Uketsuke no Jo Episodes 1~3

The premise of Uketsuke no Jo sounds like something I wound enjoy very much. Jo works for an advertising agency and is put in charge of automating and restructuring the reception team at his workplace. He joins the reception team and learns that the job is not so simple.

At a time where many jobs are being lost due to technology and automation, the story of Uketsuke no Jo is very relevant. Just because management decides to get rid of a job does not mean the work magically disappears.

Uketsuke no Joe also has a great caset for the reception team including Triendl Reina, Nishihara Aki and Miyama Karen. Its so easy to root for the ladies as their job is on the line and they do their work well.

My problem with the show is the main character Jo. He just bloody annoys me and if I have to say why its because he is written in such a way to appeal to the Johnny fangirls. Not the fault of the show of course. It knows who its audience is but I have no desire to continue watching and have decided to drop it. If the concept sounds like your cup of tea and you can stomach an annoying Johnny, you might enjoy it but meh from me.
