| this was so perfect *-* |

| Very good anime but I have one complaint. The weak and easily influenced character of Matsumaru. So he basically was feeling down, and trying to destroy their relationship with mean lines just because he wasn't doing well in work? Aka did nothing at fault, she only missed the dinner time. If it wasn't for the manger imo they would have departed their ways long ago. Other than that, pretty good short, made me smile several times |
| Matsumaru acted like the loser mc from sakurasou in these last 2 eps, so annoying. I guess it was kind of this girl's fault as opposed to shiina who was autistic. Cheesy and predictable but short and sweet. Not baddd. |
| I came back to this anime again while drinking sake just today after more than a year since I first saw it :) and I still love this anime! |
| (づ￣ ³￣)づ ちゅっ ちゅっ キス (´｡✪ω✪｡｀) I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;) |
| Realistic episode indeed. Did Matsu had sex right after he confessed? If he did, he is the worst!, LOL Overall nice journey from beginning to end. Episode: 3.3/5 Overall: 8/10 |
 |
| Good ending! It was a bit too much fights/dramas even for me, but It was an interesting take on Romance anime |
| I love it. Watched Rec in one session, and after finishing the last episode, I started smiling and laughing (couldn't stop giggling for minutes), they did something right. overall: 9/10 ep9: 5 |
| Really good anime, wish it was longer. I gave it a 8/10, could have been higher if it was longer. |
|
| The story was pretty mature. This director is something else. |
| And still, Bill will live on. He will befriend the next inhabitants of the earth, beings of light who revere him as a god. And Bill will outlive them all... for millions and millions of years...exploring, learning, living, until the earth is swallowed beneath his feet. Until the sun is long since gone. Until time loses all meaning and the moment comes that he knows only the positions of the stars and sees them whether his eyes are closed or open. Until he forgets his name and the place where he'd once come from. He lives and he lives until all of the lights go out. |
| Whelp alot happend in 9 10 minutes long episodes, it was decent I guess. Didn't enjoy it as much as I should have surprisingly but it wasn't bad by any means. 6/10 |

| Waw the last reply is from June last year, so It might be really late. Actually I found Rec after a random search through MAL in a boring afternoon (it's really random until I forgot what I really search before found it). The picture really caught my interest so I tried to search for the video. And that's it, I watched it, 12 years after premier The story is excellent. They draws the romance and conflict between Matsumaru and Aka very well. The only and only minus is.... episode count. Yes, I don't mind about 15 minutes duration, but why only 9 episode ? Ahh never mind, I still give it 10/10 (Rec really fill my boring afternoon after all LOL) |
"Happy Ramadhan for those who celebrate it. I hope this year's Ramadhan bring goodness for you life" -(TsuzukuHunter 2018) |
| What a beatiful episode. 5/5 Overall 8.2/10 |
| Good ending for a good show |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
aleasaleas said: Don't read the manga. You were warned lol. Lol yeah knowing what happens later on and the fact that a third of it isn't even translated, I think I'm ok with just this. |

| All's well that ends well. I quite enjoyed the bit where everyone starts sharing their stories of failures & success to cheer Matsumaru up. It's not something that I earnestly appreciated until the past couple of years - that many people who are successful have experienced failure more times than the ones who gave up. Overall, Rec turned out to be a nice treat. Only thing I wasn't really fond of was the hookup in the first episode, as it really didn't add much to the relationship dynamic between Aka & Matsumaru besides some initially awkward tension. Other than that, it was relatively smooth sailing and I enjoyed cruising along with this semi-episode format. 6.5/10 |
 |
| I thought I was going to hate this anime, but it was better than I expected. It was entertaining enough for a watch through, though nothing spectacular. It would have dragged on if it was as short as it was, so the shorter length and amount of episodes did it good. 5/10 |
 |
| this anime was really ahead of its time now with all the slave romance anime |
| That anime production team was pretty cool for letting them join in on their little celebration party. It's also sweet how they managed to reconcile while appearing like strangers (or work acquaintances at best) up until the hug |
