The main objective of this specific special/OVA is to fill in the gaps that the main show never covers. This structure of this special is small pieces of story cut into small chunks. These chunks of story are separated into certain time frames throughout the show. This includes things like: Before the concert, after the moon fragment was stopped, etc. The 2 episodes of this special are meant to cover before the show and after the show. Episode 1 takes place during and right after season 1. Episode 2 takes place during and right after season 2. The art style is a LARGE departure fromthe one seen in the actual show. The art style, as best as I can define it, is more hand drawn and simple. Rather than the relatively serious tone of the show, this special shoots for a much more comedic approach. I would even stretch to call these episodes "skits" like you would see on YouTube or New Grounds.
