"The life of an adventurer isn't always a glamorous one. Belgrieve finds this out the hard way when a deadly encounter robs him of his leg and the ability to pursue his dreams not long after setting off for fame and fortune. But fate isn't finished with this retired adventurer! While gathering herbs in the wilderness, he discovers an abandoned baby girl and names her Angeline after deciding to raise her as his own. Angeline grows up to become a top-tier adventurer in her own right, yet after venturing out into the world and making a name for herself, fame, fortune, and power hold no allure for the accomplished S-rank adventurer: her heartfelt wish is for nothing more than to see her father again."

Not a great show, but it won me over pretty early by being fun and largely wholesome. That the father/daughter combo can exist and function just fine without each other and their relationship isn't in any way fetishized makes this go down much smoother. Yes, there is some hero worship that culminates in a bunch of 'oooh's and 'ahhh's, but it didn't bother me as much as I figured it would. Ange is a cute spoiled daughter figure and manages to bounce off of Belgrieve great even through letters alone, making the reunion in episode 3 more heartwarming. This show also understands that a meal is much better when complimented with side dishes so the flavor doesn't get old; the side cast are used well and compliment the world building. 'Competent' and 'comforting' are the greatest praise I can heap on this.
