Definely alternative One, Milky Holmes looks more seriously here lol and they got toys here.

This episode is based in London (England)

Hmm.. I wonder if there wil be more episodes for that kind of ending.

well, that was a nice alternative. Seeing them with powers is just coolsauce! I hope there's more or something in the future.

I was surprised by how useful the milkies are in this episode. Not only they were smart, they did not do stupid things, and they used their toys properly to apprehend the bad guys.

It lost the usual charm that milkies are suppose to have when they screw things up but i guess i dont mind seeing them in serious action once in awhile too! :D

8/10 overall. I hope there's continuation in it

It was an ok episode. I didn't mind them actually doing their detective work and having their abilities.

However I remember when the 2 or 3 times when they actually had their TOYS in season 1 and 2, they were more powerful then they show it in this special.

Another thing, this new character, their sensei, NO. just NO.
I rather them being independent from adults and doing their detective work by themselves.

Also, the police woman, or girl, can't tell, not as likeable as koko-chan.

AND THERE IS NO HENRIETTE!! What kind of Tantei Opera Milky Holmes anime with no Henrietta is this??? NO, JUST NO.

IF they needed some guidance, she could of been their support, instead of adding a homosexual lolicon. ok, sorry, but did you see the way he ran and talked?? ok, that's no the point.

Anywayyyys, well I'll always welcome more TOMH, but give me the usual damm it!
Them, with no powers is hilarious, and their ways of handling things too.
One serious episode is enough for me, thanks.

Ok, well I'll be looking forward next episode.

Pretty average and though it's defiantly a change in pace nothing will ever beat the original series.

This type of mystery is what lacking in the original series but i didn't like it too much, without the old phantom thieves, no comedy.

Totally boring: Those four actually solve mystery cases instead of doing hilarious nonsense stuff.
And those four...character-wise, they actually pretty differ from how they were in the original series.

I loved the first two seasons because the humor was just so exaggerated and great, and the characters were all like super-dumb, which was just hilarious, but this...it like a boring kids show. Another one of those millions of boring shows nobody needs :-(

Definitely not gonna watching this further.

After two seasons of being completely useless it's very refreshing to see the Milky Holmes girls working with their teacher like in the PSP novels.

FUCK YEAH, MILKY HOMES, BRINGING THE BOMB TO LONDON!
The girls were exception this episode. They were also very reserved... it's like they grew up or something. I don't know if I like it.

Wow this is what I was looking for in this anime, not such random anime like the main series, but exactly this serious toned detective and case solving development!

It's quite sad it only holds episodes, lets see what's next though!

Compared to the other OVA I watched, I think this one was better considering it does have a slightly more serious mood especially in the second half.

Kitty Evans looks pretty badass anyways.

Dat cliffhanger. There's a mastermind huh?

Yup, this was defnitely alternatve. It was so weird to see Milky Holmes being not useless. I like them better when they don't have their Toys.

THIS IS NOT THE MILKY HOLMES I KNOW AND LOVE!

And Herc can actually speak! Also no nipples ;_;

So apparently this is more close to the visual novel that was released around the same time as the first season, since the Kobayashi guy is in there too. Pretty disappointing as it was full serious and the mystery wasn't that interesting.

I'll treat it as a stand alone thing, since it is a "What if they never lost their toys" scenario, but that doesn't help it much. Hope the second episode is at least better.

This was an okay episode. Much more calm and mature than the main series.
