Aggressive Retsuko (ONA) 5th Season

The red panda accountant Retsuko and her hyena coworker, Haida, have finally started dating. Things seem to be looking up in Retsuko's life; however, Haida is now grappling with unemployment and an evolving gaming addiction. As Haida attempts to keep his struggles from his girlfriend, cracks begin to form in their relationship. Moreover, Haida is evicted from his apartment and seeks refuge in an internet cafe, where he meets his online friend, a skunk named Shikabane.

As the secrets Haida hides from Retsuko pile up, their romantic journey reaches a tumultuous climax while a major presidential election looms ahead. To make matters worse, one of the candidates takes a particular interest in Retsuko and her singing talent, complicating their already hectic lives.

This season is amazing... BUT AMAZING

This season since it was announced I was already hyped because it was the end

We finally have a good couple, a great plot and an evolution of characters that complement each other perfectly

I love Haida's plot (mainly because the depressive gamer waifu appears)As for Retsuko and her plot... Okay, the discourse of the old population in Japan is interesting but I feel like the season really revolves around haida

As for the rest, they bring characters from other seasons and give them a fairly important role in the plot.

I loved this last season and it was a pleasure to share my ... experience with you.

ESP: esta temporada... dios ESTA TEMPORADA!

Es una temporada que cuando la anunciaron yo me emocione (debido a que iba a ser la ultima temporada del anime) y vaya que no decepciono!

Tenemos porfin una pareja que esperabamos hace mucho tiempo, una trama que involucra la evolucion de ambos personajes en esa etapa de cambio llamada convivir con tu pareja y sentirse comodo con ella, me encanta Haida esta temporada ademas de que nos presentan a la Waifu Gamer Depresiva la cual me encanta (soy esa) en cuanto la trama de Retsuko esta bien pero siento que esta temporada se centra mas en Haida que en Retsuko, Retsuko tiene una trama bastante interesante y que tiene un final satisfactorio

En cuanto a lo demas traen personajes de temporadas anteriores que incluso incrementan mi interes al menos en la trama y aunque al final del dia sean personajes secundarios no se puede negar que aportan bastante a la trama INCLUSO LE DAN UN PAPEL IMPORTANTE A LOS FANS

Me encanto esta ultima temporada... Un placer seguir este anime desde sus inicios

After 5 years this series completed its run. The final season made its main girl a supporting character for most of the season, which was an interesting choice but provided a much-needed perspective and added another human layer to Restuko’s character. After 5 season her character growth isnt done and we never lose what we love about her. The show is still fun, relatable, and a good insight into Japanese work culture. We get to see Retsy finally get a boyfriend and be a supportive girlfriend something we've been longing for for years. Everyone level up and find their way which is amazing. Background ... characters serve their purpose and the comedy is still sharp, awkward, and anxious as always. This season gets a bit darker than previous seasons as it makes room to add new characters who amazingly enough actually get fleshed out. I don't know how I feel about this being the finale for the series but I'm completely satisfied with the season finale. Aggretsuko is a 4 out of 5 all around and this season is nothing if not consistent. This anime is by far a top 10 slice of life and is a must-see for any fan of the genre. P.s. She Rages hard too and I love how they still made this a core part of the series

Mixed Feelings

Well, I'm back after the disaster of season 4. I'm happy to say, it doesn't reach as low as that, but it's still strayed too far from the grandeur of season 1.

As mentioned in my previous reviews, I like this show as a grounded take on adult life and issues. Despite the convoluted way it's achieved, this season has a real strong take on unemployment, homelessness, and the meaning of life/working. I felt myself really thinking about these issues in a serious sense while watching.

The end is really out of the blue though, and brings the vibe way down. Character act in strange ways, and ... plot points(like attempted murder), are just rushed/brushed off without much thought. Despite the episodes being longer, and the last episode being a full 30mins things felt rushed.

I'm not sure if they ever plan for a season 6. This didn't feel satisfying as a full finale for the series. The first part relating to unemployment was compelling enough I probably still recommend a watch if that sounds interesting.
