It's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, but it's a very forgettable story. So much so, that despite watching it yesterday, I've already forgotten the main character's name, and anything besides the main plot points. The animation and soundtrack are nothing to write home about, but I can't say they were objectively bad. The thing about this show is that it feels like it's trying to cram at least a couple movies worth of plot into a short amount of time. The premise honestly isn't bad but the story falls flat. Now I watch plenty of shows that are just horriblewith no plot but they at least have something interesting to make up for it. This has nothing. The characters, the story, and even the art none, of it has any depth; it's just your basic run of the mill cranked out OVA. It's not even good enough to make fun of. Unfortunately there is a reason a lot of these Fall into obscurity. Will I watch it again? Probably. Would I recommend it? No
