Pretty decent follow up from last movie, although this was slightly slower as the main concept here was love, which was still pretty decent put in picture and of course action can't be missing from the movie's! I really loved the ending actually!

Lets see what the last movie has to offer!

That was a nice change, that they concentrated more on the characters and their relationships. But, unfortunately, they didn't make good use of it. Except for the last 15 minutes, the movie was pretty boring.

These just keep getting worse, huh? It was okay, but had none of the action that made the first two interesting.

While there wasn't as much action as the first two, I did enjoy seeing A-Ko try on different outfits, and she looked incredible when she was working at that burger place with that little hat on.

Only the last third had that ridiculousness that I liked in the previous 2 movies, the first two thirds played it too straight.

All of the people around the city responding to the alert and getting their mechs ready was one the coolest things in the A-ko series so far.

I was really surprised with this one. After the mess that was part 2 I wasn't expecting much, but it was a huge step up. They toned down the goofy silliness and upped the production value. I liked the simple plot of them behaving like normal girls for a change. I agree the townsfolk assembling at the end was great. Wasn't sure exactly what that was all about but it was pretty funny.

The third Project A-Ko was alright in my opinion. Also, Disney gets mentioned early on in this OVA.

The second half almost makes up for the banal first. C-ko I had thought originally was just a clutz and a little dimwitted girl, and she's technically the most normal of the three heroines. But it turns out she's an infantile child, despite being the same age as the rest. Her mental growth must have been stunted. She's incredibly annoying in this episode and selfish.

A non-standard entry into this series - I'd say it's about as bad as Versus, but it still has a strong sense of style and direction, even if this one is more boring than the previous two films.

An excellent OVA in my opinion. I think that the slow start was a great choice.
C-Ko's billiard dream had an insane atmosphere, and the slice-of-life sequence that followed gave us a nice focus on this crazy town and its people.

And when the situation finally escalates, it's as good as you''d expect from Project A-Ko. It may have been a short finale, but it still left me satisfied!

It's crazy to see the difference in how much someone can cramp in 45 mins in the previous OVA to how little in this one. So many concept art and designs of the citizens wasted. Completely unnecessary.
