This ova was actually refreshing.

The first half was hilarious with all those Shido faces, and Origami being deadpan even in those embarrassing situations.The second half was also amusing with Tohka and Shido having a date. I lmao when Tohka destroyed almost every game in the arcade. Glad to see the Yamai sisters have a small cameo at one point in the ova. That nude photo of Tohka at the end made the episode for me.

And dat engrish in the op. Ai kant stop ze loneriness.

Is it just me, or did Tohka have a much higher pitched voice in this ep compare to the first season? It felt like someone else was voicing her.


i've doubt it at first too. but when i heard it more, i think it's real inoue marina.

Pretty random, but I liked the references, such as HnK, House of the Dead, Neptunia ect.
I wonder where the Neptunia reference is.

The monologue in the ending is probable refer to Aku no Hana ending. Dat Taketatsu Ayana way of talking...

Origami is so wonderfully kuudere, lol. I loved her totally nonplussed reactions to every sin Shido invented, from being a mother-con who's into cosplaying as a baby to sniffing his sister's panties and even wearing her image on his shirt ... admittedly, with Kotori, that's an understandable thing ;) I love how her every reaction is either "So desu" or "You too?" This girl is unshakeable :P

I have to admit this OVA made me like Origami a lot more than I did during the regular series. It's pretty much impossible to offend her, no matter what he says or does, as long as it doesn't involve other girls. And mmm, dem black pantsu. Speaking of, you'd think Kotori would have figured out that jealousy is the one way to scare off Origami, but knowing her she would either propose a threesome or go get her flying armor suit. Origami is anything but predictable, after all.

Who slipped Tohka the crack? XD She was super-hyper and yeah, didn't really sound like herself. I love how she thinks the only photos are nude photos. Strange and quirky little episode, I enjoyed it.

Great OVA, the beginning was so funny all them complex cannot drive away the love driving Origami xD.
The opening missed me a lot so great, returning to the actual episode : Tohka with a cellphone so funny poor her she doesn't know how to use it. So the date with Origami is finally happening and so the mission is so fuck'up the date but this wont be easy, swimsuit and dog ears...really ? that really happened. Origami sure his devoted to Shido. Those nice panties and no reaction ! Great misunderstanding and Shido just messed up big way ; The twins where there in the arcade ( there cute BTW) and That picture can i have it too ?!, Great OVA as stated once more can't wait for season 2 .

Origami is too best girl for me. Really enjoyed this OVA; definitely an improvement from the TV series. I'd like to think there was hope for the 2nd season because of this, and there probably will be, but I'm still hesitant to pick it up. ._.

Wow, this one OVA was actually better than the whole series...It had a nice balance of Tohka/Origami, comedy and romance. The only thing I missed was Kurumi, but I'm glad they concentrated on the important characters instead of mindlessly trying to squeeze everyone in. Good job 7/10.

That ova was awfully hilarious. Seriously, it was really great.

His speech at the beginning was so damn humiliating xD

Poor Origami, the first real date she have with him, he try to make it the worse possible :P

When he told her to put a school swimsuit and walk four-footed, the pedestrians reaction was so funny. Same for when Tohka was destroying all those arcade games.

Damn, Tohka, don't go too hard on the teasing.
Dat picture... I understand why she wanted to do it alone xD

First line: "trust is, i'm a loli-con.." I was like wtf!? I don't watch dubs but they will probably change that whole dialogue :P

"I cant stop da lonliness!" I nearly spit my drink out :D

I didn't like Origami in the series but she looked pretty damn kinky in that swim suit with dog ears and tail going "woof". Is it weird that turned me on? o.o

Lol at Tohka destroying all the arcade games and getting away with it :D

"All the punching and slapping felt so good" hahahaha that misunderstanding xD

Hilarious OVA solid 8/10.

Well if you think about it, it was Origami who did not disagree with what Shido said so it's her fault. But really that was really unfair for her as she is blinded by love.

WTF?! Whom in this (real) World do such a thing? It really exists..?! Damn.. this only reinforces that the "real World" is really a shit horrible World...

