Some context is necessary before diving into the review proper. This is a 3 episode OVA adaptation of a multi-route visual novel, with each of the three episodes covering one route from the game. The characters are the same each time, but each episode is standalone and there is no continuity between them by design.
From that preamble, you can probably guess the main issue with this series, right? The OVAs lop off a large chunk of the game's story (released as a separate game called Memories Off Pure) and have to condense hours worth of content in each route to a crisp 30 minutes that also includes all the necessary exposition that was skipped over. At best, we're getting a survey of each route, and it's difficult to be invested in Tomoya's relationship with each girl in such a short perio…

So as a romance anime lover this was pretty bad. Each episodes was hard to follow. The MC and his romances were weak or strangely rushed. Then the past girlfriend trying to assist the MC with his "new" romances were also cringy and strange. I understand each episode were separate stories (or I hope they were) so it doesnt really pertain to one another. Even so it was hard to follow and truly understand.
Story: weak, hard to follow, and not very intresting. It had some intresting moments though.
Art: older style, which I dont mind, but could be better used with some scenes becoming 16fps or something like a stop motion.
Sound: nothing special
Characters: MC is strange a lot of times, and the girls arent very special but they are different with interesting connections.
Enjoyment: it was…

This series absolutely epitomizes sub par quality.
Reading the synopsis I assumed "hey, this might actually be a decent watch given that it is 3 episodes and I just want something quick to watch out of the corner of my eye while I do other stuff."
Yeah, no. the series was utterly cliche, but in fairness I did kind of expect that.
The art? Looked like something out of a low budget adult animated series.
The sound? Honestly, that was probably the best bit out of the whole thing, I quite enjoyed the music. Though I usually enjoy the music in every series simply because I enjoy music.
Character development. Oh. HERE we go. It's 3 episodes long. Character development? No such thing. The first episode was basically 12 episodes of a similar romance series crammed into one rushed low quali…

This anime was kind of boring the music was teribble it sounded like it was skipping.. the story is bout a guy who girlfriend dies in a car accident and how he blames himself for her death because he asked her to come and pick him up and so the story is bout how he over comes this by meeting gurls that all have some of her traits

Ok so straight to the review. This anime really sucks. I am a major romance anime lover and if you have seen any anime like Bokura ga Ita, Itazura na Kiss, Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien, or even OVAs like Ajimu or Iriya no Sora you will hate this. The story was confusing and it was terrible.
Story:
Overall it was bad. Seems like there was no new ideas put into it. They stuffed the drama into this anime like it was nothing. The story went at a pace 10x faster than anything I have seen before. Also the relationships between the main character and the girls is really rushed. VERY CLICHE.
Art:
Art is decent not very good art quality but its worse than probably 80% of the other anime out there released in 2003 and later.
Sound:
Didn't pay attention so I guess that means it was just background music wi…
