I started watching the anime and instantly fall in love with it. Since I was curious about Chise's past and I didn't want to wait a whole week for the next episode, I took a look on the OVA. I'm so glad I did so. These 3 eps. were really enjoyable, with beautiful art and great soundtrack. It's like a mini story, completely different from the main plot, hence you don't have to worry about spoilers (maybe some really small ones, but nothing that would ruin your first time experience). Regardless you are currently watching the series or planning to start, I highly recommend you ... to check out Hoshi Matsu Hito.

Don't rate any anime after the first episode, whether you liked it or not. That was the most important message this series taught me. As much as I loved the first ep. and thought it will be the best anime of the season, that much I had to be disappointed in the following ones. Let me tell you the best part of the anime: the opening and ending is pretty decent. Ok, that was all the positives I could say. Now let see the problems. Storytelling is not great at all. The anime tries to compress 3 mangas into 12 eps and the way it ... does is mixing these. It gets a bit confusing in the initial episodes, but gets cleared out later, so that's fine. Still, there are many unnecessary parts. The art style is not outstanding, but not bad either. The most irritaiting thing has to be the characters. Not only are most of them annoying (with a lot of artificial drama), but also stupid. They don't learn from their former mistakes and imo a 5 year old child is smarter than these high school students. So is it enjoyable at all? Well, a bit, yes. Especially if you are new to animes or just simply have low expectations. I give it a 4/10 but at the same time I highly recommend everyone to avoid the series, mostly for that it's not worth your free time. On the other hand, if the story is appealing to you then go and watch Another, it's way better and has similar topics.
