THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This one featured Ban as the main character as it includes his past that goes with it. It also shows a more detailed version of he and Elaine's relationship. Cute imo.

Well not everything is cute I guess when the demon came.

The new content with their relationship and extended conversation footage is quite something though.

I thought it's going to be Suzuki-san's character's journey from early time (though it did show during the flashback slideshow) until the time he got immortal life, but it's just FukuJun's character's sister and Suzuki-san's character's story in extended ver. It's still nice to know what we didn't know, though.

Wow, his blood grew the plant!

Edit (December 23, 2017): w. the TV broadcast complete ver. in 2017, I think they added a little scene (in the beginning, and ED).

Is Ban the most popular character? I think it was King but it doesn't matter, they went and picked the only character who we already knew some of their past, since they went over it in the TV series, and left everyone else in the dark, why, why not focus on someone else, sure, sure, doing that outside the main series would be a bit awkward but man, give us something else.
At this rate the manga better get 700+ chapter or what the hell is even the point of the "sins".

One more time watched their story but this one was better than the last one. At least this shows more details about their lifes for a week and what happened during and after the main battle against the demon! ^.^

It was pretty much what we saw in the TV series, it's not bad but I'm still really dissapointed they didn't take this chance to make something else.

Agreed. I was expecting something different, but an extended version of Ban X Elaine OTP story wasn't too bad.

Any chance they'll take these OVAs to animate the manga's side stories? Escanor OVA would be fantastic. :D

It was really nice to see an extended version of this backstory. Definitely my favourite backstory :)

That battle was intense!

I really love Ban and Elaine so of course I loved watching this. It was really sweet to watch how happy they were together. AHHHHH!! It's so heartbreaking... </3

But I always wonder. . .why didn't they BOTH drink from the cup? Considering the song Ban sings every attempt he makes to climb the tree before getting shot back down by Elaine (about how a sip gets you ten years, etc etc etc). . .why didn't they share the cup? Maybe I am missing something because I am not very far in the manga..?

Not really anything new, but I fully enjoyed this extended version of Elaine and Ban. This was definitely one of my favorite parts and it was nice to see a longer version of everything that happened.

Essentially an extended version of what was shown in the main series. Still nice though. Hopefully season 2 comes soon
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Highly doubt it we'll see any new season soon... maybe in two years, since the adaptation was so rushed and covered 100 chapters (or something like that). They could've easily made around... 40 episodes (with good pacing and no fillers). Guess they didn't thought it'll be that popular?

It was nice to see, and it sort of filled in the gaps from before when it was in a flashback during the actual series. However, I hope they do King's backstory in more depth, like his time with Diane etc. because it didn't see complete with the flashbacks.

We know the past of many of them.
As for King we already know all we need.

Merlin is lacking information so an OAV would make no sense.
The last guy is even worse.
I suppose Gother would have been a proper choice?
