It really is nice that Yuriko and Hikari got their happy ending, but I still have questions.

. Is Hikari still sick, or did her health crossover when they got transported back?

. If she is still sick, doesn't that mean Yuriko still has to take care of her?

. Did they get sent back before or after Hikari's health got worse and the dad took it out on Yuriko; did that still happen, or was that overwritten?

. What about their dad, do they still have to deal with him?

The conclusion felt a bit...flawed to me. It didn't really make sense. They got isekai'd at least a somewhat substantial amount of time apart, yet are back together at the same time. The younger sister is still sick (sure, isekai temp cured her or whatever, but now that's irrelevant), and they still have a shitty father that's going to parentify the elder sister to death. The younger is likely too weak to push back against their father or do anything to stop that, and the father has no reason to listen to either of them.

Really, this was an incredibly cruel ending, not a happy one. They both had a taste of freedom and youth, and had reconciled their fractured relationship, and Sensei just sent them back to their own personal Hell, likely never to experience that freedom and happiness again. Sure, the resentment is cleared for now, but the source of it remains. More than likely, if nothing changes, they'll be right back to square one or worse.

I get the feeling the viewer isn't supposed to think about it too hard and just accept that everything is magically better somehow, but without a scene live showing the father in tears and remorseful or something, this just feels heartless of Sensei to do.

I agree with you. Even more so than the werewolf guy, these two would be better off in the other world.

I think the writer of this anime is very good at making the bones of good storytelling, but decidedly less good at the detail work. There was the same issue in the tree village, where it was basically a complete 180 at the end with no foreshadowing.

Good potential in their career, but it holds this particular work back from being as good as it could be.

No we can assume happy ending for the girls in Japan. I don't need it filled out.

And the daughter tandem might find a confronted father actually upset with self that he had not made clear how much he loved older daughter and that the way he had been trained one did not thank others for doing the right thing.

To assume a happy ending despite all plot reasons for these to be one isn't particularly satisfying writing.

Why would he be? From his perspective, nothing happened that would disturb the status quo.
