Aggretsuko is a Japanese anime series in a comedy genre with a different atmosphere, unlike the usual animes. It manages to impress the audience with its colorful characters. We guess that if you are tired of war, fighting, blood, action, Aggretsuko came to you like medicine. The anime, originally broadcast by Netflix, is written and directed by Rarecho. It’s an original production that’s not inspired by any manga or light novels. Created by Fanworks, anime has been released globally on Netflix, so the series, famous worldwide, has aired three seasons. The third season had ended with a sweet finale, but was it an end? Fans are excited for a fourth season now. So has Netflix already renewed the anime for a fourth season?
What is anime: Aggretsuko about?
The red panda Retsuko, who works in the accounting department of the company she dreamed of, is 25 years old and has low self-esteem. Her story clearly shows modern slavery while experiencing all the difficulties of being a woman in business life. Her social life is almost lost, while her sexist boss and self-interested colleagues make her life increasingly difficult. However, Retsuko has a very useful method to relieve stress in the face of all the suffocation of the modern world and business life: Death metal karaoke!
A notable production is Aggretsuko. The reason for this is that almost all of us, especially women, can describe the difficulties they face in daily life in a transparent and funny way. It makes it beautiful and interesting to be told about almost every character with a separate animal. But there is also a sub-text that needs attention: The animal forms of all the characters were created according to their personalities and their reflection in the public space. One of the most obvious examples of this is that the chauvinist, sexist boss is a pig and the open-mouthed gossip worker is told through the hippo. If you watch the rest carefully, you can easily catch them. With this aspect, it can be said that the anime’s method of reflecting in-house slavery and business life is a modern “Animal Farm” metaphor.
In short, Aggretsuko is a critical Animal Farm parody that depicts internal slavery, sexism, and the stress of modern life through animals. The anime has 30 episodes released so far and an above-average score of 8 on IMDb. If there are still those who do not watch, we recommend it.
Will there be a fourth season of Aggretsuko?
The third season of the anime met with the audience on April 20, 2018. In December 2020, Netflix announced that the anime had been renewed for a fourth season. Aggretsuko, one of Netflix’s popular anime productions, completed its third season with a beautiful finale. Fans are now thinking about how the story could continue. Aggretsuko is written and directed by Rarecho. Since the anime is not based on a manga or light novel, what will happen in the new season can only be seen in a new season of the anime.
