User Gihiro (Score: 4/10):
I get that OVAs are supposed to be side story and doesn't have to relate to the main story. There was no actual progress or anything and it pretty boring. They had 3 episodes and all of them were not very exciting. I feel like the OVAs could have been much more exciting and adventurous. From the start of the anime we see typical cliché of the main character accidentally being a pervert to girls, when haven't this ever happened. This happened in the OVA also. It gets tired if the main character is misunderstood every episode. I rated the OVA 4 because it wasn't horrible butalso wasn't good, but not too good to be a 5. Just enough to get a 4, decent. Overall the OVA was boring.
