Pretty good but also pretty bad adaptation.

The story is essentially original as it's not part of the original VN. The story being changed or converted when adapting a VN is not weird, like in Kanojo x Kanojo x Kanojo, Aneimo2 or Resort Boin, to say some of my all time favorites that changed the story to make it more cinematic. In this case, the situation we see in the OVA is not impossible though, it's more like it didn't had the chance to happen.

The characters are pretty much the same and don't feel any incongruences between the original VN and the original story for the ... OVA, only the main heroine had her villainism buffed and the protagonist may or may not have different motivations (it depends on perspective).

The animation is soft and fluid, it's comfortable to look at and aged pretty well... Except for the scenes when they shadowed the characters in an already dark location to add more "mystery/drama" to the scene, that looks awful.

A problem in specific I have (more like a thorn than anything else) is the mix of flashback/flashforward story telling they use, I FREAKING HATE THAT. Showing the end and then saying "And this is how it happened" is something I hate and always will.

The story, animation and scene direction are pretty good, only the the jumping between before and after is bad.

OLE-M don't seem to go well together with adaptation, but this time it wasn't their fault...

The story is not only all over the place but also stranded quite far from the original work (most of the girls missing and the first scene being an orgy goes completely against the heavy harem thematic of the VN) and if you don't know about the VN the ending just "happen" somehow as Sakura's role as the main heroine was hardly on the spotlight, I know that OLE is not famous for the plot and story part but IT IS THERE, it's not bad and they could have ... used it.

The animation seems good at first glance (as art) but one animated CG of the VN is more fluid that this two anime chapters.

The audio was bad, specially on the 2nd chapter as it was completely broken (don't know if the file was corrupted or the original has the same problem).

Do not recommend this one, play the VN and the sequel instead, they're pretty good...

One of the best I've seen and my all time favorite even now.

The studio did a great job adapting the original VN and the art and animation is great in general (this is from 2009 and the animation and writhing is better that some adaptations nowadays).

It's hard for me to choose one single girl as my favorite and I love the simple "Daily life" scenario.

The only bad point about it is that it's too short, even the new version of the third chapter just added a few scenes and the studio never even tried to adapt the sequel of the visual novel (one of the ... best sequels for a VN I've played) which I think is a real waste.

More than a review, this is a life story...

I always had a strange feeling with this one, I really liked it but I was not satisfied, I felt something was missing.

It is listed as an original work, but the plot and the development were too much like they would be an adaptation from another work so I decided to look for it, but as the name was simple AF I knew I had a long way to go.

I searched in manga, but after long I found nothing, next I looked into VN but the result was the same.

There were three possibilities left, either it was ... the direct ova adaptation of an erotic LN (not common even now), lost media or as even MyAL says, it was never an adaptation but a 100% original work.

No matter which of the three, it meant the same, a harder than a manga or VN to find or obtain LN tittle would be as good as non-existent, the same with lost media.

At that time I pretty much gave up...

Going forward ten years:

I was using one of my title fishing methods, "looking for characters with traits I like or that happened to get my attention", in this case, it was "Big boobed nuns that gave an aura of fluffiness" (...yep, that specific), and browsing that not small number of characters I found, there was one in specific that gave me a bit of a familiarity feeling but I just ignored it, "She already looks the part so I'll just check the tittle" is what I though as I opened the main page, I didn't recognize the name but I remembered the creators name from other tittles I knew and luckily the page had a synopsis so I read it... What I found was:

"Tomoru Hende is a young man who has begun working at a mansion owned by the wealthy Tenma family as a servant. While working there he makes friends with the two daughters of the family, Cecile and Yuria. One night he’s visited by a succubus who declares she’ll take his soul but will grant him any wish as a last request; a succubus who bears an unmistakable resemblance to Cecile."

...

Something was wrong... I checked the tittle... Still didn't recognized it, but the synopsis was too familiar to be a coincidence. That's when I instinctively clicked on the icon that opened the characters section...

WHAT THE ACTUAL SHITTING FUCK?!!!

Different tittle.

Different names.

No mention in the page of ANY related work or adaptation.

BUT THE FREAKING PLOT AND THE CHARACTERS WERE THE SAME?!!

ONLY SOME TRAITS AND THE COLOR PALLET IN THE CHARACTERS WAS DIFFERENT!!

The reason why the nun I found was so familiar was because she look exactly the same... BUT WITH DIFFERENT COLORS!!!

HOW THE HECK WAS I SUPPOSED TO FIND IT LIKE THAT?!!!

I don't know what kind of trouble happened between Waffle and Digital works or milky but I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this is freaking stupid...

Here some links (See this studios that make millions a year!! Was it that hard?! Just copy and paste!!):
