I understand how one could interpret the title of this series, but everything I looked up about it indicates that this series is actually a serious story about processing grief of a loved one that passed, and the trials that the MC faces as a suddenly-single father. I haven't read the series though, so if others that are familiar with the source want to back me up, then I would love to hear your take.

So glad you posted this because I was thinking "wew they'll do anything to try and make pedophilia acceptable"

Yeah, the title is super suspicious. I definitely glanced at this one askance for a while until I had done enough searching to make sure that it isn't what it sounds like. Feel like they could have come up with a better title in English than this.

I mean.. They also could have skipped the reincarnated as a child part too..

[-] Sarmyth@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That is the natural path of reincarnation, isn't it? LOL

[-] SatouKazuma@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

I've read a bit of the source material. Yeah, you mostly nailed it, save the tidbit omitted here where the widower ends up meeting a reincarnated version of his ex.

Ah, that doesn't sound so bad.

Hopefully it doesn't turn into an Usagi Drop type situation...

What an absolutely unfortunate name for an Anime...

[-] wjs018@ani.social 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah, feel like the English title could have been chosen better. Maybe I should have just posted the romaji instead, but I try to stick to the English titles in the post titles when series have them.
