Anime Review: Kumichou Musume to Sewagakari, The Unique Story of a Yakuza Member Who Becomes a Babysitter

One of the Best Slice of Life Anime Summer 2022

Konnichiwa mina-san!

Ok this time I will discuss the anime that is currently airing this season, as one of the slice of life anime that airs this season, of course this anime does not escape my supervision.

The anime is Kumichou Musume to Sewagakari, with a unique concept this slice of life anime is guaranteed to entertain you.

The concept of yakuza in anime has indeed been very often raised, the hard life of the yakuza which is synonymous with violence is often the main attraction in an anime.

But lately the concept has been twisted a bit, giving rise to an interesting new sensation, for example you must have seen Backstreet Girl: Gokudolls where yakuza members are forced to become an idol group.

The anime successfully attracted the attention of many anime fans because in the anime, a terrible yakuza member turned into a beautiful girl in an idol group.

By combining several aspects that are opposite to the yakuza, a lot of interesting stories can finally be born, as well as this anime. Curious what this anime is like? let's discuss together..

Synopsis of Kumichou Musume to Sewagakari

Sakuragi, one of the most respected yakuza groups, in the group there is one member who is greatly feared by many people because of his very brutal nature, that member is Kirishima Tooru.

Every time he deals with people outside the group, he always makes these people battered and not infrequently the people he deals with are admitted to the hospital.

His nature which always prioritizes fighting certainly causes a lot of problems in the Sakuragi group, seeing that the chairman, Sakuragi Kazuhiko gives him an assignment.

The task must not fail, and if it fails then Kirishima's life is at stake, the task is to take care of his daughter, Sakuragi Yaeka.

From here the story between a brutal yakuza member and the daughter of the leader begins.

Review Kumicho Musume to Sewagakari

A yakuza becomes a babysitter, at first glance the concept sounds convincing, and it's true that in this anime the concept is implemented well.

It's been 3 episodes and I'm still enjoying this anime, so far there's nothing that makes me reluctant to watch it.

Just like other slice of life anime where the storyline will focus on the lives of the main characters, namely Yaeka and Kirishima.

Actually there is one thing that bothers me when I see Kirishima, in the first episode he looks very brutal and can beat anyone, but since he was given the task of guarding Yaeka it has become invisible again.

I don't know if he's afraid or that's his true nature, but what's clear is that when he's with Yaeka, Kirishima becomes very kind and his brutal nature becomes very gentle.

From here I thought of something, where did this gentle nature come from? could it arise because of Kirishima's past?

Yes, until the 3rd episode we still haven't been told about Kirishima's past, so far only the Yaeka family's past has been told.

The past of the Yaeka family is very touching, it is carried out well and slowly so the audience of this anime can understand it carefully.

It is said that Yaeka's mother fell into a coma due to an accident, and since then Yaeka has been lacking the love of a mother, her father who is the head of the Yakuza group is also unable to take care of her child properly.

In the midst of the conflict, Kirishima finally stepped in and became the mediator, with his gentle nature he managed to convince Yaeka that his mother loved him very much, as well as his father.

As I said earlier, after realizing Kirishima's gentle nature I was both surprised and curious, how could he have such a gentle nature.

For graphics, nothing special, just normal in my opinion. For the size of an anime in 2022, the graphics of this anime are not bad.

Overall, I highly recommend this anime for those of you who are looking for a relaxing and entertaining spectacle.

Don't worry, this anime is legally available on bstation, you can watch it for free and legally there.
