About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like warm, work-focused anime about creative teams and perseverance, especially films like Hanasaku Iroha the Movie: Home Sweet Home or Sing a Bit of Harmony; Not for you if you want a standalone story or nonstop action.

Pros: uplifting teamwork story; behind-the-scenes animation setting; familiar and new faces | Cons: workplace-pressure focus; deadline-driven plot; tied to earlier series
