Shirosaki and Momose make such an adorable pair.

Being at an amusement park for work, or rather, it being your work for the day, sounds like a dream come true. Shirasaki's deadpan reactions on every ride, showing barely any reaction, had me laughing quite a bit. Watching the train riders react to the story almost brought tears to my eyes. Such a genuine and touching scene, and it's only in the second episode!

I really hope he doesn't have to constantly deal with reminders of his old job. It seems like Zom 100 already demanded a lot of patience for situations like that.

@phantomfandom

Probably no one will dare to try.
I can see this story ending with a marriage and we are only at episode 2 xD (JK)

I mean, genuine and pure relationships like these are so good to see,
but there are too many hints what the author really wants to do with these two.
However, with not stepping across the line, Ichikawa sensei really made a story which heals the heart.

I wasn't sure if the baiting in episode 1 could be topped but here we are
If this series doesn't resolve with ANY BL then it'll have to be noted as a tragedy anime

What a lovely anime. I laughed so hard when the boss set the picture of Momose as his desktop background,haha. And yes,we've got the whole baiting thing as well. If this were a BL it would be a good one,to be honest. It actually gives me Sasaki to Miyano vibes sometimes. It's only the second episode and we're already seeing characters' deep emotions and complex feelings towards each other. I mean,that story about the planetarium and how he saved him from the darkness... Anyway, let's just enjoy how wholesome everything is.

"Nice wallpaper"

"He's cute"

" We have a lost child here, Shirosaki Yuusuke"


This episode felt like a Shirosaki best of compiliation lmao. Good for Momose that he now got the best boss possible. Win-win.

i had a feeling that the one behind the ad he saw that inspired him to move on was his boss.

and shirasaki was really cute when they were checking out the haunted house. he was acting all brave, but really he was scared sh!tless even before going on. i guess he finally let his guard down when momose offered him his sleeve or arm for support lol

They are super adorable and I love how they show the other train passengers listening and crying over Momose's story because samee, it was rather comedic as well. Nicely paced, balanced comedic and heartwarming moment, this is the ultimate healing anime for me this season.

Such a good episode.
Though I am a bit sad that everyone wants this to be officially BL... such opinion is doing a disservice to the characters because it implies that you are kind to someone just because you are attracted to them. TT

Really loved how the amusement park bit was just the two of them having fun while gathering info for their job lol, definitely one of those times where you’d appreciate being in that line of work. Had lots more goofiness occurring too, I especially loved the bit where Shirosaki said Momose was cute when the kid was talking about the stuffed animal they won lol, I’m not one of those folks wanting this to be romantic but that was very funny, and then immediately followed by Shirosaki telling the lost child service his own name was great too lol.

We also got a haunted house bit which was fitting for spooky month, Shirosaki couldn’t handle much lol. And that last train bit where we got Momose’s story on when he decided to change jobs was incredibly sweet, very inspiring too, he had the whole train getting emotional, seeing that one guy sobbing really got me tho lol. And the fact Shirosaki was the one who made the ad that caused Momose to make that life changing decision was the cherry on top, I really liked that aspect. And lastly, I absolutely knew Shirosaki would go for the handshake in that after credits bit lol, maybe it’s because I’m a goofy lad myself.

Episode 1: That was pretty gay
Episode 2: Oh no we somehow got SO MUCH GAYER.

I knew this show was supposed to only be baiting and I chose to watch it anyway. But I don't know how many more increases in BL levels I can take before my heart gives out if this ends without romance.
Take my opinions and statements with a grain of salt!

I think it’s more because they are constantly blushing around each other and calling each other cute LOL there’s also alot of hints in the manga tbh to the point that you can kinda tell what the mangaka is going for. For example, at one point Momose and Aigo both yell at the boss that he’s a great person but only Momose is blushing when he says it for literally no reason😭😭 I’d say the biggest thing though is that Aigo is bi (he says it in chap 9.2) so the author isn’t afraid to push boundaries although how far they’ll go who knows🤷🏼‍♀️ again I still highly doubt they’ll become canon so it’s valid to not see them romantically but in this case it’s pretty fair to see the BL undertones

Welp, Shirosaki doesn't like cicadas because of his childhood past, and he wants to promote Momose for his competence...to which to publish his picture being a computer wallpaper, lols.

First the aquarium, now an amusement park with fire alarms which brought back yet another trouble of the past, resulting in a stomach ulcer once again. But Momose is gonna have to stick loser to Shirosaki to save his goofiness. That said, 2 fully grown-up working salarymen going to an amusement, yeah...it's a sore thumb, Other than getting information for the ads, they had some fun as well, though Shirosaki is studious to keep at his job. A lost child that they managed to reunite with his parents, calling out his name as the lost child...oh damn. The final attraction of the haunted house, and Shirosaku is clearly scared over ghosts and the like. This was something that was learnt from Mitsuo.

The journey with the train ride back, Momose remembers his old work conditions, and saw an ad that resonated with him to go to the planetarium and soothe his heart of darkness. That ad gave him all the courage he needed to get out of his old job and join the company where he's at now, together with Shirosaki and the rest. Conversely, it was Shirosaki who made that ad, and he was more than happy that he had influenced someone, and so, Momose was recruited, and he is under the tutelage of him.

Shirosaki may be goofy, but it's for the better.

This more BL than some actual BL and I cannot stop grinning the whole way through. It’s so pure on every level, every mob female character in the background agrees and they all ship it. I hope they get to make an ad for a wedding company one day!

That newsletter picture scene cracked me up so bad, I was literally laughing my ass off at that for a solid minute or two!?! I don't remember when I'd last have laughed as hard, haha.

I absolutely loved this episode. The planetarium ad story was so sweet and the chemistry between the leads feels natural and wholesome! I can physically feel my fatigue melting away while watching this show... (˵´♡`˵)❀༉‧₊˚.

If the anime/manga changed names halfway to “I’m in love with my goofy new boss” I wouldn’t be surprised. It’s pretty fun and chill so far. Probably will be one of the more underappreciated anime of the season. I’m enjoying it so far.

Could have sworn I was watching a romcom anime. Had to constantly remind myself that it wasn't. I appreciate the level of honesty from the pair, although this boss-subordinate extent of friendliness is so foreign to me.

The amusement park scenes, plus the moving scene talking about the planetarium sign and the other one almost crying, no no, this is insane, it doesn't get more BL than this! Even the music was so cute, I felt like I was watching Junjou Romantica!

And the last scene with the "paw" on his hand, ADORABLE!
