The first episode of the new Mai-Otome OVA series is pretty darn good. Sunrise has got this whole drama-comedy hybrid formula perfected.<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Animation is OVA quality and significantly better. Soundtrack seems to be the same, except for the new theme song. (Crap BTW.) The episode starts with the Meister Otomes gathering in space to destroy an incoming asteroid and ends off with a mysterious attack on the academy by an unknown invader. In between, we have neko ramen, teenage quarrels, Shizuru in swimsuit, and a taiyaki thrown in for good measure.<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nIn the year AD 2101…<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\n…War was beginning<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nDoesn’t this remind you of a
certain meme<\/a>?”<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nHer mother was hotter<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nLens flare!<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nArinko, save us!<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\n…from the Engrish!<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nMore Shizuru-oneesama please!<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nPlease don’t feed the
Fat Taiyaki Fangirl<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nkuroitani<\/em> is now nekogamisan<\/em>? The old name was cooler<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\n“I want one thiiiis long.”<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\n“Is there actually cat meat in this ramen?”<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nHer robed form never ceases to amaze…<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nBrooms are multi-purpose weapons of self defence<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nMai has more airtime in this episode than in the entire TV series<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nStill alive<\/p>\n

\"Mai-Otome
\nHer too<\/p>\n

This episode needs more Nao and more Shizuru.<\/p>\n

P.S. I can’t believe that her name is actually Lena and not Rena. WTF!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
