User ragnaroks (Score: 6/10):
I was browsing towards some old animes that I enjoyed a lot back than and came across to Tokimeki Memorial ~Only Love~ OVA. Tokimeki Memorial ~Only Love~ OVA provides nothing major towards the original series. The first episode is some kind of an extra episode between 17-18 introducing one new character along some new scenes. The second one is basicly a recap of the main storyline. The art, sound and character remained exactly the same. The enjoyment dropped a little and is no where as good as the series. I found it very interesting to watch the recap episode and telling me what the main storylineactually was since I forgotten it.
