Demi-chan wa Kataritai: Demi-chan no Natsuyasumi

I really loved the first season of demi-chan, unexpectedly more so than what most people seemed to have. So imagine my surprise when I heard (about an hour ago from the time of writing and submitting this) that they just made another episode.

I'm glad to say that the episode was a lot of fun. I wasn't expecting any serious character development or plot progression, instead I got exactly what I wanted. Lighthearted and silly demi-chan shenanigans. Instead of focusing on a particular character like most episodes of the initial season did, the screen time is mostly spread throughout most of the recurring characters of the show in a way that ties the ending of the episode with them together enjoying the summer festival.

There's not much to say since it's not particularly dense. I enjoyed it cause I love these characters, and find them interacting with each other (this time mostly in a non-school setting) pretty entertaining. If you remember enjoying the show as much as I did then give this a watch.

As much as I loved the tv series and how they presented the inner struggles of the characters and their lifestyle in the society this ONA had nothing special to offer for its audience.

It's just a simple and funny episode about going to a summer festival , where our characters experience different specific customs ( Courage test, eating takoyaki, watching the fireworks together etc.).

If you want to have a good laugh after a awful day this is the perfect choice and i gladly reccomend it. If you are looking for some depth and psychological aspects from the characters like in the tv series don't bother watching it , it's a waste of time.

this review might be short cause of the fact its a ONA but yeah

Story: no real story to this that the 3 girls and some of the others go to a festival explore and get sacred and also watch some fireworks also at the end was kinda neat with tetso ends up talking to a invisible girl in the end which is kinda neat.

Art: art is basically as the anime so nothing new really the fireworks were cool though

Sound: OP and ED are the same from the anime so nothing new here otherwise sound was good

Characters: Hikari is the vampire of the show of course a demi-human shes basically the trouble maker and also the fun going girl (not just her lol) but shes really cool and nice aswell. Sakie is the succubus of the anime she is always nervous about guys just guys cause well shes a succubus so she tries not too not so off so much skin but also has feeling for Takahashi. Yuki is the snow woman of the anime in the beginning she is more distant about herself and what not but that is before Hikari confronts some bullies and stand up to her but that's also because Takahashi helped aswell. Kyouko is the dullahan of the anime also like Sakie she likes Takahashi aswell also she pretty joyfull and nice and charming nothing else really too say about her. Tetsuo is the bio teacher and the main male of the anime he is the one who teaches the demi's of there nature and what not a pretty cool dude where the if the girls need help hes always there to lend a hand. (just copied this from my review of the anime also they dont list the characters so was hard to find the mains and what not).

Enjoyment: this ONA was pretty funny also glad that the Op and Ed were still her i dont mind and the art is that bad at all.

Overall: ill give this a 7 no idea if this picks after the anime or if this is just a random episode but this ONA will give yeah a good few laugh

There´s not much to say - if you liked the Demi-chan wa Kataritai anime you´ll probably like this. I liked the anime and thought it was good and my opinion is the same for this one, too. Assuming that. I´d recomend it!

No real character development or change happened except we got to see more of the ones we already knew, showing their relatiosnhip on a japanese summer festival. In the end, a new demi - a ghost girl appeared but other than that? pretty decent dialogs but not special.

The art style of the festival was actually pretty cool - the fireworks and the lights were great.

I think that if you liked the anime, no mistake in watching 25 more minutes and finish it all - but if you barely watched through the main thing, yeah, there isn´t much you´re missing. BUT I liked the add on to the story :)
