Juzo Haida

**Juzo Haida** is "Haida" and Jiro's father, and appears in Season 5 of the Netflix Original series *Aggretsuko*.

He served as a politician whom earned his wealth during the Japanese asset price bubble before stepping down due to issues with his health.

# Character

## Personality

Juzo is known for being irascible regarding his temperament, always lashing out towards those who oppose his narrow-minded ideals. He is also known for being condescending and uncaring towards his family. He also appears to be somewhat classist towards society's lower rungs as he refers to them as "bottom-feeders."

# Relationships

## Family

### His wife

Juzo only regards his wife as his property, and shows no regards to her happiness, such as drinking alcohol despite her referencing his doctor's advice on not doing so.

### Haida

Juzo has always regarded his older son as a failure and disgrace, due to his own unrealistic expectations for Haida. One major reason behind their terrible relationship is due to Haida and his band singing antisocial songs was posted onto the internet by someone back when Haida was in high school.

He showed no respect for his older son during the parents meeting at the Haida household, both at his own older son's then-girlfriend (now wife) Retsuko and also at Haida. This breaking point finally led to Haida no longer seeking for his approval.

### Jiro Haida

Jiro is Juzo’s youngest son and the favorite of the family, though it was heavily implied in "The Other Side of Rage" that Juzo doesn't have compassionate feelings for him either. Juzo groomed Jiro to be a politician just like him in order to rule for him.

However, when Jiro found out about how Haida got hit by a car, Jiro begins to break free from his father, calling him a fossil and setting up a bill to force politicians to step down at the age of 65. Juzo made Jiro his golden child, but his favoritism caused his son to betray him.

## Netflix Synopsis

"Retsuko loses the will to tackle the daily grind after Puko asks her to join a new business venture. A fed up Retsuko talks back to her supervisor."

## Summary

A reporter is doing interviews in Shibuya about annoying bosses. He accidentally finds Retsuko who tells she has a boss that unloads her work little before its time to leave. She then tells about a boss that makes fun of her for being a woman, but totally bends his back for the one that flatters him. Retsuko then snaps the microphone from the reporter and rages about her lazy boss.

In the office, Retsuko was still thinking about Puko's offer and have been smiling without realizing and making copies of her smile on the scanner. Kabae then sees her and realizes there is something that makes her happy. Having no choice, but knowing Kabae will tell everyone, Retsuko decides to tell her that after five days she finally was able to go to the toilet. Moments later in the bathroom, Fenneko already knew about Retsuko's "toilet" problem. Fenneko had see Retsuko's interview and had realized it was her, but Retsuko tries to deny it. Haida hears the rumor about Retsuko, but it got twisted and now its about Retsuko giving birth. Overhearing them having fun, Tsubone tells Retsuko that she made couple of mistakes in the paperwork. In the end Retsuko couldn't hold it and tells Tsubone if it was that important, she should have done it herself and not give it to her, which left Tsubone speechless. Later that night, Retsuko goes into karaoke and sings about her triumph.

His real name is currently unknown.

# Character

## Appearance

The yoga instructor's appearance is based on a Kangaroo. He has tan fur across his entire body and has a very built body. He is always seen wearing a purple tank top and gray shorts with no shoes.

## Personality

Not much is actually known about the yoga instructor, not even what his real name is, and for a while, Washimi and Gori even thought he was a woman. He essentially forced Retsuko into joining his yoga class but seems to care immensely for his students. Despite saying only the word "Protein", a select few can understand his meaning and convey it to Retsuko or the others.

## Powers

Yoga instructor has the ability to use some sort of telepathic power. He is shown using this power after seeing Gori and Washimi depressed from Retsuko turning down their invitation to go out to eat. He envisions the numbers "9091-89" which he writes down and gives to Gori with no instructions on what it means or how to use it. It appears that he doesn't quite know what these numbers mean either, just that they are important to their situation.

# Trivia

* In episode #9 of the TV Shorts - "Mysterious Yoga Instructor" - Retsuko, Washimi, and Gori believe their yoga instructor is a woman determined to put them through strength training rather than teaching yoga. By the end of the episode, they discover their yoga instructor has a pronounced Adam's apple and are shocked by the realisation they're a man.
* In the *Aggretsuko* Netflix Original series, the yoga instructor is always referred to as being male.
Oowada

Oowada (大和田) is the prime minister of Japan in the *Aggretsuko* universe. He appears in the final episode of Season 5 "The Other Side of Rage" to show his support for Jiro Haida.

