I had a hard time deciding whether this was going to be one of the stinkers or would be okay, but I finally did wind up laughing at the wild explanation of the girls' strange behaviors. It was almost too weird to be funny, but let's just say Manaka's talent for sneaking a peek at girl's panties is taken to a whole new level--you've got to see it to believe it. Again, I think the key to a good Ichigo OVA is not taking the story too seriously, and they certainly didn't make that mistake here. No new girls, either! 6/06 Last updated Sunday, February 17 2008. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This final OVA episode is weird, and I mean reeeeeeally weeeeeeird. More weird than you could possibly imagine. It's not as good as Ichigo 100% OVA 1 or Ichigo 100% Special 2 which both are good dramas, but being a comedy this episode was still a pleasant surprise for me, and as such I can honestly recommend it. This is one of the best "Rent" ratings I've given for quite a while. This story (driven by the characters ;-) is incredibly funny if you know the TV series, mostly during the first half of this OVA. There's a slightly dragging part in the middle where you already get the pattern and see some of the jokes coming but you can still play a nice guessing game at this stage. The ending again is a nice surprise, and those who need their share of perversion will get it by then. I liked the music as well as the animation - Toujou alone would be a reason to watch this episode at least once. But after that first pass (Episode Story: 10) the surprise and most of the fun might be over (Story: 6), so I wouldn't give a "Buy" recommendation due to probably low rewatchability. Just remember: You can expect to see more ichigo pantsu than you would ever hope for! Note that this story has specifically been written for the OVA, it isn't a part of the original manga, and its tone is much lighter than the tone of the later parts of the manga.

Why did I rate it a rent? Because this isn't how Ichigo should finish out it's run. Well the manga run wasn't all that great but it has a real ending. This is just filler. Last updated Wednesday, December 07 2005. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
