This anime screams BL, but it isn't. Don't let that stop you, though. There are so many love confessions, character developments, and feelings realizations that you'll barely notice it is not a BL.
I guess this anime could be considered a BL by merit lol.
Seeing how worried the characters are with each other's well-being and the slow development of their relationships is good for your mental health, and it got me laughing every episode. I was brought close to tears in some episodes too.
Highly recommend if you just want something soft, funny, and romantic to watch. The protagonist has a huge trauma and deals with some type of PTSD because of it, but all the softness and goofiness that's around him heals him and makes you feel good for him as a result.
I feel like it could've focuse…

this show was so good omg like from the start to the end it never once bored me it was so fluffy and adorable and veryu domestic i really like how the characters even the ex boss was lowkey very gay... AND AN ACTUAL GAY CHARACTER KINJO MY LOVE.
momose was a traumatized office worker but then meeting his soul- new boss he started seeing a new light in his world. omg i really liked all the characters they were all very cute and very enjoyable. every episode was fun every conversation was adorable and everycharacter was handsome, the old boss was crazy as hell omg, and damn this dumbasss boss of his should just kick the bucket by now. and i thought kinjos boss would be very cruel the same as momose but turns out i think he were blinded by what he think was good. and damn i really liked how…

I came across this series by accident so went in completely blind.
From the images I thought this was BL. Well, it's not... there is not yet a word to categorize how gay it is though.
The premise is that Momose, previously employed in a black company, was traumatized by his previous horrible boss and poor work environment.
Transferring to a new place he starts the healing process with his new "goofy" boss.
Lots of airheaded and cutesy moments, the show is less episodic in nature and more a series of vignettes strung together to complete the required run time. It's the kind of show made for 5 minutes anime shorts to be honest.
Regarding the "goofy" boss... Ok, so I'm not a fan of the airhead character so I just found him a bit too forced. The show would have done better to endear h…

I highly recommend this anime for those looking for something on the heartwarming/lighthearted side of anime. The genre of is Iyashikei, which is supposed to give a relaxing and "healing" feeling for the audience. This anime definitely achieves that. The plot is simple, office workers becoming friends. It does not move mountains in terms of story and plot, but its soo adorable and silly that you can't help but smile and laugh while watching. As I get older, I feel like I'm in need for more calming anime with adult characters. This achieves that.
There is some serious topics such as PTSD and recovering from trauma. Which I think the anime does a pretty good job at displaying what trauma can look like for someone. But it shows how the characters begin to heal from the trauma.

Cute Boys (Office workers) Doing Cute Things. That's probably to sum up in nutshell. So this is basically gag anime but even if you already know what's going to happen, every episode is surprisingly funny. Setting is in workplace. So for short, our MC, Momose resigned from his job due to abusing boss and got new job with better, kind boss yet clumsy, named Shirosaki. You'll also get to know 2 fluffy characters: white cat that Shirosaki own and bear plushie named Kumatte-chan that one of their peer obsessed with. This show is episodic so one episode is not really related to another. There's dark past story about MC and his former boss but that's only a few, the rest is heartwarming story. So if you want to watch this, turn off your brain for a while and just enjoy the show.

Came across My New Boss is Goofy by accident really. Just happened to read a review of it in a magazine I picked up for me and my daughter. The whole concept seemed interesting enough so I decided to give it a shot.
It was good. That's really it.
The art was good but not great. The story was good but not great, etc. There was really nothing about it that jumped out to me as being spectacular although this also means I found little to actually complain about. The healing vibes are strong within and there are plenty of LOL moments to be sure. Sprinkle in some serious undertones along with a generous amount of sweet (dare I say almost romantic) moments between the MCs along with borderline plot redundancy (the chief constantly pining out loud for affection only to have another character sl…

