This animation is very educational on child abuse and domestic violence and how we can recognize all the silent signs of seeking help in children and adults.
ABSOLUTELY YES. like the dentist who takes an hour now for every child patient 😭😭
I don’t get what’s happened in this video
@@pixiedust2082 you got to understand the whole story, this is just a part of it.
A sad story but still trying to give some postive energy
@@pixiedust2082 she is dead and he is lying to him that his mothet will come see him again.
@@pixiedust2082 Karino (adult) finds the name of Kotaro's (boy) mother written on the tombstone, she is buried with her parents. Kotaro went to the graveyard just to visit his grandparents
Can we just appreciate how awesome Karino is. At the beginning of the show, he gave the image of an irresponsible and aloof man but he is such a parent material. I absolutely loved the relationship between him and Kotaro. It was so lovely how he never let Kotaro alone out in fear of sth might happen to him. And this scene.. just broke me...
All thé neighboors mizuki karino tamaru and dakei are awesome
Yes, kotaro wasn't his kid or his responsibility in the first place but he did so much for kotaro and help him. Props to karino
My favorite thing about Karino is that he literally just decided to be Kotaro's guardian on a whim because he asked a general question and realized he was holding everyone but himself to a standard. And he doesn't seek to tell this young abuse victim that he can count on him; he shows it first and allows Kotaro to gravitate to him through his actions and showing up. It's such a wonderful indictment on community and its ability to fix broken people by simply showing up. He understands that Kotaro has no reason to believe anyone will show up for him bcoz those who brought him into the world didn't do it, so he just hangs around until he realizes it as fact
this shows the truth in actions speak louder then words" all of us would "say" we'd help kotaro ..but truth is in all honesty would we "act" on it? ..everyone in his apartment doenst "say it" the "do it" they protect him love him and are more of a Family then his family ...they even will at the cost of being hated "lie" to him to keep him safe and happy
Karino might’ve felt it was better since it was a new neighbor and the reports of kidnapping were higher he thought it was required as a neighbor to help out. Or it’s because they both lost their parents so he felt responsibility.
this makes me cry because I know at some point Kotaro will find out and he will get upset with him for lying
I know ☹️I wish he had have said “I hope so” or something like that 😭😭
He may already know. Like when he got the lady dunk to find the truth about about the money. He was like, thanks for looking out for my feelings
@@arturopacheco89 kotaro thinks his mother sends it and is still alive, he doesn’t know how insurance work soooo
@MilkyyCreamii still a kid tho, so he’ll most likely be upset and yell/ or avoid him for awhile. until kotaro admits he understands but it still hurts and doesn’t know what to do now. It’ll be a very touching episode and I’m both scared and nervous to see if that happens but not yet.
@MilkyyCreamii Possibly. But humans can't exactly remove all emotion in a situation
There's an argument to be said that Kotaro already knows what's going on here just from his innate ability of context and attention to detail. But maybe Kotaro just doesn't want to accept the reality, because well he's a kid.
And I think Karino knows that, even if Kotaro knows the truth Karino won't move because everyone has a breaking point. And the worst thing you could do to this kid is let him face the cold hard reality without guidance. Even adults aren't always ready for that kind of trauma, let alone an already abused kid.
Kotaro may already knows but still in denial of his mother's death. A bitter pill to swallow but in the end even if he already find out about it, Kotaro already become what he is now an adult with huge responsibility in his back.
@@hartantoanggoro Totally agree, he's in the denial phase of his grief.
I'm pretty sure he doesn't know.. he is still a kid and even if he has great observant skills he is still oblivous to many things throughout the show.
You put it so well. I almost when crazy cause I had far too many breaking points without proper guidance. I may had depression, and almost gone crazy, but I am still sane which makes me feel very, very odd like why am I good enough to be sane? Is there something in it for me? Its not like I can put my trauma into words and inspire others to love life and move on. Its not that easy. Its... It feels really, really weird at some point. Cause I have the memory of breaking down so bad, but I forgot how I got through it, alone.
It's not outright said but just like how this series has a lot of things implied instead of actually said, you can tell that Kotaro actually knows to an extent that his mom is dead.
