REC

Description

A 26-year-old salaryman, Matsumaru Fumihiko, asked Miss Tanaka from his work to watch a movie with him, but she didn't show up at the movie theater. As he is about to throw away the ticket, a 20-year-old, rookie voice actress named Onda Aka asked for the ticket. The two of them end up watching the movie together.

On their way home they notice that they live near each other. That night, Aka's apartment burns down and Matsumaru offers his help. She ends up living with him, but they have to keep it a secret to keep their jobs. What will happen to this relationship that is more than friends but less than lovers?

Note: Before volume 1 release, title was: REC ~~Yume no Kiroku~~ (●REC〜夢の記録〜).

If you really want to have a discussion, you should post this on the forums instead.

As for the manga. Well, it's not all that great, but it's not bad either. Not much development. But I'll wait for it to finish before going past volume 4.

Being Mature...

@ CassiusOS above:

NO , i don't really want a discussion, just want to give my opinion about what people think (like people can do in their comment, i know it's unusual), i don't say it great,either.The story does have character development (i think),probably you think it's not much but, well, enough for this genre, just read the it and see how they live and improve themselves)

...is what you need to go through this manga, people should quit whining about what the heroine did...

you think she is unfaithful? then do you understand the story ? about how a girl would feel when someone who supported her a lot in the past, and got severely injured to protect her ?more over he is the one that she admires...feeling of being in debt to someone could seriously confuse your mind, if you had any conscience...and she was deceived...although i think she is simple hearted and stupid when she thought that giving herself up to Yamada could help him relieved...but the fact that her personality development is what makes this manga interesting, however i hope she won't be more stupid in the future

...is that so hard to understand ? if so, then you probably think later on the manga kept on going with only light, easy chapters, like nothing ever happened but since it's a secret, what more do you expect to happen?it'd be absurd if the next chapter keep messing up things from the previous arc when it already ended,Also, from the beginning, dramatic romance is one of the properties of this manga, so the pace can change from lightly slow to something "dark" any time.

@zeds and someone else: Alas,i really wish people would stop watching manga just by looking at the pictures and got freaked out just because something "complicated" happened.
And about the male protagonist, you think he's an idiot, but i swear to god that his idiotic level is better than tons of main characters in other mangas at the same genres, and thank god, he is NOT pathetic (at least until now), he does have development in his personality, getting cooler with each chapter, i really expect he won't let me down.

The plot is average but potential, although the mangaka should really pay more attention to development for other characters, not just the main,the art is..well, good.

Recommend this manga to anyone above 18, whose brain and heart,normally, can afford dramatic situations, and who don't simply drop the whole story when something they don't expect happened (you guys really remind me of some people who dropped Gantz when Kei kurono died then came back to read it and think it's awesome 0_o)

Ch.24

by GodOfMadness

Rating: N/A

Dropped this manga after chapter 24. The girl is easy and stupid, she's one of the protagonists, that's why it sucks and she acts all cheery with the main male protagonist, I'm hoping chapter 24 backfires on her in future volumes and he gets another girlfriend, though I wouldn't know since I dropped it.

Why so serious?

I don't see why so many people are raging over Chapter 24 and bashing Aka for not being faithful. The character was guilty over the recently transpired events. Rather harsh to just suddenly drop a series due to ONE chapter.

And I can see why the mangaka went back to fun and light-hearted chapters later on. It's basically a change of mood. They can't just keep hanging onto that issue, can't they.

Ok i haven't read Rec in a long time and having some down time decided to take look and i saw that "that" scene was a big issue for ppl., ok its not as bad as some ppl. make it out to be. True that compared to the rest of the manga which is light and fun, it was dark and out of place

also yamada doesn't fully goes through with it, he cant lower him self to that lvl thank god but having read darker stuff *cough sundome *cough it merely got my attention. I feel the author was just using this as way to strengthen their relationship and probably got burned by his fans cause of it and went right back to his light and fun style. If anything consider this a caution the manga gets dark sometimes so for those light readers WATCH OUT! senin, mature, drama can be a nasty combo.

you know "what" can always happen

@zeds: life is like that >_> ...

but i wanted to drop the series not because what happened wasn't something good, but, because the mangaka kept on going with the next volume with light, easy go lucky episodic chapters ONLY, leaving things as they had never had happened, almost as if he was trying to make you forget it. (possibly an editors move, so i'm not sure who i have to flame > : ( )

i really can't recommend this manga to anyone, and it is NOT because it is A BAD read, but because i still can't shake the feeling "that" chapter left me XD

Is "that" how it is..

by Mercenary09

Rating: N/A

I had watched the anime, but the comment about the end of v03 and I decided to read through to see the fuss and it really puts a dramatic turn.. oh, really... (though I've read up to v05), but it really makes me wonder on..

Aka's actions and future actions. I feel she's not as faithful as her love she declares to him
(which she said once or so, but I guess it depends a bit on the translation.. ahh.. between daisuki/aishiteru/etc, but sometimes we see them both translated as the same.. but it somewhat makes me wonder on the more truthful meaning as the impact of actions would be hit harder the closer to someone you are. Oh well, easier to assume it was meant as love),
but maybe it's just my expectations of her being faithful since she loves him that I am forcing a bit

Then again.. there are some scenes where I think Matsumaru is being an idiot..

where he meets up with Tanaka(or is it Tanakura, whatever) and gets ****-faced drunk with no recollection.. and ends up naked next to her the next morning

more than once.. idiot 🙁 just not as intentional.

I loved it till "that"

by zeds

Rating: N/A

It was a nice manga, the type I like to read to chill, but -thank god- I sensed that something WRONG might happen, so I flipped it over... When I saw "THAT" I nearly threw up, after the first WTF moments I became enraged, and dropped the manga-I don't know if IT happened or not, but it was just too much... I couldn't read further... I hate it when mangakas do something like that in a "world" where something like this just doesn't fit in. This manga is not like Bitter Virgin, or the School Days/Elfenlied... anime- where you know what might happen. "THAT" just doesn't fit in this manga. Well, I love the manga till vol.3 nonetheless.

Yeah, the chapter was complete filler, and the manga writer probably ran out of ideas. I don't see how it's that big of a deal though.
