Side notes: For some reason my picks today include three mangas that have similar style, really short chapters (Kuro and Kakushigoto). From these two the later one has similar kind of setting with single parent, father, living with their daughter. Reason for this lies in my search for a manga that is soon to be aired anime in Summer 2016 but I've forgotten the name for it and so picking up mangas with similar genre type.^-^

This manga made me instantly think 12-sai anime that is currently airing but still although similar  with the age group they are really total opposites. The scoring on MAL And on Baka by the reader differs a bit. People on MAL give it most votes on 7/10 while on Baka the count is in favor of 10/10. The art is quite good and clean type although the colored pages weren't that good. The story is slice of life based working mainly on the material of everyday life and emotions. I'm turning on my heels and giving it same average score as the most people on MAL do.^-^

P.S. the start of the story is probably that many men are afraid to do and for that reason it's "classical" but it's pretty well managed so I'm not criticising it a lot. Just that it's too "obvious" and has nothing surprising in it.
