User yoshihiro56 (Score: 8/10):
This ova is a lot better than it's prequel. Both are different stories though. This one is basically frankestein all over again. A scientist related to Dr. Frankstein creates a better version of the monster frankestein makes. Then our main girl Rem is able to go into dreams so the doctor asks Rem to go into his creation's dreams and some crazy stuff happens. This is a unique anime that i found myself enjoying regardless of the low reviews. It has action, comedy, and some heartwarming parts all crammed into 50 minutes. It does it well though. It for sure won't be a waste of50 minutes. But beware it has gory violence and some nudity.
