"My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU. New OVA" (hereafter "Yahari OVA") is an OVA released on September 19, 2013. This OVA is based on the light novel "My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU" by Watari Wataru, and the limited edition of the game comes with a brand new original anime Blu-ray as a bonus. It is produced by Brain's Base, directed by Yoshimura Ai, and the production committee includes "This Production Committee is Wrong, As I Expected" and TBS. Below, we will take a closer look at the appeal and reviews of this OVA.

Story and Characters

The story of "Yahari OVA" faithfully reproduces the worldview of the original work while depicting new episodes. The protagonist, Hikigaya Hachiman, is a high school student who avoids contact with others and prefers spending time alone. However, under the direction of Hiratsuka-sensei, the advisor of the Service Club, he solves various problems together with fellow Service Club members Yukinoshita Yukino and Yuigahama Yui. While this OVA is based on the episodes of the original work, it also contains new content for fans as it is a bonus for the limited edition of the game.

The character of Hikigaya Hachiman is portrayed as someone who has difficulty communicating with others, but who acts based on his own beliefs. Yukinoshita Yukino has a cool and intelligent personality, and while she sympathizes with Hikigaya's way of thinking, she also sometimes clashes with him. Yuigahama Yui is a bright and energetic character, and the process of her deepening her relationship with Hikigaya and Yukinoshita is depicted. The relationships and growth of these characters are one of the attractions of the OVA.

Visuals and Music

The visuals of the "Yahari OVA" are highlighted by Brain's Base's careful drawing and direction. The characters' expressions and movements are drawn in detail without compromising the atmosphere of the original work, making it highly visually appealing. In addition, the use of backgrounds and colors is skillful, enhancing the atmosphere of the story.

In terms of music, the theme songs and background music of the OVA bring out the worldview of the original work. In particular, quiet, deep music is used in the scenes depicting Hikigaya's inner thoughts, which has the effect of drawing out the emotions of the viewer. The use of music to reflect the feelings of the characters is also highly praised.
