Dad, the Beard Gorilla, and I

After losing her mother to a tragic accident, 6-year old tomboy, Michiru, finds a suspicious person moving into her precious home: her dad's giant younger brother Kouji, the 'Beard Gorilla'. While awkward at first, it doesn't take long for the two to develop a familiar bond that looks more like that of a brother and a sister, than that of niece & uncle.
