Synopsis

Two OVA episodes featuring additional stories. Episode 0: Ritsu and Takano used to date back in high school, but broke up due to a misunderstanding. This is that story. Episode 12.5: Hatori and Chiaki go to visit the latter's family. It's really awkward in many, many ways.

Audience Consensus

The OVA is considered underwhelming compared to the movie. The first episode's flashback is enjoyed, while the second is seen as mediocre. Overall, the stories feel incomplete and leave the audience wanting more.

Strengths

  • The first OVA episode, focusing on the high school days of Ritsu and Takano, is adorable and sweet.
  • The high school flashback scenes are fantastic.

Weaknesses

  • The stories feel incomplete and lacking.
  • The second OVA episode is mediocre, not boring but not interesting either.
  • The OVA format doesn't allow for a successful back-and-forth between timelines.
