Title: BETWEEN YOU AND ME

Manager found Capella and became assistant manager of Shion.

Nakasugi has transferred to Kobe, where Shion's concert is held on Saturday. Nakasugi's hosts are not treating her well, even for her schoolmates. She doesn't let her friends in Tokyo know about it.

Hayamiya cannot ignore the accident that happened at the end of season 1.

Shion is having fun in Kobe before the concert, and went to where Nakasugi is in replace of Tsutomu, using the map Hayamiya gave Tsutomu before that. A robot who looks like the doll from Ghost in the Shell took Nakasugi, and at some point she looked like Violet.

During her concert, Nakasugi went as well. (Bye Bye, Shion's song is the ED to OVA)

There was that patient with Nataru.

yea i really love how they animate the fights. sad it was a short one this time though... noting at all like the s2 ending (that was just amazing).

and i lol'd so hard when the guy got his car wrecked again. its always *right after* he buys it too... clearly destiny is telling him hes not meant to have a car.

I missed this show. Nice episode. Loved the fighting scenes.

I hope one day they will make another season or something.

The "To be continued" mention substancially raised my hopes for a third season now :)

Good episode as always, it was on par with the series, which is quite rare for an OVA.

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

We can only hope for a third season. After all We know Gomez (Blond agent looking guy that took on Birdy in s1 and won.) is working for Levi ( the mastermind behind the central tower explosion) We have clues as to what is really going on between Levi and the earth, but not enough to piece anything concrete together beyond them wanting to test the Ryunka on Earth.
Also we don't have a resolution between Tsuomu and Birdy but we do know they are quite close now.
We will never forget those that have fallen for our freedom!

this was referring to the second season.

art quality was low as always.

While I enjoyed the episode, I think I would have enjoyed it more if they hadn't been so focused on bridging the two seasons. Though I suppose its better if you think of this as the first episode of the second season rather than as a stand alone OVA.

Well there is something you are missing guys , this will have a 3 Season probably because it says in the OVA : The Chipher " To be continued " right ? So if you want to make sure you just need to check the date of the Season 2 and the OVA , well Season 2 ended at 27 Mar , and the OVA was deployed on Jul 22 both from the year 2009 so we can hope for a Season 3 , because the OVA is just an episode to unite both seasons but it just came out after the Season 2 ended.

Season 3 here we go!

jacobpaige this is for you.

Came to post this! I immediately thought of her when I saw the marionette.
Good OVA I thought. Hopefully season 2 continues like this since I was a bit disappointed with season 1.

I should of watched this episode before finishing both series. Silly me

Anyways, an alright episode that is refreshing imo. Some fan-service here and there but the talk between Sayaka and Birdy was pleasant. That chase/fight scene was pretty epic and was amusing to watch when Birdy fell on that car. I had to facepalm myself though. Overall, an okay episode for me. 6/10.

O, and nice song at the end there.

Pretty good episode in between the two seasons! Some nice touching things and well the ending song was pretty good! I do wonder if we'll see Sayaka in the second season!

Really nice, I like the slice of life aspect to this anime.
Also, If that ED was fully animated without the black credit screens, it would be one of my favorites.

5/10, unfortunately it did nothing really to add to the main story.

We need a season 3.

That's a blatant homage to Ghost in the Shell, that I'm sure.

That was stupid; first of all why is the rich heiress doing farm work and living with some distant relatives. If it's to get enough fresh air just send her to some boarding schol in Switzerland. Second: how can Birdy be used as bait when she just happened to visit weeks/month after the incident.

Felt bad for Sayaka for not only losing her grandfather and having to move out of town, but also being an outcast at her new place. Well at least her relatives are becoming kinder towards her. That marionette really looked similiar to Motoko Kusanagi.
