No story could convince me that a man that hasn’t contacted his child in 9 years would be a good parent.

FFS.. even if the father has a legitimate reason for the mc to just tell her that at the end is a real slap in the face.. sorry but this mc doesn't deserve her frankly.

im kinda curious at the phrasing where its “couldn't be a father” rather than “failed to be a father” Just makes me wonder if there is something preventing him from meeting her such as not knowing where she is, being prevented by the law such as divorce courts as i have seen cases where the father wanted to meet but couldn’t because the mother doesnt want the father in the picture and told lies to the child to make the father into a villain or perhaps its more simple and he wasnt grow up mentally enough to handle being a father at that point in time

maybe hes not the biological father

I know very little about the topic, but comments on other manga have said that the family courts in Japan operate differently than in Western nations, and that shared custody is not a thing. One parent gets complete custody, while the other is effectively cut out of the child's life, barring any financial responsibilities and the like. If the mother won custody and then wanted nothing to do with the father, it's completely reasonable that he was unable to see her.

I'm not versed in japanese courts, but japan, esp in the early 2000s was known to be where single parents would take their child and basically use japan's family court to prevent the other parent to see the child. There are several stories of "legalized parental abduction"

Yeah that's enough stupidity for me, dropped

 

[krater]

I mean honestly living with her father is one of the better option for her
edit: just read the next chapter the reason actually make sense
