Arakawa Under the Bridge EP06


So Rec and Hoshi have their epic concert to determine who was qualified to love Nino. Rec pretty decimates poor Hoshi. Hoshi mentally breaks down from the defeat.



Later on, we discover the twins are trying to learn how to swim. Nino, as their instructor, seems to be quite the odd teacher. She doesn't offer any real directions, so Rec steps in and does his best. Realizing that the two won't swim with their iron helemets, Rec gives them Styrofoam to swim with. The kids were impressed by his directions and Rec seems to think he enjoys teaching.



While walking, Rec sees the twins managing the barrel. He finds the mayor is inside and the mayor and the twins all have colds. So, he helps them by explaining how and what they should do to make it go away as quickly as possible. 



Themes?
Well, I think we all can recall the situation where we are stuck working in a place that we don't want to be. But, we'll stick it out if the pay is good. Rec kind of seems to realize that dilemma. His idea of work is someone who breaks their back to get the job done no matter how miserable it is. So when he realizes he could find something he enjoys as a job he was a bit taken back. Pretty neat.

Last Remarks:
