Kono Chiisana Te (2023)
Kazuma, an illustrator who eloped to Tokyo with his wife, is awakened to reality after his wife has an unfortunate accident, and his daughter is taken by a children's welfare center. Not being involved in her upbringing much so far, he's forced to think about what it means to be a father.
It's nice to finish this after months since I announced it. I was planning on finishing this one next anyway, and somehow Kouhei's new BL was announced while I was working on it, so now people can get a double dose of him <3
Subbed trailer:
Note #1: I've left a few lines empty since I can't hear them or can't figure them out as I'm earsubbing yet again. The manga wasn't very helpful, either. If you spot any errors, or can fill any missing lines with 100% accuracy, feel free to contact me. Thank you!
Note #2: The official title of this movie is "Hold your hand", but I gave it the title "These tiny hands" since that's the literal title and actually references moments from the movie.