There are two hints:
He is asking his dead grandparents to tell his mom that he is well. This is not because he thinks they can somehow impart this message to his living mom, but is instead because he knows she's dead and he's keeping alive the last memory he has of her when she left him. He is basically keeping the lie alive so he does not fall into despair. Given how his mother doesn't want to see him, it would make sense for somebody like Kotaro to think spirits can talk to their fellow souls and that his mom wouldn't be there listening to his prayers thus talking to his grandparents instead to pass the message.
The other hint is when he sees the mom and child and then turns to ask Karino if he'll meet his mom again. Normally, scenes like these are found in Japanese stories with drama, but the environment plays a part on the implication. If the person is alive, the scene often happens in a place other than a cemetery or we get to see the grave not being of the person by the end as the "twist". Here, we are implicitly told it's also her grave instead. This implies that Kotaro's question is meant to be taken as whether or not WE (the viewer) would think that after Kotaro himself dies in the future, will he be able to reunite with his dead mom in heaven.
"Oh this looks like a cute slice of life anime, Imma watch it so I feel good"
*10 episode later*
"And that was a mistake."
"I dont feel so good"
@@benjirivoh You might want to try Way of the Househusband instead. More humor and only a few dark moments.
@@greenliongirl07 I actually watched that right before Kotaro... it kinda lowered my guard and made me expect Kotaro to be just as light-hearted and sweet...
@@snazzydrew Ouran Host Club? Heavenly Official's Blessing?
got that feeling with made in abyss i was like "Thas a cute artstyle i wanna watch that!", and then my kira kira world fall apart
I cried for the whole 10 episodesss
me too...me too
Me to. Me to
Me too buddy.. me too.
tbh i didnt i were more intrigued in the show then i was sad
I don’t get what’s happened in this video
I still think about this kid all the time. I'm dead inside.
Hey. I hope you are fine. Take one step at a time.
yeah right, me too i rewatch some scene ocassionaly i really wanna know the next story, do they have season 2?
@@rudy7803 nah not yet.
Give me a phucking break , he's not real man , grow a spine!!!
@@pokeyerface obviously. You think I sit here and watch Dragon Ball Z and think it's real life? You're delusional.
This series makes me feel thankful and grateful for my parents who took me in. I cried, laugh in every episode. But this hurts me the most, well at least Kotaro saw his real mom. Thank you to the creators of this anime and the author and mangaka of this. Thank you.
I don’t get what’s happened in this video
@@pixiedust2082 he doesn’t know his moms dead and he’s always talking about how he’s gonna see her again or something
Is that his mom? Ya know? His moms name on the grave?
@@MadTargaryen from what i understand the grave was originally his grandma and grandpa's though now his mother was included in it since she is now deceased (you can see her name at the side where Karino cleaned)
@@user-sg5ej1sh1g Yes you're right. It's a family grave (very common in Japan) so they add the names and ashes of the family members once they have passed.
I already kinda knew coz of the money Kotaro receives weekly (from his mom’s insurance) 😭. Usually the pension goes to the “insured’s” dependents in the event of death. But still - this being confirmed as Karino sees the mom’s name engraved in the tomb stone….sends chills up my spine and such longing (I also lost my mom at a young age too)
I was one of those kids who received money after my mom’s death. But I was there when my mom died. While yeah the money was there to help provide for me. It’s not the same as my mom’s love and being able to see her again.
As a person who lost their mom as a kid. This show had me in tears constantly. Growing up fast cause of deaths isn’t something I’d wish on my enemy.
I’m blessed that I got to spend 13 years with her and I always miss her
I’m sorry for your loss.🖤
@@jewellchunn2251 I’m sorry for your loss🖤
Hello can anyone tell me what happened between Kotaro and his mom? Did she abandoned him? Also how did she die if it was ever mentioned?
@@pechaykun5959 it wasn’t clear what happened. It possible that the mom abandoned him and left him with his father who may have continuously abused Kotaro because she left them. There was also a scene where Kotaro explained that his mom used gloves every time she touches her - which could be a sign of her own aversion towards her child. *this is just me trying to bring the pieces together though and it’s in no way canon.
