First things first, don't expect to feel "satisfied" with the ending after watching this. Reading the manga is so much better in terms of furthering the plot with Nanami, Tomoe, and Akura-ou.

I'm somewhat disappointed that this was an OVA rather than an actual season, but despite that...and the long wait between each episode (I waited basically forever for the fourth episode to come out), the watching experience was enjoyable.

Story: 10/10
I don't dislike anything about the plot in the OVA. It truly wrapped up the main focus of what the anime was alluding to: Tomoe's past with Yukiji. It answers many questions and makes your head go in a complete circle only to be connected beautifully in the end.

Art: 10/10
The art style stayed consistent with the original series. Nothing really stuck out to me as "ew, that's hideous" Cherry blossoms are always on point!

Character: 9/10
Blame the gap/long wait, but I felt there was just something off about Tomoe's behavior in this one. It may be that squishing any reflections of one's character into four episodes cut back on any smooth transitions. Either way, the characters, both Tomoe and Nanami give the viewers a warm and soft feeling in their hearts.

Enjoyment: 8/10
This rating would've been higher if the OVA didn't take so long to release each episode. Honestly, my mind barely remembers what occurred in the previous episodes. If you however are just starting watch, considering it's already done, I'm sure you'll give a 10/10! :)

Overall: 9/10
Again, read the manga for any lingering thoughts and emotions you will feel at the end. I loved every single episode and can't wait for the manga to finish up!
