The OVA is nice as an extra after watching at least season one. Recommended for those who did and liked it. Otherwise it's rather pointless, now that the actual series is out.

Most kinds of swimsuit reveal a large portion of the body surface area.

One-off appearances of characters in swimsuits should not be tagged., tailThe tail is the section at the rear end of an animal`s body; in general, the term refers to a distinct, flexible appendage to the torso.
