First Impressions: Recorder to Randoseru

Again, these posts wouldn't be so painful to write if these series just weren't so damn bad.

Unfortunately, they are.

Fuck me.

seems legit

Somewhere in Japan (the nation of weird ideas since the beginning of time), a prospective author sat down. She needed an idea. She wrote down some popular series and their themes and thought of reasons as to why they had worked.

She had no fucking clue.

She was also too lazy to think about what could actually make a good series.

So she turned to her hobo cap. Ripping up an A4 piece of paper into about 16 or so smaller bits, the excited artistic rebel wrote down the shittiest and most cliched the most extreme things she could think of at the moment. Like "sharks", or "laser beams", or "sharks with laser beams on their heads"."Batman" was an obvious choice for one of the slips. "Hentai" was written on at least 4 of the slips.

Praying to the muses for inspiration and luck, the radical woman of literature threw the slips into her hobo hat. She then drew four slips of paper to give herself an initial premise.

In order, they were: "tall and mature/adult-looking", "elementary school kid", "lolis", and "high school girl".

Scratching her head, the wacky manga artist slowly began to sketch the outlines of what would become a series that would flabbergast sane people for generations to come.

And thus...Recorder to Randoseru was born.

tl;dr not enough loli jokes based around high school girl, too many awkward pedo jokes based around elementary school kid. gtfo.

Status: Dropped. There are some premises that shouldn't be touched, if only just to stay within reasonable biological boundaries.
