Higher score purely for the fun of the concept: A reverse Isekai giving the idea that our peaceful world is the one heroes would want to spend time in.
Now this is an OVA, and it certainly feels like an OVA in every sense. Without reading the original novel myself, I can tell this animation attempts to nod to audiences that read the novelization and includes the characters from it. Still, I believe the characters have some charm to them even as the episode seems to expect you already know them.
The story does a decent job of moving fast by using comedy and then addressing ... characterization with interactions, considering how limited their time was. It captures some of the feel of the concept while focusing mainly on a character's adjustment and development. Although not the most relatable, I found the character's unique hang up to be fun to address, and I think it was described just well enough to see why she acts the way she does.
I'm not the most attentive to art or sound, but I did enjoy the designs of the characters and the animation, and the sound never stood out as out of place to me.
Because of how much fun you can get out of a single episode bringing the concept to life, I do think "Eiyuu" Kaitai is worth a watch.

It really feels like someone decided they wanted to make an anime film based on old horror films from the 90's, but, and here's the kicker, instead of Jason or The Mummy, you get a kawaii anime (zombie) girl. It's got the classic group of teenagers who all are slightly quirky and have weird crushes in a nice love triangle, the plot twist which really isn't very good, and everyone gets picked off.

Not everyone dies, but I feel this film suffers most from the lack of anyone worth cheering for, because there really isn't. Everyone's pretty dumb or despicable in my opinion and by the ... end I didn't care who won. I realized who the protagonist was probably supposed to be but either way was fine with me, so I certainly didn't feel invested. The art and action was pretty decent, even if they completely ignored the fact that a fight should have ended way sooner than it did for plot reasons. The voice acting was fine, the sound was nothing special in that I didn't even really notice it, and yeah it was a little fun. Dry, and some jokes didn't land, but if you want to watch something kind of ridiculous, you can get a few laughs out of it. Overall not really worth your time in my opinion, but it's only an hour so it's some dumb fun.
