|  "Nakoruru OVA review"
, posted Fri 21 Jun 14:12
Well, I'm sure some of you people wanted to know what Nakoruru - Ano Hito Kara no Okurimono is like. Well, here's my review. I'll use a similar format to the one I have been using when I reviewed games. Enjoy!
Nakoruru - Ano Hito Kara no Okurimono came out last month. So far, only one of six OVA's is out. This is based on the PC and DC Nakoruru adventure game, a game I haven't played yet. Hopefully, I'll get the opportunity to do so.
Art - 9
For the most part, the art is pretty decent. Well, it depends on your tastes. I like what I see here overall.
What are the flaws? If you're a Samurai Spirits fan, you will be surprised with Rimururu. You might think, "That's not Rim-chan," but yeah, it is her. Also, I don't know why, but Nakoruru wears her alternate chivalry outfit. A fan of Nako-chan will be surprised by this also.
Story - 8
It follows a game. Nakoruru has these visions. They show what happens if she stops fighting. There's a dark side of Nakoruru, or at least, that's what I think. It's best if you have played the game first.
Audio - 10
The music is pretty good. You have your fair share of bright and dark music. The song sung by Manari is good. Of course, this would never be a Nakoruru anime without Shizen no Utage/Silent Hill. Can you imagine watching this anime without ever having to hear that song? No. (If you don't know by now, that's the name of her theme song, heard in various Samurai Spirits games.)
The voice acting is fine. The Ainu sisters kept their seiyuu from the later Samurai Spirits games. Koyasu Takehito even plays as a character here - Yantamuu.
The sound effects are natural. I have no complaints. Let's carry on.
Fun - 7
If you're going to expect cameos, you're going to be let down. There's no Haohmaru, Shizumaru or even Galford. Gee. I thought Galford and Nakoruru made a kawaii couple.
Anyway, if you have played the game, you know what to expect. If you haven't, then you probably won't get all of the excitement.
There's some bright moments and some dark moments. If you're wondering, yes, Nakoruru does show some skin. There's a moment Yantamuu saw Nakoruru's bust and Rimururu froze him.
Rewatch - 8
If all OVA's are out, its magic will last for a while, but who knows how long?
Overall - 8
Well, the Nakoruru OVA series got off to a solid start. I have to see the next episode. I hope this series gets better later on.
+ Decent artwork, audio, and the fun are the great factors of the anime.
0 Story is decent if you have played the game, but hard to cope up with if you haven't.
- There are minor art flaws like Rimururu's look and the series's life expectancy is a question mark.
