I Have a Crush at Work

Masugu Tateishi and Yui Mitsuya are coworkers who quietly fall for each other while working side by side at the office. He’s the modest, helpful type who can’t help doing little favors, and she’s got a sweet, expressive energy that makes him blush. They’ve started a secret romance and laugh, steal glances, and sneak touches between meetings, trying to keep everything professional for their colleagues' sake. The show follows their day-to-day efforts to hide the relationship, the small mishaps that nearly reveal them, and the awkward, funny moments that come from trying to act normal when you’re smitten. In the office.

Created by Akamaru Enomoto and Masahiro Yokotani, the 2025 animated comedy premiered as a television anime. The main voice cast includes Seiichiro Yamashita, Yume Miyamoto, Shizuka Itoh, Reiou Tsuchida, and You Taichi, bringing lively performances to the office ensemble.

Early audience response has been positive, the series holds a 7.4/10 average from a small number of votes. Fans and some reviewers single out the leads' chemistry and timing, praising the voice performances and the show's light, awkward humor around workplace romance, and relatable daily mishaps.

Though new, it’s sparked fan art and online threads among fans of romantic anime, especially those who like office-set romances. Short clips of awkward encounters and sweet moments circulate on social media, and niche communities have grouped it among seasonal guilty pleasures, with reaction videos and comments highlighting favorite episodes.

As of now, the series hasn't earned major awards or nominations, though its steady fanbase and positive word of mouth could help it gain seasonal anime awards or popularity-driven honors in fan polls. If momentum grows, it may get attention in year-end lists and community-voted categories.
