The OVA was included on a DVD that came with the limited first edition of the 20th volume of the "Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei" manga, and was a long-awaited new episode for fans. This work continues the unique worldview and characters of the original work, while developing the story from a new perspective. The powerful team of director Akiyuki Shinbo and producer Shaft has been reunited, and the film stands out for its visual beauty and unique direction. Director Shinbo's distinctive camerawork and sense of color further deepen the worldview of the original work and have the power to draw the viewer in. Shaft's drawings are also meticulous down to the smallest detail, and the characters' expressions and movements are depicted very realistically. The story revolves around Itoshiki Nozomu's interactions with the students of class 2-H, where he is assigned. Itoshiki Nozomu is a teacher who thinks negatively about everything, and the story depicts how his hopeless perspective affects his students, and how he is influenced by them in return. In particular, the interactions with the unique students, such as Kafura Kafuka's positivity, Kizu Chisato's punctuality, and Tsunetsuki Matoi's stalker-like nature, are a highlight of the series. The cast is also impressive, with the voice actors' performances bringing out the charm of the characters, including Kamiya Hiroshi as Itoshiki Nozomu, Nonaka Ai as Fuura Kafura, and Inoue Marina as Kizu Chisato. In particular, Kamiya Hiroshi's despairing tone of delivery faithfully reproduces the atmosphere of the original work, leaving a strong impression on viewers. In addition, the performances that make use of the individuality of each character add depth to the story. Music is also an important element, and the opening theme "Ringo Mogire Beam!" and ending theme "Kurama Shinjuu Soushisouai" help to liven up the atmosphere of the work. The opening theme "Ringo Mogire Beam!" is particularly impressive, sung by Kenji Ohtsuki and the Despair Girls, and has become a song that symbolizes the theme of the work. The ending theme "Kurama Shinjuu Soushisouai" has lyrics and a melody that seem to reflect the feelings of Itoshiki Nozomu, deeply moving the viewer. This OVA is recommended not only for fans of the original work, but for anime fans in general. With a story that intertwines unique humor and deep themes, unique characters, and the beautiful visual expression of Director Shinbo and Shaft, "Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei" will provide viewers with new excitement and surprises.
