As much as I enjoyed the series, I figured I'd enjoy this OVA as well.

Art, Animation and Character Design
As OVA's go, usually they improve a bit on the art and animation side as opposed to their series counterparts. This one was no exception. The art and animation was marginally improved. Character designs were the same but good lord, Mizuho's mother looks hot!! Well, for an anime character that is.

Music
The OP was slightly improved as well. It was a bearable piece... though still not my flavor.

Series and Episode Series
The plot was simple and linear. Afterall, it's a single OVA that was nothing more than a simple entertainment piece for the fans of the series. With that said, there was plenty of ecchi moments and... well, not much laughter... but a few snickers instead.

Overall, it was marginally entertaining and really didn't have much for me as far as humor. A bit disappointed since I was sorta expecting something on the line of entertainment the series brought.

Avoid 7 7 6 7 4 Ggultra2764 [series:525#1552]
Okay, now this was a waste of my time. The makers chose to make this OAV an erotic comedy with the uncertainty of Kei and Mizuho consumating their relationship as an excuse to get some raunchiness thrown in, especially with the return of Maho and Hatsuho in the mix. Plotwise, there's nothing new this OAV has to contribute to the series. Combine this with lower-quality artwork compared to the TV series and it's pretty obvious this is a big waste of time to watch.

If you enjoyed the focus on relationship developments that the TV series had, then please avoid this OAV at all costs. You will only be dumbfounded in wondering why this garbage is a part of the series.

Avoid 7 7 3 6 2 2 Devil Doll [series:525#752]
[Score: 41%]
The series narrowly missed the "Avoid" rating - the OVA easily managed to get it.
I don't understand why people find dating based on blackmail, kidnapping, forced bondage, jokes about sexual devices, embarrassing 'chance' meetings between acquaintances in a love hotel and an UFO appearing to distract people from noticing something scandalous funny.
This product is on par with Green Green Erolutions, with both of its makers apparently thinking "okay, we sold the series, then a softcore OVA will find its audience as well". Blah.

Buy 8 8 7 8 7 Peter Hentai [series:525#758]
Twelve episodes of Onegai Teacher weren't quite enough, so we have this 1-episode OAV sequel. Mainly, this story is about Mizuho's mother setting up a romantic encounter between Mizuho and Kei at a love hotel. So it is pretty funny and I liked seeing Mizuho and Kei get together. However, I can understand why that scene would put people off.

My main complaint is with the character design. Everyone looks jarringly different from their TV counterparts, though you can recognize everyone. However, I did get used to it. If you are a fan of Onegai Teacher, you'll want to get this as well.

Rent 7 7 7 9 7 AstroNerdBoy [series:525#436]
Onegai Teacher was a popular series, so it was only natural that they should create a sequel OAV episode. Sadly, there are several weak points that seem to plague OAV's.

Storywise, our happily married couple are still going, though Kei wonders if they are going in the wrong direction. To complicate matters, Mizuho's mother and sister pop in for an unexpected visit and mom is coming on strong to Kei. Then the sister starts coming on to Kei, getting him to take her out on a date. Finally, Mizuho's mom takes Kei to a romantic hotel just outside of town (in the country side) for what appears to be her attempt to have sex with him. Mizuho is determined to put a stop to this and finally manages to track them down. Beaming into the room, she finds herself materialized in the air above a bound Kei on a bed. Falling on him, they then engage in marital relations while Mizuho's mother and sister look over a script. Apparently, they planned the whole event.

I didn't really know how to rate this, but if you are a fan of Onegai Teacher, you will want to see this. The art has been changed somewhat dramatically and I did not like it as much as the original. The supporting high school cast is only good for cameo roles.

The series took a serious ecchi turn after Mizuho finally gets with Kei at the hotel. We are shown Kei mounting Mizuho and I'm sorry but that was not called for. But as is typical of OAV's, the Japanese feel that they have to push the boundries of good taste and insert lots of fan-service or other ecchi elements. What made Onegai Teacher a good series wasn't the otaku (nerd) fantasy of scoring with the hot teacher. It was the richness of the characters combined with the serious look at the trials of married life. Seeing Muzho's mom attempt to seduce Kei was bad enough without seeing him start to bang his wife.

Bottom line: There are good elements to this OAV and fans of the series will want to check it out. However, beware of the ecchi elements that have been forced into the mix as well as the degraded art.
