Having lost his wife, math teacher Kouhei Inuzuka is doing his best to raise his young daughter Tsumugi as a single father.

Where it came from
Sweetness & Lightning, known in Japan as Amaama to Inazuma, originated as a manga series by Gido Amagakure before being adapted into a 2016 television anime by TMS Entertainment. The story follows a widowed high school teacher attempting to learn how to cook for his young daughter, Tsumugi, with the assistance of one of his students. The series emerged during a period of popularity for heartwarming, slice-of-life narratives that emphasized domesticity and the emotional bond between parent and child.
TMS Entertainment produced the series with a focus on capturing the warmth and sincerity of the original manga. The animation style was designed to highlight the appeal of the food preparation process and the gentle, day-to-day interactions of the characters. Upon its release, the series was well-received by audiences for its realistic portrayal of grief and the patience required in parenting, distinguishing itself within the genre by grounding its emotional stakes in the simple act of sharing home-cooked meals.
