What a cute kid:


Cute episode. I'm glad to see this series return in full with all the main characters. Inami is still timid as ever while Satou is a badass in the kitchen. What a boss.

Beginning with Yamada breaking the plate, and the girl who is afraid of guys are trying her best. That girl who got lost before came again. HiroC's character getting involved in OnoD's character's love. So that girl with the sword talks about the girl she admires in front of others while she talks to her about OnoD's character. Loli girl getting depressed when he cares for that little girl and feeling left behind. lol @ that girl who is afraid of guys reaction after they made up.

Yamada brother searching again. The lady... is she the "Oto-san"'s wife?? Why they had to cover the room?? lol~. Both Yamada meets her. Yamada sister wanting that lady to marry Oto-san without knowing the truth.

How refreshing. The pacing allowed for recall of the cast, because it's been quite a while since I've seen Working!!. I think I recall enjoying Yamada the most, with Popura a close second.

Also... I was completely stunned when the wife left the room.

Either way, this season is looking great!

So glad to see it back! Really nice episode but I WISH Otoo-san had met his wife (though I guess the fact they don't is the running joke). Inami has made progress with her phobia, it turns out Popura loves her relationship with Kakanashi, everyone else is at their best, same as ever. Nice OP, cute as ever and very similar to the other 2.

I've never been the biggest fan of Working! (no pun intended) but there is still quite a bit that I like here.

Hoping for more Satou and Todoroki interactions. ;~;
Now that i've remembered I actually did pick up the manga a long time ago just to see more of their interactions but I just kind of stopped reading, i'm assuming that this will adapt the entirety of what's left?

Had forgotten that Souma is kind of a dick ahaha.
Holy shit! My brain just exploded because we basically have two Izaya and Shizuo combinations this season.

I can't recall what the actual animation was like previously but the visuals seem a lot cleaner than before.
Unless I went completely delusional during these last 4 years and now i'm just imagining things.

Happy to see the entire crew is back! Personally my favourite is Inami-chan and Yamada (musume). Great to see Inami-chan has improved with her phobia and splendid to see Yamada (musume) remains her original(!) self! Next episode will be straight to Takanashi household. Imouto Nazuna best Imouto.

If you followed CR's 720p, they had lower quality videos back then. And the broadcasters had lower transport stream as well (in case you saw fansubs). If you see the BD versions released later, they are similar to S3. It looks cleaner because of better video quality we have nowadays, I think.

Great start and 1st episode. Classic Working, just like I remembered it.

And once again, Working’s openings never disappoint; pretty catchy, well-put together, and fun to watch.

It's a Locked Room Mystery!!
Seriously, just because this series isn't afraid to do that little PROGRESS thing, a huge part of the reason why I love it so much, I actually half expected the two to get reunited and the wife to become a more frequent - and hilarious - character, but I guess she's too... um... Okay, how did she escape?!

Anyway, Working is back and it's amazing right off the bat.

Remember, Satou = food.

EDIT: I guess the only complaint I have is... Well, the ending, which I assume will be the opening, is most definitely the weakest so far. It didn't make me immediately sing along and that's the first for a Working opening song. Still, it's close tone-wise and the visuals match the previous ones perfectly (that one Yamada in the stream of Popuras...) and you can't always get perfection, so I'll let that slide.

What a fantastic way to start a series. Even if as a standalone episode it was maybe a bit too chaotic and wanted to show too much action at once, after such a long hiatus it was the perfect way to reintroduce the staff and show how they're coping. I'm especially happy that the characters are as refreshing and consistent as always. Love the fact that Inami is shown to be slightly better with her phobia, I have to admit she's my favorite character and I like how she slowly but surely shows progress throughout the show, like all the other characters.

Damn I really WAS hoping for Otoo to be reunited with his wife... I forgot how peculiarly illogical (yet funny) this anime can be. Welp, hope they find each other by the end of the season.

Souta and Todoroki action from the beginning, great. Now all I'm waiting for is a nice development of Inami's and Takanashi's relationship.

OP not as catchy as the previous ones, but I still think it'll grow on me. I like how it mimics the first opening in character presentation.

All in all, great start. I had high hopes for this season, but seeing as the character writing is as good as ever (and I guess the main appeal of this anime is definitely the characters), it's all gonna be fine :)

OMG its Back!!! it started slow and then Souma appeared!! Lol you gotta admit if your a fan of this show you gotta agree Souma sets things in motion. Totally treated Otou-san's wife like a wild animal. Had me laughing in smiles. Popora's head pat moment went wrong, again! xD
I was totally set that there was no way she would get away as well i mean she was still in there even when Takanashi boarded the windows. I ended up with the same face they made. If you noticed they Souma and Todoroki quickly went to Saito about it but they didn't add that dialog to it. There's so much i noticed but as you can tell i don't know where to start.
So excited for this season had me waiting so long :[ xD <3 <3 <3

So glad this show got a 3rd season. Loved this episode.
Awesome to see so many familiar faces again.
Poor Popura for being jealous over the little girl.
Souma loves stirring things up as usual.
Looking forward to seeing more episodes.

Other than that, I'm so happy to watch this anime again! It's been such a long time since I've last seen this series. <3 I was waiting for the OP song too. xD It had nice visuals as usual but the song doesn't feel as catchy as the OP from previous seasons.

Anyways, I'm gonna enjoy this. x)

Anyone notice how the signs in the OP corresponds to each of the cast members' personal quirks?

No water flea - Takanashi (self-proclaimed minicon)
No children - Taneshima (complex over being tiny)
No fists - Inami (violent androphobia)
No katana - Todoroki (always carries a katana)
No parfait - Shirafuji (eats a lot, especially parfaits)
No camera - Souma (blackmailer with photographs)
No broken dishes - "Yamada" (always breaking dishes)
No smoking - Satou (only regular cast member that smokes)

So close Otoo-san!! How the heck his wife escaped?? lol...

They did a good job re-introducing everyone and their quirks. Nice to see Takanashi getting jealous too at the end XD

I don't doubt this is going to be my AOTS already.
