Story

Pros: Relaxing and Enjoyable | Character development | side story

Cons: -

This is an OVA that strongly recommended to those who completed the 49episodes TV series. Rather than fan service content which nowadays OVA always have.. This 3episode OVA are focus on the background of the characters. Definitely increase the fun of watching Macross 7.

I’ll have it rated: 33.5/40

Animation

Studio: Studio Nue

Year: 1995

Type: OVA

Pros: Constant quality

Cons: OVA should have better animation quality than TV series

Well, it’s 90s anime, I guess everything just average. The only disappointment is, it is OVA, and I thought there would be a lot of difference and improvement with the TV series.

I’ll have it rated: 23/30
