I think it could be possible for the work times to be bad enough for him to rarely see her while she's there. But he'd have to actually be pretty douchebaggy to be that insensitive to her tho. Or just hella dumb, thinking that it would be better for her.

I haven't seen it for awhile so I could be forgetting things

The guy pays for everything Taiga does, and for her large apartment so I do not think her dad is that bad at all. Some jobs you have no choice but to have work grind. I think Taiga`s dad was mostly used as a excuse to dump some backstory on Taiga, and an excuse for Ryuji to get closer to her.

You ever start going to the gym and then stop after a month? I guess it is something like that.

Not that there's anything wrong with it, but I'm gonna assume none of you have had the dead beat dad figure. I didn't either, but my father did. How this show captured that in a wealthy environment was actually pretty accurate. Basically the dude isn't mature enough to be there for his daughter, so he sends her money, thinking that makes up for his absence. He realizes over time that he's not there like he should be for her. So out of shame, he comes back around spends some time, plays the "father" part, makes himself feel all good, then once he feels good enough, he disappears again, thinking he did enough of the "father" thing to make up for lost time. Basically he came back around to make himself feel good about himself. Hope this helps!!

No problem bro! It was definitely kind of low key and not something everyone was gonna get. Anyone who did probably got more angry at Taiga's dad than the rest did. I remember fantasizing about knocking the bastard out when he decided to disappear without a word again. I don't know if you ever watched Fresh Prince of Bel Air, but it was just like that episode with his dad coming back around.

Tiaga and her step-mother didn't get along, which is why Tiaga moved out. When Tiaga's Father had a falling out with her step-mother/his wife that's when he decided he had time for his daughter after all, as soon as he made up with his wife he went back to her leaving Tiaga alone.
