I think this was the best from all OVAs.
The first one was pretty much horrible and barely watchable, the second was OK, I liked it, but I think this one was slightly better than the previous one.
I guess the animation and graphics were just a little bit better as well. Of course, there were some lazines and if you play some fightscene in slowmo, you can see a lot of ugly solutions, but that's normal now (what a shame).
The story was cool, I loved that fight in the manga as well. Eclair is a deadly fighter but also a troll character itself, so you shouldn't take this episode too serious. When he was about outrunning a car in the highway, I was like WTF, I laughed so hard! :D
The fights were OK, I only expected a little bit detailed fight again from Miu against the french henchwomans, shame they missed it. Also, I expected something after the ending, like "stay tuned for the series" or something like that... I hope they'll announce that anyways a little bit later.
And ofc, Sakaki was epic as always.
So, it was a good OVA, and overall the three makes a watchable and enjoyable series. If there will be an anime, and the overall quality of each episodes will hit the second or third one's, it would be awesome!

Overall: 8 out of 10.

And here's that skipped arc with Christopher. Good. Where's my Shigure past arc?
Though still no disciple uniform wtf. They're really making him stick to casual clothes ._.
The fight was better here than in the first two, though the fiery punches are a bit of an exaggeration. And let's not forget the obligatory stripping of Miu. Those remaining shreds of her outfit are really conveniently covering the good parts ._. And I'm amazed at how many of those she has given the financial situation in Ryouzanpaku.

Decent episode and OVA overall. If they're gonna do another season which I don't think will happen, they really have to give him the disciple uniform already.

Why do you dissapoint me Kenichi. That was an ok OVA, though it wasn't great at all. Kenichi still has his too nice side, he never got to fight. Even Miu who had a speech about how strong and how Kenichi sticks with what he thinks is right, jumps into the fight between them(way to show how much you believe in him) and then Shio wraps up all the fighting, the same as the last OVA.

I really enjoyed this one, it was nice to see some of the good old stuff animated, and yeah, they left out some of the parts, but they were not that important as I remember right.

I hope they do more of these, they can take their time ofc. :D

I really love this anime and appriciate that they are trying to even make anything out of this. BUT. These OVA episodes is not what I want. If they are going to detroy the amazing manga episodes I've read with jumping forward every episode and killing the story then I'm not sure that's what I want.. Are they just going to show the fights in D of D or what? It's crazy and what about furunji miu and elders voices? I think this is shit and that they should focus on really doing this anime.. The manga is really popular and extremely good it's just a waste.. :/

Man you guys are crazy to think 1st OVA was horrible and this one was good.

The first one was the only one that Kenichi actually did any real fighting. The second one was pretty much him defending himself and this last one he did nothing. Very disappointed.

I was really looking forward for more although it seems that they will not make a continuation anymore. It was just okay. Better than the 1st 2 OVAs.

A bit of Shigure fanservice, still not enough though. That guy reminded me a bit of Vega from Street Fighter, though not as focused on beauty... and from another country... and with a different fighting style xD

It's sad for me to say that this was the point in the manga where my enjoyment in Kenichi went downhill. From this point on, the fights just get really crazy and hard to follow. Although I will say the animation improves the quality of the fights.

sad that they replaced the train fighting scene, woulda been so cool.

from the looks of it seems that the entire OVAs will be a rushed job, hope one day they reboot the series 🙏
