Desert Rose: The Snow Apocalypse · review

7 /10

This is an odd OVA. One episode, 44 minutes, with a lot of setup and implication of wider plots that there aren't time for. Nothing that's in here is done poorly, but at the end I was more confused than satisfied. It feels like an episode of some broader TV show that didn't survive and so we have this one remainder. I would still recommend it if you're in the habit of watching old OVAs like this, you might have fun. Bring a friend along to share in the bafflement. If you don't usually watch stuff like this, skip it, it's not a good entrypoint. Maybe record this onto a VHS and mockup some box art and prank someone with it, it's perfect for that.

I realize I've said very little about what IS here, but you pretty much get what you see: an all women's spec ops group. There's a lot less violence than you may want, and a lot more "wow they're pretty but can they actually shoot?" comments than I'd really like to see. In fact every time one of those comments gets made it feels like a gunfight or cooler action scene that got cut. If you liked this but felt hungry still, go try Gunsmith Cats.
