English Dub Review: Life Lessons with Uramichi Oniisan “Together with Maman Forever”

Overview:

The cast of Together with Maman is feeling like a final-episode-esque incident might happen today. Will something happen?

Our Take:

Usahara is looking into all sorts of final episode tropes to happen with “Together with Maman”. But with this being the show that it is, they all fail in hilarious anti-climactic ways. Lost child? Found in seconds. Utano might finally be getting married? Nope boyfriend just wanted to borrow some money. How about returning a lady’s handkerchief resulting in true love? Sorry, not the girl you were expecting.

The way that this show leans so hard into the tropes just to make fun of them is great. I really like the almost but not quite fourth wall breaking they do. They work on a tv show so they could just be talking about that but we kind of know as the audience.

So there was no big plot but for a show like this, I don’t think that is necessarily a bad thing. This is a slice of life at its finest with enjoyable and realistic characters. If you’re starting out in the adult world or have been immersed in it for a while, this show will speak to your heart. I really hope this gets a second season but it doesn’t need one either. This show was massively underrated and did not get talked about near enough when it aired.
