Retsuko is a 25-year-old red panda who is growing increasingly frustrated with her job in the accounting department of a trading company in Tokyo as she enters her fifth year working at the firm. All she wants to do is get her job done and make it through the day. But her frustrations often reach a boiling point -- whether it's because of pushy superiors or annoying co-workers -- and when they do she gets her emotions out the only way she knows how -- by going to a karaoke bar and venting through death metal music.

Rhodé Marshall City Press (South Africa) 04/15/2020
In season two, Aggretsuko has grown up, meaning there are more specific songs and more targeted rage, which is different from her scream-singing her stress away like she did last time. Go to Full Review
Dami Lee The Verge 03/24/2020
The second season is streaming now, and it's as hilarious and painfully relatable as ever. Go to Full Review
James Whitbrook io9.com 12/03/2019
Just like its protagonist, the show's sophomore season grows up a little by not casting all its fury in black and white terms. Go to Full Review

8.5/10
This season of Aggretsuko is still worth watching for the same reasons as the first one: relatable humour, pleasant to watch in its simplicity, and the definition of a bingeworthy show. Go to Full Review
Jacob Oller The Spool 12/03/2019
Without making characters shrill stereotypes or comic clowns, the witty exploration of this relationship builds a foundation for the season to place its sillier moments on. Go to Full Review
Caitlin Moore The Daily Dot 06/25/2019
3/5
While Aggretsuko season 2 is always fun in the moment, it's considerably less pointed than the first season, which ultimately makes it less satisfying. Go to Full Review

Johnathon W @Hoppynsc 08/28/2023 Another superb season that sees Retsuko get back into the dating scene when he mother appears. The vocal cast remains superb as the character continues to evolve, especially Retsuko, who gets her driver's license while making some new friends. The show runners also continue to develop the overall world, throwing in some more twists as Retsuko's new boyfriend has a surprising connection to her company. All in all, a fantastic sit-com that just happens to be an anime. See more 12/23/2021 This show brings its comedy to the table, alongside its take on marriage and how people should live. Not to mention the interesting dynamic between Retsuko and Tadano as well. See more 10/22/2021 Another amazing journey following the all too lovable Retsuko See more 10/20/2021 not as great as the first one but still enjoyable See more 10/05/2021 This is pretty much my favorite season. It is a good step up from season 1, and the romance subplot is finally great and well explored. We don't get a tiny exhausting subplot about a herbivore man, now we get actual well fleshed romance that actually brings up very solid emotion. See more 02/17/2021 Despite this season not feeling as relatable as the first since not everyone gets the chance to date a billionaire boyfriend, it's definetly a step up as we the audience continue to see Retsuko face different challenges in her life (that are also somewhat relatable in their own sense): her mother, her relationships, her driver's license, her new co-worker in her workplace and Tadano. There is a lot happening in every episode and I do not think that any of them is there to serve the purpose of just "filler". Each one focuses on the characters in a sense and keeps developing them. I loved how Kabae was in the spotlight this time around because I loved her attitude in the past season and wanted to see more of her. Knowing that she's a hard-working mom that does everything that she can for her children is very heartwarming, and I empathize with her so much. I loved what the directors did to develop the personalities of side characters even more, and managed to balance it all together into another great season. Keep it up! I love this show!
