It always catches me off guard when other (outside) characters mention how surprising it is to see Hiromu being affectionate and doting toward Masaki/kids. Because his loving side is all I’m used to seeing in the manga lol. I find the way Hiromu’s personality is revealed in the manga to be really interesting and refreshing. Usually with characters like him in other manga, we’re introduced to them as being cold/serious/strict first (and so that’s the primary personality we associate them with), and then watch them slowly melt and become sweet over the course of the story as get together with their lover. But in this story, since we’re introduced to Hiro as a sweet, goofy, and loving husband/father first, it’s hard to remember that he’s usually a very stoic and serious person to people outside of his family.
