I did like the series personally (despite having an easier time finding the hentai than the ONA series, seriously). Some major bad thingsĪbout the series however: microphone peaking quite a bit (Reo mostly), the volume mastery is par at best (too quiet at times and too loud at others-the VA's faults), and the animation/art is just basic visual novel assets (of course, imagination helps). As for characters, Reo's a little generically shy/tsundere, but Mai's teasing of Reo is great especially in the later episodes. The linearity of the story made me enjoy the series a lot more than if it wasn't. The story is pretty linear, and of course, there's no filler (it's an ONA about a visual novel and only 6 to 10-ish minutes each episode). Ahem, this ONA series tells a story about a couple, Reo and Mai, and their regular time together. I'm quite surprised that this is rated as well rated as it is on MAL. Look it up on YouTube if you’re bored and have nothing better to do. The repetition in dialogue, the tsundere aspects of Reo (becoming angry and embarrassed) and her obliviousness to mobile phones gets rather tedious at some point, but since the episodes are so short (5-10 minutes), you won’t waste much of your time. Overall this show is cute and made me smile every now and then, but it’s fairly skippable. The music for the 10 second opening and closing got on my nerve at some point since you hear it twice per episode and I found myself skipping it more often than not. Music is really nothing special, it serves its purpose and fits the tone, but it’s not really memorable and most of the time it just plays unnoticeable in the background. This is rather common for a visual novel, since they only have a limited amount of expressions, but still, on more than one occasion I just thought they could have used a more fitting picture. Voice-acting is pretty good too, at least for what I can tell as a non-Japanese person, though the facial expressions don’t always seem to match up.

Luckily, the backgrounds and character models are quite detailed and colorful and overall very nice to look at. Like I said, this is more of a visual novel than an animated show and really only consists of a background with the characters in the foreground, who occasionally switch poses and facial expressions. This is really nothing more than a pretty bland, though cute, continuation of a story about two girls in love.Īnimation is literally non-existent. So, yeah, don't expect a deep and complicated story with lots of character development. This ONA would have been the perfect opportunity to expand on their relationship and go into more detail about what they like about each other, but alas, conversations about mobile phones and a cute, embarrassed Reo it is. The focus of that show was more showing off THAT they were in love instead of why and it does an excellent job at that. This is never really explained in the OVA either, but the difference is that they just started a relationship there and were still new and inexperienced with lesbianism. Seriously, the girls bicker so much that I started wondering why exactly they love each other. We follow them during their daily life as a couple with a plot that consists mostly of the two girls talking about mobile phones and them going out to buy one for Reo, since she hasn’t had one since she was three and therefore barely knows anything about them.Ĭonversations are mostly about the wondrous things a phone can do, followed by an oblivious response from Reo, a teasing response from Mai, followed by Reo becoming embarrassed or angry, ending in Mai hugging Reo because she finds Reo so incredibly cute, making Reo even more embarrassed and angry. Yeah, that isn’t a whole lot, but that is really all I can say about them, based on this show. The characters Reo Kawamura, a very tsundere, second year high school student, and Mai Sawaguchi, a classmate of Reo and a teaser. I recommend playing the novel or at least watching the OVA first before starting this, so that you understand how the relationship of the main characters work. The story is a sequel to the visual novel “Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke wo: Anata to Koibito Tsunagi”, better known for the highly recommended hentai adaptation of the same name. This is more of a fully voice-acted visual novel without anything interactive that you watch someone else play, if that makes any sense. I’m not entirely sure why this show is registered here on MAL, since it’s not really an anime or even animation to begin with.
