<br> Last night, I binge-watched this animated series on Netflix which is entitled, "Kotaro Lives Alone". I had no idea what the anime or the story was about, but I watched it anyway. I simply just got curious with the title and the thumbnail because the Kotaro mentioned in the title is a 4-year old boy. <br> <center>  [IMAGE SOURCE](https://occ-0-3955-300.1.nflxso.net/dnm/api/v6/evlCitJPPCVCry0BZlEFb5-QjKc/AAAABZWDsfNwIg0UDSayWDsUymmZvKjnZ42D-EsuGSstpgCLvKBuIFbWNZ8fEm-pBxuUVsEQAUkqcXhee3HexJsjFkchTcV3k-PIcU8DthiakLQjrWP67nP9M1S5hHVSLQ.jpg)</center> <br> The character you see above is Satou Kotaro and he is only 4 years old. In the anime, he just transferred to an apartment beside a struggling manga artist named Shin Karino. This 4-year old boy lives alone and is trying to live his life the "bushido" way. "Bushido" is the samurai way of life, meaning, it gives importance on honor, self-discipline, bravery and simple living. <br> I suppose he was kind of influenced by his favorite anime called Tonosaman who is a samurai and is living in the same way. He also speaks similarly to that era in Japan like using the title "dono" instead of "san" which is common nowadays. <br> Basically, the anime shows how this little boy try to live his day-to-day life. Allow me to share the trailer below... <br> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLzmLUtVkxA [VIDEO SOURCE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLzmLUtVkxA) <br> As you can see in the trailer, even though he lives alone, he's surrounded by adults. They are his neighbors and they actually love Kotaro, so they try their best to take care of him in their own way. <br> <center>  [IMAGE SOURCE](https://www.leisurebyte.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/2022-03-10-14_47_52-Netflix-%E2%80%94-Mozilla-Firefox-1024x576.jpg)</center> <br> From the left, they are (1) Isamu Tamaru, (2) Shin Karino and (3) Akitomo Mitsuki. These three really played a vital role in Kotaro's everyday life. They also have their own circumstances and somehow, being with Kotaro has also affected their decisions and way of thinking. <br> In the anime, Kotaro is also seen with other adults who has been a part of his past and also his friends who he met in his present. He's kind of popular because he's not only cute, but really has an interesting personality. <br> <center>【☆】★【☆】★【☆】★【☆】★【☆】</center> <br> <center>  [IMAGE SOURCE](https://i2.wp.com/readysteadycut.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/AAAABUtd0ge6vOFfj0DURxtu1SrqJOVx937jQIUPZLcCw-Ydr6JxHmBBnpWJ6hanwi78OucpTjqVy_IElnD8hXQJM037L1dK.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&ssl=1)</center> <br> To be honest, I really thought that this was just another feel-good and slow-paced story just like Gakuen Babysitters, but I thought wrong. There's much more to this story. I must say it's pretty deep and there are a lot of things we can learn from it. I got pretty emotional when watching it that I cried several times. Every episode was truly heartwarming. It might be a bit depressing especially when you can relate to the circumstances presented, but it'll be an eye-opener. <br> I never expected this anime to be this good. The art style might not be the best, but story wise? it'll really pull at your heartstrings. I won't be talking about these circumstances here, because I want you guys to watch it. It only has 10 episodes, but I'm actually hoping for a second season... or I'd read the manga instead. After watching it, I just wished I could go to his world and hug him. You'd probably feel the same. ^^ <br> I really highly recommend it... and when you're done watching, tell me what you think. :) <br> <center>【☆】★【☆】★【☆】★【☆】★【☆】</center> <br>
