I've missed this show and the eccentric characters that goes with it!

The first episode was hilarious! Popura got jelly of the child.. Haha. How did that wife escape? she must be a ninja! LOL! Takanashi got jealous of Yamada and Inami's bond.

Kinda missed it, even though it's just for killing time. I only hope things between Inami and Takanashi will develop a little this season.

I have to say, this year anime season is probably the best seasons we got in a while.
Lots of old anime coming back with more episodes.

I believe season 3 of working will cover the ending.
I read it somewhere that it will finish with manga.

Pretty consistent with the previous seasons but not sure if that is a good thing lol
Somewhat entertaining i guess

That’s a good thing.
I enjoy this type of comedy/slice of life, so I’m glad they’re keeping it consistent.

Those that were looking for more Working, I’m sure were expecting for more of the same........... changing that would’ve pretty much defeat the series purpose and appeal, disappointing most of its fans.

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)

Yes, I did. I thought that was pretty fun and cool thing to put in the opening.

I also like how they add/hide a different mini Popura among all the other mini Popuras during the “mini Popura section” in each of their openings. Hard to notice, but it’s there.

Yes, it should cover the rest of the manga.

While I'm happy to see it back, this episode didn't sit with me nearly as well as any of the episodes from the previous seasons. Maybe it was because it's been a long time since I watched it, but this episode genuinely seemed weaker. Also, is it just me or is Inami's voice different?

I started rewatching from the first season, so I was really excited for the new season. However, I found this episode significantly less entertaining than the old ones. That's probably due to my dislike of Aoi. I hope she and related characters appear less in later parts of this season. This still has potential.

Since they didn't seal off the floor, perhaps otoo-san's wife escaped through a basement or something...? xD

And I'm very glad to see that they're adapting the rest of the manga, because they means we'll definitely see some real relationship developments!

[also, Yamada is still the best character, I love her~]

I'm hoping there's going to be some development this time around. REAL development, not baby steps.
The reintroduction of the cast was alright. Inami helping Kirio to find his sister was definitely a satisfying surprise.

AOTS is here. Even though it was jumping around a lot to revisit everyone's characters and ventures, it was still pretty much firing on all cylinders. I especially loved the focus on Takanashi's obsession lol.

Only issues were the animation at times felt jerky(maybe that was just me) and the OP isn't nearly as memorable as Someone Else and Coolish Walk. But, small price to pay for a third season of something so damn entertaining.

The first 10 minutes were just for re-establishing all the characters, I wish they just jumped right into the fun, but it was great once it started moving along. Otou's wife is Houdini, I actually believed for a second they would be reunited lol.

Oh I hope we can get some progress with our two couples....particularly Satou and Todoroki. I guess it's a good sign that Todoroki is actually talking about Satou to Shirafuji...but that's just the unrepentant shipper in me talking.

Also, in the opening, there is a Yamada disguising herself as Popura in the part with the chibi Popuras, haha.

Overall, a great episode. I'm really glad they're finally back with this series! I missed everyone and it's nice seeing them back! Yamada is being priceless like always too. It's a bit sad that this is the final season, but at least they'll give a proper ending (I hope so).

I just spent 3 days rewatching the entire first two seasons. So glad I'm fully reintegrated :P

Am glad to see that they'll give this show the proper ending it deserves. Looking forward to all the antics that they perform in between that. And is it just me, or is Yamada's brother deliberately trying to NTR Takanashi (not that I mind too much, as much as I like Inami's character development, I don't see how Takanashi will ever accept her as more than a co-worker with male issues)?

And how the heck did Otoo-san's wife Houdini her way out of that room!?!?! Imposhibiruuuuu!!!

After paying more attention, the Yamadas have more similarity than I thoght, i.e:
Aoi: "Yamada wants to receive that kind of affection too."
Yamada-kun: "So give me some credit for remembering!"

Also, some people already have some guesses about Otoo's wife special ability like being a ninja, houdini, etc.. but I have suspect her as a totally different kind. After being separated with her husband and roaming around many weeks (or months without food?) in unusual place like manhole, forest, or escape at will in sealed space, perhaps she's already not one in this world anymore !
*nah... it can't be*
