IS: Infinite Stratos Encore: Koi ni Kogareru Sextet

Story - 8

The story takes place after the events of the original series. It's pretty much a slice of life, romance, episode, completely separate from the Academy. Ichika is home alone and his lady friends decide to take this chance to stop by at his house. Just when you think it's over when you hear Super Stream begin to play in the back ground, it picks right back up for a few minutes of Ichika and Houki spending time together at a festival. It wraps up very nicely and the part I hated most was when I realized that I had finished the whole damn thing already.

Art - 8

I've said many times before, the art in IS is above average. If there's anything important about a harem anime it's the art, and making sure you are visually attracted by a character before you're even further ensnared by their stereotypical but irresistibly moe qualities.They have done this outstandingly well, which other cheap animes fail to do, besmirching the reputation of good Harem animes everywhere. Everything was up to shape, nothing to complain and plenty to nod in approval at.

The female characters, their clothing, movement, bodies, absolutely delicious to say the least.

Sound - 8

The fact that I have something to say automatically calls for a high rating. I finally got to hear Kana (voice for Char) do that shy, nervous, moe voice I always wanted.

That in itself was a treat. Voice acting was faultless.

Character - 8

Awesome. A harem done right. I've seen it before, but that only makes it better by the fact that I've seen it fail countless times before. I just want Ichika to decide on someone already.

Enjoyment - 9

The highlight was towards the second part of the OVA when Houki takes a bath and you get to ignore the subs and stare at her nipple for a few heavenly seconds. GODDAMN THAT WAS AWESOME.

Overall - 9

Obviously I'm someone who knows how to enjoy a well done Harem anime without letting the unoriginality get to me.

If you loved or liked the anime, you'll sure as well like or love this OVA. read more

The long awaited OVA or was it just simply me feeling like this took forever to be released, just because I loved this show. Infinite Stratos is a harem with mecha and in some way very unique.

This OVA is away from this IS academy and has more of a slice of life genre compared to the usual action. But still based on the romcom idea, with the usual of girls cooking for the guy and the favourite summer festival get together.

In some what I found the storyline for the OVA nothing amazing but I still greatly enjoyed watching it. The art is a great aspect of the show as well as the different characters. Overall I give this OVA a 9 just because it is Infinite Stratos.

Just watching this OVA makes me realise there better be a second season otherwise beatdown. Thanks I hope this review helps :) read more
