Fishbaiit’s note: (when I first watched this, I really didn’t know ANYTHING about it, I just saw that Netflix added a new anime so I watched it. When I finished it, my only thoughts were “Damn…What the hell just happened???” I liked it a lot but come on! I understood it yet I was left with a Why? Question).

Has 1 season with 12 episodes

The special has 6 episodes (about 3 minutes each)

You know how the story goes: girl crushes on guy, girl confesses feelings to guy, and guy mistakes confession for a job application. Okay, maybe that's not how it usually goes, but that's what happens when Chiyo Sakura when she finally got up the courage to tell her classroom crush Nozaki how she feels. Since she doesn't know that he's secretly a manga artist who publishes under a female pen name, and he doesn't know that she doesn't know, he misunderstands and offers her a chance to work as his assistant instead of a date! But while it's not flowers and dancing, it is a chance to get closer to him, so Chiyo gamely accepts. And when Nozaki realizes how useful Chiyo can be in figuring out what girls find romantic, he'll be spending even more time with her "researching" while remaining completely clueless.

Fishbaiit’s note: (My sister told me that I was exactly like Nozaki because all I do is think about my stories and characters. I watch something with her and most of the time she’s gonna hear me say “omg that’s so cool! It would be a perfect inspiration for this part of my story!” or “Oh wow, who’s the voice actor for this character?” “I like this characters personality and the way they look, it’s perfect for a character role.” and she gets so mad at me for it.)

Aggretsuko

Genre: Comedy, Music, Slice of Life

Languages: Both Sub and Dub

Has 4 seasons

Each season having 10 episodes

Some offices have stereotypical dynamics: the chauvinistic pig of a boss who never does any real work; the employees whose goal is to suck up to the boss; the ones whose lives seem perfect; and the individuals who have all the actual work pushed onto them. Retsuko the red panda is in the last group, as she stays late most nights to make up the work her coworkers are too lazy to do themselves. Her relief from the stress of her everyday life comes in the form of singing death metal at a local karaoke club. Night after night, Retsuko channels her grief into a microphone and considers the place to be her own personal sanctuary. But as she moves further away from her comfort zone and the ideas people have of her, she discovers that letting others into her world of death metal may not be such a bad thing. (Source: MAL)
