| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I could only find the raw versions of it, I hope it is subbed soon...and that it will be longer than only two episodes! But any way, has anyone gotten around to seeing the first episode yet? I liked it, just as funny as ever...not to mention Nobue looked kind of silly acting like a monster. The characters also look a bit more older in the faces. Glad to see the voice cast came back!  |
| Subs just came out. Kinda good if you ask me. Loved the OVA even if both parts focused more on Miu. The otherworld part was funny while the drawing seesion was pure win. |
| haha was hilarious like always, missed the teacher who bullied sasazuka xD |
     |
| The new character design is... strange. They look tubby. But it's the same old IM humour. Good stuff. |
| Was all eh at the design at first but when they started talking I just forgot about it. Lost at Mike Hanger and lmao @ Miu's drawing of Chika. Really missed these characters. Loved the whole episode. |
 |
| Loved it. Nice to see the girls back together after all this time. Artwork is a little different this time around but is easy to get used since the characters themselves haven't changed a bit. First off, Miu's vision of the afterlife was completely insane. Even so, her concept of heaven and hell almost made sense. Oni is definitely a good look for Chika. The field trip during the second half was much more laid back and had a more familiar pace. Can't wait for episode two. |
Asako said: Ya, but still very good. Love IM :3The new character design is... strange. They look tubby. But it's the same old IM humour. Good stuff. |
 |
| Well the comedy is still really good, I laughed a lot. But the different animation kinda put me off at first. And I hope some other group besides anime-rg will pick this up, they make too many mistakes. |

| As good as ever! <3 Miu... and the old man :) |
 |
| I HATE the new art direction... (-15 loli stats) Though I do appreciate the Dokuro-chan reference. Ana is a already weird role for Noto Mamiko, but I swear that's not her. I double checked the credits, and it is but still.... >.> |

| Although I had alot of trepidation at first considering the drastic change to the character design from what we've been used to, I have to admit that after watching Miu go through her usual crazy antics (going to the afterlife, drawing friends in fake crazy situations) I completely was able to ignore their looks and just enjoy the show as usual. Still if possible for ep 2, I'd really would like the series to go back to the previous character design. It's more faithful to the Barasui art and easier on the eyes. |
 |
| Damn, that was so funny. I laughed a lot. The animation was okay imo. kevo said: Though I do appreciate the Dokuro-chan reference. Do you mean the spiked metal club? That was no Dokuro-chan reference. Spiked metal clubs are peculiar to Onis. |
| Feels great to see them back :D |
| Plot and art as good as ever, but they should'nt be so tubby. Makes them less childish in my view. In the second part of the episode they did'nt look so round... and just older as everybody says. :) "Sasazuka, go stand over there." XD |
^_^  ^_^ |
| I just downloaded the HQ version of it... Amazing. I really hope that they make another series, if possible while still staying true to the source material. |
| I'm back. |
| That was the funniest IM episode i've seen since the tv series. Miu nearly always amuses me and, yeah, the character designs are wierd. But I was never a fan of this series art work to begin with. |

| The art and animation were different from how they usually were, but anyhow it was a good ep. |
| I just love the comedy. Miu in heaven the first half of the show had me laughing like crazy |
| It certainly was a very funny episode. kevo said: Ana is a already weird role for Noto Mamiko, but I swear that's not her. I double checked the credits, and it is but still.... >.> I lol'd especially hard when Ana suddenly (I think she wasn't like that even in the previous OVA) started speaking exactly the same way and with same intonations as Angol Mois (from Keroro, also by Noto Mamiko). I even expected her to end her sentences with usual "you could say, ...?" routine. |
 |
| hahaha xD Miu with her idiot props xD "Mic", "Hanger", "Mike Hanger ~~" xD |

| This was actually quite awesome, really enjoyed this episode to my surprise I liked it more than the original series, still was all random but they've put an interesting concept in this episode so that's quite nice imo! Lets see what the next episode brings of this small 2 episode ova! |
 |
| Wtf is with those aerial scenes lol. This show needs a fantasy tag now. |
 |
| I am mad at the reviews. Seriously, giving the art a 7 just 'cause they changed the artstyle. Can't you see how smooth it is? It's a solid 9+. Also its a subjective opinon but I think the artstyle only got cuter and better. Akifumi PLS |
 |
| The afterlife part was pure gold. x3 |

| lol, this is an interesting idea.. ;P This whole angels/demons play and stuff.. ;P I think that series got better after the second half, and OVAs really are on the right path too.. I might raise score I initially gave.. |
| Did not think this would be as enjoyable as I have watched now. This was very funny and slapstick and enough to keep me very entertained. Something about this feels a little too much endorsed into the themes tho. It's a little unsettling and makes me think "wtf am I doing watching this" but I guess that also means the team hit the nail on the product. They know what they are doing. As for the episode itself, the nice animation made the afterlife gag quite funny, so it was very enjoyable, and just to see the characters act out different people. The second half was also quite fun to watch, seeing the girls mess with Nobue's time and just having fun out and about. Good episode for real. |
| "R.I.P" Miu. That heaven part was hilarious. Those paintings were cute. Good job, girls! :) |
