Needless to say, If you liked the TV series, you're gonna love this one. The main advantage of watching anime movies and OVAs is that as opposed to a full size TV series, the animators have substantially less episodes and scenes to spend their budget on, and as a result, you will not see any of the recycled or simplified animation sequences you see in anime sometimes.
What this means to you, is that when you watch My-Otome Zwei (Being an OVA), you will enjoy an all-new story, featuring the characters you already know and love (not to mention the same wonderful sountrack from My-Otome/My Hime), plus the added bonus of a markedly more fluid, lively animation, and much more solid, more dynamic battle sequences; all of this ultimately makes the characters and the story feel even more captivating and full of life than before, and thus it makes the experience much more enjoyable.
In short, you'll have everything you already like and more.

I was very frustrated that there wasn't even an editorial review for this product but I decided to take a chance. I was very satisfied. If you are a fan of the My-Z-Hime series, this is great. The same characters in 4 episodes a year after the Windbloom City battle a new mysterious enemy appears. That's all the story I'll give you but these episodes provide some good closure and "what happened to the characters after" to the original series. I only gave it 4 stars because they went on the cheap with the artwork for some of the minor characters, all the suviving Schwartz (pardon the spelling, I didn't check it)that still have a crystal to call a "child" have plain black face masks with yellow eyes.

I like this series and this one is no different.
The only thing I ran into was that this disk would not load right or play on my Philips DVD player. This may be due to the player but I suggest that one checks your player brand name first. I have two copies of this DVD and neither one of them would load or play. I've had this problem with one or two other titles. I don't believe it's the DVD as they all play on a Magnavox DVD recorder and JWin player I have. Watch out for this though.
As for the contend......Great!

Everything went swift and smoothly. I received the items only a few days after placing the order and in pristine condition. I only have one to say: "Thumbs Up!" .

For those who wonder what happened to the Archduke or how the unification of the several countries went... one item to buy. ^^

I enjoyed this Anime collection very much. You can find other reviews that will tell you all you could want to know about the story and content. So in summation it was amusing and enjoyable.
Buy it used. One story that ties togather a few loose ends from the two series, My Z-Hime and My Hime, is not worth full price in my opinion.
