3.5 stars
A humorous slice-of-life comedy following a yakuza-member-turned-househusband as he navigates daily life. Follow Tatsu as he carries out duties like shopping for groceries, taking a cooking class, tackling a DIY project, and looking after a neighborhood kid.
While his tasks are often mundane, Tatsu’s old life catches up with him and his over-the-top mannerisms make for a hilarious read.
I watched the Netflix adaptation before reading the book and it seems to have done a good job of capturing Tatsu’s personality and antics.
The book consists of self-contained stories, perfect for a quick read. Fantastic artwork that perfectly captures Tatsu’s creepy yet sweet persona.
