| hell yes that explains a lot. I'm glad OD didn't die after all... now let's see what's coming in the next season. Gatcha~! |
| One of the best series I've seen in quite a while, but the ending was too rushed and thus unsatisfying. I'm glad they brought this to help resolve my previous complaint. 9/10 I'm definitely looking forward to the next season |
| Hmm.. so that's what happened. Good episode. Now I wonder who will be be the villain in season 2. But anyway, looking forward to the sequel! |

| Katze the tsundere |
| Hajime and her senpai (lol I forgot his name Sugane?) are too cute. Only thing I'd really like to see from a second season is romantic development between the two. |
"Komugi, are you there?" |
| Good thing I watched this. I was soooo confused. |

Ahahaha, I'm really glad that they're semi(?)-canon now! Hajime is definitely my favorite character in the series and an amazing person. Sugane, overwhelmed with admiration and touched by Hajime's selfless action, just couldn't help running up and glomping her with all his might. D'aww. Anyways, this episode is a must-see. It was a little hard to watch Hajime trying so hard to force Katze's NOTE into her chest ;_; must've hurt her a great deal. And the emotional OST that played during that scene just added more salt to (my) wound. Though I have to wonder -- how exactly did Hajime make Katze into a NOTE just by, erm, kissing him? My guess would be that, while the latter was in his state of shock, Hajime used her Designer's NOTE power to somehow transform his body into a NOTE 0_0; Wow. |
 |
| I'm so glad they released this. I was left unsatisfied and confused with the ending to season 1. With this, it covered a majority of the plot points that were missing in the final episode. Which is always great to see! Can't wait till season 2! Gatcha~! |

| I'm goonna cry ...really.... I love Gatchaman ... I miss this anime so much. Hidayat246 said: Hajime is easy-going type and she never interest in something like "love" Hajime is the only who can bear the weight of Katze-san after all.... they need to have a common point. Gatcha~ |
 100% of all dead people have never complained about being dead. So I guess it isnt that bad. |
| Pretty good OVA. I thoug OD died in episode 12 of the anime but he's alive. Can't wait for the second season! Gatcha! |
| Wow, that was way better than i thought it was going to be. Cant wait for S2. |

| That scene when Hajime was shoving the notebook into her chest made me feel... uncomfortable. Also Hajime and Katze are a weird ass ship.. |
 |
| I liked this OVA quite a lot more than the series. I wish the rest of the episodes would've been dedicated to more interesting events like these. Maybe we start to know something about the characters in the 2nd season? |
| “We see what we want to see” |
| well i definitely didn't enjoy the part when she shoved katsu into her chest, it almost broke my heart to see her in pain. another weird thing i've noticed about hajime, she's like the first character i would only want as a friend. i'm no perv or anything but for other characters there has always been that option of saying i wouldn't mind if she were mai waifu, but for hajime i don't feel that option exists. |
| This OVA was absolutely necessary. I didn't hate the ending, but as a lot of other people were complaining about, so many things were implied, or slightly hinted at, so this dug a bit deeper into those issues. Even the recycled footage had a lot of stuff added in that just mad everything FEEL better. Hajime talking with Rui and the PM, and then that longer interaction with MESSY. That little girl who said her dad was going to die, Rui teleported to him and brought him back with the notebook. Umeda seems to have finally gotten his shit together and his priorities straight, family first. Utsutsu and OD (who we now know LIVED) visiting a memorial for people who died. Rui officially part of the Gatchaman team. And the big scene where we finally learn what happened to Katze. That was the first time Hajime was ever not happy and even showed pain, and it look awful. She didn't just step out of the smiley zone, she looked like she was going through hell itself. Now we know that NO he is not the scarf, he did get absorbed. Love that single douchebag who did a review for this and gave it a 4, because he didn't enjoy it. Still found a need to comment on the art, sound and characters even though they're the exact same as the last 12 episodes. Lets ignore the fact that it added a shit ton of details and info, both big and small. I'm going to rate it a 4 because I didn't get enjoyment out of Berg Katze and the 3 characters they focused on. .....LOL. Ok. Fucking asshole. |
| Deus ex Mary Sue is at it again. This story had merit. But it's poor execution and bland characters made it very mediocre. and this conclusion was terrible. |
Honoka is my Hero! Click Me! |
| Oh boy to see this anime again for a single episode sure brought me totally in the mood for the second season! Really love the setting and characters! All in all a pretty solid special. |
 |
| We have again this Ichinose Hajime's abnormal retarded personality and an alternative ending. In which she buried Katze inside of her to be one of her. Inside of her boobs? I just watched this so that I could watch now the 2nd season. |

| ..odd episode. somehow saw.. well. gatchaman crowds generally is odd anime. It has this extreme bright tone to it, whilst really sad feeling as well. Characters are just great.. world of eccentric people...unique and interesting It feels as dreamworld for eccentric people who IRL are denied.. |
 |
| "Well, that was weird"... was what I thought, and literally a second later one of the messages on the screen said the exact same thing. :P I can see one problem with how the Prime Minister is now. What if Russian troll factories start to interfere with GALAX? If he listens to the people using the app and their opinions, he should know that the most vocal groups are usually not those with the most members. |
| Somehow I got teary eyed when Hajime shook that guy's hand instead of signing an autograph haha Tachikawa prison surely didn't look like one...and there was a mistake in the coloring of Umeda-san's bag (first blue, then brown) So Katze is...Hajime? And everybody else? A visual representation of people's evil nature? The other side of the coin, together with Hajime? Whose memorial was that? It looked weird. People who died from Katze's "games"? Anyway, that was nice, though there're still things to be resolved in the second season, I guess. It's interesting how Katze has been committing crimes by kissing people and assuming their identity, and now it's the first time Katze was kissed by another person...and got absorbed afterwards. Symbolic. |

| I guess I kinda understand why they had a "directors cut" episode 12, but I wish they were able to just go for it and have done a 40ish minute finale. Didn't hate the original ending but it was too unresolved for my viewing pleasure. This tied most things up nicely for me, mainly the big things that I was left wondering in the original episode 12. I gotta say, I'm pleasantly surprised by this series. |
