The Review:
Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers)
The show has been more amusing than I would have guessed going into it as mascot shows can be pretty weak, but watching ABCiee navigate his job is fun. With this episode, some of the staff including ABCiee have gotten together to discuss ideas for a new show. They’re coming up blank so they opt for a lunch break, but ABCiee is sent out with the knowledge that getting the right bento box for the boss is key to job survival. It’s amusing watching him stress over trying to figure it out in the shop but ends up doing the smart thing by looking it up online – only to find romance-related choices before breaking his phone. He does a decent job of navigating it overall while taking it too far when you get down it, even if his heart is in the right place.
In Summary:
ABCiee is going to be the type to overthink things and that unfolds as you’d expect here when sent out to get food for the meeting. I do like that he’s involved in coming up with shows and it’s open to a lot of people for input but I also like the lessons that the boss teaches through this – even if he should have said what he wanted for a meal. ABCiee is definitely a good kid, however, and he’s a whole lot of fun to watch here.
