‘The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting’ sounds like the Japanese underworld has gone out of business and resorted to other jobs. However, that’s not the case here at all.
Although the series came out in July, it didn’t have English-dubbed episodes until now. Dub-watcher fans who were desperately waiting to watch the series will now finally be able to enjoy the anime, all thanks to Crunchyroll.
English-dubbed episodes for ‘The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting’ came out today, and you can stream the whole series on Crunchyroll.
Crunchyroll has also revealed the dub cast, and they’re as follows:

A star-studded cast is what Crunchyroll always gets us, no matter how small or underrated the anime is, and it has delivered it here too. Since good voice actors guarantee an excellent anime, I can’t wait to witness this one.
Let me run you through the plot for those who will be watching the series for the first time.
The protagonist, Toru Kirishima, is feared for his brutality and ruthless behavior as the Sakuragi Yakuza’s lieutenant. He is the leader’s right-hand man and gets the job done, but not without violence.
Toru is assigned as a bodyguard and babysitter to Sakuragi’s daughter, Yaeka after he messes up a vital deal due to his bad temper. Sakuragi’s leader hopes the two will bond and Toru will finally understand the meaning of being responsible for another life.
Initially, Toru and Yaeka get into many disagreements due to their differing personalities, lives, and age differences. However, the pair soon warms up to each other, with Yaeka teaching Toru how precious life is while the latter becomes super protective of her.
If you haven’t renewed your Crunchyroll subscriptions, then now is the time.
This fall season is the perfect time to brew a warm beverage and enjoy such light-hearted shows.
About The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting
The Yakuza’s Guide to Babysitting is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tsukiya. It began publishing on the Comic Ride pixiv website back in June 2018.
The story follows Kirishima, the right-hand man of a yakuza crime family specializing in beating people up. One day after Kirishima beats another person half to death, the boss of the Yakuza tells him that he needs to learn some responsibility instead of going crazy all the time.
The yakuza boss decides that Kirishima must now babysit his daughter, and if he doesn’t do his job correctly, Kirishima will be killed.
This is how a man with a once gruesome life is stuck with things like taking a little girl to school and tying her hair.
