Ok, this ova when you first see the synopsis on MAL, it gives you a WHAT? reaction. But that shouldn't keep you from watching it. I assume you already watched Date A Live and finished both seasons to watch and find this ova to watch. Enough dillydallying, into the episode.
Story 10/10
The story first starts with Kurumi, the worst Spirit, at one side of the sidewalk, and the other side of the sidewalk, is Shido. Kurumi asks Shido on a date surprisingly and I know what you are thinking, This girl tried to kill him. BUUUt, Shido under circumstances went on the date with of cource doubt in his mind, and us watching this too. They had fun like normal teenagers. They went to the planetarium, and near the Tanabata festival (the festival where you can write a wish on a piece of paper and hang it on a bamboo), Kurumi wanted to go to the wedding hall with Shido. Shido Obliged with a little push from Kurumi. At the same time, Other stuff happen with the other three spirits (Tohka, Yoshino, Kotori). Kurumi and Shido eventually took a wedding picture and Kurumi and Shido went to go hang a wish of their owns up. Kurumi hid what her wish was Until (PLOT TWIST.) And then it breaks your heart and make you feel bad that you doubted this Kurumi for the entire episodes. Then, At the end, Shido Hangs Kurumi's wish after he reads it onto the highest bamboo he can find so the wish would hopefully come true. Lastly, back at the house, Shido talks with the girls with the screen showing that wedding picture Kurumi and Shido Took.
Plz, Go watch this, you won't regret it, it leaves you with feels.
Art 9/10
I feel like the artstyle is reletivaly ok, the op was the second season op, so the artstyle was really good. And throughout the episode, all the character Espacially that wedding picture was all good.
Music 8/10
It is the same tracks from the second season, like I said, the op is the second season one, and the music is pretty good. The voices were like normal too.
Character 10/10
Even though it didn't show the second season's spirit at all, It at least showed the first season's three spirits sometime in this episode. But mostly, it is Kurumi and Shido, Kurumi was really planned out for this episode, the facial expression, the voice, the movement, it was flawless. It showed what Kurumi is like before she (Plot Twist).
Enjoyment 10/10
Right after the second season's finale, Eager for more, I searched and found this Ova so I decided to watch it, it first didn't really turned out to what I expected, and I doubted Kurumi just a little bit at the end thinking she will make a move, but then the hardcore harsh Plot Twist got me, the feels were so harsh, and I was feeling I can cry. It makes me wanting for more at the end with the Wedding Picture ending screen. But The emotion and the feel is excatly why I Loved this episode so much, to think to give the one who watched this so much feelings is excellent from the writers too.
Overall 10/10
This Ova has to be one of the best episodes I've seen, I can argue that this episode was even better then any of the episodes in both seasons, this episode had humor, romance, and plot twist that make us go on the feel train. So go and watch it, I promise you you won't be disappointed.
