Happy Lesson: The Final #1

   Happy Lesson in a nutshell: Random loser guy is an orphan, at least
   until five of his schoolteachers move in with him and decide to be his
   mother. Each of the teachers represents one of the Bishoujo food
   groups. Although nothing much happens in the romantic direction, as
   they are more mothers than girlfriends. His sisters also sometimes
   show up. I didn't like the first OVA series (watchable), but I thought
   the two TV series were at least okay.

   One of my big complaints was that the TV series never did change much,
   so we were left with a sort of muted plot (with a sort of muted
   animation). The first of the new OVA series promises to change that,
   with a major plot twist at the end that could actually shake things
   up.

   I'll call this OVA okay, since I'm wary, but that's because it's only
   the first in what could potentially be a good OVA story. There's no
   point in watching it if you haven't seen the rest of Happy Lesson (or
   at least the TV shows), though.
