Anime Review - The Way of the Househusband
6A brief review for the anime "The Way of the Househusband." It's short because it's a slice of life anime, which means that there's not much of a plot to cover, and also because it's only 10 episodes long (~135 minutes.) I also briefly mentioned some other material that's based on the manga—in case anyone likes the concept and wants more.
Also, at 17 seconds in I said "prejudice and preconceptions" against yakuza but, to be clear, I meant stuff like thinking that they always cut off fingers, and how *former* members get judged similarly. I know that they're a gang, gangs are violent, and people have valid reasons to be nervous if they think that they're around violent gang members/that's not prejudice. I think my meaning's still clear, but since this the internet—where meanings go to get lost, regularly—I'mma put a note.
