Synopsis

Tarou Kabakura, a third-year high school student and captain of the boys' volleyball team, is constantly being harassed by his underclassman Hanako Koyanagi, who is in charge of the girls' team. Koyanagi insists that since the girls have a match coming up, Kabakura should give up the courts to let them practice. When he refuses, she pulls out photographic evidence exposing his secret hobby.

With the danger of his entire team finding out about his otaku interests looming over him, Kabakura agrees to hand over the volleyball courts to Koyanagi, giving her some private coaching as well. As the two grow closer, they begin to forge an everlasting bond.

[Written by MAL Rewrite]

Third OVA—covering the "employee trip" chapter(s) from the sixth tankouban volume—will be bundled with the special edition of the 11th and final volume of the manga which ships on October 14, 2021.

Basically you've got three episodes with this OVA that will focus on each of the three couples of Wotakoi. I would say that the focus in the first two episodes that shifts the main POV away from the two main characters and into the side couples is very valuable, especially if you're a viewer who is going to move into the manga after watching the series. If you loved the Wotakoi characters, these episodes are going to give you everything you love about them all over again. Actually, some of the better parts of the series' tone and emotion was repeated in these episodes, too, ...

I dropped the original series because the main couple is so boring. Yesterday i've seen a scene of kabakura and hanako on tiktok and i immediately watch this OVA.

They are more interesting than the main couple. I enjoyed it more than the original series. This OVA makes me want to try completing the original series just so i can watch kabakura and hanako more.

The story is well written. They show a flashback on high school life of kabakura and hanako. I wish they would make a spin off of these two.

So overall i give it a 7. Thank you to the director for ...

A nice ending for Wotakoi.

This shows the origins of the green haired girl and the orange haired boys origin of their love story.

The first and third episodes were really nice. Second one misses the mark.

I gave Ep. 1 a 3/3

2nd Ep. a 0/3
