Housekishou Richard-shi no Nazo Kantei (The Case Files of Jeweler Richard)

The Case files of Jeweler Richard is a lovely slice of life anime in the 2019/2020 winter collection.

With themes like justice, friendship and love, this anime not only entertains, but invites you to learn more about the world of precious stones and jewels.



Like its name implies, this anime is about a young English Jeweler who goes by the name Richard Ranashinha de Vulpian, who runs a jewelry business in Japan, however, Richard is sometimes bullied due to his handsome face.



It is during one such instance that he meets the honest and justice loving Nakata Seigi. 

After doing business with Seigi, Richard decides to take him on as a worker to do odds and ends at his shop, and thus begins their story together.



Despite his love of sweets, Richard is more mature, serious and skeptical when compared to the talkative and inquisitive college student Seigi. Their unique personalities and melding of cultures adds a tasteful depth to the anime.



However, both characters were able to learn a lot from each other which helped their relationship to thrive.

The challenges that these two encounter not only bring them closer together but helps the straightforward Seigi learn more about this mysterious Englishman he has encountered, and as the episodes go on, Richard's story brings to light not only his past but why he seems to be keeping Seigi at arms length.



The general aura of the anime makes it seem more suited for a mature audience, but of course, it was clean through and through so anyone willing could enjoy it.
There were parts of the dialogue that I thought were confusing though.

Do you want to know what secrets the young and handsome Englishman Richard hides behind his somber smile, and the true nature of the industry breeding the precious stones he sells? Watch the Case Files of Jeweler Richard and unravel his mystery today!
