About Maken-Ki! OVA

Meet Maken-Ki! OVA (マケン姫っ！ OVA), an action and ecchi anime by Xebec and AIC Spirits (2012). Here is the premise in a nutshell. At its core: OVA episodes bundled with the 8th and 11th volumes of the manga.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Takeru Ooyama (Tomoaki Maeno) and Haruko Amaya (Noriko Shitaya) are two of the characters you will meet early.

This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 2 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Xebec and AIC Spirits, which means the visual identity of Maken-Ki! OVA follows that studio's craft. The action focus matters here: fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. With a 6.2/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. On the casting side, Tomoaki Maeno voicing Takeru Ooyama gives the lead role a recognizable voice. Released in 2012, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
