Well there's always looking forward to seeing a 3rd season after all this is baised off of an on-going 4-koma as of now though.

In any case I stated before that this was one fo those series you didn't mind having it becomming an ongoing deal with certain points of course. In any case I did enjoy them ading his sisters into the mix for a bit, but I was hoping to see a bit more of them since they do add to this series in thier own unique way of course.

Despite my complaints that some of the gags were becoming repetitive like Kyoko's bottomless pit for a stomache, I did really enjoy it. I miss my weekly dose of Working now...

I was glad when they gave her more screen time and let her character shine. She should be a part of the regular cast.

I watched all of season 2 in one sitting just now, I couldn't stop because it was such a great watch. In my opinion, season 2 is better than the 1st season and I really want a 3rd season.

There were so many times when watching season 2, I will find myself rewinding and watching a scene many times over because it was so damn hilarious. I was laughing very hard for almost every episode of season 2.

I like the last episode, where we finally see Maya showing some character and not just being the background as she was in the majority of the episodes. I especially loved it when Satou was wrapping her hair around a cucumber and then the whole "normal" thing that Satou and Souma used against her right after the cucumber thing, was just awesome.

This series was soooooooooooo good that will it be sorely missed by me, I remember reading a few volumes of the manga, I might go back to it. Only half of the released volumes have been scanlated according to MangaUpdates.

Overall, my rating for a superb 2nd season is a perfect 10/10.....I want MOAR!

Working'!! is basically the same series as the first season with a slightly larger cast. There was some "plot development" but for the most part, the comedy remained the same and eventually became recycled. The "introduction" of Maya was a nice way to end the series though given how little screen time and dialogue she has overall. The introduction of "Yamada's" brother, however, was a waste if you ask me. Yachiyo's and Satou's relationship development was a nice touch though.

Animation hasn't really improved that much from first season aside from making the transition from SD to HD.

Music has also remained the same for the most part. The OP sequence is as fun as ever and the ED theme is better this time around.

Enjoyment? Comedy remains, some new some old. Not much has really changed since first season as said earlier.

Overall, I expected a little more out of this season and am kind of disappointed but it did shower with a little bit of surprises.

Preliminary Score: 7/10
Final Score: 7/10

last but not least I think (still have last exile to watch and GC to finish...).

I managed to finish this one after ika musume got me in the mood, and felt the series did well expanding on the first season without losing its charm. The first couple eps dragged a bit but the latter eps that compounded on the initial developments ended up being enjoyable. I like the de-emphasis on man punching and expansion of the cast too. However, I probably wouldn't watch this given a different comedy to watch even though some of the antics were cute and the art style was somehow refreshing. Somehow the weird characters feel more believable than those in tomodachi even though they shouldn't, probably has to do with the grounded setting. 6/10 from me.

To think in the lase episode Matsumoto-san actually gets more air time. Not only that but she even gets to play an active role with this epsidoe.

To think this whole ordeal started all because Poplar thought she was getting taller and with Yamada-san noticing that Takenashi-san was getting depressed over her mistook the whole ordeal about her wanting to quit her job. Not only that but she even ran with the idea as well.

Never the less I have to give props for Matsumoto-san for actually having an active role and not only that but able to tell of not only Sato-san, but Yamada-kun as well.
With that I hope we get to see more of her in a third season, if there is a third season of course.

Besides it looks like Inami-san feels fine about takenashi stating he wouldn't leave just because Poplar-chan decided to leave. It makes me think that deep down he does like her, but at the same time isn't even aware of it at all.

I dont think we will see more of Maya except for the last ep of season 3. And I must say that Im already tired of her after seeing her for two eps so I dont even need to see her more often.

If you can say anything bad about this show its that it doesnt finish things, like male-Yamadas search and Ootoris search where a conclusion would be nice.

Seeing how everyone was worried and their goodbye-sayings were great. Especially Kyouko who gave her a cherry. That was so strange but perfect for her nothing eats that.

Overall season 2 was better than season 1 but not that much. Just like season 1 it gets a 8/10 from me.

that's one of the main reasons why the first one barely got 7/10 but this time was quite good in many aspects like introducing more characters, better animation and gags with some cast development specially Inami who I didn't like much before but now is alright ^^ ...thanks to all those improvements Working´ gets 8/10 as I liked the last episode more that the previous finale but that may change if a third season comes, something as random as Nichijou had 26 eps. and officially will continue next year so why not Working´´? -.-

well you're right in some extent, to concentrate in collage exams and go to cram schools she told Yamada about quiting eventually but she took it as Popura would leave Wagnaria immediatly and told everyone else ¬¬ ...anyways was great to see Maya again but now with a lot of screentime interacting more with her co-workers and trying harder to be normal but failing in the intent, hopefully (if there is another season) she will be a regular of the cast in all the next episodes unlike only the finale of the first season appearing a few seconds

I agree this show is so well written'

I bet Popura-chan is getting ready to graduate and thus leave wagnaria

Its sad that there is only one ep left since this show is just great. And this season even better than the last since everyone got about the same screentime instead of only focusing on Inami and Takanashi.

The scene about Izumis emotional rollercoaster was great. Especially the end when shes happy that her brother is a pervert.

I wonder if Popura will leave the Wagnaria. The title spells it, but Im pretty sure that is only there to mislead us, shes probably only taking a day off or something.
