Synopsis

Frustrating, insufficient, and irritating is how most citizens would describe civil servants. However, three new employees are about to discover what really happens behind the scenes. Lucy Yamagami, bent on revenge against the civil servant who allowed her comically long name to be put on her birth certificate; Yutaka Hasebe, an easygoing guy always on the lookout for a place to slack off; and Saya Miyoshi, a nervous first-time worker, are about to experience the underwhelming satisfaction of being government employees. They are supposed to be trained by Taishi Ichimiya, but he has no idea how to do so, even though he has worked there for eight years. With an incompetent senior colleague and unfavorable confrontations with clients, the trio starts to lose faith in their chosen occupation but encourage each other to do their best.

If the first episode was about why people join the government, this episode is a beautiful, hilarious tribute to why we lose our minds once we are actually here. Love that the moral we learn here is: no matter how weird it gets, just don't panic.

The opening scene of Miyoshi getting trapped in a repetitive, hours-long conversation with an elderly citizen is 100% accurate. Every public sector worker has dealt with lonely residents who use government desks as a social club.

Like i said before, karena gua lebih suka cerita tentang couple kedua dan juga ketiga di series ini, gua kurang enjoy nonton interaksi antara Lucy dan Hasebe di episode ini, meskipun ada bagian seru dimana kita lebih tau tentang "calon" Pasangannya Saya si Jouji lol