# Character

## Appearance

Oowada's appearance is based on a tapir. He has blue skin and black pupils.

He wears a black suit with white dress shirt and a pink tie.
Dokachin

**Dokachin** (ドカチン) is a Net café refugee appearing in Season 5 of the Netflix Original series *Aggretsuko*.

He is a resident at the Anagura Net café alongside "Haida" and Shikabane. He works paycheque to paycheque as a Labourer and helps Haida find his first few small jobs with him on construction sites.

## Character

### Appearance

Dokachin's appearance is based on dog; his fur is brown on a lighter shade around his body, but concentrates on a darker brown around his snout. He has thick eyebrows and slanted dark eyes.

He wears a black hoodie and gray sport pants while residing within the Net café, but switches to some beige baggy cargo pants, dark tennis shoes and a fanny pack across his torso as his work gear. He sports a pair of dark glasses at all times.

### Personality

Dokachin is amiable, willing to trust those who are friends of his friends. He's quick to give Haida a job at the construction site he works at, first making sure that he's willing to do heavy lifting. A gentle giant who's almost constantly frowning, but always dawning a smile on his face.

He's aware of his situation as he's quick to point out to Haida he should find a job as soon as possible, no matter how small, as he could get stuck at the Net café. Although he's willing to help others, he also doesn't want people worrying about him and his relationships seem weak, as he never tried connecting with Shikabane or Haida beyond work.

He disappears soon after Haida moves in with Retsuko, only to be heard of again after he injures his hip while working. Shikabane theorizes that he's suffering from a gambling addiction that eventually ate away at his finances and hiding it from others by claiming that he was paying his ex-wife child support.

He's seen standing straight while watching Retsuko's singing, meaning his hip has healed or, at least, alleviated enough for him to move around. Retsuko's speech at the end implies that he is still homeless, as he is one those voters that couldn't vote as he had no formal address on his ballet.

## Relationships

### Haida

He meets Haida through Shikabane and is willing to give him a job to keep buying nightly booths in the café, although he warns it's as long he's good with heavy lifting. While seeing Haida struggle at work, he cheers him on.

He's very welcoming and amiable towards Haida, arguably protective as he doesn't want him to end up like him - stuck being homeless - by encouraging to never come back to the café and to work hard from now on.

### Shikabane

Dokachin considers Shikabane a friend, and is willing to help any of her friends find work, but they never kept in contact beyond meeting in the Net café.

Retsuko trains Anai on answering the phone on behalf of the company, but he quickly gets nervous and screws up, so she tells him she will handle calls today. Retsuko's mother then calls her on the company phone as she couldn't reach her on her cell phone. She informs her that Shirota wants to marry her, which surprises Retsuko, who then asks for time to think. Going home, Retsuko spends the night thinking about marriage. She then receives a message from Anai, who complains about what she had said during the day, thinking it was a personal attack, robbing him of learning by handling calls herself and violating the company rules by having a personal call. He wonders what was all that and awaits her answer in the text.

The next day, Retsuko asks Fenneko and Haida what they think of Anai, but they both find him a nice guy. Anai approaches Retsuko and apologizes for the trouble from yesterday, wanting to continue learning today, but completely ignores Retsuko's question about last night's messages.

Stoking Rebellion

**Stoking Rebellion** is the sixth episode of the Netflix series *Aggretsuko*.

## Netflix Synopsis

"Washimi acknowledges Retsuko's efforts to make things right with Director Ton, using her position as assistant to the president as leverage to help."

## Summary

The CEO calls Washimi in his office and shows her his plans for noodle slide he wants to put in the office next summer, but Washimi quickly crushes the model rejecting his idea and wants to tell him his schedule for the day. He finds her actions as cruel, since he wanted to brighten up this old-fashioned company and says the model even costed 300,000 yen. Looking at the check, Washimi hopes that he didn't plan on putting it as company expenses and proceeds to tear it up, while he cries and begs her not to do it.

At the karaoke, Retsuko reveals why she is going to yoga. Understanding her plan on marriage and being a housewife, Washimi explains it to her that not something easy, that she will be having zombie-like friends tired of parenting, her husband isn't an ATM machine and that she doesn't even have someone she likes right now. Gori has mixed feelings as love is love, regardless how it starts.

At work, Retsuko has been making tea for Ton the whole day. She sees Tsunoda flattering him and how he softens up to her. Retsuko decides to invite Tsunoda for dinner, where she asks her how she wraps him around her finger. Tsunoda explains that Ton wants to hear that he is great and that's why she always tell him how amazing he is. Tsunoda knew that Fenneko hates her for that and before they ate, she made couple of pictures and posted them on her online profile.

