Aggressive Retsuko season 2

 Time for some more hilarious situations with our favorite death metal loving Red Panda!

You would almost forget she is from the SanRio stable of cute little figures...

Having to deal with her co-workers, she also has her mom to take into account when she sends her a totally outdated style little dress.  Her mom comes over to visit, looking to find her a husband and arranging a date. 

While the date isn't a total disaster, her new collegue is.  While he looks like a nice guy, he sends her constantly messages on her cellphone with rules and regulations of the office which he finds are being breached by her training of him.  At a night out with her friends, she starts pondering to get her driving license.  She confronts him, and tells him how incompetent he actually is.

But then they have to man a foodstall for charity together, as she practices car driving.  But Anai keeps making himself impossible, also harassing her collegues with his rulesmongering.  But when the foodstand fails, he comes to the rescue making a far better yakisoba then Retsuko can.  

 

 

As her moms keep trying to couple her, Retsuko ponders more and more what she actually wants to do in her life.  As her mother sends her to a dating party, she meets one of her collegues there.  When she passes her driving lessons, she wants to tell it to a guy she met in class, Tadano.  But he never came back to the lessons, and later that night in the karaoke she has the discussion about marriage with her acquintances, as well as the day after at work, and realises she should have asked his number.

But he isn't the unemployed slacker he seemed to be, actually being a designer of an AI system for company assistance, and he comes to Retsuko's work to present the system.  When he sees her walking down the street, he catches up with her and go for a coffee.  He still plays the poor person in front of her, and they go for some ramen as he takes her on a date... revealing who he truly is to her.  An idealist that wants to change society by ending people to have to go to work as she falls head over heels for him.

 

 

She even joins him on a business trip, but her boss appears there as well to her dismay.  But that doesn't stop her dreams of a happy future with Tadano at all.  He doesn't want to marry though, even as he declares he wants to be with her forever.  She gets advice on how to handle it from the most unlikely of sources though, her boss Ton, realising it might not work out with Tadano and she takes him to karaoke.

This was another fun series with some good laughs, and it remains a cute drawing style after all.
