Hmm, I'm not sure what to think about this anime yet. Although, the plot is showing the life of Aka and her seiyu training does interest me plus she is cute with a whacking sense of humor.

I would not say that these characters "know" each other to any fair extent, and I would not consider any of their interactions particularly close. She sees a movie and has a beer with him because he's just so pathetic pining after the accountant, and they tell each other what they do for a living. He stomps on her ambition a bit, and they walk home to discover they're neigbors. This isn't close, intimate conversation. This is a very light chat with a random acquaintance. These two are scarcely more than strangers. That's why I find the name thing so strange. Even if they were only kissing, very few things could kill a mood faster than this sort of sudden reminder that they are complete strangers.

Its a pretty aggresive thing for a girl to do, so she had probably already decided that she liked him for some reason or another. Sure, he was clumsy and awkward- but clearly he gave off a friendly and even protective vibe, which she clearly liked. Quote:

Anyway to see if its still being serialized in Sunday GX magazine (which is a magazine for young men) I had to check the site, but its not listed in the current issue of Sunday GX could it be that volume 5 of REC (released tomorrow) is the last volume of REC manga? Edit: Ahh also Yay Yay the first chapter of the manga got scanlated by Yanime group Torrent available here: Manganews.

And I agree about Sakai Kanako. I think I liked her voice in this episode even more than in the previous ones. Her nickname is "Kana-hime" (Princess Kana), and that might turn out to be a good description of her place in the voice-acting world, in a while.

Hehe, its more like I look at the preaty pictures of the manga, I say the mangaka gets better at drawing through the volumes. Oh and thanks for the heads up on the translated chap neosam, now I can put words to the pictures. |

Well I've just watched through the first two episodes and it was very enjoyable. I was basically hooked after episode 1 as it is my kind of anime really(or so it seems from the first two episodes). Glad to hear that there is a possibility of more than just the 9 episodes that have been announced so far. My initial reaction after watching the first episode was "hmm..that was good, just wish it was a bit longer". Personally I'd have settled for a 24 minute 13 episode series, however the multiple seasons route is not a bad alternative if it does happen.
Spoiler:
Didn't realize Sakai Kanako had a role in Magikano. I thought this was her first anime, nevertheless I was impressed. She's handled the role really well IMO. Look forward to hearing more of her work in the future |

I was kinda disapointed with episode 2, I though the development was going to be faster; as in the 1st episode. This weeks episode probably would have been a better 30 minute episode with more development. Hopefully, the rest of the series will use the same formula found in episode 1. I really liked the drama in the 1st episode.

Hehe, I actually kind of enjoyed ep 3. Short but good in general - I really got an idea of the play-it-by-ear kind of life both of them lead. I liked the bit where Matsumaru was doing work and was so obsessed with it that he kept typing and typing and typing as the doorbell rang. It's the first time he's lived with someone else as an adult so it felt weird for him to say "Okaeri" and "Itterasshai" and so on... nice touch.
Also Matsumaru's High School Memory is funny. Also, is it me or did the OP change very slightly, I don't remember seeing Aka wearing that dress Audrey Hepburn wore in My Fair Lady in the OP before. Maybe I'm just blind. Anyway, I like Aka's attitude towards Matsumaru - she's nice to him and brings him stuff and treats him respectfully since, after all, she's greatly indebted to him, but she does not submit to him or act all dependent and whatnot. She doesn't fall for his advances this time

I get the feeling she's playing hard to get now. Matsumaru is not smooth enough to bypass her defenses, so she'll probably keep teasing then refusing him like that for most of the series. (i hope I'm wrong though... i really feel sorry for the guy. Doing all that romantic stuff, sleeping inches away from her, then not allowed to touch.) |
