My best friend and I were actually looking forward to Working!! A lot when we were getting ready to watch it. We thought that it would be a slice of life series we would enjoy so much....but it fell apart and for my friend and I there was one BIG problem. The main female character is supposed to be Popura (Poplar) Taneshima...it even says so on her information. The role of the main female character though seems to go over to Mahiru Inami....and that didn't go over well with us. The series starts and Popura needs to find someone else to work at the restaurant she works at and ends up finding the main male character Souta Takanashi and bringing him along. He takes the job and then meets all of the quirky characters who work there where not one single person is normal but the characters personalities is one of the things that makes the series good, nobody is the same. Though there are again problems with this. Popura who is SUPPOSED to be the main girl character is very small and always called an elementary student...which makes no sense with her character design because to be blunt she has a large chest which I think obviously shows she's seventeen. Also they make her seem too childish and dumb at times when she herself said she's a science student and good at math so there's no WAY she's dumb. But again instead the role of main female character seems to go to Inami...who must be the most annoying character. She suffers from a phobia of men and has extreme strength so when she meets Souta she punches him again...and again...and AGAIN and it gets awfully repetitive with her doing the same thing. She's also one of those characters who blushes at everything and stutters and is overly obsessed with chest sizes. I personally couldn't stand how much the series focused on her, it literally gave both my friend and I a head ache. However all of the other characters even the not so important ones are great and really add feeling into the show. For those who are fans of Daisuke Ono, Jun Fukuyama and Hiroshi Kamiya all three of them have a great roll in the series. The humor in the series is great for the most part except the parts that are supposed to be "funny" or "cute" with Inami. For my friend and this series started as a 9 on episode one...then it just went down from there but it's not TERRIBLE it's just not the best. i love the opening and ending, i love the art, and I love most of the characters. My friend and I still plan to watch season two which will hopefully focus more on who the ACTUAL main female character is.
