@kazureiweek Day 1: First(s)

I just finished Buddy Daddies and today is the start of KazuRei week, and also it's in Pride month, so why not draw their first pride parade lol (I am so SO normal about these three)

Extra: They were all very hyped (ignore the lack of bags and outfit inconsistencies)

Kazuki does rei’s hair because that’s the only person he trusts to hold a potentially dangerous/sharp object around him

Kazuki kurusu the comedian

What should I make Miri as? 🤔

[kay-elan]

is it just me or did the ppl in this fandom die already (im dying but trying my best)

[phlox238]

oh my GOD the buddy daddies finale was great

i know everyone's probably disappointed that rei and kazuki aren't canonically gay, i am too tbh, but regardless of what their relationship is (friends, lovers, whatever) we know that they're going to be together forever, even after miri grows older and moves out, and i think that's beautiful. it doesn't need to be romantic, and that's ok.

it's just so cool to see an "unconventional" family in anime, two fathers and a girl who doesn't have blood relations to either of them. i hope there's gonna be more content for this series, i would love to see what they get up to now that miri is a teen and the guys running the diner

Kazuki: I'm gonna get a good grade at being a dad, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve

[rainydipandpip]

just needed to say this but uh BUDDY DADDIES LAST EPISODE!?!!??!?!! they get their happy ending and miri grows up AND THEY OWN A CAFE!!!??! MIRI IS IN HIGH SCHOOL!!!?!

but also like, what did they tell miri? did they tell miri? anyways, i won't think too hard about it because they get to live out their life as a family and that's good enough for me

[imafraidoftomorrow]

What an utterly exhausting day, but a fantastic one nonetheless. I got to meet a few of the coolest English VAs in the industry. Johnny Yong Bosch (Tomioka, Sasori, Vash), Austin Tindle (Kaneki, Monoma, Knives), Landon McDonald (Enmu, Kamo, Kazuki), and Tony Oliver (Minato) to name a few.

Austin Tindle surprised me by being the sweetest and the funniest dude ever, and he noticed that I was in the audience at his Q&A panel before I met him 😭😭😭

@kazureiweek day 5: Date night

Sorry for the late post I got demotivated like a lot but my brainrot won in the end...

I'll try to marathon the last two so wish me (my wrist) luck

[unfortunatelypassionate]

The homophobic subtext of rei’s dad telling rei that he “only exists to carry on the blood line” and his continued emphasis on the “suwa” name has me imagining rei cutting ties with the family and changing his surname to kusuru (I am being delusional) (like come on kusuru rei sounds so nice 🥺)

[hano0onat]

Happy birthday kazuki !! It’s little late but I did it!

TwT my soul is blessed with softness and cuteness

rei and miri's physicality: a chronological analysis (part 1)

Time to go into one of the meta topics that has been buzzing in my head for a while now. It's about how Miri and Rei interact with respect to physical contact, and how I am smitten by the way he's so gentle with her and lets her take liberties with him. This is gonna be long and image-heavy. I have to split it into two parts because of the image limit.

Episode 2! This is the first time that Miri and Rei have physical contact with each other, and it's Kazuki pawning her off to Rei so he can make breakfast without her running underfoot.

As I went to get these screencaps, I noticed that Rei's hands automatically come up to hold her even though he's clearly kind of sceptical about the arrangement at this point. (Lol at Kazuki backing away as though he's afraid Miri is radioactive).

Episode 3! And here begins a running gag about Miri's favourite way to wake up Rei lmao.

I'm curious as to why Rei was sleeping on the sofa to begin with, when that's where they put Miri until she gets her own room in episode 4, and Miri didn't know Rei slept in the bathroom until later on.

Miri goes looking for Rei after Kazuki turns down her request to sleep with him. She finds Rei sleeping in the bathtub as per usual for him and eagerly clambers into the tub so she can sleep with him. Going by the setup of Misaki's apartment in episode 11, she's probably used to sleeping with her mother.

Despite his resting bitch face and reserved demeanour, Miri is already super comfortable with him. She's plopped on his chest, pawing at his face, and goading him to smile. And Rei is very accommodating of her whims. He later tells her to stop kicking the back of his seat in the car, but doesn't tell her to stop pawing at his face. Around this time in the story, Kazuki complained about her climbing into his lap when he was trying to eat, but Rei just....lets this happen lol.

There's a cut out and it fades back into her asleep in the tub, wrapped in Rei's blanket as he looks down at her from outside it. The implication seems to be that she just tired herself out pawing at Rei and then he relinquished his sleeping spot, probably to go out on the sofa.

Such a significant moment. I had already realised that this was the first time that Rei had addressed Miri by name, but it was only while I was drafting this post that it hit me that this was also the first time he had willingly and consciously initiated physical contact with her. I also think it's significant that he repeats the 'Let's go home, Miri' line after she's jumped into his arms. It's him fully committing to the sentiment.

It's sweet how after he has made his 'I'm her papa' resolve, he doesn't seem to put her down again until they meet back up with Kazuki.

Episode 4!

It's so adorable how Miri loves climbing on Rei and how he just let's her despite him not being a tactile person.

Him keeping Miri on his lap after they both woke up from their nap is so precious.

Tsundere Rei lol. Even though he acted very put upon to be there, he was clearly paying attention and even anticipated the high five coming before Kazuki did.

I think this is the only instance of her hugging both their legs at once and I love it. I love it! It's so dear to me. I love this family 😭

Episode 5!

Rei's expression here is golden. Miri, like most small children, is very adorable. But, also like most small children, she can be very annoying lol.

We get another instance of her preferred method of waking up Rei--jumping on him--band she even shakes him for good measure, but he's simply too tired to react.

This is also a good point to note the difference between him sensing something and waking up before she even flipped the lights in episode 3 and the way he's now so comfortable with her presence here that can even sleep through her deliberately trying to wake him.

I wish I had a gif because screenshots do not do justice to the softness with which Rei picks up and gazes at Miri while she's asleep. He's 1000% having a 'that's my baby girl; I'm her dad' moment.

And just look at his expression after Kyu reveals he knows what the deal is. He's nervous about what Kyu will do, and there's also so much 'don't take her away from me' energy coming off him. I see in him shades of the Rei who will tell Kazuki that he wants to keep taking care of her after her mother is killed.

And that's part one! Part two will be linked here.

Shortly after the ending, Rei is still adjusting to his new life, but is happy about it, now waking up in Kazuki's bedroom every time 💖 (and if Miri was having a sleepover with a friend, Rei would be wearing ONLY Kazu's hoodie😏)

[jenanigans1207]

The fact that Kazuki is both a Malewife and a jock

This is what they mean when they say get a man who can do both
