It's nice to have specials that genuinely feel like more episodes of the anime. Biggest disappointments with them are that some of the plots here would have made for some nice, full-length episodes. Most notably, the siblings of Tanaka and Oota, Rino and Saya. They really did not get very much screen time at all in the anime, so seeing them have a dedicated special felt sad due to how short these are. The special with the WacDonald's worker, Saionji, felt like it fit the short length of the specials the most. I enjoyed my time with all of these, and at the end of theday, we should always be grateful to see any manga adapt into an anime, as well as those that are raw anime. It just makes you wish the anime standard was twenty-four episodes instead of twelve. The moment you fall in love with these shows, they are over.
