THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Seems like there's finally subs for it. I have a feeling i really shouldn't have watched this as an anime only.

Anyway, that was pretty damn boring.

Yeah, i know. I couldn't help myself and watch it when i saw it suddenly appearing on the front page of my usual streaming site page since it was just a 10 minute thing.

Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Decently cute but without having read the manga it was a pretty average fantasy anime

I thought this was pretty neat. It was a nice short, and if it's goal was to get me interested in reading the manga. It succeeded lol.

Interesting but due to obvious reasons (me not knowing anything about the manga), I wasn't that invested in neither of the characters.

5/10 - Noah is an absolute cutie tho.

I liked this. Too bad I could only find it in 480p.

I love Riff. She's just the right kind of crazy for my tastes.

I was actually expecting an anime. I don't do OVA's. I consider them just anime previews. Tbh, I feel like this was just a money grab to get people to buy the manga. That's what happened with No Game No Life. The anime was just made as a promo to the manga. At least, I hope that's not what it is now as now the studio is making multiple seasons of things. So, maybe it won't be anymore.

Well, I have bad news for you most if not all anime based on pre-existing source exist mostly to promote manga, LN or games of which they were adapted or to promote streaming platforms on which they are available.
Manga recommendation:
- Spy x Family (Ch.107/? - biweekly) | Sakamoto Days (Ch.190/? - weekly)
- MARRIAGETOXIN (Ch.108/? - weekly) | Machi and Oboro (Ch.15/? - biweekly)
- Make the Exorcist Fall in Love (Ch.78/? - biweekly)
- You and I Are Polar Opposites (Ch.64/? - biweekly)
Anime recommendation:
- Deca-Dence (Finished) | Wave, Listen to Me! (Finished)
- If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die (Finished)
- Diary of Our Days at the Breakwater (Finished)

A n adorable sight for manga readers. This OVA really livened up the mood of this wonderful story. Each character that appeared in this episode was portrayed in bestt of their personality. Noah and Kyuss vying for Astra was the best thing XD.
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because.

Nice episode but it has nothing but a really catchy ending, maybe this is the only thing better than this OVA. Who knows if this project will evolve into something else, I would be curious to see an anime series.

What is this OVA? Its somehow act as prequel or something, or even i can call this a PV? But why like these only? Im laughed. There is not much good story to happen on this little show since there is no story. Only random garage sale out of nowhere with no story related. I guess you need to read the Manga? If you like the art and ofc its character, go read, em. I just can't reach every manga on my resource online. So, overall for this tiny show, i give my scores to mean rate:
- Story : 5
Not because i dont like. I just can't keep up whats goin on, rather seeing a bunch of people buying some thing on garage sale. Nothing. 5 must be enough.
- Sounds, art, music : 8
Only this parts satisfied me. No other thing can be the strength.
- Character : 6
Only give 6 because i like loli and pretty mages stunned my eyes. Just that and only that, no more.
- Enjoyment? I might be cruel. But 5 shall be enough to apreciate the appearance of loli wizard and her pretty sister. Only that shit. Yes only that.
Overall must be well weight-lift to 6.5. So 6 per 10 clear my path to the heaven. Blessing to My Life.

Silly Astra and his adorable helper Noah, this garage sale could have been a bigger succes....if there was a garage to sale from....Bad jokes aside this seemed pretty neat 10-minute special for something that was crowdfunded.

Noticed the Comedy tag, so it's supposed to be funny?
Hmm... I wouldn't have known if there wasn't the tag but okay
