Synopsis

Shomuni 2 is a sequel from Shomuni, a popular comedic drama serial. It continues where it left off when the female employees from GA-2, deemed "the graveyard of all female employees" for its inane daily job routines of changing light bulbs, used toilet rolls and organising flower appreciation nights, saved the company in the final episode of Shomuni.

However, Manpan Corporation has changed. The multi-national company is now run in a totalitarian fashion. Closed circuit cameras are placed in every nook and cranny of the company to monitor the daily routines of employees. Even the basins in the toilets are not spared (though, obviously, the cubicles are) from scrutiny. This is a result of the Personnel Department, led by the evil Terasaki and Nonomura, who are (again) seeking to find a reason to save up on company budget.

1.	As good as the 1st one [Rating: 9/10] If you like the 1st series, you will like the second one. Starting July 2002, they will air the 3rd and final series. I can't wait to watch that one!
Reviewed by jdfan* on 5 July 2002*
2.	More Naho..! [Rating: 10/10] Not sure if it's better than the first season, but it's just as good. Naho and Esumi are so hot! And for those who are new to the series and are watching this season first, it's a corporate parody about five OLs who help keep the company afloat.

3.	Better With Age [Rating: 9/10] I always have reservations starting the second season of any drama, especially when the first season was so grand. But I had nothing to worry about here. Like with wine, the characters have gotten better with age. Now that we have gotten the initial introductions out of the way, it was fun to see the characters, especially the GA girls, be true to themselves in these new situations. The story-lines were more varied in this season and far more hilarious. I was actually laughing out loud during some of the episodes. Everything is just a little more silly and I loved it. I hope the third is just as good...

1.	Comments by Super No. 1 [Rating: 7/10] Very humorous.
2.	Comments by jaycee [Rating: 7/10] same as abouve (shomuni 1)
3.	Comments by jdfan [Rating: 9/10] This is story about 6 OL and how they inspired the whole company. The write used the "Hero" technique, which included multiple short stories. I enjoyed the second series too.
4.	Comments by otaking [Rating: 9/10] Hilarious! This one struck me as a non-serialistic anime series done up in live-action, similiar to GTO. Esumi Makiko captured my heart and my fandom with a single episode.
5.	Comments by amethyst [Rating: 7/10] Carries on the characteristics of Shomuni 1. Still as fun to watch.
6.	Comments by iluvhyde [Rating: 7/10] A bit less interesting as compared to the first one.
7.	Comments by zealous [Rating: 7/10] I enjoy when I watch the doroma even I don't feel that in the real life we would not find maybe 1 or 2 the main character from this dorama, but yeeah... I enjoy... They still show to us how work as a group is important to everybody to settle the prob.

