In this emotional episode of Buddy Daddies, Rei wakes up from a nightmare and has breakfast with Kazuki, who tells him about his plan to visit Kyutaro to get information about Miri's mother. Kazuki feels like he can't properly take care of Miri the way they live, but Rei wonders if Kazuki can really let go of the bond they've developed.
During a visit to the park, Kazuki advises Miri not to call him "Papa" in public because he's worried someone might hear. Later, Miri struggles with this instruction when she's questioned by a local police officer. This leads to a heartwarming moment where Kazuki explains that it's okay to say "Papa" in certain situations, and Rei shows the same courtesy.
As the episode progresses, Miri and Rei share a tender moment in the bathtub, where Rei reveals his unusual sleeping habits, stemming from his upbringing. The next day, Kazuki and Rei take Miri to meet her mother. However, the encounter reveals the mother's negative feelings toward her daughter and her lack of interest in having a family of her own. This triggers a flashback in Kazuki, reminding him of a tragic event from his past.
Meanwhile, Rei loses sight of Miri in a park and finds her talking to police officers who believe she's lost. In a touching moment, Rei embraces his role as "Papa" and rescues Miri from the situation. The trio reunites, and Kazuki decides they should have dinner together, symbolizing their growing bond as a family.
This episode of Buddy Daddies stands out by focusing on the emotional connection between the characters rather than relying on forced humor. The development of Kazuki and Rei's backstory adds depth to their characters and piques our interest in their journey as assassins. The relationship between the three main characters is the highlight of the series so far, creating a beautiful mix of action, humor, and heartfelt moments.
Moving forward, it will be crucial for the series to maintain a balance between these two tones. The challenge lies in incorporating Miri into their missions, given that their line of work is unsuitable for a child. If the series can maintain the momentum of this episode, the future looks promising for Buddy Daddies.
