The series began serialization in 2005 in Square Enix’s Young Gangan magazine and ended on December 25th last year being compiled into 13 volumes. The series received an anime adaptation in 2010 from A-1 Pictures (Sword Art OnlineFairy Tail) that is directed by Yoshimasa Hiraike (AKB0048Gugure! Kokkuri-san). The anime’s second season, Working’!!, was produced in 2011 by the same studio, but was directed by Atsushi Ootsuki (To LOVE-RuLadies versus Butlers!). A third season of the anime was announced late last year.

Here is a synopsis of the series from MAL:

Set in a family restaurant in Hokkaido, the northern prefecture of Japan, 16-year-old high school student Souta Takanashi works part-time along with his strange co-workers: Popura Taneshima, a high school girl who’s a year older than Souta, yet easily mistaken for an elementary/middle schooler, and Kyoko Shirafuji, the 28-year-old store manager who doesn’t bother to do any work at all.

Working!!! will be airing from July 5th at 12:30am JST on Tokyo MX, during the Summer 2015 anime season. Further information about the anime will be revealed soon.
