With a cast like this, I expected it to be good and it was. It's a very predictable story but still very well done. |
| 7. | Comments by MixxDreamer [Rating: 9/10]
very good storylines, the characters are awesome, specially bec. they're my favorite. very touching. i dont see how many people dont like it, but im thinking it has higher ratings bec. of the popular castings |

good story |
| 9. | Comments by jo [Rating: 7/10]
AN A+ CAST but a D- Script! Pretty weak on story, I wonder why those four actresses even accepted this drama(maybe they got paid more).Funny at times but I thought the story was just circling around some simple things. Which is kinda sad that they couldn't come up with a better story for each sisters in this drama. Hirosue was FUNNY though! so that's a positive^_^. |

Great family drama with great cast. A little bit draggy at some part, however it's quite funny and enjoyable drama too at the same time. |

I watched this summer of 2003 while I was living with my father. (Before Asahi Homecast ruined their schedual and were playing Dorama or something else cool EVERY night! ;_;) I found that I could relate to the girls, especially about being protective of their Dad. Was really cute and really fun to watch, Glad I got to see it. |

I enjoyed the show very much so much so that I bought the VCD after watching it on TV...like it better than Oyaji. |

I love watching soaps on Japanese living. This is one of them. I'm impressed with how patient the directors are when they shoot different facial reactions. |

great family drama with a superb cast |
| 21. | Comments by Peachy [Rating: 9/10]
It is a very well done series and I think that all actors and actresses who played in it did a very good job. Its nice to watch a show that shows how important the family is and how it is important to show your love to the ones who love you. |

| 23. | Comments by tsuyoshi7nhwi [Rating: 10/10]
Probably the most star-studded cast I've ever seen: Tamura Masakazu, Iijima Naoko, Nakatani Miki, Hirosue Ryoko AND Fukada Kyoko. Whew! A heart-warming story about a widower (Tamura) and his four, very different daughters. All I can say is, watching this made me want to thank my parents and let them know I love them. Oh, and the song, "Clover," by Cune is AWESOME. |
| 24. | Comments by bunnikawaii [Rating: 9/10]
Love this dorama! Also a tear jerker. I just wish they were able to show the father actually get married. I liked the Kei's story line. Another favorite of mine. : ) |

Dec 2003: Great cast, great acting but weak script...the beginning was quite boring, and is getting better the rest, the leads acted very well, it could have been better.. |

usual family drama, but the cast is just amazing... |
| 29. | Comments by yume [Rating: 4/10]
Same father from Oyaji, and toned down a little. The story never caught my eye in any part really. It seemed too predictable, I guess. |

| 34. | Comments by ochanto [Rating: 8/10]
May be I like watch Kyoko TV Series, When this one come out I have brought this VCD, not bad at all, The show told you four different woman with their father very interesting, It do tell you the model lady in Japan. The father is very famous Japanese actor!!! |
| 35. | Comments by DragonSpirit164 [Rating: 8/10]
Hmmm, enjoyable drama even though it is a little too slow moving for my liking. Storyline is similar to that of Oyaji, about a father taking care of his family, but this time without a wife. Naturally, the family gets into as many mishaps as possible along the way haha.. Shoulda got a 7 from me, but the star studded cast of Iijima Naoko, Nakatani Miki, Hirosue Ryoko and Kyoko Fukada was a joy to watch. Not as good as Oyaji IMO, but nice to watch nevertheless.. |
| 36. | Comments by heimu [Rating: 9/10]
Like all family type dorama, it's so entertaining and so emotion, you may laugh, cry, get angry and smile all you like ;) |
| 37. | Comments by thetenken [Rating: 6/10]
A pretty good family/aloof-father drama. Lots of cheesy/preachy moments. |
| 38. | Comments by nagaioyasumi [Rating: 7/10]
A nice family show but sometimes a little too melodramatic. Loved the hilarious Makoto and Hide subplot, but Kei's self-conceit really got on my nerves. Is it just me, or did FukaKyo's make-up seem very weird when she worked at the nightclub? Her eyebrows looked funny. |
| 39. | Comments by haydenz [Rating: 8/10]

| 42. | Comments by eltinator [Rating: 9/10]
Ah the classic dad tamaru Masakazu. I liked him better in Oyaji but with 4 beautiful ladies, how can anyone not like this drama!?!? A strong plot and good acting, maybe too many stars and not enough screen time though. |
| 43. | Comments by ssaturn3689 [Rating: 10/10]
Heart-warming...sentimental plot, especially between Shindo and Anzai -- the picture would have been better if he just cracked a smile ne ne?? I really like Outousan ^.^
I can relate to Makoto's and Akira's story in some ways -- everyone can relate to the four daughters' stories somehow...such a good quality to have in order to make a series give that "umph" effect *_^ |

