This may have to do with colors if you look at it the right way, but while we're being straightforwards, it does not have much to do with colors.Īll in all, this OVA was outstanding. The only odd thing about this episode was its title, "Shinonome." It differs from the rest of the episodes, whose titles revolve colors, ie: "Moonlight Purple, Bitter Orange", Shinonome means "early dawn," meaning when the eastern sky begins to show light before the sun appears. While the OVA is told from Hiromi's perspective, it does include almost all the main characters of the anime, with the infamous Izumi-Miroku rooftop battles, and even a debut of our bespectacled beauty. But what it really revolves around is Akihito's dream in the beginning of episode 2 of the anime, tying itself in at that point. The OVA really delves into Akihito's past before the series, making up for the backstory that he had, but never touched on, in the anime. It feels like the first arch of the anime all over again, lacking the unneeded fanservice that accompanied the episodes after the Hollow Shadow. It's action-packed, serious, with the occasional "onii-chan!" to fill the empty spaces. This OVA was definitely something I didn't know I needed until it was given to me.
