Great return to the past, it shows how The Paper meats Nancy, and what trial they had to overcome. Also it shows how Nancy lost her memory.
If you liked the first series this is a good way to find out more.

I loved this series. The idea of a bookworm man character kicking so much ass is pretty refreshing. The OVA did have some hint of a sexual tension in a few scenes, but nothing overt, which was great. This series was quite different to me because the main character is neither perfectly independent nor truly helpless, which makes for a believable heroine. Great story and relatable characters.

At first I wasn't sure to make of this Anime, but once I got into it i couldn't stop watching. Yomiko Readman takes a little getting used to as she seems completely disassociated with the world around her, but as the plot progresses she show a strength of will that is truly impressive

Definitely worth watching! And once you are done with the OVA's you absolutely have to follow up with the full season of the anime!!!
