Great review, Rogie! ^___^ I've really enjoyed this anime, as well and still need to finish watching it. However, it has been one of the most fun anime I've seen. From what I have seen, I think you hit the nail on the head in your review.

[Rogie]

Thanks, guys! I appreciate it.

I loved your review of Comic Party, I bought the first volume but I never got around to buying the rest of them, I might go do that.

Oh, as an extra bit of info, there was an OVA of Comic Party released in Japan, called Comic Party Revolution. It's about 4 episodes I think. I haven't really seen it, so I really don't know the content.

[Rogie]

Thanks! Actually, I think that the 4 mini-episodes I mention in the review are that OVA, and they were probably released along with the Japanese release of the DVDs (which was substantially larger -- something like 7 or 8 discs for 13 episodes!), which would still make them OVA material, instead of TV episodes. Someone may need to clarify that, but all I've found is the TV series and the mini-episodes.

This review has inspired me to add this to my list of must sees. Thanks for the review.

I saw the first few episodes. It was hilarious.

I could understand that you think the mini episodes are the OVA, I've seen the ep on that dvd. I looked Comic Party Revolution up, this looks different, because the fansubs on AnimeSuki popped up in my Google Search. I'm not suggesting anyone should go download it, but if it's on AnimeSuki, it's unliscensed material.

Yeah, I did a little searching of my own, and Comic Party Revolution is an OVA separate from the TV series. In fact, according to AniDB (a search result), the OVA is closer to the manga and features Kazuki and others in college, whereas the TV series has them in high school. The way they talk, it also seems to be more closely related to the hentai game.

So, if it ever does get licensed, it will probably be one to avoid, since it tells the story a different way and probably with far more objectionable content. But that's just an early guess.

I'll agree with you there, looking at it, it might relate more to the h-game. It's still good to keep people informed, especially what to maybe avoid. They could buy on impulse and get something they didn't expect.
