Well, um...
This is a three episode OVA about some guy with a mysterious dark past at his school, so he winds up going to his Mother's old school for his senior year. The catch is that it's an all girls school so he must play the part. What plays out is a very by the books and perfunctory story with no real surprises. The boy plays the part of the perfect girl, so perfect in fact that the school lesbian picks out that he isn't a girl at all.
Another very dry episode of solemn drama, quiet thank yous, subtle romance, and high school girl tension. This episode introduces new hitches rather than resolving the old ones strangely enough for the limited time the OVA has. An antagonist of sorts is introduced who stands at odds with the main group of girls. Unfortunately her foul temper is further incensed by misfortune as another dark secret past slowly unravels once more for the series. It's hard to feel particularly invested in the episode at any point as the story fails to really establish themes upfront, but it hits its dramatic scenes well enough to create a certain atmosphere of sadness across the whole episode.
In the episode's foreground is a competition for music ensembles is being held, and most of that stuff is again handled in a fairly plain manner regarding music choices, and lazy blocking in frames often obscures sections of instruments to limit animation (this is Silver Link after all). There is an incredibly effective and evocative scene where the use of instruments helps add something to the production, and some good white noise laying shows up to assist in effectively creating an uncomfortable sensation to one scene.
This episode was a better self contained story than the first, but with only one episode remaining it is difficult to imagine things appropriately coming to a close in any meaningful manner. As an outlet for fairly tactful drama you could do worse I suppose.
A foolish question, you can choose both!
Ultimadrago... I feel like a huge dick for doing this right after talking to you. But you made me think of Nichijou again, so I had to take a second and sketch something before bed. I'll probably do a finished version later when I find the time to do so <3 Yuuko
I'm thinking those are probably Mio's saucy yaoi drawings. Mio is really my bro, I could just hang out with her and draw smut all day long. What a girl.
I mean, Guineas gets so pissed that his collar and hair rise on their own through the sheer force of his rage.
So
Yes I switched to MPC now, yes it likes to take screens like this deal with it.
Stop what?dude
dude
stop it
dude
dude
stop it
... The best way?
I use fraps to take screens so that's partially the cause for this. The other being that MadVR renders blends its output with a black background and the subtitle renderer is separate and is overlayed as if it were a 1080p video. Which breaks screens with fraps. (and using MPC's screen function is annoying and I can't get it to work anyway.)
