To Heart 2 OVA

For me, as to why I find this OVA interesting is the author's use of the harem, I guess this OVA is more like a continuation for the other members of the harem to be able to be with the muchacho (lead male character) , though Manaka was was able to have another supposed opportunity to be with the muchacho (that's in OVA1), but you know, what really do make the story of this OVA good (including the anime itself) is the authors well use of the genre's, so I here by give it an 8 for the story.

The art itself is fairly good (6) ... and so as the sound (6), the characters role kinda represent a different genres, but the main point of it all is the muchacho who is represents a kind hearted soul which every members of the harem connect with, so I rated it as an 8. The enjoyment is very good and the author really defined the the phrase "FOR GENERAL VIEWING" which can be viewed by all ( as long as you forget the panty shots).

Overall, I thinks the author of this anime should have made a season 2 instead of a couple of OVA's. So, at this point we can only hope. (my overall rate is 8)

The main purpose of To Heart 2 OVA is to introduce the characters who, for one reason or another (mainly time constraints I am gonna guess), couldn't be introduced in the main To Heart 2 anime.

Yep, and that's about it, really.

Here, on To Heart 2 OVA you will meet:

Komaki Ikuno: the inquisitive albeit frail little sister of Komaki Manaka (remember her? the "quasi" unofficial librarian of the school's library) and character whose appereance on the series I speculated upon my last To Heart 2 review. Her cronic ilness that lefts her bedridden at her home for most of the time doesn't stops her from deeply ... analyzing the characters and personalities of everyone around her and making assumptions about them. And of course, supporting her elder sister on her crush on Takaaki anytime she is able to.

Kusugawa Sasara: the seemingly imposing and authoritative school student's council president who turns out to be a massive ball of nerves and shyness in her more personal aspects. Oh, and also turns out to have a massive crush on Takaaki also (seriously, Yuuji put it best, Takaaki isn't even trying and yet he is stealing all of the girls, haha).

And of course, how could I forget: Maako Asagiri, known simply as "Maryan" to those close to her. A chaotic "beign" whose only purpose in life seems to be to cause as much mayhem and disorder in all situations as humanly possible.And why is she that way? You may ask, and well, to be completely honest with you, I have as little idea as you have also, lol. However, she is that way and isn't going to change, so you better put up with her, haha.

Now, why I am talking to you about basic information on these girls that you might aswell get by simply looking at their biography on MAL? Well, very simple: the fact that this OVA exist essentially to introduce these characters makes them inseparable from the identity of this IP as a whole. And as such, speaking about them is also a way to almost directly speak about this OVA as a whole.

And seriously, what else would you like me to speak about? On this OVA you will see a pretty typical beach and school festival episode that you sure would enjoy should you be like of these things beforehand (especially the school festival one, wich is perhabs the most chaotic thing I have seen out of the To Heart franchise as a whole) and enjoys a somewhat better quality when it comes to animation quality and has its own unique opening and ending songs and slides. Pretty cool, isn't it?

To Heart 2 OVA isn't bad, really, and I see how you could extract entertainment from a product such as this one. Go ahead, watch it, you probably will enjoy it more than I did, lol.
