It is pretty cool to see accounts of kids watching Precure on Crunchyroll. I wonder how he deals with getting the toys for his daughter.

Well, this is certainly novel way to bring Pretty Cure and anime in general to the possible attention of an older audience that missed out on it. Though I'm sure a good quarter of them won't google Crunchyroll and will assume that the author made them up. Also I hope his daughter comes to like much better Precure series.

This is so cute and relatable.

I wonder if this is indicative that kids might actually be getting into Precure via watching it on Crunchyroll? The perks of legal streaming.

I lie upside down on the couch all the time. Sometimes even with my feet over the back.

Don't believe what the parents in American comics tell you.

A dude parodied this with King of the Hill's character and it worked quite well.

I'll be honest when I say,I like this. I remember seeing "Rex Morgan,M.D." in a lot of places,especially when I was a kid. For it to mention something like anime or Crunchyroll is kinda nice. There are still people who don't know about anime. I hope things like this continue.
