Usagi Drop

This is a heartwarming tale of a single man taking in his young female relative who has lost her parent and raising her. Their relationships is a mix of father and daughter and brother and sister. Seeing the progression of their bond is sweet. However, do not read the manga cause it gets really weird after the anime storyline ends. It will ruin Usagi Drop for you if you read the rest of the story.

Hanamaru Kindergarten

ULTIMATE CUTENESS. That is how you can describe Hanamaru Kindergarten. It is the story of a new kindergarten teacher, who has one of his students madly in love with him. That student is the daughter of his former high school senior! This anime is full of cute and hilarious misunderstandings as the teacher and the student navigate kindergarten!

You get to follow his transition from an over-anxious city boy who learns the joy of farming and agriculture while growing as a person in the process.

Sweetness & Lightening

If you like stories of a single father raising his daughter alone then you need to watch this. This anime is centered on a single father who was too busy at work to care for his daughter properly, who makes a concerted effort to raise her properly. He learns how to cook and prepares delicious homemade food for her with help from one of his students, whose mother is a famous chef. This is another heartwarming tale.
