Review of The Yakuza's Guide to Babysitting
Really nice wholesome story about growth as an person and also a very bad yakuza story. The relationship between the main cast is well fleshed out and so wholesome i felt i got diabetes. It was too much actually. They forced the wholesome in your face with many close shots of cute smiles who drag on for ten seconds etc... It's a little over the top but still enjoyable and totally deserving a 7 or 8. The problem comes form the yakuza part. It's very generic and seems badly written. The main villain is always in the background but pretty much do nothing. His motivation is really dumb, hisdesign generic and his tone annoying.
Worse, he's the only foil of this story as far we know. There's other bad guys but they are one-dimensional, get beaten easily and pretty fast and generally are only there to move the plot along.
This story would have been better written by replacing the yakuza part by a "rich guy, his daughter and their servants" part...or by going full yakuza with murders and stuff. Here's it's edgy at best.
Oh and make the gay friend not unnecessary grabby. It's seriously annoying to see this prejudice still be a thing in this day and age.
tldr: wholesome but not well written
