AniWorthIS: Infinite Stratos 2 - World Purge-hen
Introduction
While Ichika Orimura departs to visit Kuramochi Engineering's laboratories, an unidentified enemy hacks into IS Academy's core and cripples its systems. To fend off the attack and repair the damage, his older sister Chifuyu enlists Ichika's harem: Houki Shinonono, Cecilia Alcott, Huang Lingyin, Laura Bodewig, and Charlotte Dunois. Together, they utilize virtual reality to confront their opponents in IS Academy's network.
Unbeknownst to the girls, a piece of malware named "World Purge" is activated when they enter the digital realm. The program forces them into fabricated realities, where they each experience an ideal romantic version of their bond with Ichika. Once Ichika returns to IS Academy, it is up to him to rescue the five girls and wake them from this virtual reality.

A forgettable OVA of a forgettable work.
IS: Infinite Stratos 2 - World Purge-hen is exactly the kind of OVA you watch and forget a few days later. It follows all the problems I already had with the main series and, unfortunately, does practically nothing to change my opinion of the franchise.
The story is extremely simple and predictable. At no point did I feel that anything interesting was being built or any idea that really justified the existence of this special. The narrative serves only as an excuse to reunite the characters and create situations that mix romance, fanservice, and some action elements.
The problem is that none of this has much weight. The events seem disposable, the conflicts are superficial, and the episode ends without leaving any lasting impression. It's the kin…

Infinite Stratos, what happened to you? You used to be filled to the brim with potential for a great story with interesting characters and now, you end up doing this? Whatever. Let's just get this over with.
There are spoilers, but come on, do you really care?
Story
Ichika has to go to a special facility to get his IS unit checked out while the girls enter some sort of virtual world to counter a cyber-attack into the IS Academy's network (trust me, I'm just as confused as you are). Meanwhile, the girls that don't enter the cyber-world have to confront a military group that attacks the academy, again for ill-defined reasons (doesn't this count as an act of war or something?).
Something that really annoyed me from Infinite Stratos 2 is that the story played awfully, awfully, awfully coy w…

Warning possible Spoilers
What I really got from this is that it just felt like a need to really show off how sexy the girls in Ichika's harem can be and how it does that is by literally going into their minds.
When a program called World Purge affects the academy the girls have to go into a machine to shut it down however this requires the girls to conquer their ultimate desire.
For something that was only 44 minutes I thought it provided some entertainment even though it's mainly fanservice entertainment it was fine nonetheless.
I thought it was fun seeing how the girls imagined Ichika in their own way and I thought it was funny how Ichika spoke in the native language of each of the girls like with Laura he was German or with Cecillia he was British.
Despite the fanservice parts there…

Ichika is the most lucky guy in IS, well the only male exist in IS series.
IS series comeback with the new OVA World Purge-hen which caught my eyes and try to enjoy the show.
IS series never failed to deliver the harem theme with bit of action here and there.
Story Score: 4
The story is predictably enough. A hero comes to save the princess in danger and then finish all the enemies. There is significant root of the story but very unclear unless you watch it for the 2nd time. Some part of the story was not evenly distributed and a bit rush. IS Purge Hen revealed what was all the heroins true desire and their dreams( all about the main protagonist, Ichika). Well I'm fine with that but houki scene was too short and not fair. I'm not a fan of any female character of IS series but but im lookin…

Review of IS: Infinite Stratos 2 - World Purge-hen
This OVA is at least 50mins long and it is about 1.87 GB to download to watch with HD quality.
First of all, you should realize OVAs can do anything 'crazy' off topic from the original Infinite Stratos story. ( Crazy I mean well, obviously ecchi stuff and unbelievable things.) To me, IS: Purge hen is more for enternainment AND no connection whatsoever with IS since the second season of IS.
Story: 5 - I give it a five because there's no focus in the story, keeps changing stories due to the number of heroines in the IS.
Art: 10 - If this OVA deserves an outstanding ten, that means it had the same art as the last IS series. No problems at all! Enjoyable and no need to squint your eyes because such as "man this scene's art is done poorl…
