Yeah, the manga's ending is a creepy trainwreck and manages to completely sour the rest of the entire series, which is an impressive and disastrous feat. I was gobstruck when I reached those chapters. The anime does it right: it completely avoids the timeskip.

It was a twist to be sure, but it wasn't that big a thing imo |

It was a twist to be sure, but it wasn't that big a thing imo In some ways it isn't even a twist. The anime remarked that her hair was so thin, unlike anyone in her family and the hair color was obvious. And, his grandfather did hook up with her mother when she was very young. Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide So it turns out grandfather wasn't her father, not a surprise. But they are very close and grandpa liked them young while mom liked them old so their ages are just right if apples don't fall far from the tree. Anyone who has seen anime or manga should not be surprised, so often it turns out that the girl is not really related to oniichan or ojichan so... All systems are GO!!!!! |

Yo dog, let me lay it out straight for you.
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide Marrying your adopted daughter you raised from a few years old to adult ain't cool, it's incredibly creepy. Even if you're not blood related, which was as big an ass-pull as I've ever seen. The characters all suddenly had lobotomies and acted like unreasonable morons for most of the timeskip, and for such a relaxed, fairly lighthearted(although serious when it needed to be) series, it was an absolutely jarring divergence. Trainwreck is a perfectly accurate description. The anime version is honestly nearly flawless, but the manga version is absolutely not. edit: lol and anime fans wonder why normal people think they're weird. Jesus, that post above mine. Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide Didn't you say you had two children of your own? Would you find it completely normal to marry your daughter when she grows up, assuming one of them is a girl? |

Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide The time skip seemed pretty relaxed and light hearted until it needed to be serious if you ask me. While it may be different for Daikichi, Rin has told him many times, since she was a kid, that he didn't feel like a father to her. And Lobotomies? lol what? Sometimes you just can't help what you feel and the manga handled that in a far more adult and thought provoking way than 99% of other media, and if you think similar things don't happen in real life, you are sadly mistaken. |

Similar things DO happen. They are also looked down upon and considered revolting by a large part of society.
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide If you don't find a child marrying her father incredibly wrong, you got issues. And the not-blood-related thing in the manga was yanked from the deepest depths of the author's colon. Everyone acted really retarded in the last few chapters. Of COURSE you're a brony. Of course. |

Bringing up something completely unrelated to try and "win" a discussion. The very definition of a fool. Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide A: Was never her father regardless. B: It's the author's business what she wants to do with the story. It was actually pretty obvious looking back on it. C: Nobody acted "retarded" (extremely poor choice of words) did you think the manga was "gay"(meaning bad) too? Was it strange? sure. Was it bound to be unappealing to people? Uh-huh. Was it the ending I would of chose? nope. Was the handling of an extremely taboo subject done with grace and tact? You better believe it. However, the author did not ruin his/her work in any way, shape or form. This was most likely the plan from the beginning. I highly doubt it was just "pulled out of the deepest part of their colon" as you put it. But no, please continue with your train of thought, there's nothing wrong there at all |

Click to show or hide I thought it was completely obvious from the anime that she was NOT related to them. Her hair color was obviously completely wrong and Daikichi even remarked about it when brushing it, how fine it was, much finer than if she was related. He said he didn't feel like a father. Always said he wasn't her father, and he wasn't. As it turns out, she wasn't his aunt either. I say it was not yanked from anywhere, it was intended from the start that she wasn't a relation at all. |

If that wasn't the case all along, there would of been no point to bringing all that stuff up over and over again. |
