Hajimete no Gal: Hajimete no Bunkasai

This is getting as high of a review as it is because of the dub, it is like an abridged series with how they've done it, it's hilarious!


Story:


There isn't really a story in the OVA, much like most OVAs, but just showed how strong the relationship truly is between our favourite power couple.


Art:
...

The art is colourful and clean, the characters are vibrant and distinct, each with their own styles of hair, features, even eye colour is clear.


Sound:


The opening and the ending music is super catchy and really nice to listen to as a whole, it is something you can rock your head to and pretend that you know the lyrics.


Character:


Yukana Yame - A stereotypical gal that is actually a lot more innocent than she lets on and is, as a whole, a very wholesome person.

Junichi Hashiba - A shy and quiet boy who likes to eye up girls other than the one he is dating but still only gives her proper respect/acknowledgement when they talk to him.

Hajimete no Gal: Hajimete no Bunkasai (2017)

Must have been a nice show for Boxing Day.

In terms of the OVA, we have a typical school festival.

Maid cafe, haunted house and dance for eternal love. You know the drill.

The only difference is the sinister plot of the friends that as you expect doesn't work out.

... We get a cult of paedophiles all wanting loli pictures from the paedophile guy and one is a 37-year-old man who feels happy for being such a person because he is congratulated for seeing a certain picture on the wall.

The ecchi scenes are as you would expect and do not disappoint. The OVA overall has a better quality of animation than the whole series even though it is virtually the same. You just get less of the awkward angles in this one.

We get a nice ending to this series and it is an alright OVA. It is somewhat redeeming of the series.

[“It’s your typical, average, everyday school festival” Episode]

There’s nothing remotely special about this OVA. Its content is as dry and stale as the Sahara Desert. The plot is simple, unoriginal, and unremarkable. Here is a list of noticeable cliches in this OVA:

– Main class of the main characters run a maid cafe.
- Spent many minutes in the girl's changing room with the girls groping and guessing each other bust size.
- "The legend of the school dance" event
- Lots of backstabbing to prevent Junichi from dancing with Yukana at the school’s folk dance
- "Haunted House" event
- Lots of random running around scenes
- Random literal pits ... fall solve main characters’ problems
- In the end, it doesn’t even matter because Junichi and Yukana dance together.

Everything else is unremarkable: the characters are unremarkable, completely brain-dead, and one-dimensional, the art and animations are unremarkable and are as generic as any other romantic-comedy, and the music and sound design are unremarkable and fails to add anything new.

Even the fanservice is unremarkable: boob grabbing and groping, panties scenes, boobs jiggling, and finally lots of cleavage.

Enjoyment: An unremarkable episode for an unremarkable series.
