Do not watch this without reading the main-stories from the game first.
Each episode compresses 2-3 hours of visual novel into 5 minutes. It's not trying to tell a coherent story that newcomers will understand, it's fanservice to see important beats of the original main stories animated.

It felt like a compilation of clips more than anything else. The animation was okay, but the audio definitely could've been used to enhance the experience more.
