Prince of Tennis: A Day on Survival Mountain is one of the few OVAs that contains side stories of the series yet fairly entertaining.

Story: Nothing special; it's just your typical non main plot-related episode with tennis-related activities and some humor thrown in. Though, aside from that, you find it quite entertaining and could keep you watching until the end. The only problem is that there isn't much tennis action, and the longest match could have been 7 minutes or less, but I don't mind that.

Art: One of the strongest points in The Prince of Tennis series. There is a small improvement in the animation, ... as expected of a special, and there is minimum amount of frames repeated, which is good.

Sound: You might notice that there is a new set of BGM numbers during the OVA. They are similar to the ones played in the original anime series and were nothing exceptional, but it was cool to listen to something new and refreshing.

Character: There isn't much development in this OVA, both in traits and tennis style, though we get to see one new move Echizen did. We got to introduce to a few new characters, but most of them (two are excluded) aren't really special.

Enjoyment: Despite the lack of tennis action, there was humor that could make us giggle and some new tennis tips and training activities that kept me sitting in the chair.

Overall - Prince of Tennis: A Day on Survival Mountain is one of the few OVAs that contains side stories of the series yet reasonably entertaining at the same time. The OVA could be finished in one sitting (of course). In the end, it is a fairly satisfying watch.

To me, Gurren Lagann is one of the best anime i have ever watch.
The story: very epic, it takes place of very fictional future where humans are forced to live underground, until a fourteen-year-old boy who is just one of the greatest diggers in a village, change the fate of humanity.
Art: well, you can say it's just simple and clean.The characters' clothes are just simple, well, some of them doesn't need clothes.....
Sound: Ah, yes, the opening song sure fits the anime, and it is a very good song that, like after only 5 eps. you already know the lyrics. it fits because of the sound ... and title: "Sora-iro Days".the two Endings are very cool as well, especially the song: "Minna no Peace". "Happily ever after" is only used occasionally, but, its a very good song.
Character: there are plenty of names in this anime, but mainly ,you just have to remember the maines' names (ex. Simon,Nia,Kamina,Yoko), but, if you do like, you might want to remember the others names (ex. Rossiu,Kittan)
Enjoyment: Let's see here, ummm, there are so many laughter that you might like this story, some very sad moments,happy moments, and all, and i even include shocking momemts. the best enjoyment in this anime is the story.
Overall: i can't think of an overall, but when you watch this, you might want to watch it again (well, not always). if you watch this, you might guarantee this "your best anime you ever watch" like me. and sometimes, when you missed an episode, you might have some little regret (or biggest regrets for those who really wanted to watch and are greatest fans of Gurren Lagann).

This is my Review for the anime: "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann"!
Hope this is a helpful review to you all....
