Aoi Tokura is having a rough day. He’s used to being mistaken for a girl, but it’s even worse when a captivating stranger on the train calls him a creeper for staring a little too long. Aoi’s soaked by a sudden rainstorm and takes shelter at Rainy Color, a cozy café where the warmth of the staff compliments the sweet hot cocoa he’s served. When he falls into a job at the café he feels like things are finally looking up— until Keiichi Iwase, the man he couldn’t help but stare at on the train, shows up. Did this day just get worse, or better


My review!!!

So this one is going to be a bit confusing so please bear with me on it...

When I first started looking this one up I found a bunch of them and they were all about 2 minutes long... It almost seemed to make no sense... But here are the links I found to all the different shows...

The Anime can be watched here...

So as you can see I found what I believe are all the seasons of this little gem. In all of them the episodes are only 2 minutes long. This means it's really 1 1/2 minutes long because the intro is about 30 seconds long. I felt like I was getting snippets of a show and not a real show. For some this might be preferred though so I can't say it's a bad thing.

Just for fun let's look at the cast images from some of the other seasons. The top image is season 1 and 2 I think... and then I found these...


I think this one is from season three. It uses the same base cast but adds a few new faces....

I didn't watch any of this one but it's probably along the same lines as the first two seasons. 

Each episode is also about two minutes long.

Whoever thought up this show was a genius in my opinion! It's so simple that it became complicated... Right???




I mean.... think about it... they are making a killing off  a show that runs for only a few minutes where others have to come up with a full half hour of content just to make a show!

Anyhow... I believe this picture is from season four. I watches one or two episodes of it before I realized it wasn't season one.

It's based in Hawaii and is really similar to the other seasons. for example, it's also 2 minute long episodes And the owner is also the owner from the other seasons.


Lets finish off with the final image I found.... This is the first time I have seen a female cast of characters! It made me happy!

So that's what we have for the pictures... shall we now rate the shows?

On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being a "Perfect-Must-Watch" rating I give this...

Don't get me wrong I liked what I saw. It just isn't for me... The short clips left me feeling like I was always missing something. But like I said earlier... This may be exactly what you are looking for. You should check it out.

I have to add the fact that it has to be at least decent because it ended up with 5 seasons. I know this was supposed to be about the first season but I felt it was better to just cover them all! A side note for you is that a lot of times the name of the show "Rainy Cocoa" gets confused with he name of the cafe "Rainy Color". I know I got confused at first so I thought I'd tell you what one was what! Hope that tidbit helped you! and now I am done!

As always... Thanx for reading my review!
Hope you have a colorful and fun day!!!
