Actually this is a very good OVA.
On same level as the original series (Kakyuusei 1999) and in some ways maybe even better.
I liked this OVA even more than original series.
I'll start by saying that this is a great romance anime. If you want a beautiful, non-clichéd romance - then this is the perfect choice.

Miko is very spacy and airheaded in the 1999 adaptation but in this one, she's kinda seem smarter(?) which is not really supposed to be her defining trait. Ai is a lot more shy in the 1999 adaptation but in this one, she's to…

Fist off, I would like to take a bit to say, I am not a fan of this franchise, I have never played the games and I have not watched the TV Series, which I have heard is much better than this.
Anyhow, on the the actual review. This is the first, of many, attempts by Pink Pineapple to adapt the adult video game franchise Kakyuusei into a non-hentai format, and the second attempt over all, the first being a hentai film from a couple years beforehand. Pink Pineapple is primarily a hentai anime producer, so I believe their motivation was probably that they thought the story of this franchise would fit well into the love triangle/herem anime sub-genre that was gaining popularity at the time and they wanted a piece of that pie.
This anime it's self makes the idea that this is just a quick cash i…
