    Reviews:

    • User Pageplant (Score: 6/10):
      It's weird that the OVA completely centered on Yuria's POV feels less about Yuria than her presence in the original series. First things first, Yuriko Ishida is bad as Yuria and can't hold a candle to Yuriko Yamamoto. She can barely show any emotion at all with her voice. Yuria is also portrayed as a brunette instead of a ginger and I don't know why. In the end, almost every other character than Yuria feels more insteresting than her and the additions to the original story are uninteresting at best and dumb at worst. For some reason, a dog called Toby is introduced and he is oneof the main characters, because somebody thought that's a good idea and I don't really agree with that.nnStill, if you are a fan of the series, this is a watchable OVA and you will enjoy it, but don't expect anything more than a mediocre filler. 6/10!
