At Home Dad (ep 2 and 3)

by DumbOtaku on January 17, 2009

After the first episode you can kind of tell what is going to happen. Basically, going to be a complete role reversal.  However, I am very curios as to what is going to happen in the future because I expected a several episodes for the role reversal to be complete while both husband and wife ease into the trasition.  I just complete episode 3 and it is complete.

In episode two Kazuyuki(dad that was laid off) is met with the harsh reality he doesn’t know what he is doing when it comes to house work and finally by the end he asks his stay at home dad neighbor to show him how things are done and finally starts to come around.  At the same time Miki(wife) is having a hard time adjusting to the role as bread winner of the family, but by the end she pretty much has it.

In episode three you would expect more learning of doing house work as Kazuyuki messes up more and more things.  However, he pretty much understands and gets how to do a lot of the chores and a lot of cooking at this point.  What is really surpriseing is they have jumped into the cliche arguments and problems of the role reversal.

General problems

  • Working Late
  • “Possible” Cheating
  • Forgetting Anniversaries
  • Appreciation of staying at home.

With the plotline moving so fast I am very curios what the future holds for this show because to me episode 3 should have been a couple episodes aroune 5 or 6.  I still recommend this show because it is and interesting interpretation of a role reversal and is a good fun clean comedy to watch.  Also beware the neighbor that gets up in everybody’s business, you know who I am talking about.

Here are some more screen caps of the show.
