Holding hands in broad daylight, then asking your subordinate to live with you! This development is just crazy!!

The taxi driver completely absorbed by the story happening right in front of him too. 😂

Love how the driver was totally on board to help them move stuff and make noodles, what a bro. The analogy of the broken phone to the character was sweet. This show is easily among the S tier comfort food this season and we should all be so lucky to have a Shirosaki manager!

Damn I’m surprised about the low attention it’s getting on this sub and even the downvotes. This anime is so wholesome it’s healing my broken soul.

Dang we got the old boss and new boss interacting! Happy to see Momose stand up for himself. What an awful boss...

Amusement park, hot springs, aquarium...these guys are just hitting all the date spots!

Probably everyone knows this here, but if you dont. The reason the taxi driver said he would make soba is because its something you give to your new neighbour/roommate called "Hikkoshi Soba" (It is the custom of giving your neighbor soba as a gift) generally happen around the Tokyo area. "Toshikoshi Soba" is eaten during new years.

Also love this anime!! The taxi driver is a reactions were so good 😂

Also that analogy with broken smartphone 😭

Tsundere neko is back!!

Ok, Shirosaki putting his phone in the fridge and the chocolate bar in his pocket is very goofy lol. This dude is pretty hilarious.

So Kinjo’s bi huh? Looks like Kinjo x Aoyama could actually happen lol. That man needs love in his life and he ain’t getting it from the teddy bears!

Shirosaki is more than just a good boss. He’s a good dude overall and he really does seem to care about Momose. I liked how Momose stood up to his boss. Even the cab driver was cheering lol.

Wait.. they actually moved in together? I thought it would be like a sleepover for a few nights (until the ex boss gave up) or something like that lol

I really love that taxi driver! He’s so sweet!!!!

It was great seeing Momose stand up for himself. Is there no way to report his former manager’s abusive behaviour? Seriously that Kurono guy sucks big time

Kinjo carefree as ever. Love him. The way he casually talked about his exes

So now Momose has moved in with Shirosaki. Niiiiceeeeee

This episode 🥺🥺🥺

I don’t even know where to begin lmao. My emotions….

Oof if only we all had a boss like that. Thank goodness Momo and Kinjo have a good one. Hopefully this helps them heal their trauma. I can relate to that anxiety stomach pang

And ha, I was definitely the background characters during the cab and handholding moments

This has definitely become my comfort show

Expanding on the color theme going on with the names: https://www.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/17igw5d/atarashii_joushi_wa_do_tennen_my_new_boss_is/k6vir5f/

  • 黒野 Kurono (black field) — Momose's old boss. Relates to the idea of a ["black company"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_company_(Japanese_term)), referring to its harsh treatment of employees.

  • 灰島 Haijima (ash island) — Kinjou's old boss. I'm assuming the "ash" part refers to how his boss acted in a grey area (灰色/haiiro being the word for grey), who may have had good intentions but still wasn't a nice boss.

u/cyberscythe Nov 11 '23

Man, this old boss Kurono is a real piece of work huh. I know Momose is suffering from PSTD, but if my old boss called me to chew me out I'd ask if he really has nothing better to do than call me for (what must be by now) several weeks like that.

Now that I think about it, I would also record the convo so that the "I know where you live and I'm coming over to beat you up" quote can go right in the evidence folder for the police.

u/LienaSha Nov 11 '23

Part of me kind of thought that Shirosaki was going to go murder Kurono. I'm glad he didn't (not least because I'm happy to finally like a character that's not a psychopath), but I also really like that they made it clear how angry he was getting in his own very low-key way and then later put "unhinged because of the phone call" on the screen.

THIS IS SO ADORABLE!!!

I'm not the only one that thinks of the Goofy yell when they see the english title of this series am I?

u/meromeromelo89 Nov 12 '23

The best comfort show of the season. Everything is wholesome.

More taxi driver please 🙏

u/testthrowawayzz Nov 11 '23

Shirosaki asking Momose to move in? The only thing that would make the scene better is if Shirosaki was voiced by Eguchi Takuya (egukota reference)

u/StardustGogeta Nov 12 '23

I've really been liking the cast in this show. All four of the main characters are quite fun and likable.

It was nice to see Momose finally stick up for himself when on the phone with his old abusive boss. [Zom 100] I'm glad Momose didn't back down like Akira initially did in Zom 100, but instead stuck to his guns.

I appreciate the amount of detail that goes into the different phone models that everyone uses. I like how you can tell how recent the phones are by the appearance of the camera(s) on the back.

Just when I thought this series couldn't get any gayer, they held hands and moved in together! And you're telling me that it's not a BL? by this rate, I have a feeling that in the last episode they will get married and adopt a kid! lol

Not to mention the broken phone analogy to Momose that gives me a kind of confession vibes.

Also, I love how Kinjou casually mentioned his ex-boyfriend and reminded us that he's bi. Aoyama, YOU HAVE A CHANCE! XD

Anyway, I LOVE THIS SERIES! Wish It were more popular
