----------------------------------------
A lot of things happened at the start.

Corona & Rio joint 1st in a tournament. Victor defeats Sieg to become champion.

Einhart vacates her world title undefeated and moves to U19

I really liked the fact Rinne became champion but unfortunately she beat yet another random scrub to get it.

I would have had her beat Vivio to earn it, you have a situation where it's the final match and whoever wins becomes champion and here you have Rinne up against the 1 opponent that she just couldn't beat, and she finally gets that big victory over her nemesis and wins that world title.

I am convinced more than ever that the only purpose of this show was to make the previous ViVid characters even more relevant. They did a great job protecting them.

Rinne did defeat Muira but by dubious methods, they had her hold back for no reason the made her eat her own words in order to win that fight instead of just having her fight properly.

Vivio beats her twice in a row and she doesn't get a match against Einhart in a title match or just in general.

If they had Rinne defeat Vivio & Einhart it would have been fine, those 2 would not have looked bad even if they lost, especially since they built Rinne up as this near unstoppable monster at the start of the series, kinda like a female Brock Lesnar but they buried her big time.

That was WWE booking at it's finest right there, build up someone and then have the well established veteran that's been around for over a decade beat them over and over again, Vivio = John Cena.

Anyway back to the OVA.

It's was nice to see them all get along at the beach. I thought it was funny that Fuuka & Rinne couldn't swim but luckily Chantez & Victor helped them out.

I had a lot of fun watching them all play beach volleyball. The big match was Rinne & Fuuka VS Einhart & Sieg but unfortunately Rinne hit the ball so hard she burst it. So everyone had to find different methods to compete.

I laughed a lot when Fabia summoned a kraken that got Els.

It was nice to hear both Rinne & Fuuka say they love martial arts.

Everyone photobombed Rinne & Fuuka's picture that was about to be taken. A perfect way to end the show.

Fun specials, especially the first two that gave a bit more development to Rinne and Fuuka.

We got to hear the OP and ED again which was nice. It's a little weird hearing Rinne without her rough voice again lol

Also, Victor won against Sieg? Well, dayum o_o
Einhart continually moving on to the top.

Wasn't Einhart being paired with Sieg during the little contests just a little OP? lol

Watching this series "Vivid Strike" I realize how much I miss the original "Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha" franchise....

They repeatedly shoved to our faces that they are under 15, then they gave this episode to us... but then under 15 can't have bodies like those unless you can prove otherwise.

Pretty decent after episode of the main series being focused on a beach episode which was pretty nice as well! All in all a pretty solid episode.

It's possible. look at that catch me outside girl bregolli or whatever. Pretty sure she's 15 and looks much older.
Around and around the cycle goes.

The obligatory beach episode. The girls looked so cute in their swimsuits. <3

That under 19 mixed magical battle title match was pretty good. Congrats, Victor! Also, I love Sieg's hairstyle. It looks so cool.

I really liked these specials.
