Still - not quite sure how this series going to pan out - I of course got them all - but it jumps at odd paces and I don't quite get some of the transitions - it's still cute and so true to life at some points it's crazy but still.. perhaps a better transitioning

Charming!

This series is honestly so cute! Most likely because Rin is SUCH a sweetheart!

The little twists and turns in this one were a little expected from me but I’m glad they happened. They were the responsible choices to make and I’m glad they were made.

Another delightful volume! I am loving this slice of life and how we are seeing Rin grow and get more confident! I am also enjoying Daikichi struggles with parenthood and simple life! But really wanting to put Rin's life first and what she wants!

I don't really have anything new to say about this volume? Still enjoying watching Daikichi and Rin's relationship build and Daikichi progressing through Parenting: the Joy and Challenges of. I'm very fond of Rin, precocious sweetheart that she is. Favourite moments were Daikichi's conversation with his dad about the sacrifices his mother made to raise him and the ponytail scene with Rin and Daikichi. 4 stars

*4 stars*

Just as lovely and enjoyable as the first but had much greater development of characters and semblance of plot. These are so addicting and cute that I'm probably going to be flying through this series in no time.

I first started reading Bunny Drop back in 2012 and thought it was really cute, so I bought all the volumes up to 7 (which were all that had been published in English at the time). The story and characters go a bit downhill once Rin reaches her teen years, so I actually only ever read through volume 6, but always kind of meant to go back and continue the series eventually. Cut to years later and I learned about the problematic turn the story takes by the end:
Spoilerafter being taken in and raised by Daikichi since the age of 6 Rin suddenly discovers that she loves him, and despite his misgivings he agrees to marry her after she graduates high school. While not ~technically~ incest, it's still pretty disturbing since Daikichi was essentially Rin's father for 10+ years, and there's a 25 year age difference between them.


Despite that, I've had fond memories of the first few volumes and still owned volumes 1-7 for almost a decade. I needed to decide whether to keep or unhaul the manga, so I finally re-read and completed the unread portions of the manga, since there's only ten volumes. And yeah, it for sure goes downhill after volume 4, and the uncomfortable topic begins in volume 8. I am sort of glad to finally have finished the series and seen for myself how the story devolves. While I do genuinely still like the beginning of this series, I won't be rating any of them because I don't want to encourage anyone to begin reading without knowing the trajectory the story takes, and I don't really want to further support an author who would write this kind of storyline (I read the last three volumes I didn't already own through online scans).

For new readers, I would definitely suggest stopping either after volume 4 or volume 7. Both of those volumes have decent ending points without any of the weirdness of the final volumes. But also this is one of those cases where you should definitely know spoilers before deciding to start reading.

What a fun series! I love Daikichi and his determination to raise Rin by himself. This is a quiet series, with emphasis on character development. It is fun to watch as Daikichi is forced to grow up and provide an emotionally stable home for Rin. It's even more gratifying to see him want to raise her because he has come to care for her like a daughter. Great series!
