The first episode of the new Mai-Otome OVA series is pretty darn good. Sunrise has got this whole drama-comedy hybrid formula perfected.
The upcoming OVA series Mai-Otome Zwei will be here 24th November. The limited edition Vol.1 will come with a special packaging, a CD with the theme song and a Mai-Otome illustration book. Most of the press release is recycled news, but it does reveal the title of the new theme song. The story takes place one [...]

The latest issue of Newtype also contains a three-page advertisement for Mai-HiME and Mai-Otome.
