Reviews:

  • User Irememberlove (Score: 6/10):
    There's not much to say, as these are a collection of various shorts. These give some nice background for some characters, or just some nice bonus content. Best watched as part of the regular series, if you can find the watch order for that. Otherwise, they’re only a few minutes, so if you’ve made it this far, might as well give them a try. One of them is an actual in person concert, which was interesting but felt out of place compared to the other entries. It really is a scattershot of little things, like following Veffie around for some stuff, or looking in to seewhat Millia does as the mayor.
