Happy ending^^

Like expected, they struggle with their feelings, get some help from their friends, come together and marry. Some exaggeration with the cherry petals in the end but huh..
Story evolving around Kotori is so much better than Nemu.

Oh we already know its going to be a happy ending, but YAY! nonetheless!

There is no such thing as exaggeration when it comes to magic! I mean hell look at Clannad! Nemu's story isn't all that bad, but I'm a Kotori fanboy so my views will forever be biased towards her side. If anything Sakura needs her own -if series...

But anyway...where the hell is Hina-chan!? :@:@:@

I believe they rashed through some parts, some which I didn't really like and could've been better.
- I didn't really liked Kotori singing near the tree, would've been better if it was just background music and her talking about stuff about the past.
- Didn't like the make up between Kotori and Asakura, was too short..
- Didn't like the marriage thing, but what would you expect.

Overall ok episode, I liked the first one better.

It was only OK. Just because seemed rushed like two episodes were not enough to tell the other story. Cute still... if only more Miharu.

Ending song made me smile. :-)

This sparked my interest only because Nemu died. :D
I think out of all the girls, she has to be my least favorite.
This seemed pretty bland to me, but that's how Da Capo is in my opinion... well I couldn't stand watching after the first series.All I liked was the kiss transition.

Looking for > Da Capo if: Another Story featuring Moe Mizukoshi

o i was so moved i felt like smiling at the end song
so...the kids juiichi had in dacapo 2 were kotori`s too? or is it "if" because it just how we would liked it to be?

So basically the sakura blossoms were just a sign of blessing from Nemu for those of you who didn't know. It was alright but it won't compare to other VN anime such as Clannad or Kanon.

Finally, ep 2 arrived. I have to say, this OVA was good for at least one thing if nothing else: it made me remember how frickin' much I love Da Capo. The themes, the songs, the characters. It's more than just x*24 minutes of animation with sound. Da Capo is a feeling.

With that said, on to the bad things:
- I forgot how much the character designs suck in this version. Most of the time, Kotori looked like Karasuma from School Rumble. Plus, Sakura had ridiculous ears.
- No boxmatch between Mako and Suginami
- The worst part: after 1.5 episodes of angst, Sakura waltzes in like a living deus ex machina, talks some sense into Junichi and kaboom, everything's solved, we all love each other
- That pissed me off so badly that this was the first time Kotori's song didn't make me emotional
- They ripped off Nemu's wedding goddamnit!! Hail Nemu!!

With that said I'll lower my ratings to 8/10. But I'm glad I could have at least this much Da Capo again. I wish for a Da Capo II S3!

That's right. All we need is more alternative love for the pink haired ones.

Hmm. I'm probably Nanaka > Kotori, but I have to sleep on that.

Perhaps, I should have watched Da Capo, both seasons before seeing this ova.
Yes you should have. Before DC II actually, but it's never too late. Everything will make a lot more sense.

And DC.if. doesn't have anything to do with DC II as it is set after the first season of the original Da Capo with an alternative setting.

The fact that they struggled but got back together was sweet,like a somewhat true scene in love. 9/10

I gotta admit, it felt kind of awkward for me :s
As much as I love Kotori, I don't like that 5 minute musical x_x
and I though the time skip was a bit ZOOM

Oh well, I love Da Capo anyway :D

I really liked it... maybe except the ending.. I think it was too fast. I wanted to see the scene where Junichi ask Kotori to marry him. Except that it was really nice.

dude, this is an alternative of Da Capo, so it doesn't have any concern with the Da Capo SS.
Mean: the story can be start like after the Da Capo 1st season end, or it just start right away without any connection with D.C. or D.C.SS.

I still haven't watched this anime yet, but I'll watch it after I finish D.C.I.F.

Kotori is my favourite D.C. girl but these two OVAs were a big disappointment.

It should have been a happy and fun experience, instead we got an hour long angst fest. All thanks to Nemu, even in death she still poisons every other girl's relationship

So... Kotori could only win if Nemu is dead? Really? That's pathetic. I mean okay, let's give her an alternative ending where Kotori wins, but why this way? This feels like she never even had a chance if Nemu was alive and the authors had to kill Nemu out of pure pity for Kotori. The drama was pretty mediocre, the OVA was overall okay.

Completely pointless drama. You wanna clean up your dead sister's room after one year? How dare you, I'll run away crying because... dunno. Sakura's reasons also made no sense at all, why would you forget about your sister just because you clean her room? Horrible OVA...

This is so stupid, idk whats so mean about cleaning nemu's room and trying to move on. It's not like he'll forget about her just because of that, but he'll just keep being reminded of nemu of he won't do anything. And like he said, he wants to pay more anttention towards the people around him. Urgggggg. Someone explain to me please, i think Im just dumb, becuase i just do not get why is it mean and bad.

This should've been the canonical ending to Da Capo. Kotori should've won regardless of whether Nemu is alive or dead. Actually, I prefer Nemu alive. I would love to see her suffer as she sees Junichi and Kotori getting married. Screw Nemu and her selfishness and bitch attitude. Nemu reminds me of my ex so much it pisses me off, and they also share a similar hairstyle.

I really despise the fact that Nemu had dozens of ep. dedicated to her and I just ended up hating her as the series progressed. Kotori deserves a 12 ep. season of her own. She's the best waifu in the series. She's such a nice girl, so pretty and has great personality! She deserves all the love she can get! 8/10

BTW, I fell for Kotori so hard, I ended up buying one of her rarest figurine. I didn't care if I had to pay extra for it. It's the first figurine I've ever bought and probably the last. lol

Only a certain anime has an "alternate" route..
Which make it epic, so we didn't compare or complain about sh*t..
