I thought this was a very good Ova series. The animation, characters, sound, and everything was so good and overall it was very enjoyable.
The Ova focuses on the side story of the manga, called "Yusaku's Island" (only the ova is called Deserted Island), and it's about Godai, Kyoko, and the gang having a good time on Mitaka's boat until something happens (thanks to the crazy tenants who just can't live without causing trouble or drinking booze all day). Anyways, the gang ends up stranded on an island and thinks of ways to survive and get help from traveling boats and stuff.
the animation was really good

This OVA is just 23 minutes long. So it's like a standard Maison Ikkoku episode.
The story is about what you'll read in the synopsis. It's bonkers. This takes place in the very early first quarter of MI (Mitaka is still afraid of Soichiro). But it actually feels more like a Urusei Yatsura episode except with Maison Ikkoku characters! You'll know what I mean if you watched both... Can't believe I almost got duped by the last 5 minutes thinking this actually takes place after the last episode of the series. The animation kinda feels off even by 1991 standards... But at least the abominable artstyle ... |
