After graduating from the University of Tokyo and joining a major company, Hanamura Kaoru was on the fast track to becoming an elite, but for some reason, she suddenly quit her job and is now struggling to find a new one. Kaoru interviews with the venture company RAINBOWLAB, where she meets its president, Hidaka Mamie. Mamie is a high school dropout, but she's well-liked thanks to the exceptional communication skills she developed during her time as a delinquent. She's become the company's spokesperson, creating a huge buzz for the company's products, and is also a single mother raising her undisclosed daughter, Iroha, on her own. Kaoru is exhausted from her daily pursuit of the ideal workplace, but when Mamie offers her a well-paid position as a private tutor for Iroha, who is preparing for her elementary school entrance exams, she impulsively accepts.

A wholesome found family show
I'm amazed at how much I actually enjoyed this! It was really a heartwarming show despite all the drama.The premise of the show is about how a single mom hires a "fake mom" to help her daughter enter her dream elementary school. I would say this is quite a unique plot, and although they could have written some parts in a better way, I'm satisfied with the overall picture.
I loved how the characters were portrayed, each one of them were adorable in their own way. Loved loved the bond they formed and the way they became family and each other's safe place. Even if they are seen as "abnormal" or weird for being a family with two mothers, but all I saw was how happy Iroha was to have both mama and mommy by her side.
Kaoru is not really a loud person, but she surly knows how to speak up for herself when facing inequality, and not just endure it. And I love that about her. She found the reason to live through Mamie and Iroha, and that's beautiful how she was willing to protect them.
Adore Mamie so much, she is stays true herself even if others classify her as a "delinquent". She is a great CEO and an amazing mother who would do anything for her daughter, and is willing to learn and grow up.
Iroha is so adorable and precious, she is young but definitely smart and ambitious. The child actress was great too!
Even side characters were likable, Ryoma is such a sweet guy. I love him so much. He is genuinely the best!
And the "crow trio mothers" were enjoyable too. I'm glad they weren't evil as many other shows would have made them to be be.
The children's friendship was also wholesome.
Shingo is a piece of a sh*t, he is absolutely disgusting, and I hated every scene with him. I'm so mad that his wife didn't divorce him, and they redeemed him.
Overall, this was such an amazing watch for me! I might be overrating it a bit but that's just how much I loved it!
