| Mangaka Ichi Ichikawa's series is like if you take Gakuen Babysitters (thanks to character designer Mina Oosawa, who also did said show) and combine it with the likeness of Sasaki and Miyano (since this is Studio Deen back at yet another BL series), you'll get this show, which topics like these are even rarer in the BL space. I was not expecting MADKID for the OP, it feels so out-of-place, yet so good. Takayoshi Tanimoto's ED is just fine. The story of an Alpha and Omega relationship a.k.a the Omegaverse (where anyone can be pregnant), the latter is Masaki Fujiyoshi, a stay-at-home spouse and parent taking care of his son Hikari, with the former being his husband of Hiromu. Both guys taking care of their one and only son, it's hard work with Masaki being played as the female archetype, while Hiromu is the clear male husband to the relationship. Omegas are always the one affected in the rather precarious relationship, and this applies pretty much to Masaki, which Hiromu actually appreciates both him and Hikari. Despite a marriage between both guys, it's still pretty much a family at heart between the trio. Celebrating Christmas is always a treat for the children, and this is no different to Hikari, which is the blessing of both guys. But when he wants to retrieve the Christmas star, he juggled it, causing it to fall and chip off, only to cry like a child. Masaki having to pamper him, and Hiromu getting another star for that, his smile relieves them both. But their neighbours, especially one of them, will have to get used to it... Despite the theme of married gays taking care of a child (which its subject theme can be rather niche in its topic research), I assure you that this is not as bad as you assume. In fact, this is a rather uncomfortable show that's made wholesome if you keep your thought process straight that THIS IS fiction. |

| Mangaka Ichi Ichikawa's manga about two loving husbands, with some stuff about omegas thrown in, finally getting an anime adaptation after so long. MADKID is going for that KPOP-esque opening, and as a certified MADKID fan, this song bangs. Takayoshi Tanimoto's ending theme is fine, nothing special Masaki Fujiyoshi is a stay-at-home spouse and parent, struggling with feelings of being a burden to his loving husband, Hiromu, because of his omega status. They've fought hard to achieve domestic happiness, especially after their son Hikari was born, prompting a move to a more family-friendly area. However, their past isn't entirely behind them. As people from their previous life start reappearing, Masaki and Hiromu question their intentions and whether they'll disrupt their newfound happiness. In the omegaverse stories I've read, it's rare for society to be against Alphas and Omegas being together. Usually, prejudice is directed towards Omegas. This feels strange to me, as it's my first encounter with this idea. I was expecting a BL couple with a child, but this is different from what I expected. All that talk about the omegaverse in this anime... If you want to be scarred for life, go ahead and look up what it means. But besides that omega thing, solid premiere. |

| Never heard of omegaverse until today, still super confused about it. I'm going into this anime completely blind. So far it's OK. Not bad, really found their little family incredibly wholesome though :) |
 |
| Getting some Gakuen Babysitters vibes( thought it was from Deen too, but it was Brain's Base) Mostly from Hikari who is as cute Kotaru. So yeah, the cuteness mixed with some slight melchancholy is quite nice. And I guess it's interesting to see an omegaverse anime. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Wait, there's mpreg in that world? And a caste system? What a weird premise for a show... Will try the 3 episode rule, so far I think it's pretty mid |
 |
| I honestly wasn't expecting this anime to be this good, I watched the trailer and it seemed way to cringe for me, but it's actually quite wholesome and funny? what? Also the animation it's pretty good and the art looks pretty nice. Again, I'm surprised a BL anime got this much of a budget and an omega anime!? Truly 2024 is the year of surprises on the anime world. I don't know if I'll continue watching it since I dislike kids so much that even animated ones annoy me and Hi-kun cried too much on this episode, but man I'm so jealous of his parents, it's such a perfect family! |
 |
| omg it is sooooo cute I can't T.T like Masaki and Hiromu are so lovey dovey and tHE BABYYY IT'S SO CUTE IM GONNA CRY 😭😭 this is going to give me diabetes because it's so sweet, I'm loving it <3 |
| NGL. Omegaverse isn't usually my bag, but I liked the PV and I'm curious how long I'll last. |
| Tried. Tedious and stupid. If it's not scratching your perverted fetish then it has nothing to offer. |
| Wow, an Omegaverse in mainstream tv. This one is so wholesome; hopefully it does well. The manga is good, so I’m happy to see an anime of it. |
| not a bad first ep. and OMG, it's an omegaverse anime too, now i'm doubly excited! i'm intrigued to find out about their neighbour's son and why he acts so indifferent... |
       |
| Yep. That's wholesome and adorable as fuck. Still though, the whole omegaverse thing makes me feel like on-screen mpreg is gonna be shown, which is gonna be kinda weird for me (I'll allow myself to stay in the dark, though, and let the anime fill me in wherever needed). I assume the "O" thing on blonde's neck is just how they'll firmly establish who the omega is, but so far keeping a sharp eye out for it, the same thing hasn't yet showed up on the back of anyone else's neck. Anyway, chill BL childcare anime with a pre-established relationship, and since the only other childcare anime I liked was Aishite Naito, I'm basically having this as my first modern childcare anime. Let's see if it can keep up the cute, because right now it's at 8.25/10 on the cuteness scale (It's so cute I'm actually crying), and a solid 0/10 on the "creepy" scale (Zero spider-like yaoi hands and zero non-conny shit). If this is the thin edge of the wedge for the omegaverse, then this has to be on the micrometer scale for thinness with how thin this wedge is right now. |

Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| Hikari is so effing cuteeeee |
| This is ....I don't even know what to think about this. I've definitely entered some fandom thing I was not familiar with like I entered a different world seeing these replies now and reading the omegaverse wiki page lol Daviljoe193 said: I assume the "O" thing on blonde's neck is just how they'll firmly establish who the omega is, but so far keeping a sharp eye out for it, the same thing hasn't yet showed up on the back of anyone else's neck. I kind of get the impression it looks like a bite mark too. |

| @traed Ah well, if it stays as cute as it was this episode, then I'm still happy. It's just an "extra feature" for all I care, in what is already proving to be a BL anime with a good chance to out-cute Sasaki to Miyano. |

| Omg omg omg, i just love this so much ㅜㅜ |
| This episode ooze with too much cuteness, I cannot! 😭 Just really fcking happy to have an omegaverse based BL anime so thank you so much dear yaoi Gods!!!! ❤️️❤️️❤️️ |
| Not into the whole omegaverse thing but this episode was 10000000/10 too pure and good for this world. So wholesome. |
| I am not familiar with the source material, but it seems that this is a lot deeper than "just another BL anime". I am curious what's up with the alpha/omega stuff and how he was pregnant, I guess this is some sort of alternate universe |
| Anime with cute babies and adorable little kids has always been my weakness.... I read the manga a few months ago but only got to the first volume because omegaverse isn't something I'm usually into, but the adaptation was really good and I really liked the seiyuu. How they sound and speak is just how I imagined them. Hikari is too cute omg my expression kept going "😖💘" for 23 minutes!!! |

| Never been a big fan of established relationships in romances, it makes me unable to care about lovey dovey moments. I don't even know the characters yet so it just feels cringe to me. And the fun part about romance is seeing them get together, in my opinion. I remember reading the manga a while ago but I dropped it since I found it boring? And this episode kinda reminded me of that haha. |

| Oh my God this is so cute~ |
