Well the last episode wasn't bad. Got some good laughs and some things were taken care of. In the end no matter how Lucy isn't happy about the stupid long name, it isn't all bad. Though now Hasebe is really going to put on the pressure now that she's opened the door to going out with him.
That was a good line from Ichimiya, though he really wasn't in a position to say that kind of stuff . At the very least he knows how tough it is to say anything when you carry secrets around for too long. Some progress being made in that he's now going to actively try to tell Toko what's going on, not just something for Chihaya to deal with. Though god knows how long it will take him to come clean with that personality. I'd be surprised they gave a reason to Hasebe's dad giving a half-ass effort on the job, but makes sense to try and tie it more directly to Hasebe himself. Though kids get sick so can hardly lay it on Hasebe in that regard. If every time his kids got sick his dad screwed up in some manner there are probably a ton of unhappy people out there.

Probably because the lack of more materials, the anime staff really carried away (as they wrote in the end ) and make original ending, especially for Hasebe x Lucy pair. Not that I against it, in fact I love it (gotta love when Hasebe gets conquered by Lucy ) but this means they probably won't do season 2 unless they make some changes and even by then they have to wait for years for more materials. As far as I know the anime have covered all the released tankoubons, and even some chapters beyond that, for example the girls cosplaying part.
But, this is the best anime for this season for me, enjoy it so much

"ZAMA MIRO sounds like ZAMA MEE ROH. Informal phrase meaning "serves you right!" or "you had it coming!" and can imply a "in your face!" type of comeback."

Ah cool so it actually is actual slang.
Last episode was decent. Kind of a safe ending as expected, but stuff did progress a bit. Hasabe is so in love with lucy. Maybe once Lucy comes around too she can be like "I'm fine with my name, because of it, I was able to meet you" *censored Lucy x Hasabe h-scene* |

I was confronted by a kind of tension so thick that I needed an industrial-strength chainsaw to cut through it. Fortunately, all it took was the combined efforts of Megumi and Miyoshi's corrosive words to break through. The tension was also handled well, not too serious and handled with just the right amount of humor.
Lucy eventually managed to acknowledge the fact that having such a convoluted name wasn't that bad at all, and her blossoming relationship with Yutaka can finally move forward! Series #178 GET!

How I wish we'll get another original story as OVA, Hasebe and Lucy do-over date like they promised. And they'll go to certain family restaurant, some familiar cameo there. And at the end of the episode, bam! Announcement for season 3 of Working.
Probably not going to happen

Very strong finale overall, I thought - a nice balance between silliness and treating the rather silly main conceit with enough respect. I was also happy with the way things were left off with Hasebe and Lucy.
My favorite part of the ep, though, may be Namikawa Daisuke as Hasebe's Dad - especially his "Wow!" reaction to Yutaka's spit-take. This guy is an amazing verbal chameleon.

I'm very pleased with the final episode. Lucy and Hasebe's "conflict" was resolved nicely, and although they haven't started going out yet, we know it will happen for sure in the future. The episode has made it clear Lucy likes Hasebe (the part where she asked Hasebe to keep calling her Lucy was so cute!). That's satisfying enough progress for me. I wish Chihaya and Ichimiya's relationship had progressed as well, but alas Ichimiya still needs to grow a spine first. At least Chihaya gained some small consolation by getting the girls to cosplay for her. Better than nothing.
I figured I would like this show since I loved Working!!, but I didn't expect it to be my favorite show of the season. I loved everything about it. The humor, the romance and the characters were all fantastic. Here's hoping it gets a second season once there is enough material to animate.

All I have to say is:
SECOND SEASON NOW PLEASE! Best show of the summer...and my personal favorite so far this year. Hell, I might even give in to my hatred of Aniplex and invest in the dvds/blurays whenever they come out...
