Doesn't deseve harsh critism

It start great but after time skip it kinda fall through it is not as bad as other said though, the author do tried their best to fix it but the stupid time skip make it hard to fix.

Also there's a problem with Kouki mon rejecting Daikichi because she think she is old women which is weird since both of them are at same age, and then later throw many other strange reason just so Kouki Mom and Daikichi wont get together this make thing even worse the natural manga feel not so natural anymore

The ending is mixed feeling it is not as bad as other said, I still think that this manga have the feeling of the innocence and laid back. It may different from some other people, well mostly to people who can get offended to fantasy story, makes me wonder why they read in the 1st place anyway.

Usagi Drop is great manga, if you began to dislike it you can't always just Drop it 🙂 , but for me I like it from the beginning till the end, despite the bad transition between child to teen, and the unconventional ending.

It's actually a good one, but if you stopped reading it at ch. 24

It's actually a good one, but if you stopped reading it at ch. 24. I couldn't help, but cracked a smile in each chapter.
But, things turned into the worst at ch. 25. Putting aside that my Rin is "ruined", they turned it into really different genre, rushed the story too much, and in the end I just felt like "Huh? Just like that? ".

1. The nonsense relationship between Daikichi and Kouki's mom. They both loved each other, and they both knew it. If Daikichi never tried to ask her out, then it's understandable, but Daikichi did ask her out, though he's rejected with "I'm too old" as an excuse. And yet, later she remarried with an old man that apparently asked her out several times. Though, till the end she still loved that Daikichi, even though she had married another man. I can't get impression of her as such a good person, and felt that she's just like a b*tch in ntr-Hitozuma eroge. Sorry.

Rin's and Kouki's relationship. You're suddenly brought into the scene when Kouki embraced Rin at ch. 25. Suddenly turning from a heartwarming series into some romantic one, isn't a good thing to do. It ruins your image of the manga, and just make you think, "ah, I know it, it must be another manga with the same setting". And yeah, they kinda rushed everything, that after the incident with Akira, Rin stopped loving him at all, after she gave Kouki a kiss with saying "that's for Kouki that I used to like". (C'mon, don't ruin the image of Rin into a btch, please. ) Not so long after that, she just moved into Daikichi. Yeah, and in another "suddenly" way. And, till the end there's not even a scene that shows they're kissing. So we don't know, do they even ever have a kiss? Could it she just ever did it with Kouki?. (Oh man, for the sake of justice, they should've drawn that. It's kinda unfair, and just let me think that Rin is already ruined and turned into a btch that suited as ntr eroge main heroine in 10 years)

Things might be pretty different if they didn't rush it...

Utterly disgusted

I agree entirely with debsquared, I wish I could use bleach on my mind to erase everything after ch.24. Everything up till that point I loved and would rate it 8/10, after which it changed into a 7/10, but the ending is just too disgusting to recommend the entire thing. I can't believe some people accept this kind of thing.

He is her father! They might not be related, but he is, psychologically. When she says she wants to have a child by him, I just threw up.

2/10

a cute story about a cute nuclear family. i rather at the end it goes all the way than chicken out like that, but i guess the squick factor is too much. i dont know why people are so worked up, this manga has a peaceful quality in it. probably the understated art.

Two Halves, Two Faces

by darkanimelight

Rating: N/A

I'm sure I'll simply be restating what many others have said, but I still want to share my piece. I really liked Usagi Drop, from start to finish - that is, I like it when I put on my splitting goggles and tell myself that it was two totally separate stories/series.

The topic, character development, story line, dang - even the writing style - was completely different between the first half and the second half. I love both stories, they each have their charm. But they should not have been in the same series. They were just two different - the shift in story type from the first half to the second was just too jarring, leaving the reader feeling disjointed and uncomfortable. I absolutely ADORED the first half - I felt it was very unique, enchanting and heart warming, and I feel I would have loved it even more if it had ended in the first half where it was - it would have made it more captivating, allowing the reader to fill in the future however they liked. The second half, well... I agree with the others; it was inferior quality and at the end of the day, not a memorable piece. But, nonetheless I enjoyed it as a time-passer.

Sigh I will definitely suggest this manga to others in the future, but I will urge them to read each half at least a few months apart, so that they are their own separate (and beautiful) soloists rather than attempting to dance together with two left feet each and no rhythm.

I give the first half a 9/10 and the second half a 5/10

I think it's nice for a fiction.

Ok, it's a fiction, so I don't fuss over the romance in the ending.

Most of the manga that please readers have the main characters end up together anyway.

And the story makes me remember "Aishiteruze Baby", just different ending.

Well the story ends how I want and how I knew. The story is really good and no hard feelings on it, unless you are a prejudged person. Still its true some pairing was more aceptable than the ones in the end for example even I dont like Kouki with Rin I like he with another girl that didnt happend. The history is better if you read it only to pass the time. And let it like its a fictional. Even still I had seem this in real life happening more than you can imagine. I dont support persons raising kids being single unless is a special situation like this, and for avoid problems that is why exist orphanages.

Rating: 7.0 / 10.0

I loooved this series. It has drama, humor and plenty of character growth.
For me, the only problem is the end. If you have read it you know what I mean... I HATED THE AUTHOR WHEN I GOT TO THE ENDING.

All in all, I recommend it. I enjoyed it a lot and eventually I will re-read it and enjoy it all over again. But if the ending had been different it would have been a 10. Seriously, wth?!

P.D: keep reading comments! Everyone is so horrified LOL
