Synopsis

Making her grand return from space, Jashin-chan still seeks to kill Yurine Hanazono to get back into Hell. However, the attempted murder is put on hold when Yurine drags her out to the beach alongside the rest of her friends. Wasting valuable planning time, Jashin-chan instead finds herself spending the day doing what her summoner and her good friends do: swimming in the ocean, eating shaved ice, fighting a Kraken, and having a barbecue.

The audience generally enjoyed the OVA episode, especially if they were fans of the original series. The episode provides a fun, lighthearted experience with surprisingly well-animated fight scenes and a decent storyline. While it relies on some common tropes, it ultimately delivers a satisfying conclusion.
