The
anime
of
Odeko Fujii
's
Cute Executive Officer
(
Y?jo Shach?
) manga is getting a sequel that will premiere early next year. (The announcement uses a term that can mean either the New Year's period or early spring.) The
Y?jo Shach? R
sequel will stream on various services.
The new cast members include:
Ikumi Hasegawa
as Yoshine Fud?, a new employee on loan from Kitsune Company

The staff is also teasing two characters without revealing their voice cast members yet:
Yamada-san, an office worker two years after joining the company
Dokudakomaru, a 22-year-old new employee in the sales department ? who happens to be half-octopus and thus can exude powerful acid (that dissolves anything) from its palms
The returning cast members include:

project No.9

,

performs the opening theme song "Narase! Mujina Symphony" (Sound Off! Mujina Symphony). Najimu Mujina (as voiced by
Rina Hidaka
) and Neko Hacker perform the ending theme song "O-Hi-Me-Sa-Ma!" (Y-O-U-R R-O-Y-A-L H-I-G-H-N-E-S-S!)
The social commentary gag comedy centers around Najimu Mujina, the president of Mujina Company who is neither an adult nor a genius, but an aggressively average five-year-old girl. All the familiar trappings of adulthood like match-making parties, contracts, and socializing while golfing are new experiences to her. The story follows Najimu as she navigates modern life with her capable but too indulgent secretary, her office worker of unknown nationality, and her employee who plays the comedy straight man role to her antics.
The first anime premiered on January 1, 2021. Hong Kong content distributor
MediaLink Entertainment Limited
streams
the anime on its Ani-One
YouTube
channel.