How Can My New Boss Be So Cute! Very enjoyable anime, the two main characters are wonderful and I also love Kinjou even if the chief can get a little repetitive with the self-pity.
Momose is starting his new job and is feeling anxious about his new manager after having left his previous job due to a high level of harassment from his old boss, his new boss Shirosaki could not be any further from his old boss being a silly little delight of a man, caring, attentive and kind-hearted they bond quickly and slowly start to heal Momose from his work traumas.
These two fellas 100% should have kissed IMO, we do get a mention of Kinjou having an ex-boyfriend as well as ex-girlfriends so it's not as if there was zero consideration to men loving men relationships in the show but it's honestly not a…

there is no heterosexual explanation for this, i-
This is a really good comfort show, and there were no misses in any episode. I feel like towards the end it did lean in to the romantic interest, even though it isn't explicitly BL, like it's the gayest shit ever (good shit at that). Like I would not even call this Fujioshi bait because it's so blatant. It's the definition of "and they were roommates".
While it's true this didn't have much animation and felt like slideshow story boards, the VAs really put their entire vussy into this and brought the characters to life. The story is just very heart-warming and it can be a bit wishy-washy but that's what this entire genre is about, so who cares. It's very comforting and I'm glad I discovered the Cute Guys Doing Cute Things genre. We need m…

I really don't like slice of life anime for certain reasons i'm more of a battle shounen guy, but this show really pleased me...
STORY: the story is not special it is not something like Monster or AOT. simple but enjoyable is a term I use for the story of this show. the characters are one dimensional but they are funny but in the last two or three episodes I could predict what joke we gonna see or I could predict what a certain character wants to say. but with all said I think the author did a good job of giving a backstory to all main characters including the cat LOL! some of them were pretty sad especially the ones about Momose and Aoyama.
Sound: tbh I didn't like the OST of the show I know it gets the job done and is not a big deal for some people but it is for me. I want to be able to…

This is a story about four colleagues turned friends who are refreshingly open about their feelings and who do their best to make each other feel comfortable, valued, and happy. It's not soppy, though, it's absolutley hilarious! Besides one running gag that might become a bit old, the humour is on point, resulting in a dopamine inducing mix of cuteness, wholesomeness, and hilarity. The anime is also surprisingly progressive (one of the guys is openly bisexual) and sends an important message about growing as a person and finding happiness in life. In case you start watching and don't like the cat: Neither did I (at first), and I still enjoyed myself immensely, so please don't let that bother you.

This is healing me soooo much , apart from me being a fujoshi, this heals me mentally too. And the ost also so good, i literally never skipped it. All the characters are so good! We all need that respective characters towards each other.
The story is kinda not what you expected, but throughout the episodes, you'll see it reaching your expectation.
I hope everyone can enjoy this as much as i am. And i have no comment on the artstyle, as it was soooo beautiful. Yes I am biased but you'll see that there's nothing to comment on the art itself. I'm no gourment or professional commentor, but I enjoyed it so much.

This show isn't some big thing with complex characters and incredible well-written plot points—because that's not the point of this series, and I feel like that's one thing people in the community generally never seem to get. Some things are not meant to be a thought-provoking adventure. If you want something super exciting, this anime won't be for you.
Yes, this is mostly a simple but generally wholesome story. The point of the anime is that the viewer has something cozy to watch without having to think too much of what's going in it. You could even call this a cheer-up anime. The characters and scenes are set up to make the viewer think, "That's cute!". Nothing more, nothing less. It does a really great job at that in my opinion. I mostly watched this when I needed something to pick my…

Overall - 8/10 - A decent slice of life series; feels like it falls under comedy as a secondary genre. Character personalities a bit wacky but alright when not taken seriously. Recommended for people who like slice of life; may be a bit boring for others.
Art - 9/10 - no complaints; clean, reasonably detailed, smooth animation, good facial expressions, etc.
Story - 7/10
Generally a decent slice of life plot, has plenty of cute moments, which felt like the major draw.
Personally found the comedy to be a bit hit or miss; some jokes/behaviors felt a bit overused for me (or simply not funny, which is fine - not all the jokes will be a hit with everyone).
Some behaviors/tropes/dynamics seem to be borrowed from BL, which could be alright, though I found some of these aspects clash with what…

