This OVA really god choice for short watching as a movie, it gets you instantly hooked and holds to the end, but being and short have a lot of downsides that you can find after watching Legend of the Heroes: Trails in the Sky.
First of all short anime equals short story and here you can see one of strange way of telling it: they cut beginning and ending of it (full story can be found while playing the game) and i think it makes more time for pure action. Other than what is good beside few unexplained things that you have to figure
...
on your own or wait till they slowly and partially reveal to you.
Sound was good nothing too fancy but i loved opening and ending melodies. Art and animation was exceptional especially outstanding action scenes. As rpg game adaptation they truly focused on combat animation and kind of showing character difference in their fighting style and weapons. Similarly all character personalities can be seen just from the look at them (clothes + weapons + face and eyes ("we both have same killer eyes") : hot head tomboy girl, closed inside assassin, lone wolf manly fighter, hard outside little robo girl, older evil friend, other evil sister and THE Leader. It is shame you cant learn almost nothing about them. I adored Estelle (till she started doing stupid things) and i like cool "I can win alone" chars like Joshua, so this show became wonderful journey.
This OVA was just perfect for me I loved instant action and super good fighting scenes, I let lack of the story to get trough and just enjoyed the show.
