Nov 30, 2020 WELL, it is again OVAs from one the best Shonen Anime series. Before we start, i want to mention, what is the best time to watch which episode, so that you may enjoy the whole Fairy Tail series to the fullest.
To describe "Special" and OVA, we need to describe what's "normal" anime. Special (aka TV Special) is not weekly. Usually yearly or one shot. It's have only one episode but it's have longer length (ex 2 hours). It's still intended for broadcast. Need to meet broadcast code. OVA is created for selling (by Video or DVD). It's intended to the small number of viewer without advertisement. It means more otaku friendly theme. No need to follow broadcast code. It's OK to have hard violence scene. But, in recent time, some OVA was broadcasting with censorship. On the other hand, some TV series is on air with censorship, and selling DVD (or BD) without censorship version. The boundary became ambiguous. Other category is anime movie which is intended to show in theater. Anime movie is between special and OVA. The anime Lupin the Third has all TV series version, OVA, Anime movie and TV Special. In this case, special version is yearly release. Does anyone know at what point in the series I should watch the movie and OVAs? Does it make a difference to the plot, even? |