I was shocked when I first learned how he got financial support. I thought she donated it anonymously but i was stunned when it was life insurance money…
I don’t get what’s happened in this video
@@pixiedust2082 I’m not really sure as I have never watched this anime but only clips in this. I believe Kotaro was thinking that he was cleaning his grandparents grave (from his mother’s side), and if her mother comes she would know that Kotaro is alive and healthy. However, when Kotaro wrote her mothers name. It was the same name that was embedded on the stone, meaning her mother had died. This explains how he got money weekly, it was insurance pension(so this explanation from the comments). So, that man was I think hiding the name (or distracting) Kotaro so he would not realize that it was in fact her mothers name written in the grave, so he also lied.
@@naomigracenolasco4976 His*
Please stop changing the pronouns for the same person in the middle of a sentence. You would confuse anyone who wasn't paying close attention or didn't already know what you were talking about.
@@sonniepronounceds-au-ni9287 it's literally not that deep and is a common mistake that people who don't speak English as a first language do. No need to be a prick about it.
@@user-uk1gf1wo3z She used the correct pronouns the first time and then changed it for some reason. This could confuse people reading her comment about who she was referring to. Educating someone of a mistake to help her in her future writing isn't a sin. How can she learn if no one corrects her? If she wants to be plainly understood by English speakers without confusion, then it would be advisable for her to adhere to correct grammar rules. Also, I don't think English is a new language for her. The rest of her grammar is pretty good, especially for a TH-cam comment section. Skimming over it quickly, I see that she forgot two commas, used a period instead of one of the commas, and has one run on sentence. She used the proper punctuation before those mistakes, so she was probably typing fast towards the end. The punctuation mistakes are easy ones to overlook without getting confused. Over all, it's pretty decent.
I find it really sad that Kotaro really loves his mom and wishes to see her again even though she didn't seem to care about him at all. But knowing that this hope is the only connection he has left to his mom, the adults around him don't have the heart to tell him the truth. But eventually he has to know and to come to terms that he'll never get to experience having his mom show love for him back. Otherwise he'll turn into an adult who keeps looking for love in all the wrong places.
That's normal for abused kids. They just want their parents' love.
I think she had her own special way of loving him, just like his father.. they definitely aren't good parents but they do care for kotaro.
Karino will have to tell him the truth. Kotaro found what he was looking for in Karino. Who loves him and will make a good father and guardian.
Well kids can process some traumatizing BS. But they need theire reference person... Telling the Kid how things are and leave him with that fact would break him. You can't also tell If theres the otheres around him are possible reference person in his eyes, thats not how it works. You can't Just come to a Kids life and become one. Thats why abused Kids still look up their abusive Parents.... They are the reference persons .... They give stability (in Kids eye).
Haven't seen this Anime yet, I'm curious
To be honest, I wouldn’t say she didn’t care about him at all (especially based on her last words to him).
This broke me for so long. The fact that he wanted to tell him the truth makes it worse.
Edit: How TF I get so many likes?
Well, not like he really knows if its a lie or not, no one knows what happens after death.
@@Kuroganemk2 what do you mean
I don’t get what’s happened in this video
@@pixiedust2082 the child went to his grand parents grave with his neighbour, then he said his mother name and right after that his neighbour seen it's name engraved under him, because the kid thought his mother is still alive so he cover it and lie that someday he'll met his mother
well he technically isnt lying, in heaven they will see each other
In the manga, when the messenger from the law firm brings him his weekly allowance, Kotaro gives them his "diary". This is a sheaf of exactly seven pages (one for each day of the previous week), in which he reports the significant personal events of each day. He knows the "donations" are somehow related to his mother, so he's writing these pages for her to let her know he's okay. But one week he stopped writing them, and Kobayashi asked him why he quit. His answer was that no matter how many he wrote, he "kept getting rejected" ie because his mom never responded to his missives.
Karino's decision to keep the unpleasant truth from him here has an unpleasant twist: Kotaro doesn't know that she is dead, but is convinced that she's alive and simply doesn't care for him. Hiding her death from him might become deeply upsetting, but it might also liberate him from the delusion of her returning to him. Despite what the textbooks say, grief isn't a neat five step path back to mental wellness, but a winding wilderness path of desolation littered with the occasional glimmer of false hope and revelatory disappointment, and that mourning and coping are of indefinite duration. Kotaro's biggest grief is the sense that he was abandoned by his overwhelmed parents, and then menaced by his grief-crazed father. He has no idea that his mother is gone, or that his father may be in a terminal self-destructive cycle. Right now he oscillates between stubborn hope, self condemnation and belief (rooted in denial) that this entire miserable life can be magically reversed by the return of his mother and the resulting redemption of his father. The eventual revelation will rock him, but needn't destroy him, or his relationship with Karino.
