THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
A rather meh start I must say, a lot could've been filled but the whole episode was rather casual and not all that much happened either... Either way let's see what the second episode has to offer!

So, this was confusing. It starts with what seems like a recap of a first episode, explaing briefly the premise and alluding to a fight, being narrated by bad guys with what looks like footage of a previous episode. The whole premise of this episode, two enemies getting revenge on Compiler and Assembler, would seem imply this episode isn't a first episode. Yet this seems to be the first. Oh well.

It's pretty clearly written for manga readers since it's not one of those OVAs that are written to for newcomers to the story, like Oh My Goddess, for example. Since I didn't read the manga this is a big negative.

Otoh I like Kia Asamiya's art and I really liked Upload/Download and their plentiful nudity, and there was also a giant kaiju-style Colonel Sanders statue, which was maybe one of the best things I've seen.

felt like the OP to me at first but oh well :p
guess they used the opening to set the premise and then just continued with slice of live i guess xD

ohw kay then looks like more things makes more sense if you seen the music video(s) which were aired before the ova got released https://myanimelist.net/anime/38769/Compiler__Music_Clips_in_Trackdown

Some jokes that just don't land, and a few others that come off as embarrassing, I do appreciated all the gratuitous nudity tho, not the worst.
