Something about Yaoi always bothers me to the point I will always prefer to look at good Yaoi fanfiction or fanart. While there's the whole shotacon and abusive behaviour in a positive light, even without those there's always this. Story
Yaoi could be a good genre and writers could put effort for their OVA and manga but alas they never do.
This is better than most BL I've seen but it got the same problem. A potentially good story but never really fully realized.
Story:(warning: spoiler, do not read second sentence onward if you do not want to be spoilered for this section)
Good idea but bad execution. It's
...
about this boy, Hiroki who died(his death reminds me of Yu Yu Hakusho but whatever how many protagonists actually dies in the beginning anyway?) and got an evil girl Falir trying to get him for herself while his best friend/boyfriend Kanata isn't aware as Falir possesed Hiroki's body to break them up while his spirit tries to stop her and get his own body back.
While this sounds interesting frankly 30 minutes is terribly short to really put much into this. There's a fair bit of the boys childhood which is pretty cute but then there's a section which has this really funky music and god knows what of the kids hanging out which has no point.
Then Hiroki somehow managed to tell Kanata about how his body got possessed which in a way is a blow since frankly it could be more interesting for Falir to try to break them up and him never knowing what really happened.
And eventually Kanata has to fight with Falir which is good and all but all of a sudden wham Falir seems to be redeemed which makes absolutely no sense at all since and she merged Hiroki's soul with his body and helped Kanata prevent his death and all ends well.
It's pitiful really the public could be treated to a good BL story and this is all we get
Art
I'll say this is the best thing from this OVA. The art is cute with round faced people with fluffy hair and slim bodies. I'm a bit bothered about the eyes when not in profile view though, they are a tad too big for my liking. Backgrounds are also very nice
Sound
Eh I'm never good at judging sound but I like the ending song
Character
Flat. No personality and Falir is the worst for the reason I mentioned on story but the other kids seem to have no point in appearing at all
Enjoyment
Still though it's better than most BL for having no blackmail or abuse from our boys or OMG HE'S BETRAYING ME MOMENTS
Overall.
7 out of 10. Better than most BL but could do much much better and that's being generous
