i don't think that spoiler is appropriate for an ep 1 thread even in tags. >.<

Haha! Just plain LOL. If I can delete posts. I would delete it. It's not appropriate for an episode "1" discussion.

This almost felt like a 20 minute commercial for the series/game

I felt the same way. Only good thing about this is that I want to rewatch the original series.

I didn't know what it was either, so i looked it up. On google search i found this:
Anime News Network Said:

Original Net Anime (ONA)

Where an Original Animated Video (OAV) is Anime created for the direct to video market,
Original Net Animation refers to Anime created to be released directly onto the Internet.
The term ONA was first coined by the creators of Lingerie Fighter Papillon Rose and ANN decided to adopt it since
1) there was no other word to describe this new format of anime and
2) we felt "ONA" was an original and appropriate denomination.
Most ONAs are fan works, however AIC recently released Mahou Yuugi directly onto the internet before allowing it to be shown on TV much later.

So I guess this was some kind of introduction episode for the game/anime. It was okay. Brought back some dark memories, heh.

I liked the first episodes of School Days(before it turned to die-Makoto-die) and I enjoyed the more dramatized closure of the 1st episode given here... but still it was not worth seeing this after seeing the series...

I feel like it wasn't worth watching. It's the same as the first episode of the series but with poor animation.

Not a bad anime. Kind of lackluster, but it was enjoyable.

I liked this ONA a little better than the series’ episode 1. The characters were better defined and more dramatic here than in the series.

Animation is too stiff for me, and the voice acting is quite abysmal.

Not much to say about the characters, they feel lifeless. As for the story, I know what happens at the end. Meh, below average introduction.

Not much to say about this, as its basically just a different version of the first episode. Same plot points and everything. Gets a better score because it doesn't get School Days-y yet. A high 5/10.

Well, I guess it was pretty alright way to make a game commercial. You know, regular length anime episode presenting the glimpse of what to expect in the game itself, instead of just several seconds long promo. However, as I've already finished watching School Days TV series, I was not impressed by this ONA. Even if it was my first contact with the franchise I think I wouldn't be motivated enough by this ONA to give this game a try.
