About Kakushigoto
The manga can be summarized as a daily soap comedy based on the relationship between a father and his daughter.
The father is a manga artist who draws mature content and therefore tries to hide his work from his daughter because the truth might make her hate him. The official series synopsis reads:
“Kakushi Goto is a manga author who has been drawing a little vulgar series in a weekly magazine. The most important thing for him is his only daughter, Hime, but he does not want her to learn that he is a manga artist. Because if she finds out about his work, she might hate him. With help from his assistants and editor, he tries to pass his days without revealing his secret to her.”
