Synopsis
A short OVA that was bundled with the limited edition of the eleventh volume of the manga.
Audience Consensus
The Mirai Nikki OVA is largely viewed as a promotional trailer rather than a substantial addition to the series. While some appreciate it as a preview and a faithful adaptation of the manga scenes, many find it too rushed and confusing for those unfamiliar with the source material. Ultimately, it's considered inessential viewing, mainly serving as a taster for the main TV series.
Strengths
- Faithful adaptation of manga scenes.
- Good animation quality, on par with other popular series.
- Serves as a useful preview for those unfamiliar with the series.
Weaknesses
- Rushed pacing and lack of context make it confusing for newcomers.
- More of a trailer than a standalone OVA.
- Doesn't add anything new to the story for existing fans.
- Some found the voices and music unfitting.