I used to think that no anime would ever top clannad. But this one smashed it with only 10 episodes. I sobbed all 10 episodes.
Dam I definitely got check this anime out
Ever saw Anohana. That topped Clannad but Clannad was all trains while Anohana was just a 2hr flight.
Then you should try angel beats, anohana, and violet evergarden those 3 anime make me cry so much
Clannad - starts slowly building the characters and theme but once it reaches a certain point, get ready to cry like a btch
Kotaro Lives Alone - each episode is wholesome but at the same time when you think about it deeply it makes you cry on the inside.
Then you should also watch Marquia: when the promised flower bloom. It's about a parenthood, similar to Kotaro Lives Alone. I cried when I watched Marquia and Kotaro Lives Alone.
0:22 The fact he can only write chinese letter of his mother's name (the level that elementary students're still learning to write their own name in chinese letter) while he only write his own name in alphabet. 😢 That really hit me hard.
Bruh it’s japanese
@@aaaaaaaaaaa7857some people wouldn't understand if l said Hiragana is which Kotaro write his family name, Katagana is which Kotaro write his own name and Kanji is which Kotaro wrote his mom's name. I don't know whether you understand those terms or not but there are people who don't know so please bear with my explaination.
Hiragana and Katagana are also called as alphabet.
@@hteteaindraykyaw996 don't say it's chinese. just say japanese.
@@aaaaaaaaaaa7857Can you please enlighten me how should call Kanji for people who don't know about Japanese language? Since English isn't my mother language.
Fact : Kanji is inherited from Chinese script. Commonly used in Japan.
@@aaaaaaaaaaa7857 bruh, they are just Chinese characters, mate. Korea and Japan uses them as Hanja and Kanji with their pronunciation.
Kotaro is in the denial phase of his grief and he hopes Karino understands that and help him to move forward when he is ready. This show is AMAZING, and touching in so many ways.
This is one of those moments we’re no matter what you do you can’t win rather you tell the truth or not.
The insurance money made it clear that Kotaro's mom is already dead but this clip still stung. Karino cares so much about Kotaro that he was willing to lie. I think Kotaro already thinks about the possibility that his mother is already gone. He just doesn't have proof of it. He got the lawyer drunk to see if she will slip up and spill the beans.
Watching this scene for the second time , I feel like Kotaro was aware of the fact they engrave names on right side which is the same with every single grave stone in Japan ( I’m Japanese ) but was too afraid to look himself so he had Karino on that side to tell him the truth. He believed karino will not lie to him… I would do the same as karino if I was him. Kotaro needs to have a hope to keep it going.
Even if that hope is fake?
@@jwx9509 in this case, I think yes. I think the truth would destroy him.
But this is only 2nd time he is visiting this place right? First time he said he came with his mother.
You might be right. He positioned himself to the left.
@@jwx9509if it keeps him around this earth, absolutely.
This scene just gets more painful as it goes on. Karino lies to Kotaro about him seeing his mother again and he knows that he will hate him once he finds out the truth. And Kotaro believes this completely because he considers Karino a true friend who would never lie to him, even if perhaps he already knows about what happened to his mother, but does not want to accept it and clings to the hope that maybe he can see her again. It’s such an incredibly heartbreaking scene.
I dont think Kotaro will hate Karino for lying to him. The bond they've made is so strong now. Look at the guy from the grouphome. He lied to Kotaro and Kotaro still chose to love him in the end. He knows Karino has his best interest always in heart.
