Found family anime recommendation list
I've been thinking about making this rec list for a while because found family is my absolute favorite trope, so this is really self indulging haha 🤭
these are just some of my personal favorites, but if you guys have more recommendations please add them!
(This list contains spoilers!)
1. Dororo- absolutely heartbreaking and beautiful. the two main characters, Dororo and Hyakkimaru, develop such a special and precious bond throughout the story, and what makes it even more interesting is that at the beginning, Hyakkimaru is not able to see, hear, or really communicate with Dororo, and he gets those abilities slowly throughout the story (through killing demons haha yes it's that kind of story), so it makes the development of their relationship really unique. Both of them don't have their actual families for different reasons, but I absolutely LOVE the familial relationship they develop!
2. spy x amily - everyone's new favorite family lol. I don't think I need to elaborate, I love the little family they've built. it's so cute how all three of them have their own selfish reasons to want to keep this family unit, but at the same time care so deeply (and obliviously) for each other, I love it! there's not a single character I dislike, there wasn't a single episode i was bored watching (so far). it's like the perfect found family - they found each other, and just created a family instantly haha. If for any reason you're still not watching this, you really really should
3. banana fish - ugh honestly it's hard to find words for this one, it's so so SO good, but also, watch at your own risk, it's been years and my heart still hasn't recovered. The relationship between the two main characters, Ash and Eiji, is so beautiful and touching and tender, and it's so satisfying to watch. Ash deserves all the love omg 😭 I love how they take care of each other, how it's obvious to everyone how much they love each other. and i hate how it ended but that's a talk for another time...
4. Run with the wind - ok so i think most sports anime have an aspect of found family - your teammates become kinda your family, and friendships and bonds are usually the main focus. but i think it's especially highlighted in run with the wind - it's a show about running a marathon, and it's in a university setting (which already makes it more interesting lol). i LOVE connections between the characters. here as well, there's not a single character i dislike. even king who i didn't really care about in the beginning, I grew to love so much by the end. and Haiji might be my favorite character of all times. like throughout all platforms, he's my favorite. he created this team and he made them a family and i just wish i had a haiji in my life, you know? 😭
5. march comes in like a lion - ok, so, this one is especially precious to me, and i think it's my favorite anime of all times. officially, the show is about a boy who plays shogi professionally, and it is a part of it, but there's so much more to this anime. I've never watched anything that handled depression, and the journey of getting better, in a more accurate way than this show. the main character, Rei, is an orphan, and has a really complicated life story. he meets these three sisters, and is kinda invited to be a part of their little family. the relationships in this show are so touching and tender, even when nothing sad was happening i found myself crying. the sisters basically adopt rei, and little by little help him heal some of his wounds. the visuals of this show are perfect, you can feel everything rei is feeling. the sisters' house feels warm and inviting, while other spaces feel cold and disconnected. it's brilliant. also, the show handles the different characters with so much care, you end up caring about them all. i can go on forever lol, it's a masterpiece.
6. kids on the slope - another brilliant show. this is a slice of life, and the focus is on the friendship of three teens in the 60's. i love this one because even though they all have families that play a part in the story, they still become like a family to one another. their relationships are so touching, and so realistic. it deals with jealousy and friendship and love and loneliness in such a realistic, relatable way. for example one of the boys gets really jealous when his friend gets a new friend, it makes him lash out in such an unreasonable way, but at the same time you can totally relate to what he's feeling, because like, which one of us hasn't been there, right? i really recommend! (Also, the music is absolutely fantastic!)
7. Umibe no Etranger- maybe some people would think this doesn't belong here, but i totally think that along with love, this movie is totally about found family 😊 the two main boys are both on their own, Mio because he was orphaned, and Shun because he lost connection with his family after coming out. throughout the story, they become each other's family and support system (especially if you keep reading the manga like i have hehe🤭). i love their relationship so much!
