Ive gotta say that Fairy Tail has better comedy fillers than the main story. Ova is an example here. There is even special opening theme for the ova, which is probably best FT opening. No fighting scenes, but there was some blood for the first time! I was totally surprised to see so much "cat" fanservice in it, but it was totally hilarious. I think that Fairy Tail has best comedy parts from all the ongoing shounen series, packing 25 minutes of these jokes into one episode is the way to go.
So in short, first episode of this OVA is comedy+fanservice maintaining FT atmosphere. People, who were expecting to see some epic fights will be probably disappointed. Ft gets better with the time and these additional eps simply proves that. 8 for the lulz i had while watching it. read more

This is a rewrite and updated version of my review of the Fairy Tail OVAs 2/25/12
Since the difference is mainly in the story of the 3 this is how I rank them
OVA 2- 9, OVA 1 -7, OVA 3 - 6
Fairy Tail OVA- 1 Youkoso Fairy Hills
====Back Story====
Youkoso Fairy Hills is the first ova of the series and is based off the manga side story Welcome to Fairy Hills. The story revolves around Lucy after she finds a job request that saying that a person is looking for some sort of object. This object was supposed to be in the Fairy Tail Girl's Dorm Rooms. Lucy seemed really puzzled by this so she decides to go and investigate. She finds out that the job request was written by a woman named Hilda, and that she is looking for the "Sparkling Treasure". Lucy questions why can't she just ask the girls in the dormitory to look, and Hilda tells her that she doesn't want their help nor wants them finding out. After that Lucy has to change into a VERY revealing cat outfit, and off she went to search for the treasure.
====Story====== (OVA 1)
The overall story in the Youkoso Fairy Hills was told very well. It had many awkward moments, and many more funny scenes. This storyline is a bit more serious than the other two that came after it, and you can really tell the difference in how Youkoso Fairy Hills has a great balance between being serious, and being hilarious. I like how at the end of Youkoso Fairy Hills we all learn a very valuable lesson, which in the other it is more for laughter than anything else.
Fairy Tail OVA 2- Yousei Gakuen: Yankee-kun to Yankee
====Back Story==== (OVA 2)
Yousei Gakuen: Yankee-kun to Yankee is the second ova of the series, and is also based of a manga side story of the same name. It takes place in an academy based Fairy Tail. This time the storyline primarily follows around Erza. She is in a love quarrel between her and Jellal. She is very shy around him and wants to go on a date, but first needs something new to wear. However, unannounced to Jellal , Erza has a dark side that can’t be shown to him. Also there’s a rivalry going on between Fairy Academy and Courage Academy, which brings another great and laughable element within the main storyline.
=====Story====
What is really interesting about Yankee-Kun to Yankee is that no one has magical powers at all, so when they all start fighting with the rival academy things turn out really interesting. I find that this storyline is much funnier and more relaxed than the 1st or 3rd OVAs. This one also reuses some gags previous used in the Fairy Tail series itself which is a plus. The balance in this is turned way more toward being hilarious, and doesn’t have any serious aspects
Fairy Tail OVA 3- Memory Days
====Back Story==== (OVA 3)
Fairy Tail Memory days is the latest installment of the OVAs, and isn’t based off a manga side story like the previous two were. This time the storyline is based around Erza, Natsu, Grey, Lucy, and Happy. It seems that Erza, Natsu, and Grey destroyed some buildings in town and their punishment to put the library back in order. Lucy just happens to get blamed as well since they are all part of the same team. Natsu has a bit of a secret because he can’t remember on how he got something. The crew then gets transported back in time to when everyone was young in the guild. Natsu, Grey, and Happy end up disappearing and going off on their own, which cause Erza to freak out because they can change the past with any interaction they have.
=====Story====
I find this storyline to be the most interesting of the OVAs, because, since it is an original written piece of work, they give us many more aspects that where otherwise left for the viewer to figure out. However, since this is about time travel now, many more questions arise from Memory days. Also some things just didn’t make any sense especially if most viewers think that the OVAs go along with the main storyline. Honestly I found it a tad bit boring. I like the fact that it is unique and new to Fairy Tail itself, but what they did was open up many plot holes from an otherwise solid anime.
====Art====
The art and animation in the OVAs are more or less the same as in the main series. In some aspects they are drawn a bit better as well. The animation however, remains the same. Characters are given different outfits to wear, in some OVAs and that is pretty much what difference between the main series and the OVAs is. There’s not much more to say. If you like Fairy Tail’s anime episode animation I'm sure you will love all of the OVAs.
====Sound ====
As great as ever. We are greeted with some new opening and ending music never before heard in the Fairy Tail franchise. This is because they are song by none other than Natsu (Kakihara, Tetsuya) and Lucy (Hirano, Aya) respectively. Both opening and ending songs are performed really great. In OVA 2 Erza has a great insert song at the end of the episode. In comparison the one that Erza sung is the best out of the 3 songs so far. Just like the art if a viewer likes the OSTs from Fairy Tail they are sure to like the sounds from this OVA as well.
=====Characters=====
All the main characters are here, and you hear bits and pieces from each one of them. From Lucy to Natsu, Juvia to Grey, Erza to Wendy, and even Gajeel is there as well. Also many other minor characters are also heard from. They all act as funny and ridiculous as ever. All Character still retain their style that is seen in the anime, and is mentioned before there are a tons of characters in the OVAs especially OVA 2.
=====Enjoyment=====
I suggest not watching this while eating because things might come out of your nose! One thing Fairy Tail is good at is being very funny and this really does show its strength. There's also a lot of fan service (not over the top) in OVA 1 and 2 as well. Yousei Gakuen: Yankee-kun to Yankee out beats both of the other two OVAs so far, since it has a wider spectrum of jokes, even more awkward moments, and an EXPLOSIVE AMOUNT OF VERY HUMOROUS MOMENTS that will make your stomach ache and shred some tears of joy. The fact still remains that all of them are a great way to spend time.
====Overall====
Overall Youkoso Fairy Hills, Yousei Gakuen: Yankee-kun to Yankee, and Memory days all have a good storylines with tons of exciting and enjoyable scenes that will keep you laughing until the show is over. Be sure to again not be drinking or eating anything while watching.
As a whole the whole series is great. If you're a Fairy Tail Fan of the anime or the manga I suggest watching the OVAs because it adds a lot more stomach aching enjoyment to a series that already does it very well!
