Sore ga Seiyuu!: Petit Uchiage

Seyuu Life was one of my favorite shows to come out this past year, something that really surprised me. But I just recently saw that there was an ova out, and decided to watch it, so wanted to leave my thoughts here since there hadn't been any other reviews made.

The plot of the ova is that Futaba, Rin and Ichigo go to a hot springs. There is quite a bit of fan-service near the beginning which really wasn't needed. But then the girls are recognized as being Earphones, and are asked to put on a show for the other people there and they do. ...

There really isn't anything that special about the story, it's just a special for people who liked the original show to see a little bit more with these characters. The one thing I really like about this ova is seeing how far these girls have come thanks to their hard-work, and this was shown really well.

Character-wise there really isn't anything new here, it's just seeing more of the same likable characters as before, which I'm fine with. There really isn't any development or growth here, but that was handled well enough during the main show.

Art and sound are the same as before. The moe style is done relatively well, and the soundtrack is okay. The song at the end was cool, but that was more trying to showing how far the girls have gone than being an amazing piece of music.

So in summary...

Pluses:

I liked seeing more of these characters
I really enjoyed how they shows the success the girls have worked hard for.

Cons:

Fan-service really wasn't needed.

Verdict:

If you liked the main show, watch this. If you didn't, nothing special here. If you've never seen the main show, you really should at least give it a try.
