The Way of the Househusband, Vol. 1 by Kousuke Oono

5.0

---

This is a hilarious and original concept! A former Yakuza member, Tatsu, settles down, gets married, and becomes a househusband. His wife Miku is adorable and obsessed with a police anime called Policure. They also have a cat. The story follows our househusband as he makes elaborate bento boxes for his wife, cleans the house, battles the Roomba, goes to cooking class, does the shopping, and tries to avoid his former life as a Yakuza. So far it's more slice of life comedy than serious, but I do expect we will get more backstory later. I loved it!

I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!
