main cast
* Based on a manga series written and illustrated by Wakaki Tamiki, serialised in Weekly Shounen Sunday.
Chihiro forms a rock band with her friends Elsie, Ayumi and Miyako. But their music is horrible and needs more practice, so Elsie suggests forming a light music club and getting their own club room, to which they agree. However, Kodama-sensei refuses the formation of any new clubs and gives them a challenge: if all of them can get a perfect 100% score on their next English term test, they will get the approval to form their club. Disheartened the girls are about to give up when the appearance of the nation-wide idol Kanon leads to a new development. Overjoyed about her classmates being interested in music, she reveals to be the guest star of the upcoming Mai-High dance festival. At that moment Chihiro's competitiveness is sparked and she declares that the band will be competing against Kanon at the school festival.
But there is still one problem. How are the girls supposed to improve their grades in such a short time and get their own club room for practice? It is time for the god who always scores perfect grades to fulfil a promise he made with a girl who was about to give up once already.
Note: Bundled with the DVD-Pack Edition of the manga's volume 14.

Nothing really happens in this OVA, just more content for the fans of this anime.

You need to watch this one before the 3rd season since it's part of the story. Nothing special, but still interesting to watch.

It's more or less the first part of the bridge episode for what is about to come in the season 3. The thing is that it was kinda...out of place. You suddenly get to see some of Keima's conquered girls and without context you delve into a story of how they started a band. As a standalone this has nothing to give but if you are a fan of the series you will be content with the contents that you get from this ova while at the same time it will make you anticipate the next season.

If you like the feelings that TWGOK make you feel, than you have to watch this OVA: one thing always made me think about how Keima feels when he meets all the girls he has captured... and this OVA give me the answer!

For fans of the series, which does not mean it's bad. As it was actually a major turning point in the manga, I was surprised to see it released in such an easy-going manner. Still worth the watch imo.

main character
300, female, bloodtype: O, , blue eyesThis character has blue-colored eyes., bokeA boke is a comedy duo stock character in a traditional Japanese slapstick stand-up comedy style known as manzai. Boke characters are the air-headed, simple-minded, and often excitable half of the unit; their down-to-earth counterparts are the tsukkomi characters. Their approximate equivalent in Western culture is the comedy role of funny man., broomA domestic utensil with fibers bound together at the end of a long handle, used for sweeping. Brooms are frequently associated with witches, which they use for flying., demonIn Western lore, demons are often described as minions from Hell, generally known to attack humans and feast on their flesh or possess the bodies of those with weak souls. In Eastern lore, on the other hand, they are generally supernatural, often but not always malevolent beings who can be more mischievous than actually evil, or simply supernatural spirits of no specific alignment., ponytailA ponytail is a hairstyle in which most or all of the hair on the head is gathered and secured at the back of the head with a hair tie, clip or similar device, and allowed to hang freely from that point., sandalsA shoe with open-work upper or no upper, fastened with straps., taremeTareme is a style of drawing eyes where they droop or sag, resulting in a weak, gentle look. Typically, a moe character will have those definitive, sympathy-magnet puppy-dog eyes. A character with tareme is usually considered gentle, kind, or soft. The opposite is tsurime., transfer studentA transfer student is a student who changes from one institution or course to another at the same level. Their arrival, when not at the beginning of the school year, tends to cause a stir.

Unlike a genius, the clever person may be skilled, but only mundanely so, and in contrast to a cunning person, a clever person is not characterized by being sly or apt at surreptitiousness., glassesGlasses (also called eyeglasses or spectacles) are frames bearing lenses worn in front of the eyes, normally for vision correction, eye protection, or for protection from UV rays. For practical tagging purposes, sunglasses should not be considered glasses; the "glasses" tag is specifically about the type that doesn`t block light. However, a character who wears prescription glasses with dark lenses or who wears both eyewear types should take both tags., humanModern humans are the only extant members of the subtribe Hominina. Together with chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans, they are part of the family Hominidae.
