		Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut	"[5th Season Review]: The fact that 'Aggretsuko' is ending on a fifth and final season is sad, but we should be buoyed that we were given so many stories to enjoy (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Petrana Radulovic Polygon	"[5th Season Review]: It's not just the end of the season, though, but the end of the series. Watching 'Retsuko' grow as a person has been incredibly fulfilling"
		Greg Wheeler The Review Geek	"[4th Season Review]: The changed focus to include much darker themes at Retsuko’s office works wonders to freshen things up"
		Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut	"[5th Season Review]: The fact that 'Aggretsuko' is ending on a fifth and final season is sad, but we should be buoyed that we were given so many stories to enjoy (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Brittany Vincent Decider	"[5th Season Review]: A fantastic return to form for a series that's remained consistently strong over the years since its debut"
		Greg Wheeler The Review Geek	"[3rd Season Review]: [It] continues to offer a delightfully well written anime."
		Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut	"[3rd Season Review]: It keeps up the solid momentum with more energetic but heartwarming chapters (…) Rating: ★★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Petrana Radulovic Polygon	"[2nd Season Review]: This season focuses primarily on [Retsuko’s] interpersonal relationships (...) and handles it all through a complex lens."
		Greg Wheeler The Review Geek	"[2nd Season Review]: I really enjoyed the first season and the second certainly doesn’t disappoint. The three different narratives at play this year tie in nicely together toward the end"
		Caitlin Moore The Daily Dot	"[2nd Season Review]: [While this season] is always fun in the moment, it’s considerably less pointed than the first season, which ultimately makes it less satisfying (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Hanh Nguyen IndieWire	"This delightful season is more like filling up on Costco samples than a more substantial series binge. That’s no doubt part of its charm."
		Dave Trumbore Collider	"It’s a lovely little twist on kawaii characters like Hello Kitty and a wonderful outlet for everyone’s inner frustrations trapped by outward social niceties."
		Kellen Beck Mashable	"Although it can be pretty over-the-top, the show feels very real in many ways"
		Jack Gardner Screen Rant	"The biggest surprise of 2018 (...) [Its] tone and subject matter mix with the crisp, adorable visuals to create a disarming program that can speak to pretty much everyone."
