The Way of the Househusband

 A Netflix original, this anime was highly awaited when announced by the streaming service.

So recently, me and Noshi tackled the first season, counting 5 episodes, of the series.

Now, a word of warning first, the animation style.  It holds somewhere between a picture drama and an anime, with not all of the frames being animated.  It wasn`t as distracting or bad as some reviews stated, but it does take a bit of getting used to.

But the story is great fun!  The story goes about the greatest gangster of the Yakuza, Tatsu, nicknamed the Immortal Dragon, has turned househusband.  But this makes his life more eccentric as well, as he uses the skills from his former life for example to do DIY chores, use them to bargain prices on fleamarket's, or when he goes grocery shopping.

Yet his past follows him, as the police try to catch him doing something wrong, while young thugs are unknowing of his reputation as they bully the neighbourhood... albeit shortly if they run into him.

A short but awefully fun series, as well as the intermezzo's of the household cat and the neighbourhood dog, and surely worth a watch.  Just try to get past the weird form of animating, and you will certainly have a good laugh!