Origami and Shido date was so nonsense.. Doing this with a person who you know and that you do not dislike?! Wtf?! (i don't think that Shido HATE Origami)

"i'm dating to make the another person hate me"

Shido is acting like a robot guided by the commands of her "sister" without taking into consideration his and Origami true feelings (she can't hate him, regardless of what he does, after all, she loves him)....

He don't need to do it and even act like that, there're other ways to reach his purposes... but, to make Origami hate him is too much...

The idea to make Origami hate Shido is nonsense
The date idea and methods to reach their (Shido and Kotori) goal are nonsense

However, if it was to be nonsense, they got it...

Obs.: (1) Hate how Shido treated/treats Origami in this show. This treatment (especially in this OVA) is so rude... Just seeing a treatment like this in an anime made me really angry.. i can not even imagine this in real life...
(2) Kind sad about Origami unrequited love =/

Damn, the animation is really good. The season 2's animation is kinda bad, but I didn't mind it.
LOL at the beginning, and "I can't stop the loneliness" ahahaha. Poor Origami :/ Shido was stupid to even agree on that date, and what the hell is Kotori and her gang thinking =_= ?? Origami is adorable; they should show her some more love!!
Tohka is so freaking cute :3 Did Inoue Marina forgot Tohka's voice or something?? Well, it is still cute *^* That muscular Tohka O_O
Them misunderstandings are always amusing to watch~ That Tohka picture *^* Nice ending song :3 I saw the twins, too.
Well, I shall wait for the movie and encore OVA. Thank you ^^

I thought I got the wrong subs when Shido was talking. It really got me there.

Best opening narration yet!!! I can't stop the loneliness!!! Laughed so hard on this part.

That Origami's date super hilarious too. To top it all that picture of Tohka......:3

Well that's it nothing but a super LOL episode no story progression whatsoever. Even though its just a filler OVA it still made my day by laughing at every scene.

Edit: Watched the Sata Andagi video above made me LOL too. :)

For all those wondering about Tohka's voice..it is indeed different from the main series but I don't think its a different voice actress. Keep in mind Marina Inoue (Tohka's voice actress) is really talented. She has done voices from Armin (Shingeki no Kyojin) to Yozora (Haganai). It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility that she changed her voice a bit on the director's order~


Then the director needs to fired cause his an idiot if he thinks this sounds better.

Oh, the Yamai twins make a brief cameo. Nice


This episode was very good. Leave it to Kotori and the group to tell Shido all those things. Making Origami get on her knees and call her a ***** xD. Telling her that he won't let her use the restroom. That was one very bold move by Origami, moments away from doing her business on Shido xD. Origami is the type of girl who will do anything she asked to do, gotta love what she did in this episode.


Now going to the arcade games, the way Origami was losing was hilarious. "Oh no", "Ah!!!", and not to mention Tohka breaking the arcade machines. The figure booth was pretty funny. Origami running out of coins, saying she'll be back, and then getting her game face on, "Time to play". Lastly, the three of them have matching phone figures. Origami's expression at the end where it showed the three having matching figures was cute.

It wasn't bad but features a lot of Origami and I don't really like her. On the other hand there was just as much Tohka so I guess it's okay? Anyway decent for a filler episode.

Oh my God Origami was very perverted in this episode. A dog and swimsuit outfit? OMG! She's just plain in love with Shido that she would do anything.

I can't believe that even an OVA like this that started to focusing on Origami turned to another Tohka episode... so annoying.

Also at the beginning when Shido was forced to talk about siscon and sniffing the blanket, Kotori must be really pleased to hear that lol! I wanted to know Kotori's reaction when she said that to Shido. Kotori best girl.

Too bad we don't get to see Yoshino or Kurumi :( but we got the Tohka :3

Didn't Tohka sound more badass? I know she acts happy-go-lucky now but, she is far too childish. Ah well, she is still too cute. Should use her brain a bit though...But that image of her was hot. She was embarrassed, but she did it for him. Man, girls in this show adore the MC.

Origami made this OVA for me. Some cheats are in use cuz' you can't drop her love points at all. Nothing fazes her. I kinda like her even more.

Still, that MC still needs support? If he can't figure things out by himself for what to say now, he is a maximum idiot. Does he even enjoys those dates?

Still, this Ova was much more fun then half of season one.
