Aggressive Retsuko (ONA) 3rd Season

After an emotional breakup with her boyfriend, red panda Retsuko closes herself off to the thought of ever being in love again—well, with an actual person anyway. Retreating into the world of VR, her virtual boyfriend showers her with praise and shows up in cute outfits, albeit for a price.

While scrambling to find other ways to earn money, Retsuko finds herself in yet another financial bind after accidentally ramming into a parked van with a rental vehicle. The owner of the van, a gruff cheetah named Hyoudou, recruits her as an accountant for an underground idol group which he manages. Retsuko soon begins to buckle under the pressure from the new job, leading to plenty of inspiration for her next death metal vent sessions.

In the midst of it all, Retsuko begins to wonder if she truly desires a colorless and uninteresting life, or if there's something waiting beyond her office desk. Will Retsuko finally come out on top, both in love and in the workplace? Or will she once again be convinced that the dull and sterile life in her office environment is the one she must lead?

I was very happy when I found out that Agreetsuko was going to get an anime, and what a good anime it is, I expected something silly coming from Sanrio and it's totally the opposite, it's a well-structured anime with a good story, which manages to keep you hooked as a viewer. This anime leaves nothing to be desired, soundtrack, character development and animation, all impeccable.
I highly recommend it for anyone who likes the character and an anime style that is more compatible with reality.
Regarding the story of this anime, it is extremely interesting, for me I had never seen an anime with this theme ... before, it mixes a subject that many would consider boring with another that draws a lot of attention from those watching, and I really like this contrast that happens during the episodes

Mixed Feelings

This show was good, or it used to be. Im not sure why, but I disliked Retsuko after the second season. This season did not make it any better. Retsuko seems to be too oblivious and is just highly annoying to me. She depends on others too much. Because she's the MC, she makes me not want to watch the show, however the pacing and story was fun.

I enjoyed every other character except Retsuko in each season. I tried liking her, I really did, since she's the heroine, but I can't help but feel irritated at her. If you can mind her while watching ... this, then this will be a really great show to watch. However, if you get irritated as damsels in distress characters, this will not be a good watch as she constantly fails to realize herself. Besides her, all the other characters are great.

[DISCLAIMER: This review is written on the assumption that you've already watched "Aggretsuko (ONA)", "Aggretsuko (ONA) 2nd Season" and "Aggretsuko: We Wish You A Metal Christmas"]

{ My goal is to write reviews that don't take much time to read, yet get the point across, as well as being as spoiler-free as possible. Please be assured that you will learn nothing you can't already read in the synopsis unless mentioned priorly }


After watching the Aggretsuko ONA's I was, unsurprisingly, very excited to watch it. Only to be met with sadness and disappointment.

The story went so downhill. Up until now I really digged the show but now ... I'm honestly so let down it hurts. I know the story could've been done so much better in terms of the events and essentially what happens in general. I don't intend to spoil, so I do hope that you understand where I'm coming from if you decide to watch it even after reading my thoughts on it.

The art was as cute and simple as ever, and the sound is as (especially Aggretsuko's rapping voice actor) good as ever.

The characters made such bad decisions, there are new characters introduced, one of which is an absolute sweetheart, who acts maturely. The things that happen with their ark made me very upset. I expected more smh.

Because of the previously mentioned points, it was absolutely dreadful to watch. I wouldn't recommend watching it, but if you really wanna continue the series then go ahead.
