In my case it was because I watched the OVAs that I decided to watch the movie... And read the manga (Which by the way is a different story so you can read it before watching the movie without spoiling yourself)

I'm still waiting for the second Memoir OVA...

typhonsentra · 2010-10-06, 02:47

Having finally seen this movie I was.... not impressed.

JokerD · 2010-10-10, 03:02

Nice, glad I picked this up. The drama so sometimes overblown but I do think overall it was very good. Miu started out as a b***h but eventually got better, too bad for Nanase though. What was that other guy for? He barely did anything

Glad I watch until after the credits, at least they gave us some closure to chew on.

chadrew · 2010-10-16, 20:08

It was a pretty sweet movie, although not entirely what I expected. Miu made it a lot of darker and more disturbing, I thought it would be a sappy love story at the beginning.

Anyway, near the end I was pretty disappointed, because

The second Memoire OVA is out. This episode helped me understand Miu a little better, however, my opinion on her hasn't changed one bit. In fact, I hate her even more.

Spoiler:

FireChick · 2010-11-27, 07:49

I saw the second Memoire OVA and...okay. MUST. KILL. MIUUUUUUUU!!!!

But I will admit, the ED song for this one was just absolutely beautiful!

Shiki Nanaya · 2010-12-02, 20:14

Wow! I love this series! It is awesome! I was touched by this awesome series! I read the mangas, watch the ovas, and now the movie. Lol I didnt know the order to watch it. Oh well, I love the movie! Touko X Konoha FTW! All the WAY!

By the way, guys or gals who have read the novels, please spoil me (and the rest of us) if the novels ending makes it clear who Konoha ends up with?

Spoiler for Movie Ending:

However any concrete evidence like from its original source the novels are greatly welcomed, so please tell us if the movie (specifically its ending) was faithful to the novels, or was the novel different? Did they actually mention who he ends up with ?

About the novel's ending, it's also stop at his new publisher's came to his door but...

Spoiler for little explanation:

Kanon · 2011-01-08, 12:38

Third and final OVA is out.

Spoiler for Third OVA:

Master_Yoma · 2011-01-08, 22:34

What great ovas and movie some one need to pick these up

Nanase looks just so cute in that kimono

Haak · 2011-01-20, 10:20

I finally got round to watching it all. I thought the film was okay but to be honest it was irritating what little they were giving at the start and it was kinda boring. It did get better as I went a long though. The Memoire's were great, perhaps even better than the film. That single OVA though was kinda pointless...

I'm actually surprised there are people that hate Miu. Honestly I couldn't find it in myself to hate her one bit. Just pity her. That poor girl needs help, not hate. Which is why it's a little strange how an epiphany therapy in the film suddenly cures her deep-seated psychological problems. Where are all the real therapists when you need them?

I did manage to hate her mother though...

And in the end they still never explained what the deal was with Touko and why she ate books. Wouldn't that cause massive stomach problems?

It would probably to most peoples... but her and her father are fine.

MrTerrorist · 2011-01-23, 10:50

I just downloaded the movie and the 3 OVAs.
So which should i watch first, the movie or the OVAs?

That's a very good question. I'd say the order doesn't matter except for Miu's OVA (the second) which spoils a lot of the movie's plot.

Haak · 2011-01-23, 16:13

I would recommend watching the first (Touko) and third (Nanase) memoire's before moving on to the film. And then watch the second memoire last. (Kanon's right. It does spoil a lot of the film's revelations)

I think if i watched it in that order, I would've enjoyed it a lot more.

Reckoner · 2011-01-23, 16:16

Personally the way I was left wondering about the character's relations in the movie was really nice. I prefer watching all 3 OVA's later.

I agree with Haak.

The movie's been sitting on my hard drive for ages, but I watched it and the Memoires today in the order you suggested. Definitely glad I read your post first - watching all the Memoires either before or after the movie just wouldn't have been as satisfying. Thank you!

According to Wikipedia:

Quote:

A bonus original video animation (OVA) titled Book Girl Today's Snack: First Love ("文学少女"今日のおやつ〜はつ恋〜, Bungaku Shōjo Kyō no Oyatsu: Hatsukoi) was bundled with a limited edition version of the second side story novel volume Book Girl Apprentice's Heartbreak ("文学少女"見習いの、傷心, Bungaku Shōjo Minarai no, Shōshin) sold on December 26, 2009. The OVA was produced by the same staff as the anime film.

I haven't watched it myself, but there's a spoilerific summary here.

Anyway, near the end I was pretty disappointed, because Spoiler for w: ...it looked like Touko and Inoue are separating for good. But then he kissed her (way to go ) and the scene after the credits made it for me. I assume that woman who's face wasn't shown is Touko?

Shiki Nanaya Member Join Date: Jun 2007	Question to all Novel readers of Bungaku Shoujo out there! Wow! I love this series! It is awesome! I was touched by this awesome series! I read the mangas, watch the ovas, and now the movie. Lol I didnt know the order to watch it. Oh well, I love the movie! Touko X Konoha FTW! All the WAY! By the way, guys or gals who have read the novels, please spoil me (and the rest of us) if the novels ending makes it clear who Konoha ends up with? Spoiler for Movie Ending: I know that the ending credits makes sense that it is Touko who shows up in front of Konoha's apartment (Im guessing that he wrote the novel for her and made it so that she is the author? or something?) cuz his sister was eagerly waiting for "Inoue Miu" whom she wonders if she will take a liking to her, which Konoha reassures that she will. At first I thought that maybe it might be (Miu asakura ) but with his beginning quote in the beginning of the movie when he met Touko for the first time, which was shown here in the ending as well, it would logically make sense to us that it is indeed Touko for she is the only reason why he would write again. However any concrete evidence like from its original source the novels are greatly welcomed, so please tell us if the movie (specifically its ending) was faithful to the novels, or was the novel different? Did they actually mention who he ends up with ?

Spoiler for little explanation: there's more detail on the novels; you learn a little about the situation of the most recuring cast ( Miu, Chia, Nanase, Ryuuto, Kazuji and Maki ) and Tooko 6 years after. __________________

Kanon Kana Hanazawa ♥ Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: France Age: 37	Third and final OVA is out. Spoiler for Third OVA: That was a very enjoyable watch. I had no idea Nanase was such a hardcore tsundere. Although I usually like my tsunderes, I have to say she was a bit too much for my tastes. I ended up liking her little friend more, she was so much fun! __________________
