Despite having never peeped the source material, I found myself enjoying Plastic Little in a sort of guilty-pleasure sort of way while knowing the story and pacing were messy with how much they were trying to fit into one OVA. It's a simple-ish story though and I managed to follow most of it.
Per Urushihara's style, of course, there's fanservice but I feel like I would have enjoyed it if it like, wasn't two underage girls lmao. Aside from that, the art is pretty and the style really appeals to me.
I feel like if it came out today the femboy lovers would be clamoring for Nichol the moment he came on screen.
I don't know if I'll ever read the source material. All I know is whatever the OVA presented to me. But, if you're bored and looking for something to passively watch, this is the OVA for you. Just like, don't watch it when people can walk in when you clearly have some girl's boobs on your screen. Common sense and all.