On the next day, Fenneko sees the pictures and gets annoyed asking Retsuko if she is now good friends with Tsunoda, but Retsuno declines it. Haida comes and says he fixed Retsuko computer, which she tests and finds much faster now. Retsuko tells him he is amazing, and Haida gets happy, with Retsuko confirming it was a successful attempt. Director Ton had hurt his back last night and is struggling with his golf practice in the office. Retsuko decides to tell him how amazing he looks, but he finds it like she is mocking him, and things turn against her. Later she tells all of that to Washimi and Gori. Washimi tells her that he is used to threatening her like that, so that will be hard to change, and it's time for them their scheming. On the next day, she visits the CEO telling him that she took care of his receipt for 300,000 yen and tells him about the power harassment of Ton. The CEO was not interested at first, but Washimi explains how it can hurt the company if exposed to the media. Later at the yoga class, she tells Retsuko she spoke with the CEO and then takes the receipt from Retsuko and tears it to pieces as he had annoyed her earlier.

The CEO speaks with Ton and tells him to get along with everyone, which is not to Ton's liking.

## Netflix Synopsis

"Everybody hates Retsuko's badly-prepared yakisoba. Anai doesn't lift a finger to help, until Kabae gives him some words of encouragement."

## Summary

Not getting along with Anai, Retsuko and Fenneko try to use Tsunoda in order she to give him some work. Anai ends up declining and crushing Tsunoda, stating she is overworking him. Fenneko decides they to use their final weapon, Ton, who goes and speaks with Anai if he got used to the job and if he don't mind then treating him like the rest and not as guest. Moments later Ton receives messages from Anai, also awaiting his written reply, which makes Ton cry on how to handle this. In the mean time, Kabae notices Anai's lunch and is amazed he prepared him himself and decides to eat with him. After lunch she asks him questions and teaches him about accounting and congratulates him when he gets it right.

On the Family Appreciation Day, Anai is just standing next to the yakisoba stand they set up doing nothing. Retsuko handles all by herself and her mother is her first customer, but as she tries the yakisoba, she spits it out commenting how disgusting it was. Ton family then comes and his girls try the yakisoba, but they too find it awful. Haida wonders why no longer anyone stops at the yakisoba stand and Ookami reveals that Ton's daughters had spread a rumor about how bad the Accounting's yakisoba is.

Kabae's sons then come and want some yakisoba, but Retsuko tells them she can't serve them as their yakisoba is bad. Kabae then wonders why they don't ask Anai for help and tells him this is a song only he can sing. Anai then starts singing and making yakisoba. Kabae's family loves it, and as Retsuko tries it too, she tells Haida to go and give some to Ton's daughters. Retsuko tells Anai to keep cooking as only he can make it that good. The rumors of the delicious yakisoba spread, and everyone wants to try it. They sold all the yakisoba at the end of the day, and Retsuko thanks Anai for his work.

Tsubone

**Tsubone** (坪根) is an office worker and a secondary antagonist for Season 1 of the Netflix Original series *Aggretsuko*.

Tsubone makes Retsuko's work life a living hell by constantly piling her work onto her so she can leave on time, forcing Retsuko to work almost daily overtime.

# Character

## Appearance

Tsubone's appearance is based on the Komodo Dragon. She has grayish-green scales across her body, raised bumps on her forehead, yellow eyes, what appears to be a hunched back, bright red lipstick, and her forked tongue is usually sticking out. Like Retsuko, Tsubone wears a navy blue vest and matching skirt, white dress shirt, and brown shoes while at work; additionally, she wears a pair of glasses with a chain. She is seen at the end of the month office party wearing a purple sweater, gray pants, and black shoes.

## Personality

Tsubone is a sexist woman who treats her female co-workers poorly (her misogyny is ironic, considering she’s female herself), often piling her own work onto them and talking down to them. On the other hand, she treats her male co-workers very well, blushing and sucking up to them when they talk to her, and sometimes even taking their work and passing it off to a female co-worker. This can notably be seen in the TV shorts when Tsubone is talking to Ookami in the tea room at work and refusing to let Haida open her jar. Tsubone seems to particularly target Retsuko, telling her that she's lazy and does everything wrong.

She will sometimes hide her true intentions behind faux sweetness, such as when she pretended to compliment Retsuko only to pile more paperwork on her already cluttered desk and then laughed maniacally.