8. fruits basket - again, maybe it's not the main trope, but it's definitely very much there! tohru, who is left without a family, finds a new family in the form of the very dysfunctional sohma family, that cares about her immensely, while she also cares about them and helps them heal and break their curse. i never read the manga or watched the old anime, and i didn't expect this to be as deep and painful as it was, but honestly one of my favorite shows right now.
9. Poko's udon world - so! freaking! cute! is it a ploy to make people have families and kids? perhaps. do i care? nope. Poko is the cutest child character ever, and the parent-child relationship between sota and poco is so precious, this is the most literal definition of a found family lol- sota found poco and basically instantly adopted him. the story is really touching and cute!
10. Clannad + Clannad after story - ugh i don't know if I'm able to talk about this one again, as it makes my heart hurt. this is one of my all time favorites. i think even though it's a love story, above all else it's a story about family. i wasn't sure if it fits the "found family" category but decided it does. even before nagisa and tomoya get married, tomoya is basically adopted by nagisa's family. they take him in to allow him some distance from his father, and show him how happy and loving a family can be. Also, all the friendship in the story are meaningful and have a familial feel to them. throughout the show there's a lot of focus on the subject of family, which leads to the main characters creating their own new little family unit. if you've been living under a rock i must warn you, I've never cried this much while watching a show in my life. while the ending is a happy one (well... in a bizarre kind of way, i guess), there's so much pain throughout the whole show, it's overwhelming at times. still, it's so so good and i really recommend to give it a try! (please, get through the first season and get to Clannad after story, it's really worth it!)
11. Usagi drop- i also wasn't sure if this fits the found family category, as it deals with an actual family, but wth, it's my list i can do what i want lol. very sweet story about a guy who adopts his grandfather's 6 year old daughter when he dies (yes, his aunt, basically), when no one else in the family wants to take her in. it's very sweet, very touching. they slowly become a family, and he learns what it means to be a single parent, and what sacrifices he has to make (like getting demoted at his job so he'll have more time to take care of his kid). the show is very wholesome, but don't read the manga, as i heard it went in different, less wholesome directions.
12. kotaro lives alone- this show was a ride! i was expecting a silly show about a 4 year old boy who lives alone, and got a heartbreaking show about neglect and trauma. his neighbors become his family throughout the show, and come to love him a lot and take care of him, and their relationships are very entertaining and sweet. ngl, i cried a lot during this show. i do think it deals with some very triggering things, so you should check that before watching 😊
and.. that's it for now! these are the ones i thought about so far, please feel free to add your own recommendations! i would love to get more!

sorry if this has been asked before but 10 of your top blorbos you need to protect at all cost?
No worries! I think I've done it a long time ago so it's nice to do it again after I've had ventured thru new fandoms :) Rather I'll rank them into my blorbos to protect and blorbos who will kick my as$ if I try to protect them.
Will protect at all cost:
1. Ichikura Hayate - will forever be my favorite son that I coddle and spoil rotten. I'll keep his purity and innocence forever not to be stained by this rotten world. I'll fight Mima for him, I will win because Mima hates fighting, but Hayate will still choose Mima over me *sob*
2. Rihito Hiyakawa - my eldest son is canonically 4 yrs older than me lmao. Mikado has done great job taking care of him. Basically he's doing job nobody else could do. But still Hiyakawa's mental health needs protection. I'll refer him to some of great shrinks I know personally.
3. Handa Seishuu and Naru - these two come in one pack and nobody can ever separate them! They already protect each other plenty enough so all I need to do is to let Hiro do all the work while I'm watching happily on the sideline.
4. Lee Shihyeon (Ishida Kenji) - my 3rd son 😭 I'll sneak into the jail and korosu his mom while she sleeps for what he did to this angel. I give full authority to Kang Youngwoo to be his hubby so he'd be the one protecting him from now on.
5. Poco - my youngest kid. At the end of the series, he says goodbye to Papa Souta. That's because this little cutie babe is now living happily with me.
6. Ueda Tane - I lured him out from Yutaka using the biggest bomb onigiri and tako-san wiener. Now he's playing and living with Poco and Gakuto.
7. Yuzuki Gakuto - I mean have you seen this little bean??! He's the most well-behaved and mature out of everyone in this list.
