Summary:
Once upon a time, a man named Tatsu was a fierce member of the Yakuza. He was known as the Immortal Dragon and infamous for everything he did – and survived. But that was years ago. Now he’s a househusband and quite dedicated to the job.
Enter the househusband! He walked away from a life of danger and violence. Now, he fights a new type of battle against dust and messes. All while mastering the art of cooking and shopping.
Review:
I don’t know how long a series like The Way of the Househusband can continue, but I can tell you that I will gleefully read every volume handed to me. The Way of the Househusband Vol. 9 continues in the same vein as the rest of the series, with Tatsu getting pulled into lots of quick stories and events.
As always, there’s a little bit of something for everyone, thanks to the quick and varied nature of the stories. We have a picky eater, a beetle battle (you read that right), and even a horror story! (Well, sort of, you’ll see!). It makes for a lot of fun and silliness.
The more I see some of the secondary characters, the more I love them. Will we ever get a spin-off series about Hibari Torii? That’d be pretty amazing (I swear I’m not just saying that because of her love of cats…).
Highlights:
- Ex-Yakuza turned Househusband
- Comical
- Slice-of-life
- Adorable Cat side stories
