Nagi & Tsugimi goes (bra) shopping and work in a maid cafe all in one episode!?

While Zeroblade and Ghostlightning had the Lucky Star OP and just Lucky Star respectively, I chose to stick with the OVA (that and the fact that I watched LS back in 2007).

The OVA is just like one long episode of Lucky Star. It needs no further explanation. Read the rest of this entry »

Because we all know Tomoyo > Nagisa

That and it wouldn’t be Chirstmas without some KyoAni sad girl in snow.