I am not crying, I am absolutely not crying 😭
Do you think he should’ve told the truth
@@hklegomaster He MUST tell him but not in this moment
🔪 🧅
So basically for y’all confused, Kotaro thinks his mother is still alive, and hopes to meet her someday. However, the side of the Tombstone revealed Kotaro’s mothers name, it indicates that his mother had deceased. The reason why Karino didn’t move from that location, was because since Kotaro recognizes his mother’s name written, he didn’t want him to see that
Kotaro's such a therapeutic character for me. In a way I can see my child self, face-to-face, and it breaks my heart remembering but I'm also comforted. To have such nice people around you tho, if only reality's like that. He's very lucky to have Karino and others.
the sparkle in his eyes when he thought his mom walked by :( brb while i cry
His mother was a true piece of work. She treated him like shit no physically but emotionally he was treated like a curse that was placed upon her. She didn’t want to look at him, touch him, hell she clearly didn’t truly want to be around him because she left him dead in that crib and he was alone for numerous days to the point he was ringing doorbells just because he wanted some form of attention even if it was negative. She let him get wet in the rain, never played with him, he was basically living with a zombie metaphorically that is. His dad wasn’t abusive at first. The father was the good parent the light to the darkness and when the mother up and left instead of doing the emotional abuse like the mother he chose physical to the point the court system had to step in a little man even ran from a home system due to the day trying to find him. Little man has one goal and that is to get strong enough to not be weak so his dad will not hit and be the current version of himself anymore and so he can find and bring his mom home and live together with all the people he loves and holds dear. Tbh that’ll likely never happen his dad might never change and his mother yeah well she’s in the afterlife.
I won't blame her mom because she's clearly suffered Post Partum Depression after giving a birth. It could last 3 years even more.
Interesting. Thanks for the summary.
Where does it show that the father wasn’t physically abusive from the start? He abused Kotaro’s mother didn’t he? The mom had severe postpartum depression which is why she was so unfeeling towards her own child, but that is no justification for a father being emotionally or physically abusive towards his family. Even abusers have good moments - why do you think victims have such a hard time leaving? Like Kotaro, they focus on the happy memories and blame themselves. “Chose physical” like that doesn’t make sense at all…I hope you weren’t trying to make it seem like the mother was the parent responsible for everything that happened to Kotaro. They were both awful, there was no “good parent the light to the darkness.”
@@throwthepumpkin Hm I think there was a looot of projection there
There’s no proof that Kotaro’s dad wasn’t abusive from the beginning. It’s pretty rare that abusers randomly start abuse, there are other signs first usually smaller things until they build to bigger ones. I think the mom leaving could’ve definitely escalated it. I think the mom shows classic signs of post partum depression as well. I argue both of them are there to show how abuse can present differently: Kotaro’s dad is the aggressive, physical depiction and his mom is the emotionally neglectful/ not meeting their child’s needs side.
Seeing this episode made my eyes watery and it made me want to cry.
The fact that Kotaro at the end says that he trusts Karino and knows he won’t lie to him is just just heartbreaking
*Sometimes it's more noble to tell a small lie than to deliver a painful truth*
Technically he didn't lie,. They do believe in afterlife so he can see her there..
it was still a form of lying…
Camera angles are telling that Kotaro somehow knew what happened to his mother. He is quite clever at spotting things and pretending to not realize it.
Well... We all knew how strong Kotaro is. 😔😳 I wanna hug him so bad 🥺
In one scene he thanked the lawyer in his heart for protecting his heart. I think he suspected it but because no one confirmed it, he simply hopes his mother would appear one day.
I mean it seems he's been to the graves before since he mentioned when he "last visited" so he may have already seen his mothers name on the grave....
@@stevenhiggins3055 the last time he was at the grave was with his mother they allude to it in the same episode.
Kotaro needs lots of hugs, you need a hug, i need a hug, everyone needs a hug after watching this clip 😭
bless his soul 😢😢😢
I watched the whole anime once, and cried the whole time. And then immediately watched it again with my sister and cried even more. And now, once again, I am crying because this scene absolutely guts me.
I tried to not crying until this episode…😭😭😭
Was looking for a happy go lucky anime on a Friday night...
Went to bed depressed...
God this was a good anime, full of surprises, twists, wholesomeness, TLDR; an emotional rollercoaster of an anime
Same 😭😭😭 i thought it would be a happy slice of life anime huhuu
I just finished it all tonight, Im gonna be tired as hell tm but WORTH IT
@@RoseCalyx heck yeah, did the same too, stayed up til 2 or 3 that night
Damn, I didn't think I would start tearing up
Karino may have been irresponsible before meeting Kotaro, but that was only because he didn't value his life as much as he should have. He's a true man, it takes a lot of strength and power to be a father to a child you've never met.
