Warning:Current information is missing the tag ecchi. Should have been clear given the cover art or synopsis but oh well.

Story
Introduction was portrayed wonderfully For proper narration was done. Ending while not quite complete was perfect. In reason it opened up to a continuance. Given from what i have seen while comedy was a tad light i am slightly looking forward to. Mainly due to ecchi content. Which one might find to be a tad more revealing than most censored ecchi anime.

Character
Unsure of how i feel about some of the name choices used. For example gorgeous is one of the main character names. ... Perhaps it is just me but isn't that name reserved for women? I thought the male terminology was handsome. Also, "big brother, Big sister" i get the context but wouldn't it be better to say bro-sis? Same point is being portrayed it is just shorter to say. Not to neglect to mention the character saying the phrase is a child of sorts. To my knowledge of the past kids always shortened things. Lastly, a character's coin phrase or cute remark sounds a lot like 'f' u'. Was that intended?

No issues with back stories.

I liked how there was a moe portrayal of the characters.

This is more a warning than a review - this two-episode OVA is clearly meant for readers of the manga, as was very common with OVA manga adaptations when this came out. Manga readers knew all the backstory and wanted to see their favorite characters in anime form. As a result, this OVA just drops the viewer in media res - we're told a few sentences of backstory but there's no room to breathe or meet the characters before things start happening. Which is fine - that is not what this show was meant to do! But that makes it probably not worth watching in ... 2024 especially when a TV adaptation also exists. (We'll see when we get there, I suppose, but if it's anything like 99% of situations like this, that will actually build up the story.) It's difficult to review this as we're nowhere near the beginning of the story: we're told Maze turns into a boy at night and we see a few scenes of this. (Another warning worth mentioning here is the high level of ecchi here veering into sexual assault which may not be palatable these days.) We get a cursory introduction to their traveling companions but we barely get a hint of their personalities. I'm just going to write this one off and go to the series but I thought it prudent to make it clear to anyone stumbling across this that this is definitely more of a manga supplement OVA than a standalone.
