In this hilarious anime full of hilarious short skits, “The Way of the Househusband,” or “Gokushufudou,” showcases a former yakuza (yakuza is “a Japanese organized crime syndicate similar to the Mafia” according to Oxford languages) boss, that is now a regular house-husband.
The the theme song “Shufu no Michi,” which is sung by Uchikubigokumon-Doukoukai, is one of the best anime openings I have ever heard, and I’ve heard some pretty good ones.
He is an ex-yakuza boss known as ” The Immortal Dragon,” who beat up a rival yakuza gang and then mysteriously disappeared.
This said ex-yakuza bosses name is, Tatsu, who has a wife named Miku, and their cat Gin, who live in an apartment in Japan.
We follow Tatsu as he cleans, cooks, shops, and other daily duties a housewife would do on their days at home.
Tatsu’s wife Miku works daily as she is the only one to bring in money for their household, while Tatsu does chores inside and outside the house hold.
Their cat, Gin, goes on small adventures outside the house, meeting other animals which ensues to a hilarious conversation between the two animals.
We also meet two of Tatsu’s friends who hang out with him and go places like a yoga/ exercise place, where hilarity ensues.
He runs into other yakuza bosses who want to fight him, but he always manages to out wit them by confusing them.
If you’re a person who loves anime this show will give you a good experience with comedy.
This new anime I got to watch will always make me smile, even if I watch it over again.
Watch this amazing anime even if you aren’t a fan of anime, I promise it is a good one filled with comedy and scenes that will make you laugh.
