THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
When the raw was available, I immediately decided to watch it, not even caring for probably missing half of the dialogue. I'll take that for granted, hehe. I can't wait for aarin now. Anyways, I and probably many others, were quite ancticipating this second release. To be honest, I am a bit disappointed.

Of course, it showed the first encounter between Taki and Klaus, (which must have been at least five years prior to the first OVA, since Taki looked like he was around 15 or so), which was quite cute, but a bit out of place to be honest. (But yeah, I guess that's usual stuff for yaoi, they just 'meet' their partner somewhere completely random)

And this is some spoilery stuff..
But remember how

So. Cliché? Yes. Smut? Ye-s. Probably won't disappoint any fangirl, that's for sure. I am, though.

7/10

(The avi file I watched didn't have the omake, so I can't comment on that. Hope it surfaces somewhere soon.)

Well, today i watched the second OVA of Maiden Rose with the spanish subs and I must admit that I'm a little bit disappointed, or well..maybe a little more. I agree with all of you that it was too short or random or call it whatever you want to. I've read the manga and I must say that it's more than magnificent and it doesn't end like in the second OVA. If you wanna see true and interesting action read the manga. There you can find all the answers you need, it's best if you read it from the very begining. Also you can find the entire manga (VOL I and VOL II) on mangafox.com and the third VOL on YouTube (the third one isn't finished yet, Inariya, the writer is still working on it).I hope this can help you.

I'd hoped it be more yaoi-ish like the first OVA. :c

This was so bad I don't even know where to start---
No, I'd rather not start pointing out the problems at all, I might end up writing too much.

Taki is one awesome uke. Awesome when he came for Klaus. The last five minutes weren't neccesary. They were in the first episode, but not in this one. Well, I do like those ears, but... no. I'm doubting between a 6 or a 7.

Haha, I ended up giving it 7/10 but I think I overrated it. To me it ended up being so horrible it's good... I mean, Klaus's overly huge chin, Taki's terrible sex voice, I kept giggling through all of the episode at the amount of narm. I shall probably read the manga later on so I can at least understand what was going on.

That's what I thought too. The sex scenes seemed a bit more sweeter and a lot less in general, but it wasn't "bad".

It def shouldn't have been a whole separate episode though.

but it was an OVA --of course there's more in the manga (that's how they get you)

i'm grateful for the way this one turned.
--it was so sweet, totally what i needed after that angsty first episode!
(Klaus x Taki are now one of my favorite couples!<3)

I was wondering about this OVA when I saw AMVs in youtube, and kind of had high rating, too based on the AMVs. The end made me dropped one.

Damn, Taki's too good looking!

Oh man, those smut scenes tho.

The plot was okay, I guess. Too much rape for my tastes. Also, those weird furry chibi shorts at the end...Skipped all of them.

Gonna read the manga probably.

Awe, the chibis are always so cute! I laughed when the doctor's crutches turned into blades, and he wanted to kill Klaus like last time. A poor soldier chased after Taki, to put on his clothes again! XD Although, it was sweet that Klaus took care of Taki in the past, when he wasn't used to Western food, so it's great to see our commander take care of his knight. :)

That ending, though... It was actually sweet. It was a little different from the manga, but it was a good way to end the anime. You see how important Klaus is to Taki, since he tells his knight to not go far away from his reach. And seeing Klaus and Taki's past together... Since Taki has so much pride, and needs to fulfill his duty of protecting his people, Klaus knew the only way they could be together is through their master-knight relationship. Someone like Taki would certainly, never consent to living a peaceful, farm life, although it's clear that was Klaus's dream life with him. </3

There really is a feeling of fate, here. The two met ten years ago in Taki's country, and then they met again at school, in Klaus's country. It definitely means something that Klaus has been so drawn to Taki for so many years, and hasn't forgotten him at all... I'd like to see the story from Taki's perspective too.
