Mb | Mar 16, 2023 | Reading Time: 2 Min.
In this entertaining episode of Buddy Daddies, we see Kazuki and Rei trying to balance their roles as killers with their unexpected new responsibility for Miri. The episode begins with Miri needing help in the bathroom, and Kazuki, still getting used to her presence, wondering what he's gotten himself into.
Throughout the episode, the duo struggles to cope with Miri, who constantly brings chaos into their lives. They try to find information about her father but run into difficulties. When they take on a new job from their friend Kyutaro, they also encounter a mysterious man named Ogino Ryo, who seems like he’ll be of interest in future episodes.
At home, Miri’s funny antics and Kazuki and Rei’s inexperience with childcare lead to comedic moments. But as they prepare for their latest mission, they don’t know what to do with Miri. When their attempts to bribe her fail, they eventually take her along and leave her in the car while they infiltrate a drug lord’s villa.
Miri’s involvement in the mission leads to an exciting chase scene involving Kazuki, Rei, and the villa’s security. The episode ends with the realization that the two can’t continue their mission without Miri. Kyutaro delivers the information they were seeking about Miri’s father, and the mysterious Ogino eliminates their target.
This episode had its funny moments, but the humor sometimes felt repetitive and predictable. The balance between comedy and drama could have been better, as the focus on Kazuki and Rei’s ignorance about childcare came across as a bit exaggerated. However, the introduction of the mysterious Ogino Ryo and the potential for a larger plot arc add an intriguing element to the series.
