Aww, the kids in this show are just adorable. This girl gave me the ghostly vibes though:



I also love how they take the episode outside the working environment and into the outdoors where it's more refreshing.

Not only the mains workplace has some unique individuals but his class as well.

So if she's not a ghost, than what the hell are those green things surrounding her? Seems odd to me, but whatever.

Standard episode really. A bit more insight into life of the employees outside of school, which I like.

Damn, why is this episode so badly paced? It feels like I'm watching 3-4 episodes crammed into one single episode. Also, Kouno and Adachi are literally the worst working members of the cast. No character interactions at all between them and the others and no characterization as well. Hoping that they could slow down a little bit next week.

i'd be surprised if it wasn't ozawa ari - that voice is way too distinct to her style.

speaking of which, i didn't realize but the voice cast is composed of mostly high profile VAs. didn't expect nana mizuki nor hikasa yoko to be there - shows the range in their voices. i mean, previous working!! also had a high profile cast (Durarara in the kitchen essentially) but i haven't seen or remember any recent anime that went to solely go for a mainstream main cast

Shipping Current Standings :

Adachi X Muranushi : Adachi despite running away from Muranushi's Kawaii-ness, you came back right away knowing you will regret it if anything happened to her, even taking her hand and leading her along with you during the test of courage for you two. +1

Higashida X Miyakoshi : You put your shirt over Miyakoshi's since she was sneezing from a signs of a cold and she later wore it during you guys test of courage. Taking care of the raccoon together, basically your love child <3. +2

Yuuta X Shiho : Yuuta don't friendzone Shiho who Obivously still has feelings for you even after you rejected her proposal of a marriage during your childhood. -1

I just realized it after watching this episode. Can't believe I didn't notice it sooner. If everyone else is weird, and only Higashida is the normal one...than that would mean that he is the "weird" one, because everyone else that was weird would be the new norm. So Miyakoshi's not wrong in her statement.

Will-o'-the-wisp, or will-o-wisp (like the pokemon move), is a ball of fire said to be the souls of the dead. Ghosts, in other words. Rather than a ghost herself, looks like Yanagiba is always cold because ghosts (her grandparents?) lingering around her. Ghosts are said to lower the temperature of those they possess, or merely by being near them (a belief derived from the chills a person gets when they feel fear of the unknown, assuming a ghost in around). But than that wouldn't explain her grandfather being a regular coming to the restaurant alone if he was indeed always around her, unless he occasionally goes off on his own.

Great episode. I am loving this show & all the characters so far.
LOL Daisuke- "Are you actually alive" Not the best thing to say to a customer.
Daisuke & Hana are so funny together.
Like the introduction of Yanagiba & Nagata.

Poor Saiki- "WHAT" "HELP!"
Gotta love Muranushi's smile. Can't get enough of it.
Poor Shindou Friendzoned Shiho again.
Everyone is so cute when they were kids.

A pet Raccoon. Well this is going to be fun.

I love these new characters already. They're so cute!
I hope Rui Nagata succeeds in confessing to Higashida and become a couple one day (I wonder if they are in the manga) ... even though I like Miyakoshi with him ... but I am a big sucker for girls who have an obvious crush to a guy in anime/manga.

Muranushi's smile again, haha. Can't wait till Adachi honestly reveals his feelings to it .

... Poor Yuuta.

Man, this was ridiculous. I mean, it's like this whole setting is just crazy. "Previous" Working didn't have so ludicrous actions. It's not a bad thing here tho. We basically got "Working w/o limits" or smth. And I like it.

Btw, that young blondie has Stella's voice (probably the best waifu in anime history).

Funny shit.............they are just repeating the Nozaki-kun couple all over again '-'

Apparent "ghost girl" is a fun twist here, and going on a test of courage with a supposed bear is quite random even for this series standards, but I guess it is part of the charm.

I honestly am starting to feel that Yuuta and Shiho are the best couple as of now. Higashida and Miyakoshi have chemistry but the former couple has just that touch that makes it work.

In the manga, they are described as a manifestation of her "shut-in aura". Which apparently is the same as ghostly vibes, lol.

Pretty fun episode.

Daisuke's pretty straight forward with his customers. xD
The new girl did give off ghostly vibes though and it wasn't helping that Muranushi was the one who told Daisuke about it.

The test of courage though, The fear the guys experienced was very different. XD
That "Help" was epic.

The Rui misunderstanding was funny.

Hmm someone wearing a scarf in summer does seem strange

But man the explanation that the mc gave was so unexpected lol

Well the explanation that the girl gave pretty much sums up all the staff
there

Lol the question that the mc asked lol
and Hana conveniently appearing and derailing it with a well placed punch

Hmm so the mc believes that you won't go to heaven if you're not had a
positive life eh. Thats a interesting belief.

My that girl really has a poor constitution
plus she's never been to school lol
i kinda feel sorry for her

Lol a gathering deep in a forest in the dead of night
Trial of courage anyone lol
And they were all kidnapped by MIB lol

Lol interesting parings for the test of courage though
And shiro just bribed her way in lol

Lol So Sayuri can see ghosts eh
no wonder Adachi is so afraid of her
But at least he admitted he liked her and didn't leave her behind

Well the mc and Hana alone have to do the test lol

I think that Hana and the mc will make a good couple lol


Shiro and Shin were cute together but her expression when she
said those words of when they were little was scary lol
Thats her way of punishing him lol
My she's scary with her grudges and money lol
Lol Shindou calling Shiro a demon when she's standing right there


So the bear was a raccoon eh
Man Kisaki is smart to know the various designations for it
but that raccoon was so cute

Overall a funny episode that also introduced some backstory
to Hana while also reinforcing her bond with the mc.

And Nagata completely getting the wrong idea
about ghost girl and Hana and the raccoon lol

I suppose so, but the difference is that Yanagiba will remain as a customer and thus will not inconvenience the restaurant as much as Yamada (probably).

Welp, it seems that this Waganaria's "Yamada" has appeared at last... and boy is she a handful. Seems the restaurant's got a new free loader now, eh?

Though the circumstances for it's appearance was kinda silly, the raccoon was kinda cute too.

Just hope that we get more development for Ojou-sama and her the oblivious debt ridden object of her affections/ire/hate/frustrations. Those two really work well together.

Pleasant enough even this episode that shines not so much for the comedy, and for having felt his wrist with regard to the bonds that are being created right now between the various characters. The character more sympathetic, was Yanagiba, catchy and likeable the OST.

3 episodes in, and I still find this series to be very mediocre, and I'm not even comparing it to the previous Working series.
The joke is bland and not as funny, can be repetitive and predictable at times too.
Some scenes were pretty awkward and out of nowhere, especially their relationship development. Adachi and Sayuri's relationship can't be more awkward than that, right?Kill me
Screw all of these nobodies, Miyakoshi is the only reason to watch this show now

I still can't believe Kouno is one of the main cast, GOD I hate him so damn much. I hope he IS not intended to be a mood maker of the group, because he sure have failed horribly, design-wise and personality-wise.
Saiki too, why is he there again?

All the stuff in the forest was beyond stupid, but at least the new characters seem promising. Yanagiba feels kinda like a Aoi alternate, which is a hell of a lot better than whatever Kouno is supposed to be. And the love triangle potential with Nagata is intriguing.

I still wouldn't care if half the cast fell off a cliff in episode four, though.
