'New Game!!' Season 2 Episode 11 Spoilers: Will Tension Continue to Build as Everyone Aims for Their Goals?
The pressure is on at Eagle Jump as everyone makes a dash towards their work goals and personal ambitions on the second season of the Japanese workplace anime series, "New Game!!"
The programmers, Tsubame and Nene, found themselves in a lot of pressure this week as each of them was tasked to work on a mini-game within a deadline.
But while Tsubame was able to quickly finish programming a red light green light style mini-game for Hajime, she still barely made it to the deadline since her coworkers kept pointing out issues with the said mini-game.
Tsubame was able to create the game to Hajime's liking in the end, despite having previously voiced out her concerns regarding the effect the many revisions would have on her job performance. Tsubame has also shown the kind of frankness that may possibly lead her to rub a wrong nerve or two in the series' future episodes.
However, this kind of attitude also served to motivate her fellow programmer, Nene, to take her programming interests and skills beyond the usual debugging work that she has been tasked with at Eagle Jump.
And although Nene failed to get her ball maze mini-game working properly by the end of the deadline, Umiko sill commended her for the effort and told her to continue improving the game in her spare time.
Will Nene be able to grow into a full-fledged programmer with Tsubame's straight and honest criticism of her abilities? Will Tsubame's honesty end up offending anyone in the long run, or will she turn out to be what her co-workers need in order to stay motivated and driven to achieve better quality in their future projects?
