There's a lot of anime starring families that make you think it's intentional to get people to breed more.
I ain't complaining as they still wind up good, plus a lot of them are VERY positive male role model of a father figure taking care of a younger child, it counters the western version of dad's being deadbeat or missing in media.
I know right? Its a nice antidote to all 'bad & dumb dad' characters on American TV.
There's a lot of Korean manwha about fathers 'returning to the past' to correct their previous neglect to their child while Japan just seems more focused in the here and now and having a positive role model. Newest one of these I'd put My Daughter left the nest and returned an S-Rank Adventurer since throughout it's him being a positive male role model people flock to.
My Daughter Left the Nest is so fun. I bit repetitive, but still very fun. I like the repeat gag that the dad doesn't seem to know his own fighting strength, and no one else did either, until his daughter goes around giving him nicknames and raising his reputation, seemingly continent-wide.
At first it seems she's just got daughter-goggles on, but the dad is actually really strong. Belgrieve the Red Ogre...stronk!
Spoiler for those that want to watch:
It's part of his personality of being very cautious, it's why he ONLY lost a leg against a literal demon king and the rest of his party got out completely safe.
Though this shines though the series of just how positive a male role model he is in that he reforms 3 'enemies' and helps an old friend that lost their way in the end.
Possible, but it's equally as likely that it's another case of "oh, that thing is popular. We should get our own thing so it can be popular, too!" that's basically expected of media.
