This is an early to mid 90s anime tv show which has won awards for its story. I watched this in Arabic and then in Japanese and both audios were brilliant. The character development was incredible and very touching between the brothers and their father. It begins by introducing the small family who've recently lost their mother/wife. Some scenes makes one tearful as it really depicts the grief from each family member including the baby. But especially the 10 year-old boy who matures throughout the story to become an independent self confident reliable individual. This show is very underrated and deserves more attention. It's short, only 33 episodes or so but definitely worth a watch.

"Aka-chan to Boku" is a delightful anime that left me utterly captivated with its endearing story of family bonds and personal growth. The acting in this series is nothing short of exceptional, as the voice actors skillfully breathe life into their characters, evoking genuine emotions that resonate with the audience. The film editing is smooth and well-paced, ensuring that every moment feels purposeful and engaging. The show's strength lies in its heartwarming narrative, which explores the challenges and joys of parenthood and sibling relationships. However, there are moments when the pacing feels a tad slow, which could be considered a minor weakness. The music complements the story beautifully, enhancing the emotional depth of each scene. "Aka-chan to Boku" delivers a powerful message about the importance of family, resilience, and the power of love. The cinematography captures both the mundane and magical moments of everyday life with finesse, making it a visual treat. Overall, with a rating of 8/10, "Aka-chan to Boku" is a must-watch for anyone seeking a heartwarming anime experience that will leave you with a smile on your face and a warm feeling in your heart.

This anime has a decent style, good dialog, and of course, very emotional. This was suitable with the song by Pitta Loppies from the girl group Moluccas, "Pearls of Love".
