| You can tell Alina truly loves her receptionist job. That and to avoid overtime LOL This also seems like the first time she feels strange towards Jade. Could it be..? I mean, they have been close for awhile now since meeting each other. Jade sure is popular with other girls though. |
 |
| Alina being scared of workaholics while she herself is one... And she still had some much aggression killing those spiders you would expect her to put all her frustrations in fighting monsters but she still has more of them. She also seems to be having some feelings for Jade judging by her reactions. |
| The score on this is criminally low man! Workaholics are scary 😂 what a hilarious episode and a nice chill one to ease into the weekend with after the action packed last couple. Guild master doing all that talk about how grateful he is for Alina help and he still ain’t hiring new receptionists man gtfo lmao. Don’t nobody care about “thanks” if you don’t show it! Lmao at all the receptionists fangirling over Jade and Alina’s like “who gaf, this is a daily event for me” you can see she’s getting jealous and a little disappointed he didn’t call out to her in that scene. She can try to fool herself, can’t fool me tho. I think if Laila finds out Alina is executioner she might have a heart attack 😂 the love she has for executioner is insane. Who would’ve thought there’s a fanclub! I guess overtime is just part of the culture of receptionists because even at receptionist school the professor is pushing that lmao. Shit broke Alina so much she was actually happy to see Jade for a chance. Hilarious end to the episode |

| Alina should really get a new title as the guild's troubleshooter lol. In the first place OT should not be neccessary. If there's more work than staff members then hire more staff. For a guildmaster doesn't feel like he does much with regards to organising budgets and staff levels does he. Jade being ultra popular with girls lol. Thats quite the training hall they were allocated too. That lecture sure shattered Alina's image of her idol for sure. |

| It's seems like that Alina is starting to like Jade now. I think it's hilarious and cute how obsessed Laila is with the Executioner. |
Everyone does, Alina. Everyone does: |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| I enjoyed the second half of this episode! If only the animation was anywhere close to the voice acting... At some point I started watching every scene twice: once to read the subtitles and then again without looking at the screen, so that I could appreciate the amazing voice acting! Note I'm not only talking about Takahashi Rie. My praise goes to Koga Aoi and Serizawa Yū as well! Also Takahashi Rie is in my favorite people now, 'cause yes. |
| Just quit already. Next to all the dungeon crawling, dark god nonsense, and the Lululee murderer arc, Alina's overtime just seems unimportant. At the very least, it was funny when her idol turned out to be just another workaholic, and we also have the hook of Glasses Guy's heist being an inside job to keep things going. Meanwhile, Alina is riding the guildmaster's ass about not getting more receptionists... at the event where new receptionists are being trained. What? |

| An absolutely hilarious episode where almost every character has a funny scene/moment, probably my favorite so far :) Also some good slice of life vibes and an interesting hint that Alina might start (maybe?) to feel something for Jade. Overall, a welcome return to something light-hearted after the last couple couple of weeks. |
| this episode was weird tbh. don't like it. |

Every show has its joke and every joke grows stale. Alina hating overtime and other people reacting to it has unfortunately, grown stale before the completion of the first season. I'm surprised this show is rated higher that the one with Thunder Pike and Clover.
| @LucenProject Agree that overtime joke is not funny anymore. I'll finish this season and that's enough for me. As for ratings of this and 'A-Rank party' - they are both very flawed shows, for me they are both 6/10. This one at least had some promise at the beginning so rating probably hasn't dropped much yet. |
| Alina is finally getting a bit jealous... owo Even Jade himself. Then, Lululee!!! 🤤 |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| I've been wondering what happened to that "more receptionists" promise lol Also, hell nah bro, Lululee just had a 3 episode arc about being haunted by memories of his dead teammates, and now she is talking about ghosts and dead adventurers like if it was fun lmao |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| so, the protagonist wears by far the shortest skirt in the receptionists of the guild. |

