    Synopsis:

    Set against the backdrop of a vibrant academic world, this anime centers on the Karuta Club's preparations for the annual cultural festival. With their experienced Team Captain temporarily away, the team finds itself navigating shifting dynamics and personal aspirations. First-year student Sumire Hanano sees this as an opportunity to pursue a long-held desire: to capture the attention of her teammate, Taichi Mashima. Driven by a specific plan involving a theatrical adaptation of *The Tale of Genji*, she hopes to orchestrate a pivotal moment. The story explores themes of ambition, interpersonal connection, and the delicate balance between personal dreams and team goals, offering a nuanced look at youthful relationships within a structured environment.

      Well to start up with I guess the OVA didn't live up to the expectations that we generally have with Chihayafuru but all in all it was kinda good. The OVA basically focuses on Sumire's love for Taichi and her trying to snatch him from our beloved Chihaya. Chihaya has almost no screentime so you can guess that there is no Karuta played either. The good parts of the OVA were that it had a good touch of comedy and the art was beautiful. The ending was kinda hilarious too. Lastly I would like to say that if you are watching the OVA for seeing chihayain action don't. The OVA is a comedy and a bit of romance.nnNOTE: Well I like Chihaya and Arata as a couple better. :)

      There are very few OVAs that actually have a real plot and unfortunately this is not one of them. Almost all school anime OVAs will be either beach or school event, with this one being the latter - the school culture festival in this case (sorry, no fanservice). Basically, as the club discusses what to present in the culture festival, Hanano pushes for performing a stage play, hoping to act in a romantic scene with Mashima, but things don't go exactly how she wants. There you go, the entire plot in a single sentence. The OVA adds nothing to the actual plot so if you're not the typeof person who enjoys these fillers, you might as well just skip to the third season.nnSound and art are good but note that as far as I know the episode was only released on DVD, so no HD version is available.

      I don't really know how to review this OVA to be honest. It was a really fun experience to watch these characters have an off day and kind of joke around outside of the tense matches we see them in during the main series. Obviously, as an OVA, the quality isn't as high-caliber since this is just meant to be a side-story. However, I do think the little character developments for Taichi regarding Chihaya and Hanano were nice. It was a nice highlight for that small love triangle that sort of exists between those three. It wasn't something huge, but it was there, and Iliked that. nnOther than that, the humor in this episode is very Chihayafuru, so if you enjoyed the main series' comedic bits, then you'll enjoy this episode. Like I said, it was fun to hang out with this characters in a completely comedic way rather than the drama that we get in the anime. We don't come to OVA episodes for quality, we come to have fun, and you certainly will with this episode.