Will kick my as$ if i try to protect them:
1. Fujiwara Shuu - what can this commoner do to protect a prince like him?? Minato already takes good care of him so I'm jobless. I've been planning to submit job application as Toujou-san's apprentice but by the time I become a butler at the Fujiwara residence, Shuu already leaves home.
2.Choso - obviously he doesn't take lightly to be coddled cz "I'm the oldest of ten brothers" yadda yadda "I need to be strong for my little brothers" yadda yadda "I don't need protection, I will protect my little brothers with my life" yadda yadda.
3. Jiang Cheng - I mean obviously this tsundere purple kitten will scratch me if I so much as to approach him. Since I'm neither Jin Ling nor Lan Xichen then I'm not qualified to baby him. But I secretly baby him from afar.

Anime recs incoming!
Mob Psycho 100 (The themes and how the coming of age stor in this one are very well done plus the animation for the action sequences are insanely good)
Shirokuma Cafe (Lots of Japanese puns courtesy of Polar Bear himself, a cute relaxing comedy. Shares the lead voice actor with the above series where he's cast as the deuteragonist)
My Love Story!! (Adorable shoujo rom com with a distinct twist to the formula)
Poco's Udon World (A well written fantasy iyashikei interwoven with many life lessons and a satisfying ending to boot; the manga is being scanalated and can be found on most manga reader sites)
Cells at Work (Action comedy edutainment with multiple spinoffs; just don't read the Code Black spinoff, everything else is light and fluffy especially the Platelets one)
Restaurant to Another World (Cozy actually-sort-of-reverse-isekai about comfort food and how it connects people together)
How to Keep a Mummy (Ridiculously Cute Critter Iyashikei: The Series)
Ngl I'm gonna toss out Mob Psycho as a recommendation since it's not really my kind of anime from what I've seen of it, sorry friend no offense!
But all your other recommendations sound awesome and I might check them all out someday!
Thank you for sending these in and have an awesome day friend!!

5/27/23 - Catching Up! Double Chapter Upload: Ch. 56 & 57 Out Now! Vol. 11 Done; Next is Vol. 1!
Tumblr media
Hello again, everyone!
First off, I would like to apologize for the lateness! Without getting too much into it, I’ve just been working a lot lately and I’ve been too exhausted during the times that I would normally work on scanlation that I’ve been passing out more likely than not. (It’s about a 85% chance that I instantly pass out after eating. And, let’s just say that these past three weeks, I’ve been making very unlucky rolls...) Unfortunately, that’s the way things are and I don’t foresee them changing anytime soon. Nonetheless, I will still carry on through regardless, so I thank you all for your understanding as we carry back through Volume 1 again and then onto the last two remaining Volumes...
As catch-up for my delays, I’ve decided to try and stay on schedule and post the chapter due two weeks ago and the chapter due for this two-week schedule. They should both be available on Mangadex right now! Please read them and tell me what you think!
For the future, I would just like to re-iterate that I’m still deciding on going back and making my own version of Volume 1. With that, I will be trying to edit the mistakes and up the quality of my entire scanlation thus far before beginning on Volume 11 and 12. This is a very selfish decision, but I believe it the best before moving onto the finale.
Speaking on the translation parts, I haven’t been able to finish translating the end of Volume 11 nor even completing the translations for Volume 1. Now that Volume 10 is completed, these will be what I will immediately do next. However, based on my current situations, I would expect some delays. I apologize.
And, I think that’s it for now! I thank everyone for sticking around with me and my scanlation and for enjoying this series alongside with me! As always, I am always looking to improve myself, my scanlation, and how I run this account, so, please, if you have any tips or criticism, please do not hesitate to send them my way! I would only like what is best for the series, especially as we are almost in the final stretch! Until next time, take care!
- agnyS
Tumblr media
Shunsuke telling you to not look for spoilers for Volume 11 and 12 while I make my own scanlation of Volume 1.

There are people out there who aren't into mainstream anime and have more niche interests...and that's okay.