| The concept is getting old. o_O |

| Alina didn't realize that she's on PTO. 3 days, 2 nights of PAID training???!!!??? with ZERO travel??? off site, not in the offices, meals AND room included!!! that is the kind of seminar cube-rats DREAM of! ;> she has also never heard the saying, "Never meet your heroes... you'll be utterly disappointed." ;> hah! :D ok. 100 hours of OT a month. if these guys are going off 'banker's hours' of 9-5pm/8h per day... 40h per week... 5 days a week... 2 days off per week... that's 12.5 eight-hour DAYS of OT a month. 12 days is 96h plus a half day at 4h. if you assume these guys have exactly 4 weeks every month of 7 days that's a 28-day month. 28 days x a 24h day... there are only 672h in their month. subtract the standard work schedule 40h week x 4 weeks =160h that leaves 572h to live a life. once again subtracting 8h of sleep everyday x 28d = 224h a month for sleep, leaving 572-224= 348h to live a life each month outside of sleeping and standard working scheduling. then the OT! 348-100=248h per month for a life. convert that back to 24h days? 10.3333 days a month. 10 DAYS & 8 HOURS! not spent sleeping or working a normal schedule, plus that 100h of OT a month. eff that, the lecturer is fugging bugnuts. |
just an ol school American otaku enjoyin the life. don't sass me kiddies, i've been otaku probably since before you were born. leave me in peace and i won't bother you either.  |
| "Workaholics are scary" ROTFL 😂🤣 |
 |
| She wrote the best-seller "If you Want to be a Receptionist, Then Eat Beans." Is that just a funny non-sequitur, or is there some additional nuance to that in Japan? |
| Alina in shambles. The ghost part with the 3 girls was amusing. Jade's image improvement campaign though lol. |
 |
| Alina is this guilds MVP. Both behind the desk and in the field! Too bad the Guild Master seems to have stalled in his promise to add more receptionists to the guild. It even turned out to be a double whammy of disappointment when Rosetta Rhuberry was revealed to be a workaholic and didn't have a solution for Alina's overtime problem. Overtime has the dark gods beat as this shows big bad. It's presence is insurmountable! |
 |
| Rip bugs 💀 could think of much worse than spiders, but they aren't tough for her to handle. Now her branch finally recognizes the work issue XD all for the birthday off. What a struggle. Suppose even receptionists have to have their training arc before they become peak employees. She can have hugs for being scared of overtime lady 🫂 |
  |
| Alina going through the new-employee training...or rather, the benefit for them bringing good feedback with the payoff being only time off for their birthday, it's no wonder that ALina joined Silver Sword on their quest, though Jade has a long way to go to let Alina see her as a human being, let alone someone noteworthy. But the guildmaster backing down from their agreement before to double the number of receptionists at Iffole Counter, looks like Alina will have to wait until the pivotal changes take effect. The new-employee training, with Jade having his own Image Improvement Campaign to stay away from Alina as far as possible, and a training hall that has both Lowe and Lululee taunting the receptionists, all Alina wants to look forward to is the birthday vacation. Yet, Laila insisting that there's more between Alina and Jade, yet stanning for the Executioner (which she does not know the truth yet) sure intrigues both Lululee and Alina to no end. Amidst the suspicions of a spy within the kingdom, Alina receiving lessons from the person she admires the most of Rosetta Rhubery...and the secret to avoid working overtime...is to work MORE overtime lols, that's the life of a workaholic. Alina is officially broken and not out of the overtime workaholic job anytime soon... |
 |
| Well, at least it was acknowledged that the guildmaster has not hired extra receptionists since Alina called him out on it because it had been in the back of my mind since that promise was made. On that note it looked like foreshadowing when the guildmaster implied they would need her help again as if he knows something, makes me wonder how much he knows about the mysterious figure that has been recruiting adventurers to resurrect dark gods... |
| boring episode, bring out the dark lords! |
 |
| Huh, just realized Alina is the only receptionist with a short skirt that fluffs outwards, all the other girl all have skirts that goes downwards. (even short skirts) Where Alina shows more of her thighs and "almost peek", while the other girls are all fully covered. LOL This make it looks like Alina is purposedly trying to lure in males to her counter. . Also... the Guildmaster "forgot" about his promise, LOL Dude's running away by changing the subject, since he didn't say he would actually go through with hiring when he left. He just goes "umm, hmmm... oh yea, BTW..." . BTW, those 3 dudes commenting on Alina isn't really wrong tho. Alina is smol and cute, makes you want to just pick her up and carry her around with you to keep her safe, LOL. Also, "Image Improvement Campaign"... more like "stop being a stalker campaign" (but it's already too late, stalker to lover already happened) (see guys, if you want a girl, stalk them, totally works) (just be sure you're also in a powerful position so you can bribe off the cops and FBI, like Jade being pretty much the 2nd in command of the entire Guild) (dude can get into any section of the guild including personal offices and library without needing permission, it's how he gets close to Alina with no one blocking him and why Alina can't escape his stalking) He stalks so much that Alina is now used to his stalking and finds it odd when she isn't being stalked. . Lol @ the ghost story time... Alina is not amused. ₍ 𓎟_𓎟 ₎ But... Alina's idea of a nice birthday is pretty much just eat food all day long huh... And that workaholic... RIP Alina's "hero", LOOOL |

| Yup, Guild Master Glen definitely forgot about the promise. Seems like our girl Alina isn’t truly satisfied if Jade isn’t around in her life. Lowe might be onto something though—we did see four people on throne-like seats with one of extra being empty. I suspect one of them is behind all this. The ending was too hilarious. Alina, who usually can’t stand seeing Jade, actually felt a little better after seeing him. It's serious, lol. |
