Hataraki Man

Hiroko Matsukata works at a magazine publisher, throwing herself into every assignment with a reputation for being tough, candid, and relentlessly dependable. When deadlines loom, she can flip a switch into her “Hataraki Man” mode—an all-in, no-excuses work persona that keeps her ahead in the office.

But while her career is thriving, her love life isn’t keeping pace. Hiroko is willing to cut out early for a date, only to find her boyfriend is an even more devoted workaholic than she is, leaving romance to compete with the demands of the job.