This was one of my favorite anime of its cour. It was hilarious and heartfelt while also carrying an enormous absurdity factor at times. Each character is very quirky in their own way and while some of these quirks are things to overcome others are just a part of who that character is and the other characters roll with it. Every episode was entertaining and the absurdity factor, while quite high at times, didn't knock me out of the anime by going too over the top. It was also cute in places which was nice.
If you enjoy weird, quirky characters and comedy with the occasional drama then you'll probably enjoy this anime.

Beautiful, incredible and soft are some words with which I can summarize both the entire series and the end of it, I must say that the end surprised me because I did not expect it and I was already shedding a sea of tears (yes, I am very sensitive) .
I must say that if you like comedy and would like to enjoy a relaxing series that can make you smile (several actually), then this is the ideal one. I will always have Momose, Shirosaki and Hakutou in my hearts, even more so the second he seems like a "young grandfather" and very tender hehe, the relationship that both forge is also very fraternal and it is a duo that I would not want to be separated because They both help each other, more than anything Momose to overcome the trauma that his former boss left him by treating him badly.

Out of all the anime to air in the Fall 2023 season, My New Boss is Goofy completely flew under the radar. This anime follows Kentarou Momose, a new hire at an advertising company after quitting his last job due to an abusive boss. Kentarou’s new manager is Yuusei Shirosaki, someone who almost immediately puts the former’s anxieties at ease. I actually like the character background behind these two and how it’s utilized for the sake of the series as Momose’s traumatic experiences at his old job still haunt him from time to time, but Shirosaki is able to bring some comfort to his new subordinate in a way that helps them form a strong bond with one another. The comedy and banter between these two helps build the very at-ease and chill vibes that this show gives off. However what makes this s…

My New Boss Is Goofy. What a unique title. With that, I chose to give the show a watch out of curiosity.
I'm glad I did. The show is based around the lives of Kentaro Momose, who has quit his old job working under a powerdrunk and abusive boss and his new boss, Yusei Shirosaki. Momose starts working under Shirosaki and at first is worried about possibly getting on the bad side of his new boss. It soon turns out, however, that Shirosaki is nothing like Momose's old boss and is a kind-hearted, yet extremely goofy guy and the two strike up an immediate friendship. The two are joined by their friendly, yet quirky and attention-starved section chief, Mitsuo Aoyama and new employee who jumped ship after talking to Momose regarding his own abusive boss, the extroverted bisexual Aigo Kinjou. Alo…

Everything about this show comes across as low effort. From the outset, I got the distinct impression I was watching a drama CD that was then animated completely independently after the fact. The animation is minimal. The storyboarding is cut-and-paste. The performance is perfunctory. The frigging lens flare-esque filter that's thrown on top of every scene is super ugly. Why did they do that. I would honestly be more offended if someone did put effort into writing this, because god, the first episode of this has our main dude explain his backstory like every time a new scene starts. If you're not just throwing every manga panel into your storyboard one-to-one with no changes to be lazy, how little must you respect your audience?
Adaptation quality aside, the substance is weak. The show ha…

Its a 10 out of 10 ! Loved EVERYTHING ! Story is sad, but we have someone that do his best to work, that is still stressed by his old job and mostly his previous boss, and got a new kind and loveable one.. (small spoiler : Ddidn't expected that the cat would have a VA) buit i was in love with running gag of aoyama (mostly the last episode that make me laugh out very loud ! Relationship between our main characters was very beautifull and if i would say something bad, is the fact that we didn't end with more Yaoi, because the anime has a VERY BIG vibe of yaoi (mostly the 3 last episodes), but there no Yaoi tag, so it couldn't happens, but its the only part that i criticise but that i a way, i can't because, like i said "no tag".
From the end look like we'll not gonna get a season 2
