Also known as: 親馬鹿, 親バカ, 親ばか
A character acting as an overly affectionate or clingy parental figure towards another, often in a way that engenders embarrassment for the latter. The characters involved do not necessarily have to be actually related.
A common example trope is a overly doting father fending off any and all potential suitors for fear of them snatching his daughter away.
