SYNOPSIS
It's been a year since Hanasaki Mai was promoted to the Assisting Department at the head office. She used to work as a bank cashier for five years.

The Assisting Department is tasked with investigating anomalous cases in the bank branches that has caught the attention of the head office. Mai and her superior Sōma Ken go to the bank branches to personally assist the bank managers in resolving the unprecedented issues.



REVIEW
Hanasaki Mai ga Damattenai 2 is about the banking industry and banking operations. It is a continuation of its prequel 花咲舞が黙ってない Hanasaki Mai ga Damattenai where Hanasaki Mai and her superior Sōma Ken go about doing their jobs.

It's quite strange to see Mai even manage to get a foot in the bank's head office because the banking industry in Japan is quite traditional and male-dominated, probably like most other industries in the country. In the drama, I think Mai is the only woman employed in the main office that doesn't work in the reception area.

It's even more amazing to see Mai tell her superiors off whenever they did something she thought was wrong because it just doesn't happen normally for employees to question their bosses, let alone juniors to scold their superiors.
