Overall Rating 5.3 out of 10 - It majorly betrays your expectations compare to original.
I can only somewhat recommend middle episode alone.
Unfortunately, this OVA is not faithful to the original at all. It has three episodes in total.
First is about robot maid. I had high hopes for it, it mostly was about Tamaki's violence against Yuuji
Second was relatively better. Finally, mostly the best of the original cast and on the beach with swimsuits. Here however it still feels that new studio got characters wrong. They all are much less modest and humble compared to the original.
Final episode is about new Mary Sue type addition to the cast. Girl by herself is not too bad, but it was rather unpleasant how they wanted to trump up her credentials at expense of Manaka and the others.
Overall, there is clearly a different vibe to this show compared to the original. Original was much cozier, kinder and warmer. In episodes with its better characters, it managed to create a good atmosphere in which one can feel comfortable to interact with a girl. Here things are too chaotic and harsh to enjoy it.
Girls are supposed to be soft, cozy and comfortable if I am to like them. This OVA fails to realize this fact.
So, I cannot recommend it, with exception of possibly middle episode on the beach.