Man this was such a sad series, totally didn't expect this.
From time to time, I remember kotaro. He was all “grown up” but from time to Eto’o could see how he’s still a child. I cried every episode and this anime is dearly one of the best I have seen. Will come back to it once I am ready.
i found this then immediately watched the entire thing. I have never seen something so cute yet so depressing (and relatable unfortunately)
Only after watching the full series, and then thinking about it, did I realize how dark and depressing it was.
Yo, who the hell is cutting tamanegi around here? Dare?!
Here 🔪 🧅
The fact that he technically doesn't lie but still takes it as a lie saying "of course"
This anime indeed could be said as one of a dark anime on 2022, cause it literally give us an insight, what a broken home is, how it affected that family, not just the parent ( not just a husband or a wife ) but the child. Kotaro here is a child who is looking bright on the outside, but have so much emotion piled up inside that if no one there to support kotaro, i'm afraid.... Though i really liked how one by one people gathered around kotaro, caring for him , etc. And indeed if some bad timing happened in the future kotaro might hate him for lying to him, but i'm sure kotaro will understand why he lied and not holding any grudge, cause you know ? IRL there is indeed some child / people that could tell someone is lying just from the way they speak, or even gestures, but not little of them choose to accept and forgive if that lies is for their own good
This anime also hits even harder if the watcher suffers from the same situation or worse. Because they would knew, I knew, that what is going to happen to him and how the worst is yet to come for him.
Due to abuse kotaro always knows when people lie. Maybe he just pretends to play along because it's difficult to accept the truth...
I hate that I've never seen this anime, yet seeing this one scene has tears in my eyes. It's too powerful.
Please watch it to help support!
こたろう(Kotaro)の口調は実は日本の昔の武士と同じで、子どもなのにそんな喋り方をしているのが可愛さを増しているのだけれど、それが英語に翻訳された時にうまく伝わっているといいなあ。
The way of Kotaro’s talking is alike a bushi that Japanese ancient soldier.
For example, both of “onushi” and “ anata “ means “ you “ , but the first one is way of ancient words. Therefore , not only his precocious knowledge but also his words select is unbalance as child , which is cute.
So when this anime translated, I want to tell the Japanese trick to English people.
That lie probably hurt the poor guy more than anything, especially hearing how completely Kotarou believes in him.
I think he already know, before this scene happen, he always pray to cemetery alone before meet karino, so i think he already know the cruel reality.
Still with a kid in that age, mostly they deny and still hope that someday her mother will return to her
I was cried for the whole minutes of this show...
I love this anime. It conveys so much depth and tenderness and heartbreaks, yet it still maintains it's lighthearted humor. But once you stop and consider, then you realized the gravity of the situation. The ideas and feelings it want to express was so well thought-out and communicated to the audience. It shows the audience enough to allow the the audience to realized and feel why and what was happening. The subject of tissue was one of the OMG moment that I will not forget.
The gloves scene gosh
I'm not crying. You crying!!! 😭😭😭😭
I think this for me was the most heart breaking scene the fact that karino was just talking about how he would never lie to kotaro but he knows this will break him if he realises it and Karino keeping that hope that kotaro will meet his mother again. I feel this is a special anime just because how much it goes into real world problems and morals of people yet it keeps that wholesome and comedic moments too.
Scene still brings tear to my eyes. It's both Karino's strongest and arguably most cowardly scene.
This scene is one of hardest hitting. Always a good one to come back to if I need a cry
this part is so saddening. we all know how smart kotaro is. he might hate him for real if he knew he's lying.
I cried so hard at this part when you catch a glimpse and after kotaro asked something my chest just hurt this anime is brillant but so dark
He needs to know. They have to tell him eventually
Man watching this anime is like watching a childhood memory.
