8 best anime on Netflix in October 2021

The Way of the Househusband Part 2

Release Date: Oct. 7

The first installment of this series was already a hoot, so we can only imagine how hilarious part two is going to be as our favorite househusband is still very much retired from his criminal past and is still very much so in love with adorable dogs, cute bento boxes, and his hardworking yet precious wife.

The Way of the Househusband part 2 will adapt even more moments from the original manga series including iconic scenes featuring some of our favorite characters Ryouta and Masa as well as the making of our ex-yakuza Tatsu’s most delicious dish, a chicken sandwich dressed in a little lemon and honey.

If this dish sounds like something you would love to create, or if you just want to see more of this henchman-turned-softie dote on his wife, then be sure to tune into brand new episodes of The Way of the Househusband streaming only on Netflix.
