First of all, it looks like Inami has been hated by some people in MAL.

wow... just, wow... the date was really fucked up: Yamada throwing water to Takanashi for then, disguise him as Kotori, Takanashi being distracted by little childrens and puppies, and calling Inami a "dog"... Maya apeared for almost half of the episode. I want a second season D:
And as final episode, was ok, not awesome. 4/5

Vrrrrroooooooommmm!

What to say, it was good I guess. Faithful to the rest of the anime an open ending... as if it could have been something else, and a bit of character development.

I liked it, this show was faily enjoyable.

"Yamada accidentally spills water!"

XDD

Series gets a 7/10 from me, but I feel I am being a little generous. The show relied on the same joke way too many times in my opinion, but I felt it got better as it went.

Second season is the only possible solution.
The end is REALLY frustrating, as if i would be one of them.
I hope Takanashi would accept his feelings towards Inami and everything will be alright.
But now... I'm nervous. :(

I was hoping for something more romantic, and came out disappointed. Oh well, it IS only a slice of life series =|.

Overall, I enjoyed Working!! though.

They can walk to Wagnaria LOL

Finally Maya speaks:D She claims herself to be normal but not that normal.
lol at Yamada spilling water at Katanashi and crossdress as Kotori chan, plus Souma has to buy clothes for YamadaxD
I think the ending is okay, I didn't expect much but at least it was funny:D I don't want a second season but I guess another season would not be so bad. 8/10 for me.

I really hope there's a second season and since the 4-panel manga is still ongoing then it might have in the near future.. Hoping that Takatsu won't get bored doing it =)

Gosh, as much as i had enjoyed this episode, it left me unfulfilled. The spotlight was somewhat on Yamada imo. Everything witty she said cracked me up ^ ^

I also seriously hope there is a second season with A LOT more Takanashi x Inami or even some Satou x Yachiyo :P

Working!! is a great anime, even though it's not as popular as it should be ><

Loved the episode, perhaps more as an episode on its own rather than as a finale. Then again, Working!! never had much of a plot to begin with and it's from a 4-panel comic, so I didn't expect a whole lot of finale-ish stuff. Still, it was very enjoyable. I had to restrain myself from laughing out loud several times (parents are sleeping across the hall >.>). Maya and Yamada were my favourites this episode, although Satou came really close ^^ I didn't enjoy the Takanashi and Inami date as much as I though I would, though.

Overall, the series was entertaining -- even brilliant at times -- but continued focus on Inami's androphobia and some more lackluster moments kept it from being great. Therefore, I give Working!! a solid 7/10.

Well, this was fairly average. What I wanted from this series was Poplar but what I got was that bitch, Inami (in context of female dog in an attempt of bad humor to amuse you from the reference of her being a "dog" this episode).

A 7/10 seems just about right for being mildly entertaining and not being a job to watch.

Maya reminded me of that one girl from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei... Nami-chan, ya.

And, for a series that was going so good and enjoyable, this last episode was pretty crappy and boring. :P I'm keeping the 8/10 because the other 12 were good.


*Hopes for a second season*

Eh I wasnt expecting anything meaningful as far as relationship closure, in fact the date went better then I thought and I guess since she like's her new nickname, then it was win win. All characters were funny, and finally Maya did her part, gotta love her. A very funny series, shame couldnt be 26. Oh well, heres hoping for another season by next spring.

So anti-climactic. I hope this sells well in Japan so we can see a season 2. There's plenty of room for more fun at the Wagnaria, and Takanashi admitted Inami was cute! That's a step to liking her outside of his small-mini requirements! Still, enjoyed the series a bunch, hope a second season happens one day, or at least an OVA.

Same here, but they are opposites.. Maya likes to be normal, Nami on he other hand doesn't.. XD

Takanashi going on the date as a male is meaningful in so many ways for this episode and the moment I saw Takanashi in Kotori-chan form I was guahh, it so ruined the mood from the get go, and me feel that the date is pointless..

Wow Maya had a lot of part in this episode.. I thought the focus for this episode was the date.. Why did they introduce a character so late in the show?? It would be nice is she got more part in the earlier episodes though.. Still I like her character design, the opposite of Nami from SZS.. ^_^

I was expecting a much better finale than this, pretty much the same as a normal episode for me so I'm still alright with it.. Overall the whole series was pretty fun for me to watch and one of the series I truly enjoyed this season, so I still gave it 9/10.. =)

(Will add Working season 2 to my prayers.. )

It was an anticlimactic episode which I actually expected and I liked. This show was one of my favorites this season.
I'm glad they finally introduced Maya she seems like an interesting character.
I want a season 2. Hopefully there is one. :)

I really enjoyed this episode and this series overall. I think its the MOST underrated and underappreciated show this season. There wasn't any other show that I looked forward towards more. The cast is absolutely superb, most of the jokes and gags hit just right, and the majority of the episodes left me feeling pretty satisfied. I do agree that the show is a bit too Inami focused (a worry that might make a season 2 less than stellar if it continues that trend) and that Inami as a character can be annoying but I feel there are plenty of other quirky characters and gags the show can offer which won't tire as easily. I can't wait for a season 2 (more emphasis on the chemistry between the cast as a whole not just between Inami and Souta please!) which seems likely with the resounding success of the DVDs so far. In the meantime, I'll definitely be giving this show a rewatch this summer along with recommending it to anyone and everyone who likes a good laugh.

Ruined the mood? This isn't a romance anime, you can't really expect much from a date in this anime.

I wasn't talking about, nor implying romance. Also, implying comedy doesn't have mood? It wasn't funny.

Writing was poor. Every joke in the series is honestly repeated at least once each episode. I think I might have enjoyed it if they didn't try to shove the "quirks" of the characters in my face. Overall, it just wasn't funny.

Oh, and as charming as Maya is, introducing a character in the final episode is a big no no for me.

4/10.

EDIT: Oh, and I generally dislike fanservice, but Working! could have really benefited from some good FS.

All of you are expecting too much from a nonchalant laid-back series, the good thing about these series is that there doesn't have to be a plot or anything serious for that matter.

As for this episode, Sato ordering poplar a kid's meal had me going, so was when Yamada goes "I live here" to Maya.
