Don't let the 3 first episodes fool you! The OVA takes a huge step to what it's suppose to be after those 3 first episodes. Really enjoyed the show when I watched 4-7.
I recommend to watch the original show before checking out the OVA sense it's story continues after and they spoil some story about the original show and they also tells you the personality of the characters and you might not want to know that until you know them by watching the original show.

As there hasn't really been any proper reviews talking about every OVA as i have heard they are stopping at 11, i decided to write a review summing up every OVA, and I'm going to assume that you are reading this after watching all 50 episodes of the series, and seeing if this is worth checking out.
-Story--8- The story in these OVAs carry the same quality as the main series, but with it obviously progressing. The first few episodes are to give you a re-cap on each character and their personality, which i believe is fine as this OVA started 6 years after the main series ... Aug 22, 2013
As a person who only watched the Anime I'd give it an 8,Since i really did enjoy myself. Yes, it did leave me wanting more but i rated this according to how much i enjoyed it, yes i did get pissed due to the fact that it left me wanting more of it but i wanted to be honest with how i rated this anime so personal feelings aside its a big FAT 8.
Story:The story was decent ,compared to the series the story was more fast paced and i liked it.The main protagonist had the same goals as when the series began.Well what can I ... Jul 25, 2013
As a person who only watched the anime, i found the series outstanding and i really got into the anime so much that it made me want to read the manga. But as previous reviewers comments say the Ova was a bit of a downfall for me...
The first was a good start after the series ended but with only 3 Ova's and where it left off wanted me wanting more... and thats a feeling no anime lover wants.. Watching Shijou Saikyou no Deshi Kenichi go for it.. all thumbs up...but if you want to watch the Ova's be ready for not much.. its not at all ... Sep 25, 2021
Can someone explain how this is R+ to me(seen all 11 of them btw)? Thanks (:
Was alright overall, made me realize how big Kenichi really became; thus improving its standing in my mind and my rankings accordingly. Also, a few of the character developments in this OVA set were really amazing. However, that isn't to say that it didn't feel rushed in the end. Needed more of a certain dude I'm ngl ): In addition, the first few OVA's(iirc) were realtively dry, holding the whole thing back a bit ngl. Still very interesting stuff scattered throughout though; definitely will be rewarding for anyone who's a ... |
