The official website of the Youjo Shachou (Cute Executive Officer) original net anime announced a sequel on Sunday, revealing main staff, cast, theme song artists, and a key visual (pictured). The anime is scheduled for a Spring 2023 release.

Cast
Yoshine Fudou: Ikumi Hasegawa (Koi wa Sekai Seifuku no Ato de)
Okano RAU: Yui Ogura (Yama no Susume)
Mugaku Hamaoka: Akio Ootsuka (Mob Psycho 100)

Idol singer Arisa Sonohara is performing the opening theme "Narase! Mujina Symphony." Najimu Mujina, voiced by Rina Hidaka, and Neko Hacker will be performing the ending theme "O-Hi-Me-Sa-Ma!."

Kazuya Iwata (Koi wa Sekai Seifuku no Ato de) returns to helm the new season at Project No.9. Other returning staff includes Satoshi Sugisawa (Youjo Shachou) and Susumu Watanabe (Watashi, Nouryoku wa Heikinchi de tte Itta yo ne!) as the series composition and character designer, respectively. Comedian and musician Soshina is replacing H Zett M as the music composer of season 2.

The anime adapts Odeko Fujii's workplace comedy web manga which began on their official Twitter account in January 2018 before serializing it on the ComicWalker website. Kadokawa shipped the third volume on January 2021.

Synopsis
The president of Mujina Company, Najimu Mujina, isn't an adult, nor does she possess a genius intellect; she's a very ordinary 5-year-old girl. Followed by her indulgent and talented secretary, an office clerk of unknown nationality, and an employee who plays the straight man, the president charges into the world every day.

Nice! I liked the first one, as I found it quite enjoyable and amusing.
However, given how that one was a short episode thing that had all its episodes released as a single 27-30 min. video, I'd expect this to be the same as well - I'd certainly be positively suprised if it could be something I could follow weekly (either normal-length or - more likely - short episodes), but I don't think it's very likely to happen (though who knows...).

Seriously? Did they deliberately release it as one OVA? This explains why it has always been marketed as one episode on the internet.

Yeah, I remember not only watching it that way but also seeing it released that way on some official website as well (as a youtube embed or something). Can't find a concrete archival capture for the latter (at least not on the primary official website - maybe I recall some other distributor's site?), but I did find the announcement of how it would be distributed here and its translation (via Deepl, 'cause Google Translate sucks for less spoken languages like Japanese and my mother tongue Greek) is as follows:


The distribution sites have been decided!
 
From 1 January 2021, the complete version, including OP and ED, will be available on the following distribution companies
All the episodes will be distributed at once!
[and follows a list of japanese distributors]


It seems though like they did release the episodes separately later, as evidenced by an archival capture of mid-April 2021, but at any rate, as of New Year 2021, which was when I watched it according to what I marked on my list here, it had been released as a single video only.

Thank you! I found the anime on some sources and thought that only the first episode or something like that was available.
