School Days: Valentine's Day

Just picked up the Magical Heart Kokoro-chan OVA which made me realize that I hadn't seen the Valentine's Day OVA. Quick notes on Otome Katou and Sekai's mom before the MHKC OVA post.

I still find Otome Katou to be plenty hawt, ponytail and all. Her 'training' for Kotonoha helped too.

The trembling lips scene was terrific too. Reminded so much of a line from KOTOKO's Kannazuki no Miko ED - Agony, which refers to trembling lips in the dark that so powerfully conveys strong yet repressed desire.
I've been thinking about my previous, very brief entry about Otome; to elaborate, I found her character interesting because, despite her deep and longstanding feelings for Makoto, she was able to make the break, walk away from him and, thus, save herself. It took a certain strength and I envied and admired that in her.




Of course, in the context of this OVA which is absolutely wacky, superfluous and thus great fun, Otome's main role is as a rival to Sekai and a co-tormenter of Makoto.



As noted by Hinano, one new thing about this OVA of note is Sekai's mom. She *definitely* goes onto the MILF list.




ONEECHAN GA TABETAIIII~~~~~!!!
Oh yeah, there's also lots of Oniichaning from Kokoro who also wears a disturbing 'I am the present' type of outfit. But I'm not screencapping it. You can ask the forces of Loli-S.I.S.C.O.N. for that if you are so inclined...

Well, if they’d gone THIS route instead of the soap opera, I suspect they’d have had a lot more fans… and fewer ‘nice boat’ comments.

W4, the blog name stays. Hontou ni! Registered the domain for it, sunk costs blah blah.
Haesslich, but if they didn’t have the original Nice Boat doramaz, this OVA wouldn’t be half as funny.
