not "nearly every episode", and this is unfairly reductive of a genuinely interesting family situation the show puts time and care into expanding on

Manami, the class rep char, owns. she 's a talented and diligent student who's being sought after by extracurricular groups but she pushes personal opportunities away so she can work a side job and take care of her younger siblings. we see her emotional motivation for this in ep 4 which also sets up the parallel between her grandfather and her father; he wants to be a painter but doesn't have enough faith in himself to make it his job. on the other hand he doesn't drop his hobby to focus on being a single father of five kids and support them all financially. instead he works part-time and relies on government welfare that comes in because of his youngest child's medical condition.

if her dad worked full-time, Manami wouldn't have to take a part-time job and could take interest in extracurricular activities, but she loves her family and is completely fine with taking care of everyone while he chases his dream of painting. she has a problem with him sitting on the fence because it's not helping either of them and that's an understandable conflict, not 'browbeating'. it's a realistic portrayal of an imperfect but loving household. we also see how they drop the conversation when the young kids wake up, and every other scene with the family shows Manami and her dad being loving and patient with the triplets and it's cute.

I think it's cool to see the interplay between large-scale worldbuilding, local drama, and cute slice-of-life content, and Manami's family is a good example of the show tying these aspects together.

nothing about it bothers me. the inherent comedic value of "the main character is a horse below the waist" punctuating the depiction of otherwise ordinary highschool girls exploring the idea of body image, is good. the anime sure had fun with the camera pov in that scene, too.

interesting-looking workplace comedy about a girl who roleplays as a sadist at a themed cafe where other character waitresses are offered, such as Imouto, Onee-san, Tsundere, and Idol(♂)


no but really, this guy is voiced by the same seiyuu as Nico from Love Live.

the cast seems balanced between boys and girls, servers and chefs/managers, so it seems it'll be similar to Working! as a workplace comedy. The anime will be handled by A-1 Pictures, and directed by the ex-gainax animator who did the Gurren Lagann Parallel Works short where Viral is the protagonist and fights bandit-lord Kamina
