Even a Dad Still Wants It...
Oshimeter
Synopsis
To cover his expenses, Asumi takes on a housekeeping gig — cooking, cleaning, standard stuff. His employer is Keiichi Naruse, a single father who's genuinely drowning between a demanding job and raising his young son Ichika alone. It's a pretty wholesome domestic setup at first. Then Asumi stumbles onto something personal while cleaning Naruse's room, and suddenly the dynamic between them gets a lot more complicated. That discovery shifts the whole mood of the show from "sweet domestic slice-of-life" to something considerably more charged, and the tension builds from there. This is an 8-episode ONA from 2019, and it sits squarely in Boys Love territory with explicit content — worth knowing going in. What makes it a little different from the usual BL setup is the single-father angle. Naruse isn't some brooding CEO or a college rival; he's just a tired, lonely guy trying to hold his life together, which gives the attraction between them a more grounded texture than you'd expect. If you've watched Junjou Romantica or Dakaretai Otoko and you're comfortable with explicit BL, this scratches a similar itch but with a domestic warmth underneath the heat. It also comes in standard and explicit versions, so there's some flexibility depending on what you're looking for. It's not trying to be a deep emotional journey, but it delivers on its premise with more character detail than the genre sometimes bothers with.
