In the world of Sanrio, everything is sunshine and rainbows, right? Well, it is until you get to Aggretsuko, the brand’s rage-filled red panda who’s a mild-mannered employee by day and hardcore metal karaoke screamer by night.
Aggretsuko’s first season hit all the right notes in representing the frustrations of the workforce, dealing with overbearing bosses, annoying coworkers, and the awkwardness of new relationships. It’s fun and unabashedly millennial, highlighting the woes (and joys) of being a young person in our modern times. But where it fell short was in its formula, and unfortunately, its holiday special, “We Wish You a Metal Christmas,” falls into the same mundane routine, though it does offer some good commentary on the attention we seek through social media.
