A shoutout to anyone who remembers Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg and Ted Danson in the move Three Men and a Baby. I remember the top line, laughing and that there was an urban myth about a ghost appearing in it. I also suspect it’ll be gender-role cringe by today’s standards.
Nevertheless, it’s that 1980s comedy which comes to mind when watching the latest trailer for Vio Shimokura’s Buddy Daddies. The anime is airing in Japan now, and Crunchyroll has picked it up.
It’s P.A. Works making the series with Yoshiyuki Asai directing. Crunchyroll describe the baby sitting by assassins as;
A parenting diary of assassin buddies?!
Two assassin partners who never let their target get away somehow end up taking in a four-year-old girl. The hot and cool buddies start a family life with this cute, innocent girl.
These assassins can handle any job with no problem, and yet, they find themselves struggling with this little girl. From feeding her to playing with her to taking her to and from nursery school, they’re always rushing around. But no matter how crazy their life is, when they have a job, they can’t turn it down. To further complicate things, the girl happens to be the secret love child of a heinous mafioso that they killed!
Is it really possible to live as assassins and parents at the same time? Can this temporary family find happiness?