28.	Comments by SabrinaOshio [Rating: 9/10] I like it.
29.	Comments by merumerumee [Rating: 10/10] continuation of shomuni...with more funny stories with esumi and co.
30.	Comments by ShomuniFan [Rating: 9/10] Had me laughing very hard after Shomuni 1. Hosyo Mai looks more beautiful this season. That aside, a new character has been put in: Kamiya Shintaro (played by Sawamura Ikki) is now the chief security officer of Manpan Corp...The role isn't particularly interesting or intruiguing like the female Shomuni members. Watch out for Personnel Department Chief Terasaki's (played by Takahashi Katsumi) becoming Acting President of Manpan in a middle episode as well as the hilarious last episode of this series.
31.	Comments by kaonashi [Rating: 7/10] Just like the first series, nothing more nothing less. Some episodes are funny. 7-
32.	Comments by stargirl [Rating: 7/10] Funny but not as amusing as the first
33.	Comments by Geezer [Rating: 10/10] I love Shomuni. This is just more of the wonderful same.
34.	Comments by takim [Rating: 7/10] best
35.	Comments by addlynna [Rating: 10/10] best
36.	Comments by enen_shun [Rating: 9/10] as successful as Shomuni 1 ~ Shomuni 2 continued the same style ~~ still so hilarious and interesting ~~~ Makiko Esumi still looked soooo cool ~~ kekez ~~
37.	Comments by cheery [Rating: 8/10] As interesting as the previous , very funny and relaxing show!
38.	Comments by moonchyld [Rating: 6/10] watched only a few episodes... didn't like it as much as the first.
39.	Comments by anoneko [Rating: 8/10] As funny as Shomuni 1. Makiko Esumi is so cool in this show!
40.	Comments by donna8157 [Rating: 8/10] The continuation of the first Shomuni Series. If you enjoyed the first one, you'll definitely enjoy the second one. It involves the same cast and a few new characters, mainly Kamiya played by Sawamura Ikki, who found his calling to be a security guard in the first episode. The same kind of antics abound with the girls of Shomuni, however there seemed to be less of a focus on the development of Ukyo/Tsukuhara and Ukyo/Chinatsu. All in all, I really enjoyed the second installment to this series and found the comedy to be refreshing.
41.	Comments by Lil_Naka [Rating: 8/10] pretty much like the first season, funny and worth watching
42.	Comments by gqstyle09 [Rating: 6/10] almost as fun as the first, tsukahara's stupidity gets on your nerves though
43.	Comments by Lilferret [Rating: 6/10] An interesting little drama that showcases characters each episode. It is a light comedy with dramatic elements.
44.	Comments by curian4 [Rating: 7/10] Second season didnt dissapoint because the humour was still there
45.	Comments by Dorochive [Rating: 2/10] Are you sure you're gonna bother this one?
46.	Comments by nienna [Rating: 7/10] another of esumi's dramas!!!
47.	Comments by Aunty Coco [Rating: 7/10] Prefer the first one... But still never fail to bring out lots of laughter...
48.	Comments by Wisteria [Rating: 7/10] Good sequel to a good series, more of the silly humour from the first series.
49.	Comments by idetakun [Rating: 8/10] funny and intriguing~~ kakoi so shomuni no minna
50.	Comments by _nami_ [Rating: 10/10] Too
51.	Comments by AK [Rating: 10/10] Another perfect season for Shomuni. More fun for everybody, great characters and stories. The fun is compulsory here. ALL, ALL the characters (actors and actresses, I ust say) look more interesting and prettier than they were in the first part. Chinatsu with that long hair looks... amazing and Sugita has even more elegant suits. She looks fantastic! My favorite episode is when Sugita and tsuboi change roles. Hehe...
52.	Comments by jrenfuweix8956 [Rating: 7/10] hmm.. gd ba...
53.	Comments by Ushiroyubi [Rating: 6/10] funny... no real direction.
54.	Comments by inessalenin [Rating: 9/10] Same type of story development but still funny!
55.	Comments by nishishi [Rating: 8/10] Better than the first one.. at least imo... The last episode is marvelous... Altought most of the times i dont like sequels as i liked the first one(e.g.: Gokusen 2... Trick 1&2.. and probably Hana Yori Dango 2) I really enjoyed Shomuni 2 better than the first...
56.	Comments by Helena [Rating: 8/10] FUNNY! INTERESTING! LOTS OF JOKES! I laugh almost on all ep, e casting is really good, every1 got their own characters 8.5/10
57.	Comments by gto_girlz83 [Rating: 10/10] Even the season 2 is great and becoming much better! I like esumi character very much in this type of drama..go Shomuni!

60.	Comments by gaijinmark [Rating: 10/10] In the tradition of "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Aliens", that rarest of all creatures, a sequel that EXCEEDS the original!!!
61.	Comments by pinkokoro [Rating: ?/10] COMPLETE.
62.	Comments by chokakoi [Rating: 8/10] Funny! Not bad!
63.	Comments by Wynter [Rating: 9/10] Just as good as the first season, but with better story-lines and a lot more humour!
