Here's another anime where I've got my fingers and toes crossed hoping it's one of Crunchyroll's TBA slots, or that Amazon Prime has acquired it and just hasn't gotten around to telling anyone. It's got a bit of a Go Go Loser Ranger! vibe but also a workplace comedy vibe. Trailer really snagged me.

Yep, I've got my fingers crossed for this one, too. In fact, even if it doesn't get a legit release, I'll probably chase it "else where."

No idea where to watch this but episodes seem to be 3 minute shorts from what I am reading.

Episode 1
The gag here of course is treating a cog in the villain machine as if he was an ordinary salaryman, down to him going home after "work" still dressed in full costume. At 3 minutes per episode, it doesn't seem like the one note joke is going to get too stale. Fun little diversion. |

With 3 minute episodes it is indeed hard for it to get stale. Interesting about the second episode is that becoming a villain is seemingly a valid and even popular career choice. |

I have rarely seen villains be as supported as the ones in this show. Meanwhile there has not been a single person to speak positively about the hero. |

Surely that was not the end of the show right? |
