This Takagi-san OVA is a direct, episodic continuation to the anime story, taking place in water park. There is not much this episode ads to the story nor the character's and their relationship development. Our comedy centers heavily around side characters who jump around in swimsuits, and seem to have similarly awkward feelings stuff going on.

Seeing and imaging Takagi in swimsuits obviously makes Nishikata blush and our teaser to giggle to this. Those who never got tired of seeing this to happen, might find this episode worth their while even if most of it feels like filler.

One of the strongest points with the anime is Takahashi Rie whose job voicing Takagi was impressive to say the least. Because of her, I got quite attached to the series to a point where I watched several live fan events cast by her and other cast members. They would play jenga with erasers and the loser would say lines from the original script. The English name for these events is 'Rie Takahashi and Yuuki Kaji Tease You' for those interested. I can say I enjoyed those events way more than this specific episode.
