This. The last sentence "I go up the stairs" was probably my favorite in the whole OVA.
The first part (Tsukihi) was the weakest part, although I wouldn't outright say it was bad. I actually kind of liked the dialogue itself, it was just the weird imouto-fanservice that turned me off (especially Karen).
The rest of the OVA was enjoyable for me. Sometimes when I read people's opinions comparing the "sequel" animes with Bake, I can't help but think that Bake was hyped too much. Was is really that good? Yeah, it was better, I agree, but was it really
that much better than Nise or Neko-Kuro?
I can't make judgments based on the LNs (just reading Kizu now), but for the anime adaptions, while Nise felt way worse (content-wise) than Bake to me, Neko wasn't all that bad. I seriously think some people are ruining their own enjoyment of the series by putting Bake on a pedestal. Bake was pretty good, but that's it.
