I just watched the first episode of Recorder and Randsell. The experience was underwhelming. The anime is based on a 4-panel gag manga; as such, it does not lend itself well to an anime adaptation. The "story" is about a boy who looks to be an adult, and a high school girl who looks like a child. None of this is explained within the show itself, however, so if I had not read the synopsis I would have been completely lost as to why a grown man was heading off to kindergarten.
The first episode was only 3 minutes long, but I did not laugh once during those three minutes. An anime series based on a gag manga that does not make the viewers laugh is a failure in my book.
that sounds pretty strange. . .