A family drama, but the story just wasn't working. The cast was what saved this drama. |
| 48. | Comments by ephesus [Rating: 9/10]
Awesome drama, a tiny bit tedious near the end when the character conflicts seem a little ridiculous, but in general a great drama. If kyoko wasn't such a GOD AWFUL actress, it would be a perfect drama |
| 49. | Comments by kaonashi [Rating: 8/10]
Kind of an Oyaji II. This one's a bit better though. The story & the characters are more intersting to follow & to run a sobashop is more original than beeing a doctor. The usual family drama with a happy end. Not bad. 8- |

| 53. | Comments by Zie75 [Rating: 10/10]
this father daughter story remind me to my father a lot which he did not like the idea of all his daughers stay away from him but time goes by especially when the daughters thinks that marriage is the easiest way to go out from home which turn to be the worst idea. each of the daughter did not understand the way of caring and love that the father gave which end up quarrel among each other. the thing is the father (mother) know the children very well....ya..i agree 100%. i cried when watched this drama...i miss my otousan.... |

Wow, talk about 4 beautiful daughters (Iijima Naoko, Nakatani Miki, Hirosue Ryoko, Fukada Kyoko)! I'd give Otousan an 8.5/10 if possible. Good family drama, brings up a lot of issues relating to choosing one's path in life and following your dreams and making sacrifices. Lunch at Miyuki Soba sounds good, ne? |
| 70. | Comments by moonchyld [Rating: 6/10]
has an all-star cast.. but the story is pretty predictable as it is quite a cliche family drama... if u like the cast, then watch it and see the diff kind of roles the stars portray (e.g. hirosue as an inert and submissive girl)..but other than that, it doesn't have much to offer. |
| 71. | Comments by fahsum [Rating: 9/10]

| 81. | Comments by aiscess [Rating: 8/10]
Despite all the bad critisms...I pretty much enjoyed watching this series. Maybe because I can relate to it. |
| 82. | Comments by Qky [Rating: 9/10]
A very nice drama about an ordinary life of a family (pretty similar to Oyaji). so touching and tear-jerker. i definitely recommend this one, not to mention, there are four babes in one drama! :P.. Plus a great acting by Tamura Masakazu makes this drama a must-see one. |
| 83. | Comments by jetjet [Rating: 8/10]
a great one! impossible to say who is my favorite daughter. The story is common but the cast is worth-watching. Very entertaining. |

Sweet family drama. A little too scripted and hokey at times, but other times it's really touching and you can see how much they care about each other. I liked it! |

Not bad at all, I really lked it, of course it does influence that they have good actors in it, except for Fukakyon.... |
| 96. | Comments by Shindou [Rating: 9/10]
Almost an exact replica of Oyaji. Despite that, judging by the acting and the story/acting, this series is deserving of an 8.5, just like Oyaji. Excellent acting once again by Tamura Masakazu and Hirosue Ryoko and Iijima Naoko and Nakatani Miki were great additions to the cast. Music was light-hearted and fun and there were plenty of things happening in the plot to keep you entertained. |

a story about a dad with their 4 daugthers |
| 101. | Comments by kartanoman [Rating: 10/10]
Another funny Tamura Masakazu dorama that pairs him with Ryoko Hirosue again (from Oyaji) and other fine performers that has a story plot that generally goes along the lines as Oyaji with a different family make-up. This dorama influenced my wife and I to try buckwheat soba (excellent, by the way)! Had a chuckle when Tamura and Ryoko Moriyama were singing the theme song to Oyaji (i.e. "Sayonara Daisukina Hito" by Hana Hana) in the koraoke house! Bottom line: if you enjoyed Oyaji, you'll like this one! |
| 102. | Comments by agp_frick [Rating: 9/10]
Great drama! Even though the story always revolves around the family, I think this drama has a really nice touching story... Masakazu Tamura's (the one played otousan) acting is really great...!!! |
| 103. | Comments by v1olet [Rating: 9/10]
Nice family drama. It's about day-to-day life of 4 daughters with their stubborn dad who cannot express his love n care to his children. |
| 104. | Comments by Ezalor [Rating: 7/10]
It's quite a reamke of Oyaji~ with same main actor. An widowed father of four daughters struggles to tighten the family bonds. Features good chemistry between the actors, but there's nothing special. |

Life with Dad |
| 106. | Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 6/10]
This should of been a fun show but Tamura Masakazu was a just a bit too annoying to enjoy the whole series...It must be quite difficult to have a arrogant father like him...... |
| 107. | Comments by yourasthma [Rating: 7/10]
if i hadn't watched oyaji, i'd probably give this a higher rating... so watch this show before giving oyaji a go.
the characters here are less likeable. in oyaji, it was reasonable for the children to rebel against their extremist dad, but here, the daughters seem to rebel without much cause. i also did not like kyoko fukada's character nor did i understand her problems. less chemistry between all the actors and the characters' problem seem too trivial. my fave would have to be ryoko hirosue who ironically was my least fave in oyaji. the final episode bumped the rating up from 7 to 8. |
