History Manga / RecorderAndRandsell

%%* GagBoobs: Moriyama-sensei.

* ChristmasCake: Miura, one of the female officers, is in her 30's, and fits the bill.

* WastedBeauty: Played for laughs with Atsushi, who looks like a handsome young man, but is actually [[YoungerThanTheyLook an elementary school kid]] who often acts [[KiddieKid even younger than his chronological age]]. Many times, older girls who take interest in the handsome guy immediately gets creeped out and run away when Atsushi starts behaving childishly.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: While Atsumi and Say are criticizing Yoshioka's lolicon habits, Sayo makes a point of inserting herself into the conversation, saying that she's not like him after mentioning that a person's looks matter more than her actual age (probably referring to both the Miyagawa siblings, since she loves how cute Atsumi is and still has a crush on Atsushi despite knowing how old he is).

A second season ran later in 2012, and a third season aired as a part of the Summer2013Anime season. The manga's fourth volume came packaged with two [=OVAs=] as well, and an unaired 13th episode came with ''Mi'''s boxed set.

* TheFaceless: Take-nii, who has BlindingBangs.

* MistakenForPedophile: Poor Atsushi constantly suffers from this thanks to [[YoungerThanTheyLook looking a lot older than he really is]], as confirmed via {{Word of God}}, and especially since he has a crush on a girl his age. At least three of the policewomen that were wary of his presence finally figured it out.
