| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This was actually better than I was expecting. The beginning felt really random, the ending was abrupt and also random, but in the middle was a fairly funny story of two guys getting wrapped up in a small adventure while trying to escape a dreary existence in poverty. Kinda felt like it was meant to be the pilot episode for a series that never got the green light. I wanted to see more of what happens to them. |
| If this was longer, it could've been something good. The way it is now, is like snippets of a movie put together into a long-ass trailer. |

That's kinda the impression that I got from it too. I kinda feel like a fair amount of these old OVAs are pilots that didn't get picked up or series that ended up getting shelved that were released on video to make some money off of them anyhow. |

| Yeah I agree with the posts above, this would have been really great if they expanded the middle a little bit, it was the best part of the OVA, they escaped the yakuza problem too fast, and the ending was kinda weird, the two companion girls would have added more if they joined them on there adventures, I'll give this a 7, it had potential, but unfortunately most old OVAs are wasted.  |