He just wanted to protect Kotaro... 😢🤧😫
the tears i shed in this episode 🌊🌊🌊
When Kotaro got happy to keep on never giving up about looking for his mom, deep inside I knew he knew the truth, I mean all those episodes he was 10 steps ahead of everyone in mind and thinking. My heart goes out for him. God this anime broke me since 1st episode-
Smile genuinely bright sweet sun~
I have never cried in my entire life while watching any movie or series.
But this anime. This particular anime made me cry in almost every episode.
This anime broke my heart. I don't think there is an episode I didn't cry.
You know, I've been trying to forget this anime 😭😭😭😭😭😭
2:49 Pain, pure and raw. Accompanied by that thousand yard stare.
This scene literally makes me want to keep kotaro and hug him😭😭
Now I am usually pretty good at holding in my tears with no ill effect,but this scene trying to hold in my tears made my throat feel like it was being torn apart from the inside
This scene make me cry everytime !
I was expecting this to be a funny anime but instead it just made me cry
This animation srsly got me sobbing tons involving sensitive topics, I absolutely adore it
Your anime gives me a scent of strangers adoring you🙂
the author of this anime/manga must be very proud of herself ♥️
When I watch this anime. Every single episode make me crying.
I was pretty sure that was the case but still, seeing it confirmed made me cry like a baby lol. I had no idea the story would this sad, I hope it ends up being scanlated because I don't want to wait so long for season 2
im crying so hard rn, my heart breaks for this kid.
Kotaro will grow up to be a fine gentleman with a genteman also guiding him.
I've been anticipating this show so when it came out finally I washed it immediately and loved it I really hope they get a season two
This is like the first time I’ve seen this anime, and I’ve gotta say this kid reminds me of how I was when I was a kid. Idk if that’s a good thing, but it’s kinda nostalgic in a way lol
This broke me 💔
So sad, Kotaro. 🥺
Wow a relax wholesome anime about a 4-year-old living alone, surely It'd cure my depression.
The actual anime:
It adds more.
MOOD
Good God...this scene hits you like a anvil...😢😢😢
I really want to hug both Kotaro and Bojji. T____T
Lying is never an option, or at least never a good one but we can see how much Karino cares about Kotaro and how much he wants to protect him. Many of Kotaro scenes have broken me but this one always takes the trophy. Brb crying again.
This is one of the best Animes I ever watched.
I started watching this series after I saw this video. But damn, I never thought it was more than that 😭
This episode made me tear up a little I’m gonna miss Kotaro
Kotaro is truly what karino needed in his life.
this scene made me sob uncontrollably at 3am. Karino and Kotaro saved each other in their own way.
What makes this sadder is considering just how bad Kotaro's Mom's depression was, the cause of death was probably suicide 😔
kotaro ❤️ karino.. kotaro is what karino needed, and a friend like karino is what kotaro needed... wish we had gotten to see more of them together.. in the end, when karino laughed, it made me tear up 😭❤️this series is so wholesome..
It is such a nightmare seeing a kid live alone with his mother's insurance money. I cant imagine the nightmare that haunt kotaro every night about his future.
show always makes me tear up man
I cried at this scene so much 😭😭😭
This whole show was one heartbreak after the other, like why would they do this to us
Kotaro parents really are ninjas, can't hold my tears due to those damn Onions they cutting while hiding 😭😭
It makes me realise that
The value of parents
Without them you're alone no one can take care of you like them
A monster fan. I salute u.
He lied... Dang heavy stuff~ but I guess that's the hope that keeps him going for now...~
I remember the line from some game "I am not fond of lies but if it's to save someone I will gladly do it"... Or something along those lines~
I kinda feel sorry for his mom... she couldn't physically touch him, yet despite that, she worked hard and did everything she could to make sure he could survive in the world.... but many of her acts were viewed as not caring about him... even if that wasn't the intention...
Because she worked to hard, he felt neglected. Because she couldn't physically touch him, he felt unloved...
how did she do that? didnt she abandon him?
BUT IT SEEMS SHE DIDN’t WANT TO TOUCH HIM, NO “she couldn’t”
u made me cry again aaaaccckkk
God this story is so beautiful yet so painful.
Agreed. Imagine his pain when he finds... 🙊
Him thinking his father didn't love him because he was weak and his journey to become stronger so that his father would love him- makes me cry 😭
the tears i cried for this show today could be used to cook meals for a 4 member family for one week
