This is a anime from about 10 years ago, so give it a bit of leverage here.

Story:

The story is a re-imagining of the OVA, it places the characters in different places, in different times with slightly different personality changes. It starts with the greedy Inaho and she finds Mosquiton and forces him to make a contract with her. Every episode starts with her looking or searching for a piece of O-part that fits the key she has which is slightly annoying because that was every episode.

EVERY EPISODE, it was fair but it seemed like you could watch a few episodes for the light-hearted banter between the Mosquiton & Inaho. It seems the darkness/adult-comedy/romance isn't there anymore, this more of a light-hearted/romance/comedy. Which, even though it IS the same set of characters, the storyline worked a lot better in being a dark comedy rather than a light one.

Some of the character's backstory is different, like Camille. She's not with Mosquiton and Germaine or whatever is his name is isn't just some guy who seemed like the bad guy at the end. I preferred it this way, honestly. Camille in the OVA added something, but her presence here seemed better to me, I don't know.

The ending episodes are the best, I wish they would have spread them out. The Christmas one was especially my favourite because it reminded me so much of how Inaho acted in the OVA and their relationship.

All in all, the story was fair, kind of fun and made you shake your head at Inaho, so I gave it a 6.

Art:

The art was alright for it's day, I believe that because this has been fan-subbed that the quality has been lost on VCRs. A lot of people complain about older anime because of this, but I don't fault the art or animation. I am sad that I couldn't give it a better rating, because the fun use of colour would have been much better and the animation much smoother and less pixelated had there been original dvd releases. So -- 5.

Sound:

Great! They use some of the old OVA music in mixture with some new tunes and some music that makes you feel like "Oh, this is getting good!" I loved the music, I have nothing to complain about! -9

Character:

I believe that in a light-hearted scenario that this is how the characters would act because there was honestly no darkness in this anime. Mosquiton was very light hearted and I see how he became very domesticated during the series. They were all the same basically but with two new characters: Wolf Lady and Frankie.

I liked the character's development here, it's very touching in the ending episodes. Frankie is often funny and I like his persistence. I think they add something to the series.

THE ONLY CHARACTER I DO NOT LIKE is Akito? Inaho's cousin? She is annoying, she acts just like Inaho and she reminds me of Sailor Moon? I don't know, it's just with Inaho being a frustrating ass, Akito comes in and does the same thing. When they are in an episode together, I just skipped one completely because it was just stupid. Even in the end, she was practically useless. There did not need to be a character to try to hog Inaho's spotlight by acting just like her, they show no family ties which makes her appearance more annoying.

Enjoyment: If you like Mosquiton, you'll like this kinda. In my brain, I think of this as a super sequel in my brain where it's a certain way so I don't think of Inaho as the same exact one in 99', because they are different in many ways.

Overall: It's a little better than decent, I found myself almost tearing near the end because I love Inaho/Mosquiton :] I think you would too if you saw the OVA
