Usagi Drop


This is one of the mangas I've read this week to unwind. I've been eyeing on it since earlier this year. For a Josei manga, it's quite light-hearted. The manga is writen by Unita Yumi and quite popular with plot twists. It's quite popular in Japan and just this year it has released an anime and a live action movie starring Matsuyama Kenichi and Karina's part of the cast (WAH how cool is that, no?).

The summary goes:
Going home for his grandfather’s funeral, thirty-year-old bachelor Daikichi is floored to discover that the old man had an illegitimate child with a younger lover! The rest of his family is equally shocked and embarrassed by this surprise development, and not one of them wants anything to do with the silent little girl, Rin. In a fit of angry spontaneity, Daikichi decides to take her in himself! But will living with this overgrown teenager of man help Rin come out of her shell? And hang on, won’t this turn of events spell doom for Daikichi’s love life?

The Anime Trailer (with English Subtitles):

The live-action movie trailer (no subs yet):
I'm actually looking forward to watch the movie. I want to see how they will portray the story with the amazing cast they have.
