Thread: Mai-Otome Zwei

    Mai-Otome Zwei

    Promo of the OVA out by Karehi:
    http://karehi.edwardk.info/%5BKarehi...5D.avi.torrent

    One year after the events of Mai-Otome, an asteroid on a collision course with Windbloom kingdom is destroyed - barely - by an international task force of Meister Otome. Subsequently a new and more powerful kind of Slave appears, along with a sinister black-robed entity - or entities - able to easily overpower the most powerful of Meisters. Not only this, but Arika and Mashiro's troubled relationship is hindering the use of the Sapphire of Azure Sky - possibly the one weapon powerful enough to defeat this new adversary.

    You posted the same synopsis twice or I guess copied and pasted.

    Looks alright.

    The most essential and important information was saved for the very last seconds, naturally:

    Looks very sweet. Added to calendar. Can't wait.
    Don't believe in yourself, believe in me, who believes in you.

    It's not November anymore, but finally it's here. Let's rejoice!

    Episode 1 - Doremi-OTOME

    Edit: It was some heavy action. And a really overpowering enemy. And true to the ova traditions, fanservice can always be a bit more... generous than in aired stuff. Still, this is no amaenaideyo, of course.

    All in all it was very interesting and looked promising indeed. Some parts were a bit on the cliched side of the traditional themes, but on the other hand no more so than I'd have expected. Plenty of funny transformations, naturally, in any case.

    Yes, More Shizuru-nee! The rest of the OVA looks good too but still...Shizuru.

    Best Shizuru Moment: 09:52
    Worst Shizuru Moment 15:52 (though I wouldn't mind having one of those myself)

    Anyway, the fanservice was certainly more...prominent as Kraco said, but the action was great too, and I'm interested in what will happen next beyond just wanting to see Shizuru some more, so I'd call it a success.

    Good part:
    Excellent Ova. Great animation. Good fanservice. More Mai action. Zwei Materialize was indeed interesting (although it already appeared on the series, yet it did not have a name then).
    Evil part:
    The synopsis Bud posted a while ago doesn't match.
    Damn 2nd ova wont come out until February.
    If this tendence (sp?) is kept up... 3rd will be out June and the last one on September -_-

    Was I the only one who thought Chie's Magician Robe suited her perfectly? Kinda manish, but still mysterious and classy.

    It didn't really seem like the story went anywhere otherwise, this was pretty much a Haruka episode. Not that that's a problem, I love Haruka, but with the huge cliffhanger that was the first episode, I was expecting some answers. The evil Meister's similarity to Shinso-sama didn't come off as much of an answer to me.

    Tomoe has obviously been relegated to the humiliating villain role. I do wonder where Nina will tie into all this.

    Aye. The story hardly went anywhere. And moreover, I don't really see even the whole point of the bulk of this episode. They used all too much time for a few bonehead bus hijackers. I think they could have cut half of this episode away without losing anything at all.

    And there wasn't even any fanservice...

    Well, at least Nina is back. Lets hope she will kick ass. At least she should have attitude for that if she regains her spirit.

    I thought it was pretty good, I don't know what the story is, but I'm not really looking for it, I'm happy enough just seeing all my old friends again. Chie's hat magic was unespected and very cool, and Haruka's badassness was once again top notch. She was still fighting AND talking smack after being sliced in half, lasered through the torso and turning to stone.

    In other news...WTF, Ghost of Shinso can turn things into stone?!?!

    Nice episode. But that was the problem. It felt like an episode, not like a big budget OVA (dunno if it isn't, but ova's should be... at least that is what is expected).

    First OVA was amazing... this one was... meh... good for an tv episode.

    Lets wait another 3 months for next ova.

    Mai Otome Zwei - 03 - [Static Subs]

    Note: Massive fanservice, this should not be watched in the presence of judgemental people.

    Downloading now.
    Will re-download if Doremi releases its version though.
    Thanks Yuki.

    EDIT:
    Watched. Very good ova. 1000 times better than last one.
    But... I feel there is still too much to do, with only one ova left.
