The Way of the Househusband (Japanese: 極主夫道, Hepburn: Gokushufudō, lit. 'Extreme Way of the Househusband') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kousuke Oono. Published in the online manga magazine Kurage Bunch since 2018, The Way of the Househusband follows an ex-yakuza member who retires from crime to become a househusband. The series was adapted into a live-action television drama by Nippon TV in 2020.

An original net animation (ONA) series produced by J.C.Staff was released from April to October 2021 on Netflix. A second season premiered in January 2023.

Synopsis

[edit]

Tatsu, an infamous and feared yakuza boss nicknamed "the Immortal Dragon", retires from crime to become a househusband so that he can support Miku, his kyariaūman wife. The episodic series depicts a variety of comedic scenarios, typically wherein Tatsu's banal domestic work as a househusband is juxtaposed against his intimidating personality and appearance, and his frequent run-ins with former yakuza associates and rivals.

Reception

[edit]

Critical reception

[edit]

The Way of the Househusband has been positively received by critics. Reviewing the first volume of the series for Polygon, writer Julia Lee called The Way of the Househusband "the perfect blend of comedy and action" and "a nice, silly pick-me-up manga."[62] Anime News Network gave the series 4.5 out of 5 stars, calling it "confident and expertly paced, with gorgeous artwork and perfect comic timing."[63] Conversely, Reuben Baron of Comic Book Resources summarized the series as having a "cute premise, but not one with a ton of variation," though he offered praise for the quality of its art.[3]

The anime series, while originally highly anticipated, was heavily criticized for its limited animation, which resembled a motion comic rather than anime.[64] Meanwhile, in the Chinese version which was released on bilibili, the tattoos were completely removed due to television censorship in China.[65]

Sales

[edit]

By December 2019, The Way of the Househusband had 1.2 million copies in print.[4] In Oricon's sales rankings, the first volume of The Way of the Househusband had sold 95,637 copies by September 2018,[66] while the second volume had sold 143,051 copies by January 2019.[67] The first volume of the English-language translation of the series placed sixteenth in Nielsen BookScan's best-selling graphic novels for adults in September 2019.[68]
