I must say, I am impressed by what this short OVA had to offer. I feel that the idea of the two views of each character was such a fascinating concept, I think that there are others like this but this is the first time I've seen it in a show. The first episode I'll admit is fine, it's decent but there was a bit of a head-scratching moment as not everything was explained from the female's point of view. But once the second episode showed the view of the male, everything sort of clicked with the first episode. I think that the studio did a pretty good job on these 2 episodes they have, while a part of me wishes for a more solid story, I do realize that 2 episodes are not a lot of time. So I think they made the right decision on keeping the story simple but the concept interesting.
-SCORES-
Characters- 7/10: The weakest part, in my opinion, but there wasn't much time for the characters to be well built enough. All we had was the back story of the two and how they absolutely sucked at romance. The male is an awkward pacifist and the female is an indecisive and overly self-conscious person. Very interesting characters I must say. As for the mini-donkey, I want to believe that it is a symbol of some sort, likely the hidden 'correct path' chooser that was in both of them and that it helped them lead back into each other.
Art- 8/10: Neat, clean and unique. Definitely is a shock to see that this was made in 2007.
Writing- 8/10: Cool concept, interesting characters, and somewhat enjoyable plots. I definitely felt that this was worth an hour's watch.
Sound- 9/10: Fantastic OST for this short OVA. Definitely the music to scenes just adds a whole depth to the story.
Overall, a pretty good and enjoyable watch. It doesn't take up too much of your time, it's only 2 episodes long, I say take a crack at it.
