It's really good for first eps. Allthough the level is not near Working!!
The character that i am interested here is Sayuri.
For the manager, still love the old one / gangster manager
Inami in Working!! has circumtances why she hit people but Hana hit it for fun so I prefer Inami and she is kind too.
For the MC family, the previous Working!! have more unique characters
Btw I need a chara like Soma-san here XD

So 4/5 for the start

True. I'm gonna call this Diet Working!!.

Sayuri is the only bright spot in the cast so far, and with an ensemble this large, that's not a good thing. The protagonist's family is absolutely cringe-worthy and ruins every scene they're in. Are they supposed to be funny!?

I kinda liked the chocolate bit, but it felt a little out there for a first episode where we haven't really established the characters yet. I'll give it time, but this already feels like a letdown.

Another season of Working would have been more appreciated.

It seems to be a pretty decent show, tho nothing special, but I am in for the laughs it has to offer. (o.o)

It was nice and funny too. I would even go as far as to say that most of the characters are very likeable and even though some of them are very similiar types in different role as previous Working I'm glad this anime keeps them still very funny but more civil.

This show has all means to be on par or even better than first Working!! Even though this is technically a prequel I enjoyed it tons.

I don't know, this whole episode felt kinda off. The characters don't feel real, they're even more of caricatures than their counterparts from the other Working.

I think I understand why the author ditched the characters from the webcomic and created new ones for the new manga.

I'll give it a good three-episode trial, and if it fails to grab my interest, into dropped it goes.

Inami-clone without the androphobia but still violent.

I like the characters a lot and my favorite so far has to be the Menma-esque girl named Muranushi Sayuri.

I'm already tired of the relationship between the rich bitch and her host boyfriend. They're obviously going to end up together. It's same old regurgitated plot of a rich girl being all salty because she was rejected and starts stalking the guy she likes.

Well that sure was different... Not really sure how I like the overall change of the characters but still having the setting and similar characteristics. But well I do wonder what this series will have to offer for the whole Working series.

In general the ED is still pretty gold like always!

Interesting episode :

Still have the feels from original Working from this series.

At the beginning, we see Souta as the mc passes by him, which is pretty cool that it's on the same day as Souta starts working too in the original Working.
At 4:23, was that Popura from original Working series?


i also thought it was Taneshima. it also showed girls inside the school that wore the same school uniform she had

The characters don't play off each other as well as they did in the original series, but that could be because this episode was mostly just showing everyone. Best jokes were the bloody message and the butcher shop sign~

So this is what the original Working!! looks like. Interesting.
The cast looks promising and silly enough to cause hilarious situations, just like the earlier Working!! anime. It's nice to see how visible the original spirit of the series (and even some character designs -also, dat Souta cameo-) is in this setting.

Aside from the first scene with Souta and Daisuke crossing paths, I wonder if there will be any other cameo later on.

So-so start overall. Some characters seem bearable while others look like the kind of people I will find annoying at some point. I can say right now that Daisuke's father is an absolute asshole tho.

Souta passing the baton to mc(Daisuke) here..
Well polished setting with few catchable instances and a better grip.

I like that ghost girl , but , from the ending theme (or opening) it seems the new inami is the main one

The guy that made working is probably a masochist

I watched Working!! first before finding out about this anime, so to me these characters are the copy of Popura, Inami, Takanashi, etc.. The first episode felt off and I didn't like it much. I hope that it will improve in the future, but seeing that it's only 1 season long, I don't think that it was a hit.

This was far worse than i thought it was gonna be, they just turned up the "i'm a dick" meter on a few char and it was not funny at all.
