but then the way Gataro reacts to things isn't like your typical overprotective parent, so they got their own unique niche there too.
Plus, Aragaki Yui cameos -- with a very surprising reference at the end!
If you're into cute dramas and have 7 episodes' time to spare, I strongly recommend this one! It was a fun light-hearted watch!

Doting Parent? Entirely, more of Genuine Loving Parents~! <3
Let me be one of the boldest by giving it a PERFECT 10!xx WATCH THIS DRAMA ×× PERIOD!
Honestly, I wasn't that fond and slightly worried when I first started this drama cause c'mon this type of story plot are always irrirating but Thank God! I unconditionally trust Japanese Production as a whole and they proved me right!
Japanese dramas tends to tackle and show the weirdest side of a story no one will ever imagine to see. They always brought those stories up and magically makes it unique and interesting. The greatest game changer of the overall drama scene. They may not be the best but they always does things magnificently without restraints. This may be a natural drama flow in Japan in General but their industry was such a big shock to me when I first fully dive into it. But as you may notice it gradually grew into me and was able to reach this point where I can just trust and watch.
Going back to the story... I must say that it is a 360° turn of the norms; this drama is more of a Father showing his love to his beloved daughter while making everyone around them learn and discover LIFE as a whole. He utmost guided and lead them by being an inspiration and a figure that's most of the times leading in a dorky way but also has his mature and well-experienced side.
Story - 10, It is a warm, interesting and humorous type of drama that is best fit for growing young adults. It presents different situations and scenarios dealt by a group of college students who're experiencing their FIRST TIMES after entering college/adulthood.
Acting/Cast - 10, High Praises! Japanese actors/actresses always had this unique way of doing acting and presenting them to viewers and they splendidly showed it in this drama. Cast is Perfect! I had so much fun watching them OMG! How i wish to have more scenes with Aragaki Yui; Nonetheless she still played such a vital role in this drama and everything felt just right and nice.
Music - 10, The Ennding Music is very idolish which I'm very familiar too so I enjoyed listening to it. It's sounds fun and very fitting to the theme of this drama. The other BGM inserts were also great. Nice editing!
Rewatch Value - 10, No one can argue about this! Just give me a sequel for their 3rd & 4th year im College and I'll be really grateful.
Overall - 10, No words needed!! I mean, when can you watch a drama that's completely different from the usual trend in the worlds drama scene? Drama industry as a whole is oversaturated with recycled plot twist that they got me exasperated often times. Again! WATCH THIS DRAMA!!

Quirky drama about overprotective dad
I noticed this series as I perused Netflix catalogue for shows leaving soon. The synopsis was intriguing so I binged this series in 2 days to meet Netflix deadline.What I liked:
1) Friendship - I like watching the dynamics between 6 core individuals. Gataro Obika was a controlling father to Sakura but a great friend to the other 5 university students that he and Sakura befriended.
2) Father-daugher dynamic - It's great to see healthy interactions between a father and a daughter.
3) Comedy - There are many comedy scenes in this series, mostly provided by Taro and Negoro.
4) Plot - I like how the story progresses from one episode to the next. I was never bored.
What I disliked:
1) Parenting style - I find Taro meddled too much into Sakura's life. It's weird to enrol in the same university course as your daughter. It's even weirder to be too involved in Sakura's social life. She could not even go on a date without Taro's presence, it's stiffling.
2) Ending - I like where the series was headed in the penultimate episode but I find ultimate episode less satisfying. I'd love to see Taro publishing new novel and letting go of his control of Sakura as well as more developed arcs for Hiroko, Misaki Eto.
Favourite scene
When Taro and Hatakeyama Masaharu saved Sakura & Hiroko from bad guys.

Unik
Drama yang sangat menarik, mulai dari tema, alur sampai ke para karakternya. Setiap episodenya selalu penuh kejutan, semua karakter benar-benar hidup dan saling melengkapi, kebanyakan drama akan terasa membosankan karena tokoh pembantu mendapatkan bagian yang terlalu banyak seolah berdiri sendiri (tidak ada kaitannya dengan cerita utama), tetapi porsi tokoh pembantu sangat pas pada drama ini, seolah tanpa bagian mereka drama ini tidak akan lengkap tetapi keberadaan mereka tidak lebih dominan daripada tokoh utama. Sangat bagus!Was this review helpful to you?
La juventud del papa sobreprotector
La serie tiene una historia muy original sobre un papa viudo que decide inscribirse en la universidad junto a su hija. Es una comedia principalmente, tuvo chistes buenísimos con muchas referencias a otros doramas, es muy fácil de ver y muy divertida con algunas buenas lecciones que quedan en la mente. Me hubiera gustado que expandieran un poco más el final, pero para el objetivo de la serie, entiendo que no había más nada que transmitir.Los personajes muy agradables cada uno con su desarrollo y crecimiento, excelentes actuaciones y muchos cameos de actores que han trabajado antes con el director, la presencia de Gakki se hace notar muchísimo a pesar de ser secundaria, ella siempre brilla cada que sale y Muro Tsuyoshi hizo excelente papel como papa eccentrico sobreprotector.
La música es muy buena, me encantó el tema de Yuzu que estaba en el ending.

Dur d'être père !
Oyabaka seishunn hakusho que je me permettrai de traduire par "le guide des parents stupides" est La comédie rafraichissante de cette rentrée 2020, et dieux sait qu'on en avait besoin. Nagano Mei (3 Nen A Gumi, Hanbun, Aoi) est à nouveau formidable dans son rôle d'étudiante un peu nunuche, mais tellement attachante. Ses mimiques collent comme à chaque fois à ses personnages, épaulée par ses deux amis à la forte personnalité, le trio est parfait. Les persos masculins sont, certes, caricaturaux comme celui de Nakagawa Taishi (Natsuzora, ...) complètement à l'ouest dans son rôle d'amoureux transi, mais qui s'ignore ou Tozuka Junki qui joue un Youtubeur obsédé par la vidéo viral qui fera de lui un millionnaire. C'est là une des forces de ce drama, encré dans la réalité des étudiants (japonais ou autres) d'aujourd'hui. Entre baito et rêve de devenir humoriste, artiste ou auteur, loin du chemin tout tracé "Université -> grande entreprise". Mais la grande force (humoristique) de ce drama c'est bien sûr Muro Tsuyoshi, le père de Mei qui crève l'écran, en nous faisant crever de rire. Tics oraux et gestuels du corps sont parfaitement maîtrisés pour notre plus grand bonheur. Tel un conteur de rakugo, thème d'un épisode d'ailleurs (hasard ou pas) il nous enchante par ce personnage de père surprotecteur, mais tellement attachant. Mention spéciale pour l'épisode sur les miss qui ravira les fans de Cosplay.Was this review helpful to you?
