And now back to the anime reviews. This time around it's an OVA from Utawarerumono called Lullaby of the Watch Tower and even though I only watched an episode of the series that this is from I happened across it while cruising around Sankaku Complex and saw their little blurb about the upcoming OVA. Of course they focused on the Fanservice of the show and I do have to admit that it does indeed have a fair bit of nice fanservice. With that of course it piqued my interest a bit so I decided to check it out.
The OVA focuses on Urutori caring for a lost baby and all is a good light hearted affair until the parents come to take the baby back. All hell breaks lose when Urutori takes off with the kid since she's grown attached to the child and doesn't want to give it up. She goes so far as to even attack her friends who came to get her and the child. She does some serious ass kicking until the baby that she is protecting starts to cry which brings her back to reality. With that she decides that the baby should go back to it's original parents and all is back to happy go lucky time.
In addition to the OVA there is also a picture drama that goes along with it that takes place during the same time but shows Urutori telling about how she and her close friend who she had to fight in the OVA became such close friends after getting in a fight when they were younger.
All in all it was a fun little OVA to watch. Nice little bit of fanservice some cute comedy and at the end a good deal of fightin' action to round it all up into a nice little 30 minute adventure into the series. I didn't even realize after watching it that it's actually a three part OVA but I figured I'd blog about it anyways. Now it's off to Netflix to see if they have the series to rent in the mean time how about you check out the preview for the OVA.
