	You know what I thought it was really great up until the ending. I was like HELL YEAH THIS IS GUNNA BE GOOD and then a minute later it ended and it felt like they forgot to do an ending. Kind of upsetting, I hope its just because they are gunna do a second OVA or something >>; Was sweet, but at the same time horribly disappointing

	quote Kanon I believe I can sum up my feelings about the whole thing with one word. 'wat?' Those were my thoughts exactly. 40 minutes of buildup for one line that doesn't explain anything and barely mangages to tie the two "stories" together. They could have at least added the original BRS song during the climax of the fight. It would have been better if they just choose either world and developed it more rather than this mixup. Good thing I wasn't expecting anything much from it anyways. ------------------- Anime ~ Twitter

	I was actually impressed with it on a whole, but the ending (after the credits) really has to have a follow-up, if there's not another OVA, that will be one iffy ending. Hearing BRS would have been nice, they played a couple different remixes, but never the original. Spoiler: Spoilers (I forget names easily) I really liked how they linked together the two worlds, at first it left me really confused, the switching back and forth. I saw the resemblances between BRS-Miku and the main character pretty fast, but didn't link miss-odd-name with her other-world counterpart until when the two met in the BRS-realm; at which point I started trying to guess what was going on, if it was the future, symbolism, etc. How they eventually linked the two worlds was a pretty good idea, but almost felt disappointing with the lack of any sort of explanation. "OBTW TRANSPORTATION TO A DIFFERENT DIMENSION LOL" doesn't make any sense. Even if it was a flimsy sci-fi explanation, something would have been nice. But for the actual confusion aspect of the whole thing, I thought it fit. Really glad I watched it, enjoyed it a lot. ------------------- [twitter]

	I saw the connection instantly because of what I saw in the trailer and I was just waiting for them to show how they were connected and was disappointed there, ------------------- Anime ~ Twitter

	From the trailer alone, I figured it was going to be able a girl who see's a star, and the star transforms her into BRS and then she battles evil.. ------------------- Who will survive?

	So just finished with GhostMember's streaming of this. Was pretty good. Having the split storytelling as it switches between the school life and the fantasy fighting. It was very easy to draw the connections between the characters from both sides and the way they eventually tie the two together was pretty cool. I think it just suffers from a lack of explanation in areas. Especially with the way it ends because they introduce elements and never followed up on them. Spoiler:Ending spoilers Like the white haired girl (I think she has white hair anyway) is shown briefly in the fantasy part but is never shown again. From the ending scenes we are led to assume it's the fantasy alternate of the "super coach" girl but since it ends there it never goes into it. ------------------- Fire Emblem Awakening - You Want It.

	You sort of have to watch this keeping in mind that it's basically Hatsune Miku fan-service (I mean that in the traditional sense, not the pervy pantsu-shot sense). When you do that, you realize it's got good production values, it's action-packed, the story is okay if a bit full of holes (but come on, like I said, it's fan service), and it's enjoyable. I think it more or less does exactly what it should. ------------------- "Sit back, listen in, and sip some moe with us." ~The ANIME FORUM

	Actually, BRS's original design is supposed to be unrelated to Hatsune Miku. The artist tagged the artwork on pixiv as "Original Character", and the Miku resemblance was popularised after supercell made the song using Vocaloid. Also, I feel that rather than being full of holes, the story just leaves a lot of things to interpretation. I personally think that Yuu was the one that caused Dead Master to possess Yomi, which is why she was watching their fight and her reaction at the end after Yomi returned.

	Yeah I had a feeling that was the intention but even without really being into the whole Vocaloid craze it's pretty good. Huh, that's an interesting take on it GM. Never really considered that. I just figured it was leaving a cliffhanger for Yuu to go off into the fantasy world. ------------------- Fire Emblem Awakening - You Want It.

	GhostMember, I honestly didn't know that. I only heard about it in reference to Miku. Didn't it get popularized as a Miku thing though? Isn't that why this OVA was even worth making? ------------------- "Sit back, listen in, and sip some moe with us." ~The ANIME FORUM

	Just in case people don't know, the Real World section of the OVA happened first, after our main girl sees the star, it picks up after BRS is beaten by the girl at the beginning, and then all BRS sections come afterwards. The movie would have made more sense if they organized it that way. BRS had the Blue Eye Flame because of her human buddy. -------------------

	I dunno if you guys already discussed this elsewhere but AnimeNewsNetwork confirmed there's gonna be a proper Anime in the Spring schedule 2012 The OVA was really just a prologue / teaser to get people interested, so the lack of answers in some respect didn't really bother me. That's what the Anime will be for ^.^ ------------------- [DanMorrisonAnimation]
