"I have a bad feeling about this" - as every good jedi said before shit hit the floor

I have a feeling the dad will come back earlier than expected and he would lose his gourd seeing her 'friend' was a guy after all.
But I suppose he'd be impressed with his business etiquette later on.

Thanks for the translation Galaxy Degen. Maybe I haven't read enough of these kinds of manga but I like how 'smart' the characters are. The dad is perceptive enough to notice that the "person" helping his daughter is a little suspiciously astute for just a high schooler, while the sister realizes that if the bro is too dressed up he'll look suspicious. Makes them seem a little more like real people than 'stock' characters.

As much as the comments are talking. Koaru Hana and Horimiya and many other Slice of Life manga have spoiled me with daughter's father who genuinely like their daughters partner.

I know it's a trope of overprotective father's, but part of me hates that it drags on the series and not a one off thing. Even Uzaki-chan had fun with the trope and ended it on a good note.

I do hope MC wins him over really quickly.

MC did an actual interview with her father, at first the father only wanted to test his mettle for a bit. Still, MC actually did an entire pitch about his future plans, down to minute details with the data of companies that are the most suitable to work for (it has to be a white company with reasonable work hours and decent pay), which university to aim to work for said companies (what degree he needs, university's reputation, etc), he also prepared his score trend on his school test to prove he how he can achieve it. He also declares that he loves his daughter and is ready to support her for her whole life (basically proposing to her via her father).
The father is shocked by this since he only expected him to make some naive excuses, not an actual pitching proposal.
Near the end of the story her father offers him to work in his company, and finally at the end he works as his successor even when the MC only wants a simple managerial position lmao

I can't wait to see the father's reactions to finding that her friend, is a guy! I hope he doesn't get overly animated like the last dude.

The mother seems great, I could imagine if she was voiced by Inoue Kikuko and doing the "mother knows something father doesn't" chuckle.

Lastly, the sister is such a great wingman. They need more of her.
Father ->girl friend ✅
Mother ->boy friend ✅
Haruka ->friend ✅

There's no he in japanese from what i've been told (or fully gendered pronouns and the likes), so that would be on the translators for deciding on it. It's language quirks that people tend to forget
Almost. There is "kare" for "he" and "kanojo" for "she", which do get used occasionally.

The problem is that the Japanese rarely use subjects, if at all. Therefore, most sentences don't have "he" or "she", or even "I" or "you".

For example, "sakana wo tabemasu" translates literally to "fish [object] eat". The fish here being the object (the thing being eaten), while the subject (the one eating the fish) is missing. So the sentence could either be translated as "I eat fish", or "he/she eats fish" or "we eat fish", etc. People usually can guess who the subject is based on the context. So if the context is about cats, you can easily guess that the sentence should be "cats eat fish" or "they eat fish".

It's why MTL often come up with translations such as "Cats are fascinating creatures. You eat fish."
