Ep 5: Daikichi Should Stay Daikichi
Daikichi finally meets Rin's mother, Masako, and he's shocked by her frankness. When they part, Masako asks Daikichi for a favor, and it's an issue that Daikichi can't avoid, as long as he's going to raise Rin. Daikichi tries to resolve it by having a heart-to-heart conversation with Rin, but he gets an unexpected answer...
Ep 6: My Tree
When Rin enters elementary school, Daikichi proposes planting a tree to commemorate the occasion. Rin plants a loquat seed in the yard, but there's no telling whether it will actually put forth buds. Thinking that perhaps Souichi planted something to mark Rin's birth, Daikichi has another visit with Masako...
Ep 7: Secretly Running Away From Home
Daikichi's cousin, Haruko, runs away from home to Daikichi's house with her daughter Reina in tow. Daikichi can hardly fathom Haruko's determination, but when he does learn her reasons, he's not a little surprised by how strong Haruko has become as a mother. It gets him thinking again about what marriage and family mean.
Ep 8: Precious to Grandpa
During Rin's summer vacation, Daikichi and Rin visit Souichi's grave, where they find an ink bottle and bellflowers. Daikichi runs after Masako, Rin's mother, who had just been there, and when he catches up, offers her an unusual proposal.
Ep 9: A Typhoon Has Come!
At school, Rin is concerned that the disobedient Kouki is getting off track and getting a bad reputation. Meanwhile, when a typhoon hits, Kouki and his mom take shelter with Daikichi and Rin at their house.
Ep 10: Stomach Flu
Daikichi feels helpless when Rin is laid up with stomach flu, so Kouki's mother steps in to give them both a hand.

Some points:
- Continue to be a nice slice of life anime to watch.
- Daikichi is such a nice guy and so down to earth :)
- Kouki's mother is very strong.

Bottom line, what a nice series.

The First Step
It's the first anniversary of Grandpa's death, which means Rin and Daikichi have been living together for about a year now. Daikichi mulls over what he's lost and what he's gained since Rin came into his life...
Some points:
- The season ends at the same place as the manga #4.
- Very nice.
