The first character's surname is Katase, not Takase.

This straight up looks like a fusion between Uzaki-chan and My Senpai is Annoying.

And there is usually also so little focus on the work part that it still ends up feeling like school.

Yeah, that's kind of a problem I've been having with The Ice Guy. I can remember one episode where they sort of focused on it, but other than that... nah.

Looks like the next adorable office romcom!

(I don't think this is made for people who want to see the nitty gritty of the actual jobs...people in Japan get enough of that as is).

Because no one wants to see actual boring office work or be reminded of the realities of such tasks. There's nothing nostalgic or free about it like school, but that doesn't mean there aren't aspects of this setting that can't be presented for service. The people who pick this up just want some nice escapism, feeling a little bit of a connection, and above all a story about a cute office lady heroine fitting to their fetish.

Me included.

I don't think anybody was asking why people like workplace romance, it was more about wishing for design and premise variety.

Yeah, but that's the reason why said aspects are likely irrelevant to the author and main readers because it's not its aim. It just comes down to demographic after all.
