With the way guys make out so well when it comes to Valentine’s Day, I do like that they get to deal with White Day and return the favor when you get down to it. It is a problem for Atsushi though since he ended up with so many chocolates back on Valentine’s and that means he has to do a heck of a lot in return. Luckily, he’s got Atsumi to help and the two of them are able to put together a number of good looking and appealing cookie bags for the girls. The one girl he really wants to make sure is taken care of though is Hina as he goes the extra distance to get her a gift. Not that he thinks it through in a way as it’s not something that a girl (or at least Hina) would want or even recognize what it is. On the positive side, Atsushi didn’t get picked up for trying to bribe girls for sweets in the streets this time around.
In Summary:
In a way, Recorder & Randsell keeps coming down to a whole lot of “stuff happens” but there’s no real depth to it. And that’s fine with a short form series like this. The problem is that since it’s supposed to be a comedy as well and a lot of that just falls flat. There are cute moments here, such as with Atsushi’s friends as they try to steal his sweets and as his teacher throws her chest around, but for the most part it’s just something that washes over you with little impact. Which is unfortunate since they could do some biting stuff here with the problems that the two characters face. But it’s just such a weak and milquetoast kind of series that it’s hard to see what the appeal is supposed to be. And I’ve yet to really find anyone who is a fan of it rather than just going through the motions in watching it.
