Saikano: Another Love Song Review

Overall Raing 5.6 out of 10 - A retconned insert an anti-Chise for different tastes in women.

I guess you can try this is you do not find Chise attractive.

This is a parallel OVA that introduces a new female protagonist and inserts her into original story.

Mizuki is a human weapon just like Chise. However, personality wise she is basically anti-Chise. I guess those who do not find Chise like girls attractive wanted their own weapon girl.

Compared to the original, this OVA somewhat retcons Chise and Tetsu. Around half of screen time is used for Mizuki's exposition and the rest is to connect her to the original story. Sometimes these efforts look ham-fisted.

Overall, however its watchable. Chise still gets good amount of screentime, she is somewhat different but not too much. Mizuki is not my type, but I do not hate her as say Flay from Gundam SEED. 

I guess if hard women are your thing, then you can watch it. I prefer Chise like girls.
